The only very minor problem was the doctor had to leave before I got back from radiology. But radiology was very slow so that was not in her control. And, she consulted with me and the nurse who finished my appointment.

This visit wasn't the best experience. The wait time was much longer than normal. And they were working with a student. My issue is more with the student than with my usual provider, though I was frustrated with both. My provider sent the student in to speak to me and start asking questions and assessing why I was there. I felt like the student especially, had made up her mind as to what my problem is and wasn't listening to me as thoroughly as they should have . I felt like walking out at one point. She wasn't out right rude or anything, but I felt like she had made a decision without really listening to everything I had to say about what my symptoms have been. She eventually went and consulted with my provider. They both came back after more waiting, and while my provider did do a basic check up and ask some follow up questions and clarify a few things, I didn't feel very like they were very concerned about my issue and that they were doing the same as the student and making an assumption without really listening to me. I've had better experiences with this provider so perhaps it was an off day. But I do want to be listened to and not be pre-judged because of how I look, which is how I feel this appointment went with the student in particular.
