I had lab work done. I thought I was told, I'd get the result through Mychart. it's been over 4 days and I haven't seen any notification. I think it would be helpful to give me a time frame as to when to expect the results.

I normally see Dr. Mastellar, and have always been impressed with his level of care and communication. Dr. Kerr paled by comparison. He slouched in his chair, his legs extended out like he was going to slide out of the seat. I thought that was unprofessional body language, which didn't instill confidence. However, I had a cold that wouldn't go away and figured he knew enough about such a common condition. I basically was there to find out whether it was bacterial and I should be taking antibiotics, or if it was viral and I should be patient. I also hoped he could give me a cough suppressant that would help me sleep. Rather than offering a lot of explanations, I had to ask questions to get information. I felt like he didn't volunteer anything. I asked if he thought it was viral, and he said probably. He typed up a prescription, asking what pharmacy I used. Then he asked if I'd ever had codeine. I had to ask him what that was for. I had to ask what I should do if symptoms didn't subside, and how long I should wait to call the office again. I just felt like he wasn't volunteering anything, and I hoped I was asking the right questions. He did give me information, but only when I asked.

My rotator cuffs in shoulder show bone to bone contact. But, beyond that, why do my shoulders hurt, what about the muscles. What did the neurologist report say in words that I could understand. I would like to schedule another appointment where I have the neurologist report given to Dr. Kerr (technical language) and I can ask Dr. Kerr what is meant by each thing...Info: The neurologist examined mostly my right leg and feet. I feel that Dr Kerr is an Excellent Doctor. I am very glad that he is now my family doctor
