It was extremely frustrating to me that Dr Seay did not take the time to review my chart before coming in, especially after having waited so long for her to come in the room. she showed very little concern and was not personable at all. She did not know anything about my case.

Everyone was very friendly except Dr Seay. The nurse that took me back to the room, the intern that came in were exceptional. The doctor came in for a brief visit and said nice to meet you. She didn't introduce herself or acknowledge me by name. she seemed very cold. I had just been through a horrific accident and she didn't acknowledge that at all or even seem to care. she spoke mostly to to the intern did her quick exam. Not a doctor who I feel comfortable with or even feel like she cared. No bedside manner.
