Wish the provider had prepared a little better for my appt. She initially told me I did not have a diagnosis that I was recently given, which took me aback a little. After talking more, she began to do some reading/research on my recent test results and looked at notes from other doctors before conceding that I do indeed have the diagnosis I was given. I appreciated her being willing to learn more and admit she was wrong but wish she had done that prep before.

Once that doctor came in she was very apologetic for being so long with her other patient and then took very good care of me. Was it worth the wait that long? Meh, I wouldn't say it was for that long, but she was very caring. She put a name to what was going on with me unlike the ER did. I would rather try to get in to see my normal doctor.
