This review is for Noel Chamian. His demeanor is cold and a little off putting. But I got used to that face to face. I continued to see him 4 more times throughout the year.
Unfortunately for me, I had further questions about my recent visit and doubts about a lump appearing in my abdomen. He didn't examine it and down played its appearance as normal and harmless, based on a few more I have in my body, none of which have been tested, ultrasound. But this one in particular is causing me some discomfort. Pain. I have doubts and wanted that one tested, just in case. Wouldn't you?
When I contacted the office requesting tests ------everything got befuddled in the messages back and forth. I asked the staff if Chamian had listened to the message, the staff said he never listens to the messages and he doesn't return calls. Only support staff will relay messages. A doctor that won't call you. OK.
Do I need an ultrasound? Do I need a follow up appointment? Why is this one painful and the others not? I was confused what to do. The girl on the phone said Dr Chamian advised just keep my follow up appointment set for 3 months from now. Let the problem sit for 3 months. O-K...
I said to the staff maybe I need a second opinion then? Somehow they relayed this to the doctor and the staff called back hours later with a message from Chamian "I should seek another doctor" and he cancelled our future appointments.
I have never had a doctor so disinterested.
If I had it do over I would have gone with Francesca not Noel. The staff is friendly and helpful as they can be and she has so many amazing reviews its really hard to believe I have to write this today.
