The doctor who "examined" me seemed utterly bored to be there. He just sat in a chair and gave me commands to move. I had xrays and an MRI and based on our conversation I don't think anybody even reviewed them. I waited weeks for an appointment, had xrays and an MRI, and then he spends like two minutes with me and looks like he's rather be having a root canal the entire time.
After he left the examination room I thought my appointment was over and I gathered my things and headed to check out. When I got to the desk to check out, they asked me for my paperwork and I said I didn't have any. They scolded me and told me to go back to the examination room and wait for someone to come in with some paperwork. Nobody every told me to wait in the examination room after the doctor left. It was weird.
I was sent to physical therapy and I think they really do try there. There was one physical therapists and a bunch of assistants. The first time you go you work directly with the physical therapist and get evaluated. After that, you work with a physical therapy assistant who might be working with 2 or 3 other patients at the same time. I've seen this at other physical therapy practices, so it's not unique. Gone are the days of one on one physical therapy appointments, let alone with a physical therapist.
I would go to physical therapy again at the CORE Institute, but I wouldn't see a doctor there again.
