| - Why I keep coming back here I cannot fathom. I have had the worst luck with this clinic just in this month alone. I left one sample on July 4th, didn't get a call back until July 15th. Left another sample, no call back after 8 days so I went back on the 23rd and refused to leave until they could tell me what the test results were. Left another sample, called this morning refusing to get off the line until I got some sort of response. Yes, I have another UTI (this is the 3rd in one month) but the test results are not fully in. I was stunned --- today is the 27th, that is 4 days.
Saw a Doctor Goldhar (don't see him, he's the wimpiest doctor ever, preferring to give low-grade medications before actually giving something effective) who prescribed for me Cipro. I asked about an IV antibiotic called Gentimycin, which can be used as a bladder-flush. Oh no I don't feel comfortable prescribing that, he says. My chart indicates that i have used it before, at home .. so I am responsible enough to use the blasted drug.
The doctors at "The Doctor's Office" are hit & miss. Some are reasonable and others you can easily understand why they do not have their own practices -- they would scare off too many patients to turn a decent income. When confronted by a chronic patient who knows her medical history better than a GP it would behoove that GP to actually listen to the patient than to try and talk over her.
I regret going here. I'll probably complain to some authority, and just take my "business" elsewhere like The Albany.
