    I originally made an appointment to be seen for my elbow and shoulder. My elbow was a priority. When the Doctor arrived he spent only five minutes with me. He quickly checked my shoulder's range of motion and when he was leaving I said that I was there primarily to be seen for my elbow. He said no. I can't see you for both things at the same time. You have to make a new appointment. This is outrageous because now I have to wait two more weeks (4 in total since my injury) to be seen for the elbow and I'm in pain but he didn't care.

    Told me I have a stuck shoulder and questioned quality of PT.PT told me they exactly followed his MOON protocol. If there was risk of frozen shoulder he should have seen me weeks ago. Suggested cortisone without explaining that it might help me with PT, I had to research that myself now I don't know how long it will take to get it. I am officially worse now than before I got the surgery. As for referring to others, I emailed them a month ago to review my husband's MRI as he also tore his rotator cuff and they never got back to me.

    The doctor did not seem interested in asking my any questions regarding both of the things I was there for. My elbow I understand is pretty straight forward but my collar bone / shoulder is a major issue and for all of the x-rays we took we did not discuss why it is affecting me, how long I have been dealing with it - was just told "I would recommend PT for this as well". Honestly felt like I was the last patient of the day and the doctor was trying to get out of there ASAP. The PA listened more intently to my issues than the actual doctor. I didn't even get to see any x-rays. Kind of weird and also the energy in the room was OFF. I'm getting a second opinion.
