Patient Reviews
Dec 19, 2023
I am so disappointed that the doctor refused me an appointment. I suffer greatly with neuropathic chronic pain due to chemo causing progressive damage to the body neuropathic system. I need help, as my ability to move is declining, mostly alone a recluse, and need to pay others to perform everyday tasks, driving no longer, groceries delivery, house cleaning, and other things. I've been falling more, twice this week, brusing ribs, agravating nerve root impacted by bone on top, I'm hunched, curvature greater, and if I don't get quality care for myself, I fear falling and being found dead on the floor. My leg muscles so weak I'm not able to get up from sitting, squating positions, I fell out of bed and was contortionist for over an hour to free myself, He is the best specialist and he apparently listens to patients, rare, as most treat medicare as if a string of paper dolls. Please reconsider the choice made, for either stigma or my inability to communicate, Alone wo anyone cares.
