She hadn't even bothered to check my latest scans and referring to a scan before than. Then when I specifically asked, she just shrugged it away.

Going to a doctor is not fun especially if you're concerned about it being something worse than you thought. My experience was very professional.

We waited for over 1 month to get the appointment. However, the doctor only spent 5 mins to discuss the issue, and kept repeating the same sentence again and again. She was in such a hurry. I was still asking questions, but she already stood up and ready to leave. We waited for a month to visit her but only got 5 mins from her. She was not patient at all. She seemed not care it at all with little exam and little explanation. She kept repeating the same sentence for all my questions without proper explanation.

I didn't care to have a coleague be in the visit but it would have been more awkward to refuse request. Make request known before visit.

Super sweet, love her. But I just felt I wasn't heard because I know something is wrong as it bothers me constantly.

She was completely dismissive of my thoughts and concerns and gave me zero answers or willingness to try and figure out what's going on for me.
