I felt like my provider was not personable or showed genuine concern for my issue. She did not take time to explain what she wanted to do in order to evaluate the problem and she did not offer compassion when I expressed feeling pain. I left the office without my issue being resolved and I am less inclined to return for further care. I expected the visit to relieve my concern and it unfortunately left me on my own.

I waited in the exam room almost an hour before the exam began. If we can improve on that, then everything will be great.
