The Dr was nice. The visit was fast but I had to spend too much time with a student. I understand, but sometimes it is not efficient for me to talk to 3 different people during the visit. The nurse, the student and finally the Dr.

Provider kept talking about tests done in 2023 that were 100% not related to issue. She also was not listening to the issues u have been having. I also asked about a refill for something prescribed in the past and she dismissed and left the room abruptly. I would not go to the provider again.
