God help you if you suffer any pain. They will not take your symptoms seriously and will label you. They will also shame you for asking for help. I have a bulging disc, arthritis in my spine, a fissure, arthritis in my ankles, knees, hips and my face. I also suffer from severe migraines to the point of throwning up. The doctor I saw said all my pain was psyco somatic. Meaning it’s ONLY in my head. ACCUSED me of doctor shopping even though they were the first doctor I had seen aside from being a patient of UNC for NEARLY A DECADE. I wanted to find a kind and compassionate family doctor considering all my health problems. I only received rude and disrespectful comments. They reluctantly said they would refer me to a rheumatologist and an orthopedic surgeon. Doesn’t that just mean I am in pain constantly? I am heartbroken and disappointed that they treat their patients with such cruelty. I will never recommend their office to anyone. You will regret ever going to them in the first place.

I want to talk with him

Too much time spent waiting for test results. Tend to ask questions about meds that he has already said was no longer needed. Less than 30 days I was back in his office with the same respiratory problems. I guess I still need the Inhaler, Advair,etc. I have chronic bronchitis for over 10 yrs. Vyas stated I do not have COPD even though this is the word for word definition. I am not impressed, considering changing physicians. Also Betsy Johnson is known in the Dunn hospital of death. I went to er and was being sent home with bacterial pneumonia, fever in excess of 101, sever cough, and accelerated heart rate, the nurse intervened when I almost passed out and insisted the Dr should admit me. I was hospitalized for two days, told I need to get flu shot yearly and the pneumonia shot because of COPD I had but was not informed of it.

Excellent diagnosis and in house lab and testing facility makes it very convenient.
