Dr. Timothy Eckford, MD

Asked for six months of my meds to help me make it though fire season. He stepped out of the room and placed the order. No questions asked. Found out later he only put in for three months. Irritated I went back to his office asking to speak with him, and via his receptionist I was told he was with a patient. I said I could wait. She said he’d be with patients all day and wouldn’t have the time. Said he’d call at the end of the day. Never got a call, never heard back. He just took my money and ran. Not mad he could only put in for three months, I’m disappointed in his lack of communication skills and inability to explain to me what he was doing. Avoided an uncomfortable conversation by withholding information. Let me find out at the pharmacy that he played me. I’ll probably have to go without my meds now for the second half of fire season. Glad he’s on his way out at the Rural Health Clinic, but also sorry for the next place and their patrons that have him practicing in the
