Amanda Probasco, PA

I have a history significant for a few medical diagnoses that are absolutely contraindicated in regards to the COVID shot. I had called in to ask for a medical exemption and talked to staff. They informed me that she reviewed my PMH and found that there was nothing in my PMH that would elicit a medical exemption from the COVID shot. It took me a few seconds to find the info online stating to not get the shot based on the diagnoses I have. I then knew I needed to leave to find a practitioner that would actually advocate for me and my health. Very disappointing.

Condescending and rude. Very uncomfortable experience.

My primary Dr moved so I was meeting Probasco for the first time. She stated my previous Dr had discussed some of my history with her, most importantly the immense trauma I had recently been through. I arrive for our meet and greet and the room is set up for a PAP despite the fact I just had one a few months ago. I was told they 'figured they'd get it done since I was here.' I disagree and say I'm not wanting that done today. I get some grief about it, then I'm drilled on my meds despite the fact I've been on them for years-controlled substances, urine checks at random and abusing medication drugs were the highlight of her talking points, despite my having no history of anything. Denied my request for a refill a few days later, nurse says 'she states you never discussed your useage' ???? We met for 15 minutes, I'm prescribed it, if you had any questions that might cause you to block my medical care, maybe you should have asked them at the apt? Nah, just deny my meds, better choice...
