Marie Hamilton, PA

She doesn't care to hear anything the patient is saying about the appropriateness of testing. She ordered several tests without my consent, which had nothing to do with my symptoms, and caused a lot of financial headache and problems with my significant other. The medical group's depression survey and my written list of symptoms were promptly turned face down when she entered the room. I felt this was about how many tests and procedures she could write up, not about making me an equal, respected partner of my own care team. The licensing board needs to get her out of the healthcare system.

Does not even pretend to care. Read she has walked out on a patient without even telling you the conversation is done. I came in with symptoms of depression after having a panic attack at work and I left crying with no answers or referrals, nothing. She could really cost someone their life. At this point I rather it was me than someone in deeper depression to where they are suicidal because this helplessness I have been feeling was made worse when I need help.

Went to her for evaluation and treatment of EXCRUCIATIN and DEBILITATING back pain. she was cold - poor bedside manner. Seemed to doubt my rating of an 8 on the pain scale. Doubted my answers to her questions about her manipulations of the different pain areas of my back. she left the room. Without informing me prior, her asst. came and gave me injections for pain and inflammation. There was no information in my chart about future directions for care or any medications prescribed.
