Yes, the problem I had was I was hoping to get the gel shot, but they gave me cortisone shot because of something about the insurance issue. I have an extreme bone on bone knee issue, which the doctor saw. So I need to know what I need to do to get the gel shot before paying all that money. Thank you.

Everyone was very friendly and welcoming, including the doctor. My major concern and complaint is only being given a 15 minute block for an appointment. My appointment time went past that 15 minutes allocated and trust me, I felt that "rush" the entire time to get my appointment wrapped up and me out the door. A 15 minute block is not enough time to meet with a nurse and give accurate thorough information about reason for visit, especially if a complex issue. Then in that same expected short 15 minute time frame have 6-8 X-rays, meet with the doctor and once again go over all the details with him about my reason for the visit that I already shared with the nurse, then the doctor explain what is going on with two joints and briefly examine me then answer ALL questions a patient might have about a shocking diagnosis. I was never asked 'do you have anymore questions or concerns' before the door was being opened and doctor was one foot out of the room. It should be noted that there were zero other patients in the office at the time. An employee even came in to the x-ray room for the obvious reason to alert the tech she needs to wrap it up with me. I know that was the purpose for the other employee because no words were spoken but the tech said "We are almost done here". Again, the employees & Dr. I met and talked with very friendly but medical care needs and deserves more than just kindness. Adequate time for appointments, discussion of medical diagnosis and answering patient questions is just as important and kindness.
