This office almost killed me. Plus I entered the hospital Memorial Herman NW Hospital under my own power but discharged on a walker. Diagnosis was my Congestive Heart Failure medicines were over- diagnosed (too strong). The hospital and Dr Kochar (ER) didn't even addressed my fluid retention and swollened ankles when I complained about the condition. I was carried up to Scott & White Hospital in Round Rock, then transferred to Temple. I was immediately referred to a transplant cardioloist and urologist who found that my prostate as holding back fluids. I was diagnosed with end-staged CHF. They catheterized me and drained 1 1/2 quarts of fluid from my body. They also had to bring my PT/INR up to acceptable level. 4 weeks later upon discharge I went from 205 lbs. to 167 lbs. and my ankle returned to their normal size. I complained about the swollened ankles to Dr Morris several times while living in Houston. Scott & White Hospital saved my life. These doctors actually talk with each other. Also they could view my records and treatments with a computer in any Scott & White facility. I'm still on the transplant list, but I can walk and drive again with no trouble.
