For those of you who are unfamiliar with the medication TamiFlu, it is an antiviral medication used to prevent and to treat the flu; it is recommended by doctors for anyone who has the flu, or for anyone who has been in close contact with someone who has the flu. A member of my family got tested for the flu this morning, so I preceded to call Dr. Smith to get a prescription for TamiFlu. His nurse did not return my call until late this afternoon, and then she said that she needed Dr. Smiths approval. She called back at 4:55 saying that he will not be calling in a prescription for Tamiflu and that I needed to make an appointment for Monday. He shows a blantant mis-care (sorry thats not a word) for his patients. He left me on a Friday telling me to make an appointment for Monday so that he can prescribe TamiFLu...by that time I will probably have already gotten sick and therefore have to go pay $1000 to go to the Emergency Room. Please do not go to this doctor--I will never go back to him again..I'm calling on Monday to get a copy of my chart to bring to a doctor who gives a damn!
Cons: Bad Service, Rude Staff, Ignorant Doctors
