Meeting with this neurosurgeon was a waste of my time. We were already given the same explanations in the emergency department. Did not learn anything new today. Went in expecting epidural injections and did not happen. Left in pain with no further explanations about what to do for it. Left without an appointment for Injections or physical therapy. Have a follow up with same Physician in four weeks

The DR was very unprofessional, was more concerned with something else then what I was there for. Offered me no treatment except deal with it. I truly think he took one look at my size and said I'm not treating him!
