Condescending. She was polite but addressed her resident md with information and left me out of the conversation. Like the diagnosis wasn't mine to know. I was prescribed meds. And told I'd b fine.

I have seen Dr. Tran many times over the past 3+ years.It is very hard to communicate with her. Many times she is walking out the door as I am asking questions. Her retention/review of my situation is very low. Three minutes seems to be all the time she has to explain my very complicated condition.

Dr. Tran is a cornea transplant specialist!! So I was astounded that she would be WILLING to see a CONJUNCTIVITIS patient!! Yet, she was extremely personable, patient & explained what I had carefully as well as the treatment needed to heal!
