Organized and efficient. Unfortunately so efficient I spent a grand total of three minutes with the doctor. I said I know he can't prescribe pain meds, but because I'm in so much pain I am having trouble sleeping I asked the doctor if the joint could at least be drained to relieve the pressure from the massive amount of fluid buildup. He politely said he was not going to do that and I would have to deal with the pain until my next visit. Gee, thanks.
So now I have to go back in a few days for an MRI, then have to go back again a few days after that to have an MRI consultation. When asked if I could do both in one visit they laughed and said "that's not how it works here".
Overall everyone was decent and helpful, but I've never felt more like a number that a patient at a healthcare setting in my life.
