Penelope Gianelli Review of Shands at UF

I waited two weeks for an appointment. The waiting room is over-crowded, messy, noisy, and unpleasant. My doctor was dismissive of my previous treatments and decisions. I've had enough treatments to know there are no absolute answers. As a professional, I expect and appreciate being treated in a cooperative, not authoritative manner. She embarrassed me over a recent 10 pound weight gain (still normal bmi). My physical exam was cursory and incomplete - lymph nodes on only one side were checked with no comparison to the other side or other locations. The report of my visit stated that items were checked which were not - heart and lungs were not listened to (and other things) This is no "destination" hospital, more like a backwoods, regional hospital. Yet the charge for my visit was more than if I had gone to one of the premier doctors in the country!
