This review is more for Dr. Way, although Acton Med is terrible with follow up. I do blame Acton Med for keeping him on staff. Moving some furniture, I snapped a bicep tendon. The lack of muscle forced my hand up to my shoulder, so my forearm was always in the UP position. I could not put it down, because the muscle was no longer attached to the bone. Any bumping of my arm, or movement at all caused IMMENSE pain, as if getting struck in the elbow by lightening. I am not a doctor, yet I was able to diagnose all this, and obviously needed surgery. Dr. Way did not. He just squinted at my eyes the whole time, as if he did not believe me. His line of questioning clearly revealed that he thought it was psychosomatic. He poked and prodded, and with zero warning, YANKED MY ARM DOWN!! Like a slot machine in Vegas! WHAM. What medical textbook says to do this?!?! No, really, I want to know. The pain was brutal, I screamed, and everyone in the waiting room heard me say MOTHERF***ER!! He had absolutely ZERO reaction. Just stared at me. A psychopath assuming everyone else is psycho. I got out of there, without even getting my shirt all the way back on. I went right to a surgeon, who said I was lucky "Dr" Way did not cause my tendon to shoot all the way up to my shoulder. I am not the type to sue, but there is no way this guy should be allowed anywhere near a patient ever again.
