This review is purely for the ER bedside manner of Dr. Kinsey. The nurses were lovely, the PA was lovely. This doctor is a sorry excuse of a health care provider who couldn t even bother to read a chart before entering a patient s room. When presented with questions about care, procedure, and conflicting opinions on what was wrong he chose to walk out of the room instead of addressing the patient s concerns. Not only did he walk out of the room mid question once, he did it twice! I ve never seen such a thing! The patient was a close friend of mine that I accompanied to the ER. Yes, she was in distress (hence being in the ER). However, the questions she asked were valid and easily answerable (as proven by all the wonderful nurses and the P.A.). We wasted about five hours on something that should have taken maybe two hours tops with the rush that was occurring at the time.
