Yesterday morning (3/21/19) just solidified my belief in Novant Health system. The employees at every Novant place I've ever been has been heartless and uncaring. My visit yesterday was mainly for numbness under my shoulder blade and some pain as well. I'm more concerned about the numbness than the pain. The Dr I saw, Bridgette Dixon, didn't even physically look at my shoulder. All she did was order x-rays. After getting the x-rays she came back to the room (I thought maybe she'd take a look at my shoulder then but no she didn't) and told me the x-rays looked fine so she was going to refer me to an orthopedic surgeon. Everything I've read about my symptoms points to something going on with a nerve. I felt like I was being treated like someone with a drug addiction looking for my next high, that's how the doctor made me feel. She made me feel like she didn't believe anything I was saying. I will never go back to Novant Health even if I think I might be dying. And I'll be going to Wake Forest Baptist Hospital to have my shoulder looked at. I'm sure the doctors at Baptist will actually look at my shoulder!
