I went to the clinic with a strange illness that we were never able to diagnose. I explained that my mother, who is a nurse at the LDS Hospital in SLC, was previously concerned about meningitis and a few other illnesses. Even though I assured him that I wasn't concerned about meningitis, he took the time to thoroughly explain why this concern was ridiculous. He was condescending and arrogant in his explanations.

After explaining to the Doctor that I also did NOT have strep throat, indicating the differences in the symptoms between strep and what I had, the Doctor still ran a $57 strep test.

He was apparently proficient enough to patronize his patients' concerns, but smooth enough to "check just in case" when it means a profit for him.

These folks are just looking to make a buck, there are plenty of other clinics near here. The Riverwoods Urgent Care is only a mile north.
