She was very understanding ofmy medical needs
-
Very competent Professional Thorough

I’m sure she doesn’t want things to be the way they are. So I don’t like writing this because I think she cares and she wants to do better. But there is no follow up. She was concerned about my condition and definitely referred me to another doctor, but when that doctor became unavailable, and I let her know that that was the end of that. Suddenly the concern seemed to have disappeared. The urgency was gone. So? Is my condition urgent and it’s just fine to drop the ball. Or was it not urgent and the concern was feigned?

I am Not sure if Karin knew what the rash is that I have.
-
I didn’t feel comfortable with her. I did just meet her. Maybe she was busy that day or overwhelmed or something. She seemed annoyed and rushed. So that made me feel uncomfortable and then she gave me a referral for neurology with wrong phone number and wrong address. Still waiting on that to be resolved.
