Karin Michels-Ashwood, MD

very thorough review of meds, concerns, etc.

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.

She’s ok, I sometimes feel she’s rushed to get through my appt.

Very communicative caring compassion also follows up with patient

Rushed through appt

very good listener explained clearly on time thorough

She was thorough.

This was my first visit and I am just getting to know the doctor.

Kindness

Dr. Karin seems to be always in rush and as if she pretends to listen to the patience problem and then disregard what is being told by the patient. Patient to be left feeling not heard, not cared for or given right treatment/expected plans

She misdiagnosed me even though she seemed very confident about the diagnosis. I get that she’s not a specialist, but that had a domino effect on my life and took an extra week to resolve.

Great experience. Thorough and knowledgeable and caring.

She puts me at ease to ask questions, and she explains things

Didn’t ask andjust removed my glasses. This was a first!

Well, she explained all the test results during the visit, which was something I like

Listened to my concerns , past history , probing questions very comprehensive and thorough

I felt like my care provider was trying to bully me into moving on without answering my questions. I had to assert myself very strongly to feel my questions were answered and did not feel comfortable asking any additional ones. The answers I received felt like the bare minimum, and I had to ask the questions several times and ask many followup questions to get an idea of what was going on. Since I lead the conversation and not the doctor, I don't know if there were things I should know that didn't occur to me to ask.
