Terrible communication outside the office. I requested a blood test via MyChart after starting a new medication and received no response. During last visit, I had several questions and concerns regarding upcoming infusion therapy. Did not receive the follow-up call I was promised.

There was some confusion about adding lab orders from my primary care physician. It was sorted out successfully but it was a bit unsettling and the nurse who drew blood was not happy that I was requesting something she was not familiar with.

The only paperwork we get from this Dr. is that we were there for appt. Paper showed BP, Weight and etc. I complained that we never get the info regarding what we talked about. I can't get into a MyChart, but evidently, he knew this, so he printed out a page with bloodwork that was just done in their office so I could share this with our family. Glad we only see him every 6 months.
