Young kid . In a hurry . Did not ask me about my girl in the waiting area but said in his notes That I was unaccompanied. He also told me I never had NHP when every other dr. Says thats the issue . I told him I was there to get an updated diagnosis so I can simply get my Social Security disability. Somehow we got into a personal conversation about a girl he dated was my bosses daughter me and that boss did not get along and I believe there’s some kind of personal vengeance going on here. He knew that he had sabotage my May 8 Social Security disability chances. Completely.. he signed me up for very expensive test that I’ve already had. I wish I would’ve seen any doctor about someone who had a reason to dislike me on a personal level.

I shared it all about Dr Gates previously in this survey - please look back
He was good a giving me feed back.
At first I thought I wasn’t being “heard” when speaking but maybe I was being too sensitive. The after visit clinic notes confirmed my suspicions. The notes are riddled with inaccuracies, and some statements have a very dismissive tone to them. I do not appreciate a provider who charts inaccuracies when gathering information from a patient. The way to fix this problem is to ACUALLY hear your patient, not just “listen”. Also, the concerns that patients come to you with are important to them, and even though you may see these issues over and over in your practice, they are in many cases, scary, life changing issues for them. It would be nice to be met with something other than a flat effect, lack of interest, and at times a judgemental tone. This experience was awful and left me feeling worse, mentally and physically. A helpful hint regarding post visit clinical notes, select your words and phrases carefully, your selections can have a profound effect on a patient’s mental health, patient provider relationship, and ultimately on a patient’s recovery.
Appointment was on time. Dr was respectful, patient and caring.
