I was referred to this provider to specifically discuss my [...] and [...] CT scans and discuss surgery. This provider informed me in the appointment that she does not do the surgery I need and has not been trained in it - therefore the appointment was a complete waste of time and unnecessary expense for me. The provider said she would not charge me, but I'm doubtful that will be the case.
