This provider came in and out less than 10 minutes. I did not even move ina. Position for him to physically look at my affected shoulder in a gown. Gave me a garden variety answer and rushed me out the door to physical therapy and steroids. I only kept the PT appointment in hopes that they could help better diagnose and plan for a way to treat this.
