She seemed annoyed and said "we'll" see when I said multiple other providers suggested I get more diagnostic testing/imaging. I repeatedly mentioned my ongoing back concerns as well and was largely ignored. After examination she ordered imaging only for my head; no discussion/referrals about my back issues.
