My appointment with Dr. F went well. Unfortunately I had to wait over 30 minutes past my scheduled time. That's a real pet peeve with me especially when I arrived 10 minutes early. But what can you do? He takes his time with his clients. So if you're going to book him, know that in advance and bring a book. I brought his book. LOL. Should have asked him to sign it for me.
The good news is that he was very through and spent over an hour with me. I can't remember the last doctor that did that. He mainly listened to me and examined me. I've got a number of blood tests and other tests to go get done. He didn't diagnose me or give me a plan of action, which I was a little disappointed with, but it's what I want. I'm looking for a doctor to help treat all of my issues with a number of different things not just prescriptions. So I think he's my man. Once all the tests come back to him, I'll go in for a follow-up/action plan. That's what the receptionist told me.
On the negative side, and not to be ageist, he is an older doctor. I'm guessing he's in his late 60s early 70s or older. That took me aback a bit, but you know, he knows his stuff and he's studied PCOS over the last 25 years. So I'm not going to let that stop me.
Everyone at the office couldn't have been lovelier and I felt very comfortable there. I didn't feel like just a number as I have at other offices.
I'd love to hear anyone elses thoughts if they've gone to Dr.F.
Thanks! |
