Great surgeon for laparoscopic surgery for gallbladder..., May 25, 2012 Dr. McDearmont did a terrific job and his staff was friendly as well. I would highly recommend him for anyone needing laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. The recovery was seamless and I was back to work in three days! |

Dr Dan Sicking - Internal medicine and primary care..., Mar 6, 2012 Dr. Sicking is very laid back,understanding,spends time with you and never rushes. He is thorough and doesn't miss a thing. He has been my primary care physician for over 3 years and I can't say enough good things about him. His staff is always very nice and understands if you might be a little irritable or short with them, due to illness or injury. They are terrific. They do not OVER schedule, so you can almost always get in, the very day you call or the next day. Besides being a brilliant physician, he never talks down to you or treats you like you're a 2nd grader and that is appreciated immensely by me. He is one of the few physicians I have ever had, that explains things to you, the way it should be done. Having several serious medical issues, finding Dr. Sicking, was a godsend. I hate to think I may have to move 80 miles away, in a year or so, due to my job, but you can be sure, I'll make the trip, when needed, as I have no intention of changing doctors. He'd have to retire to get rid of me! :) |

Wouldn't send my worst enemy to him or his staff. Avoid at all cost!..., Feb 17, 2012 I've been to lots of doctors in my time, but "Doctor Carter" (if he so can be called) is the worst. Not even a close second. He spent roughly 15 minutes in the room with me, in which, 10 of those minutes were him typing my information into a computer. Never even listened to my symptoms, just typed. Also, I had to argue endlessly with his nurse to write me a higher amount of my prescription, even after my insurance had agreed to a higher amount. She was just too lazy to write it, or confirm with the insurance company. Stay away if you care about your health! His staff is equally useless. I requested my lab results 4 TIMES before they sent them out 1 MONTH later. It's sad, but he has jaded me to the medical profession. If you don't care about people, why become a doctor? |

EXCEEDINGLY GIFTED, PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONABLE - ..., Dec 30, 2011 I have been a patient of Dr. Rutstein's for over a year and find him to be a GREAT doctor, exceedingly gifted in his field. He is EXTREMELY knowledgeable when it comes to managing complicated cases (i.e. multiple disorders, disorders in addition to other medical conditions). He is incredibly educated in regards to medications AND their side effects. He has no problems in answering any questions or addressing any concerns you may have. If a particular side effect is a concern for you (i.e. weight gain, drowsiness) he does his best to find alternatives. He is very personable, which is rare, as generally psychiatrists tend to be very clinical. He spends a good amount of time with you, never making you feel rushed. He listens, asks questions, and asks your thoughts on things before he gives you his take. In my experience, he is not just concerned about making an illness or situation manageable, but in truly improving a patient's quality of life. His staff is friendly and very helpful. You can definitely tell both Dr. Rutstein and his staff enjoy what they do. I happily recommend him to anyone looking. |

poor service, inaccurate information, disregard for patient values or input..., Dec 18, 2011 Dr. McLemore treated me for anal condyloma. I believe she recklessly destroyed a lot of healthy tissue. She cut me up and burned me really bad and she became irritated when I complained about my pain and (temporary) disfigurement. McLemore took a large biopsy from an area I believe was healthy before the operation. It took me 2 months to recover from the biopsy and for my anus to start to regain a non-disfigured appearance. The biopsy also caused me uncontrollable pain. The biopsy turned out to have no clinical value; the biopsy result was not relevant to future treatment decisions. I was left with a small, visible scar on my anal margin from the biopsy. Dr. McLemore gave me unrealistic expectation for recovery time and pain levels. I beleive McLemore behaved with negligence and I have asked for a review of my case. McLemore seemed cold an uncaring toward me most times I saw her. McLemore insisted on not giving me any say in how the procedure was done in my case, but she refused to apologize or admit wrongdoing when her preferred method went wrong. I believe that if you have a negative outcome, McLemore will be cold and uncaring toward you. I believe she will blame you and say it was your fault for signing all the paperwork. And there is more paperwork than you will believe. Most of the paperwork I signed was immediately before the operation and this also makes me suspicious. Obviously, I don't recommend this doctor. |
