UMMS Review Intro text

  • I love Dr. Shetty. She's the best

  • She was very nice and explained the issue I'm facing with the liver disease

  • Dr Shetty was quite patient and informative.

  • Here's the thing. The doctor was not rude or bad by any means. This was a referral, I had to drive an hour to an early appointment, wait over thirty minutes because I needed to see this specialist. I spoke first to the doctor's student, also totally fine, this is a medical campus after all. The person I spoke to the least was the actual doctor who told me what condition they believed I had and all of the tests they wanted to do and then asked "do you have any questions?" I didn't even know what questions to ask. It would have been great to have a layman's explanation of the condition they believed I had, an explanation of all of the tests and why, again as a layman. It was so fast. "This is what we think you have, to do these tests and come back in 3-months. Do you have questions?" So I guess my disappointment was wrapped more in the fact that I wished the doctor would have slowed down, explained everything in a much less complicated manner, and just made me feel less like this could've taken place on a 10-minute zoom or even just over email.
