"I saw Dr Samaddar for heart palpitations that were keeping me up at night. He didn’t seem to believe me and said he noticed i had been there before for the same issue. It was all around bizarre encounter i was 3 months postpartum and no questions about that either, he just wanted to chalk it up to something i was making up in my head. A simple blood test would’ve shown that i was developing hyperthyroidism which heart palpitations is a symptom of. So frustrated because i would’ve known sooner if he had not dismissed my concerns."

"I went to see Dr. Holdcraft for a variety of strange symptoms I was experiencing. She basically said: “I’m sorry I don’t know what to tell you.” I asked if she thought I should have bloodwork and she replied, “No, because you had bloodwork done at your last physical“ (months ago!!). Three weeks later I called and requested to get a script for bloodwork, stating I wanted to be tested for Lyme. She wouldn’t order the bloodwork without another appointment. I told her my symptoms were identical to when I had seen her and she had NOTHING to offer. It took a week of negotiating over the phone and then she finally agreed to give the script. A week after my bloodwork, I received the most bizarre message from Dr. Holdcraft: “So, I don’t know why we tested you for Lyme but it’s positive. I guess you’ve started antibiotics (NO, I hadn’t since this was the first I was learning of this).” My experience was most unprofessional!! I can’t help but think of how my healing could’ve started much sooner had she ordered bloodwork when I first came in..... She seems completely disengaged."

"A specialist recommended an EKG due to some symptoms. I quickly got an appointment within the week with Christine Stone. Everyone there was friendly and accommodating- considering I was an anxious mess. The results were abnormal, but I was reassured kindly and professionally. They even got me an appointment with a cardiologist the next day. So glad to have found a new primary."
