I am a post stroke patient. Went to my neurologist for routine visit. Told her of symptoms that concerned me. She called an ambulance and had me transported to Leesburg hospital. They did a cat scan but no MRI. ER Dr felt I had carpal tunnel. ??? She discharged me. Neurologist shocked that no MRI was done. Sent me to RayUs stat. Result was a new stroke. Told to go immediately to a hospital. Well I was not going back to Leesburg after that inept Dr thought I had carpal tunnel, so I went to The Villages Hospital. Seen immediately, admitted after extensive workup. Excellent care. Their hospital neurologist is excellent. Wish he had a private practice.
