I am told that it would be the 19th before I could get in to see my Dr and to go to Urgent Care. As this has happened once before, me not being able to see my Dr., I was not happy. I let the receptionist know that I have a primary dr so that I can avoid going to Urgent Care and the ER. She told me he fills up fast and go to Urgent Care. After further discussion of how unhappy I was, I hung up. Because I had no Other choice, I went to Urgent Care in Sumter. Luckily, there was only one person ahead of me.......I still waited for 40 minutes. Not sure how that can be. So, I was ushered into a room where I waited for about 15 minutes for the Dr. To come in. As I was sitting there, I overheard people singing happy birthday. Then I heard a male voice ask a female if she had had birthday cake, to which she replied "no" and then she said something else I couldn't understand. The male voice said "you should have had some it was good". Then I heard the male voice say "you didn't want a lap dance? Don't you like lap dances?" At this point my mind was wandering .......who was this creep talking about lap dances? Then my door opened to my room and in came the "Doctor". I use that term loosely. It was the same person talking lap dances. I recognized the voice. He walks in with balloon like, baggy, bright surfing like pants on, sneakers and a sweat shirt. My jaw dropped. Thank god he only had to examine my ears and throat because he sure wasn't touching me. I was appalled that this person would be so disrespectful to his patients and to the medical practice in general. He was obviously eating cake while I was waiting for 15 minutes in the room. I can see he has his priorities straight. I will never go back to that care center if he's the Dr. That's on. I am losing my faith in the medical system here each and every day. I am also switching primary care doctors. Probably going to Colony Plaza or Pinellas. Trying to research the available doctors. I don't see that any of them are board certified. It scares me.

what was his name? I want to be sure to avoid him. Thanks.
