        Yes, I would like to share that the doctor, who examined my mom acted as if, ""he didn't want to touch her"" doing our visit. He could've used gloves or whatever but he changed I guess when he saw the way I was watching him.

        Dr. does not rush me, explains well, he and staff are very courteous. Dr. is trying to get to bottom of my problems when Montgomery drs. didn’t seem interested in helping me. It’s organized. So far I’m very pleased. Two incidences of minor things with two employees but it just could have been a bad day for them. I am a senior and their kindness relieves a lot of my anxiety.

        Provider was not interested in my well being. He Brushed me off and that is the reason I switched providers. He has no bedside manner and I did not feel he had my best interest in mind as a patient. He didn't care, even when I told him my symptoms. In fact he said my issues were resolved. They are not. I understand that I am not a physician, but I do know my experiences and symptoms are valid. I would never recommend him to anyone.

        I came all the way from Florida to have my delayed appointment with Dr fathalla. I waited over an hour and a half for him and there was still going to be another wait. I think this is unconscionable. I had to cancel because I had another appointment at another location and could not miss that appointment either. I have some neurological issues that needed to be addressed and now they won't be able to be. I am very upset and will try to contact others at UAB to find out what exactly the issues are.
