"He dismissed me. I need to go back if a hematological need arises. So basically I am without answers and I did what he told me to. I waited forever in the room to see him for 5 minutes and he really didn't describe my blood work. So I got more blood work and I will need to find someone else to go over it without even examining me. No I won't go back. He didn't want to play detective work to find the source of my issue. Thanks for nothing."
