"Must have too many patients, so no time for me. Two appts re-scheduled/cancelled unilaterally, without even consulting with me first, near impossible to get thru and talk to a real person, forget Dr. Alexander. 2nd of two visits lasted a mere 5 min. yet I am dealing with advanced high risk prostate cancer..."

"Dr. Alexander was my husband’s urologist. We first thought he had an enlarged prostate. He was catheterized since he could not go on his own. This started on Nov 30th 2020. He was admitted to hospital on Dec. 28th due to acute UTI. They did an abdominal CT & found two masses.A cystoscopy was performed Jan. 4th. I had consistently informed the office & dr. if my husbands rapidly declining physical and mental health. A biopsy was performed January 7th. Biopsy results were in on Jan. 15th. My husband was doing so bad I asked Dr. Alexander & office to give results instead of waiting for an appointment on Jan. 19th. My request was refused & other family members called to tell how seriously ill my husband was. On Jan. 19th my husband was in the ER and admitted. I cried for Dr. Alexander to keep our meeting but he would not do it without my husband, who was in the hospital suffering hallucinations, chronic pain, chronic itching and crying for help. The results were withheld until Wednesday, Jan. 20th. A rm sitter was assigned to my husband since he required 24 hour care. On Thursday, Jan 21st, it was decided to do inpatient hospice so he could have his first night without constant pain, hallucinations, agitation and tears. On Friday, Jan 22nd, my husband died. I never did hear from Dr. Alexander. A nurse practitioner gave me results over the phone. My husband could have been in hospice earlier and saved from going through additional days of hell. Myself and our entire family could have been spared those days of heartache, helplessness and would have been able to see him pain free sooner. We could have been by his side those days and prepared ourselves for losing him. We only had hours with him before he passed. Dr. Alexander did not heed our pleas, showed no compassion or never even called. I pray no one goes through what we did. I would never recommend Dr. Alexander."
