The doctor and nurse were amazing. I had anxiety about my visit and they did what they could to lessen my anxiety.
Felt heard and that the provider and staff did everything to help me, more than another provider has in several months.
Dr Berky is determined to help me with my pain, and I greatly appreciate that.
I felt like she listened to me and discussed a plan for me.
Listened to my concerns and worked out a treatment plan going forward.
I'm feeling much better now
When the doctor came into the room she said hi to me in a friendly voice, she was wearing a surgical hair covering and turned her back to me to focus her attention on maybe it was paper work. I had hardly seen her face. I said hi to her and answered any questions she had for me. I was guessing she was my doctor. I had only met her once before, and of course she was dressed differently for the procedure. My point is: I wasn't sure who she was when she walked in. Just before the procedure I knew in my mind that I was going to need to stay very still for the procedure. I felt the need to swallow any saliva in my mouth one last time before needing to stay still. I propped myself up on my elbows while swallowing one last time. The doctor said to me, right in the middle of my swallowing "What are you doing?". Since I was n the middle of swallowing, I lifted up one finger as if to say just a second, then I said "I'm swallowing". She then felt the need to explain to me that I needed to stay very still for the procedure. I know that. I've been through having these kind of shots two different times in the back and one time in the hip with another doctor. I didn't say or explain anything to her after her explanation. I felt as if she was irritated with me and didn't know that I already knew that. Of course I kept my mouth shut and didn't bother to tell her that. I assume she has a scheduled to keep to and wanted to get on with the procedure. After having this done before with a different doctor, I had told myself that I would never go through this again. This was very difficult for me to let myself go through this again. During the procedure it hurt very bad, but I will say even with that, it felt better than with the doctor who had done it before at a different location. I believe your doctor did a good job. While it was hurting very bad, I started repeating the word ow. The doctor calmly said something like: "we can stop now if you want to, but I'm not finished administering the medication yet". I asked how much longer. She said 20 seconds. I let her know that I could continue to go through with it. All of the other nurses and assistants were kind and helpful.
I have a lot of confidence that my outcome is in great care/management
Parking is a real problem.
