This doctor will do things her way. If you don't like it she doesn't care if you go elsewhere.

Dr. Sands is arrogant and incompetent perhaps to the point of criminally. She refuses to listen to my needs. After a mere first visit she had to chutzpah to go changing and even eliminating prescriptions previous doctors in another state really worked over and communicated with me on, and even insisted on prescribing one I've already been found allergic to--and had that fact on record at Walgreen's pharmacy! By flatly refusing to renew a Rx a prev. Dr in DE had finessed over the course of time she was trying to force me cold turkey off something necessary *and* that includes in its patient package insert that you must never cold turkey off!

Their staff was friendly enough, but they didn't go out of their way to help me. They didn't help me as much as I was hoping and didn't answer all my questions.

Making appointments is hair-pullingly difficult, even when you have a fever!

I've never sued anybody, but am considering exploring suing her because she has got to wake up and start *sharing* communication with patients! Some people might not check everything, and she might give them something already a known allergen, and kill them. I have completely stopped trusting her. I want to shout loud and clear that she is scary and to avoid her!
