Patient Reviews
May 23, 2024
I've been seeing Dr Short for 20 years, He has always been a great doctor with a great bedside manner. I would cont. to see him but ,problem I have is since he joined with Skyline Gastro. It took me a year to get a colonoscopy, and 4 weeks to get fibro test results, on my Liver it took the nurse 4 weeks to call me with my results, I called them a l, it took a long time to get a fibro scan. That can be dangerous , if you needed treatment right away. When they finally called ,the nurse told me very little, I was confused . If a person was bad sick taking that long can cost them their life. This is a mess that needs straightened out. I am going to have to find a new doctor whom is aware of what's going on. That makes me sad . I know she didn't tell the dr about my ultrasound that could be causing my Liver Problem. I've Called has not return my calls. Dr Short, I Pray You read your reviews. Dr Short is Great its his staff messing up. this never happened at his other office.
