Dr. Listen seemed detached and responded negatively to questions about options to obtain the outcome I wanted. I probed to get more explanation but the responses from him were short. |
|
06/08/2024 |
Very quick discussion. Not enough time to ask questions. |
|
05/29/2024 |
I understand that x number of options must be considered before any type of surgical procedure, I find the length of time I'm left to my own devices is unreasonable all things considered and having a Doctor that seems not willing to spend enough time with a patient to get out my concerns. Wait so long for appointment for him to rush out of room, feels like my case is almost boring to him and due size of wound. I was originally hit by a Marta bus and both ankles were crushed the bus ended up on top of my right ankle and dragged 20 feet. So the chronic nerve damage and pain is very real and since the muscle used to save leg came from my left thy worry about infection to muscle that might compromise wound. |

Dr. Loskin was very helpful. He let me call my sister so she could hear the consult. He sat there until we had asked every questions. His answers were informative and clear so we understood what would happen through the journey |
|
04/28/2023 |
Do not feel the provider is engaged and concerned after surgery of the patient. General answers and nothing definite that you feel applies to you the patient verses general knowledge explanations that can be found through good research on the internet. |
|
04/28/2023 |
I would recommend the doctors but not Emory itself.emory has grown too big and is unable to handle it. |
|
04/28/2023 |
Based on the professionalism that was shown to me, I can easily recommend these types of services to my friends and family members. |
