TERRIBLE
My family doctor referred me to Dr. Panzini. I arrived on time to my appointment and was greeted with a not so pleasant front desk. I handed over my health card and filled in the necessary paperwork of being a new patient and was finally called in after about 30 minutes of waiting for my appointment. I was brought to another room where I waited another 10 minutes. Finally Dr. Panzini’s makes her arrival and I describe to her my concerns. Rather than listening to me, she made assumptions about what she thought I did, and basically grouped me into a category she has in her head. Her first question was, “do you have drug benefits?” I replied yes, and thereafter she continuously pushed Accutane© on me. I repeatedly told her that I was not interested in Accutane© at the time because it my first appointment and that would be my last resort. I have taken Accutane© in the past and I remember the side effects being terrible. Another example of her snarky-ness was when she said “So I know you girls love MAC makeup because they have all the pretty colours...you use MAC don’t you?” I said, “No, I don’t, I use Cover-FX.” She replied “How do you know about Cover-FX?” Seriously woman? Anyways, after telling her what I need her to give me she finally complied and I left. 6 weeks later I needed a refill and had my Pharmacy fax her office to top it up and she denied it. Apparently she was freezing me out. What kind of doctor does this? I immediately went to my GP and told them everything and finally got referred to someone professional.
No, I would NOT recommend this business to a friend
