Apathetic, irritable, openly hates his job, careless, horrific bedside manner. If you're being seen by him, demand a different doctor.
Told me I lied just to get on to see him. Another specialist referred me to him. I would never voluntarily go to him.
I see him once a year for prescription refills. Told him I was having some other health concerns, at one of these appt. He increased one med, and replaced a new med for old. He replied, probably won't help, when asked. Had 6 mo. follow-up for 2nd concern, told him I had gotten expodentionally worse, due to injuries since last visit. Only solution, up dosages again, with probably won't help. No information, testing or treatment plan done/given. That's all you have to say, YEP see you in 6 mo. Could hardly understand him due t... read more
That's it. He's not here for you. We've had uncaring, little sympathy, detached treatment before but they at least listened. This man doesn't even do that. I swear, he's Aplus s o c I o p a t h. We went in for migraines, as you do. We've been to several doctors, as I'm sure as most of you know, some don't get it right, life gets hectic. He comes in and says, ' So, I'm next.'No hello.No courtesy.Nothing.Didn't listen a word we said as we came prepared with meds that didn't work. Prescribed same meds. And hey, if you just need... read more
Wife saw him and he was uncaring and rude and very unprofessional. Demanded a different doctor and she got one. How this man is still practicing after all the complaints and negative reviews astounds me. Not good experience with him at all.
BY far the worst care Ive ever received from a medical professional. I plainly laid out my symptoms several times & he attempted to gaslight me into believing I was wrong about what I was experiencing-that those effects were “normal” for migraines. I suffered debilitating pains for over 3 months before I could get into see some else at a different treatment facility. While he & his nurse had essentially stopped responding to my calls in a timely manner & only sending random prescriptions to treat symptoms (without telling me... read more
My family Doctor made a referral to the neurology clinic. I showed up early for my appointment, was called back to his room. He burped out loud three times and never said excuse me, he then yawned several times like he was bored. He then looked at me and said “why are you here”, i said to get some answers that DrCarfrae wouldn’t give me. He then said “you know there’s no cure for what you have, there’s no medicine that can help you.” He made stand up and walk across the room, then made stand with my eyes closed, then he just... read more
Very patient, listens to what I have to say and discusses the options that are available. Wonderful Doctor.
I waited 4 months to see Puricelli. He spent 5 minutes with me. Didn't answer any of my questions regarding my symptoms. Said he couldn't find the EMG test results that were sent to him. Didn't give me any ideas on what could be causing numbness in toes/feet. Was angry, impatient and could care less. End result was "come back in 6 months and see if your symptoms worsen". This guy is miserable. I have never been treated so poorly by a doctor.
