    This doctor did NOT listen to my concerns or explanations of the history of my condition and seemed to have his own agenda. He quoted a lot of statistics (I NEVER fall into the statistical pool when it comes to health) that did not apply to my particular case and seemed to want to negate what prior specialists for this condition have found. Later, when I had reviewed his office notes (not the visit summary), I noted that he had put in his comments -statements that I had never made and had twisted some of the other things I had said, omitting information that did not support his supposition of my diagnosis.

    Dr. DeCoy listened to me, did not rush my appointment. He is an excellent teacher and helped me understand my health issues more thoroughly. Next steps were discussed clearly. Follow up was prompt and thorough.
