    This care provider put a bunch of untrue things about my health on my summary, after-visit summary. Then he contacted my primary to tell him, and my primary stood up for me and said that I don't have any of these things wrong, and that I looked like my hair looked brittle and all these terrible things. And I called the office manager, [REDACTED], and I told her, and she agreed with me. They made him take it off. This doctor or provider was terrible. I went there for one issue to get resolved, and he was mentioning all these other things that I did weight loss on, which was fine, and that, oh, it's horrible, and I could be really, really ill. It was just horrible, and I wouldn't go back there. I went many, many years ago to a doctor you had in that practice, Dr. [REDACTED]

    Dr. Crawford makes some bold (to me) decisions, but he's always been right. It's a little wild and also comforting to have faith in someone like that. While he always takes the time to explain his reasoning and answer any questions, it still comes down to if I trust him, me, who would otherwise biopsy every innocuous lump I've got just to be safe. Yep. The nurse/tech who weighed me and did the preliminary questions was great. I was pretty wound up based on what the radiologist had told me, and she connected purposefully and was kind. If I have to be in "cancerland" whether or not I actually have cancer, I'm grateful for these people.
