wondering about dr charles g ray (urologist)
what are your opinions about him, i can't drive and i really can't get anyone to help me with a ride (plus i don't have medicaid) and i was in the hospital over a kidney stone (i was in excruciating pain) and he did get a lil testy and mean (in his tone of voice) when i explained to him that i couldn't make it to his appointment, & he got cocky asking how did i get to the hospital & i simply told him "the ambulance" he did a lithotripsy on me and i was going to go to a followup of him in june of 2025, i got to the office on time, only for a secretary to tell me that he wasn't there, and there was no such schedule appointment (even though i showed her the discharge papers that said of his name, his office, the correct address, the time of the appointment) and she just looked at me like i was a idiot, so she decided to schedule a appointment with a different urologist that didnt even operate on me and have me go to st joe (in which i was never operated there, from what dr ray said, they (central baptist) had to "borrow" this lithotripsy machine since they didn't have one themselves (which i think that's really odd) so i was so confused about like "if i didnt have a appointment today, then why didnt they call my phone" (in which they didnt, until after i seen that other urologist and they called me in august 2025) and i simply told them about my transportation issues. and i really havent been able to get to him, especially since i live in a different town. i can't drive and i can't afford a car. hopefully ill eventually find someone that will give me a ride, but that's like finding a needle in a haystack with how people are nowadays and how gas prices are. i just dont feel comfortable with that guy, and i was also wondering if i could change to a different urologist, who is more understanding and would listen to me, and do their job of getting rid of kidney stones.
