I went to see her for a hernia repair. We talked she seemed pleasant. I've been under Hartford healthcare since 2021. And I explained to her that I will not be thrown under the bus. If I have this operation meaning a nurse will not diagnose or treat me. The last nurse that did, I did a week in Hartford hospital. She took offense to that. I also told her I had the right to say who operates on my body. She proceeded to say Hartford hospital is a teaching hospital. I said, yes, I know. she wanted me to have a ct scan i told her I don't do radiation working at 2 nuclear facilities myself. I know all about radiation. I wanted this operation done for the winter. So the only way to expedite it would have the c t scan.So I bent I had the ct scan a week and a half later, after having a scan, i'm still having issues So then yesterday I get a call from her telling me she spoke to her senior colleagues, and that she wasn't the right doctor to do the operation.After I bent and had the c t scan and been sick for the last week and a half and by the way, they're all from third world countries. I've seen her colleagues all but one One of them lied to me. The other one was gonna slap some mesh in me. And I said, no, that aint happening. She also got upset and took offense because I questioned her about how many of these operations.She did, and she told me over six hundred which honestly I find that hard to believe I'm not surprised she kicked me to the curb. People before picking a general surgeon, Hartford, healthcare. Do what you do on Amazon look at the. Reviews. There's some good but a lot of them tell the truth, just like I am These docs cut you open, grab their money and then leave it in the nurse's hands. I've been told by three their doctors that the follow up would be done with the nurses that ain't happening.I had nothing to get nurses, but I'll tell you what harvard health care needs to do a better job.Hiring component nurses You need to read all the papers.You're given before any operation or even visiting the doctors with harrtford health care Hartford hospital and hartford healthcare does a lot of good for a lot of people Where you have to remember is these doctors are contractors. They don't work directly for the hospital. So the badge they wear is not to be interpreted as they work for Hartford hospital? I can go on, but I'm gonna say it again. Look at the reviews of these general surgeons. Before making a choice, the bottom line, your life depends on it
