BAD EXPERIENCE | by Dee on Jun 15, 2017

I attended the clinic due to a rash on my arm. I saw Dr. Yostos. He was less than friendly, less than helpful. He chastised me for not having enough information, told me I had shingles followed by "I don't know, this is my opinion, maybe I'm right maybe I'm wrong" and gave me a prescription and told me to see my family doctor tomorrow. The whole reason I went to a walk in clinic is because I can't just go to my family dr. He usually takes 7 to 10 days to see. I was sent away with (according to the pharmacist) was a heavy dose of anti-viral meds. Since I couldn't see my doctor I decided to go to the ER (I thought walk in clinics were meant to alleviate the stress on the ER) the doctor took one quick look and said "There's no way that's shingles" and directed me to stop taking the meds. He followed it up by telling me that Dr. Yostos needs some retraining. My experience with Dr. Yostos was uncomfortable and he made me feel as though I had done something wrong by getting a rash on my arm. He has no bed side manner whatsoever, not to mention he completely misdiagnosed me and sent me home with a pricey prescription I didn't even need. What gets me the most is that with his back to me he walked out the exam room saying "I don't know, maybe, maybe not"...who does that? I will never return to this walk in again...EVER, and if anyone tells me they are going there I will direct them elsewhere while sharing my story with them.
