- Kathleen
Dr. Choi was aloof and dismissive of of my condition and concerns. I went to her regarding a tumor which she assured me on three occasions it was benign. I had a surgical biopsy which the results from Garnet Health were inconclusive. I was not prepared for the pain or size of the incision after the biopsy. When asked what recovery time would be I was told "well you won't want to go to work the next day" along with other dismissive statements and was never actually given a time frame. There was no follow up call after the surgery. A follow up appointment was scheduled without my knowledge at that appointment she still was not upfront about my condition and the possibility that the tumor was malignant. When the biopsy was inconclusive I was told it was being sent to Sloan Kettering for further testing. The sample was not sent to SKM for 8 days after I was told this. The biopsy results came back 8 days ago and Dr. Choi still has not contacted me to tell me I have cancer. I obtained the pathology results from my primary (not Crystal Run) and had to read them myself.
