The provider did not listen to my complaints at all. Suggest that I could just not treat the problem because its not bothering me, after I have already explained all the ways its impacting me. Also questioned why I was there even though I was referred by a neurologist that he 'respects'. [redacted] I would have appreciated more empathy.
