SO ANGRY.... IN NEED of a good OB/GYN! With GOOD bedside manner!

I am going to need a new ob/Gyn, the one I went to RUINED my vacation.... he told me to call him ASAP while I was away, he left a message on my phone, and I had checked it from where we were. He told me I needed to call him ASAP. I was FREAKING out, he refused to get on the phone and then finally got on after 20 minutes and 2 calls later. It turns out I had a microscopic amount of blood in my urine. I had gone for a UTI originally because my reg doctor was away. I should see a uriologist.Mind you this doctor did not ask me if I was MIDCYCLE- hello an ob/gyn smudges me off and does not ask this- and I was midcycle and spotting from it- Then the docotor was VERY abrupt with me and threw me off the phone. AF showed up a few days later and I put it together that I was ovulating when I took the test. So, Now I am paranoid he is going to call again- and tell me something else- when I asked about my pap, he was like- no, it has not come back yet... hello 3 weeks later, and no news is good news?! Then get this one ladies- I told him at the exam I was nervous I have never seen a male ob/gyn before and he said-
"Like the pizza box- you've tried the rest, now try the best!".
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PS I never got to relax on this well needed vacation the right way!

Definitely time for a new doctor - sounds like this one had no bedside manner with you. Hey I saw one Endo who didn't look at my blood or my old chart and told me - "if you look at a concentration camp you don't see one person with a metabolism problem and the rest skinny - no they are all skinny - you just need to eat a lot less - eat 600 calories a day and do 1-2 hours of exercise and you will lose weight"

Who is this OB/GYN?

There are plenty people on here who like their dr's so it shouldn't be hard to find a new one asap

I am so sorry to hear that. What area are you looking? My regular OB/GYN is in Deer Park and his name is Dr. Pillitari he is great and so is his entire staff but there are times when the wait in his office is ridiculous.

I'd storm into his office with a pizza box to slam over his head
Make a big stink and let everyone in the office know how he treated you
