He didn't care about my concerns this was a second follow up with Dr. Scherer and each time I was able to hear him outside the door saying he didn't do my surgery, I understand my surgery was done on a emergency basis and the surgeon is not one of Adventist usual surgeons and my follow up's were placed with Dr. Scherer who was not pleased to do my follow up by the treatment he gave me. As for my concerns I think it is unprofessional for him to walk out if the room and just he loud about it in the hallway where everyone can hear he very unprofessional and told me just go to primary doctor.

Dr Sheree has a terrible bed side manner. He made us feel unimportant and a waste of his time. Interrupted us when we were trying to explain my husbands sickness.

He was in the room with me what seemed to me no more than 5 minutes. He rushed throughout the appointment.
