The nurses were fantastic but the Doctor was in too big a hurry when I asked questions about the results of the colonoscopy--He gave me the impression he did not have time and barely acknowledged my one question

Felt very rushed. The doctor came in. Did not really listen to my related history. Honed in on one symptom, said I needed stool studies, read results of the CT scan I had had, and told nurse to schedule procedures. Handed a copy of the CT results to my daughter, told her thanks for bringing me in, shook our hands, and was out the door. Whole time took approximately 8 minutes. Felt very rushed.
