    [redacted] My husband has rather advanced dementia. [redacted] I find the doctor perfectly adequate, not great, not bad, average, and the Zoom calls are convenient for us. It went well. We mainly see him to keep the prescriptions going. There's no cure for the problem. There's no magic solution that he can offer. He can simply give us the standard medications that are, you know, state-of-the-art right now. [redacted]

    I waited a really long time for this appointment and it was only virtual. Every time I was talking, he would cut me off. He didn't let me share all of the information I wanted to share. He essentially dismissed me whenever I was sharing. He dismissed me when I shared about current treatments from doctors saying my diagnosis of convergence and sufficiency was garbage. There's nothing that can be done for me with a concussion (he didn't let me list all of my symptoms he told me he only wanted to hear my most troublesome and nothing more). He told me I was doing too much and just to, " get on with my life and deal with my symptoms and in time I will get better". Told me to keep taking the medication's for my migraines as they will help and get on a beta blocker for pots and try to get other medication for pots, but did not tell me what other type of medication would help. I didn't even share all of my meds I was taking with him because again he cut me off. I spoke with him on the virtual call for about 10 minutes and did not feel validated at all. [redacted]
