Had problems with this MD when a fellow at Calgary Rheum Clinic. Went in with arthritis symptoms but he called it Perforomis Syndrome and sent me to physio. After physio i eventually went back for continuing RA symptoms but he said i was in wrong place so dont come back. In AB arthritis treatment is taken away from family MD so i had no place left to go.

Horrible, unprofessional, and rude specialist. Whenever I mentioned that a previous doctor disagreed with something he said he would say they were “stupid” or “bullshitting [me]”. He would only give me iron supplements even though multiple doctors and a pharmacist said my iron levels weren’t low enough to be causing my issues. I told him my issues and pain were ruining my life and he didn’t care. He said to have my doctor send me back in 6 months if I still have issues after taking the iron, despite diagnosing me with fibromyalgia and then refusing to treat me. He said “talk to your doctor” about treatments and was clear he wanted nothing to do with helping me. He knows nothing about spondyloarthritis and seemed confused when I asked a few questions about it and still refused to consider it even though I am HLA-B27 positive. He also said my joint swelling was from fibromyalgia, which doesn’t cause swelling. He said it’s “rare” and that’s the main reason why he won’t consider it. The more questions I asked the more angry he seemed to become.

“First, do no harm” is a phrase this doctor seems to not care about. He seems to care about nothing beyond his own ego. I have reported him to the board of physicians. DO NOT GO to this rheumatologist. Stay away.
