Showed me my child's x-rays (why?) to show a fracture but only referred me to the fracture clinic with no management advice for the meantime and refused to give pain medication, saying that was not the standard of treatment. I felt he was detached and not very caring, but I've only been to the hospital a couple of times, maybe that is typical for an ER doc?

The above ratings are based on a single consultation in the Juravinski Hospital ER on a Sunday night, June 27, 2011. Female, in my early 70's, excellent health, I presented with a rapidly advancing bright red, painless, moderately itchy rash which had appeared on both wrists, bilateral face and right eye. The doctor was abrupt, curt and dismissive of my information that though I had had childhood chicken pox, and shingles a few years ago, I had been gardening 2 days before the rash onset and had observed a new 3-leaved green low-growing plant which might have been poison ivy. "Chicken pox! Shingles! That;s it, that's what you've got, a diagnosis I could not agree with.Shingles is unbearably painful, itchy and is confined to one side of the body. I reiterated my thoughts about a contact dermatitis,eg. poison ivy, the symptoms of which perfectly matched mine. The Doctor overrode my information and opinion, prescribed an antiviral drug, but no script for pain, "because your rash is not painful" made an appointment for an Ophthalmology consultation 8 days on, just in case. I knew that the treatment for shingles must take effect within 48 hours if the rash is on you face, anywhere near your eye, so again, I could not understand the Doctor's thinking. Next day my GP diagnosed contact dermatitis, and began treatment whih had been delayed by Dr. Pardhan. My face, eyes, nose, etc swelled 3X normal, brick red, itchy, red bumps and blotches spread to neck, chest, arms, ribcage, and I was exhausted and ill for 4-5 days. Except for my need for treatment, I could have done Dr. Pardhan's job faster, been professional and helpful while providing correct diagnosis and saving myself needless distress and discomfort. I have written him.
