I went w/my partner as an advocate and translator to his 1st appointment with Dr. Wetters. Our experience was very frustrating and disappointing. My partner has had constant and intense pain in down his arm and behind his shoulder blade, as well as weakness in said arm. We described these symptoms on a detailed form before our meeting with the Dr. He entered the office & immediately came off as cold and rushed. He asked a few standard questions before sending my partner to an X-ray. After reviewing the X-ray he very quickly suggested a course of steroids and PT. This is when I asked if he was planning on doing a phys. exam of any kind/ if he had considered the weakness in his arm as mentioned on the form, because at this point he had not asked about it, nor was he suggesting that the issues may be nerve related. After being prompted, he did the phys. exam & changed his tune. He prescribed an MRI, Steroids, and referred us to their neck spclst. He prescribed a pediatric dosage of Steroids to a 180lb man, and nothing for the pain that had been keeping him up at night for over a month. My partner has no history of these symptoms, is an athlete, and does not take any other prescriptions. There was no reason for this careless prescription. We had to call the on-call overnight nurse in order to ask for something else to help him with the pain. For the money we spend on issues like this (at least for those of us without top notch insurance plans), I would hope for the bare minimum of physicians acting like they care about and our interested in helping their patients... Fortunately for us, he referred us to his colleague Dr. Shivani Batra, who provided us with the level of service we all hope for when going through a painful and expensive medical journey. She was the polar opposite of Wetters, and allowed us to leave with some clarity, peace of mind, and relief.
