This business is turning away patients with heart problems, because they won't get a vaccine? This is extremely dangerous for the patients who have medical conditions that would be exacerbated by a vaccine. Isn't it illegal for a doctor to not treat a patient?

I made an appointment with this office and was sent a link to join their patient portal. I logged in and saw that the provider took it upon herself to diagnose me with a condition I don't have based on medication she saw I was taking. When I sent my new patient paperwork in, I mentioned that this made me disinclined to respect or have confidence in them and that I would be irritated right off the bat. I got a call immediately the next morning and the lady was like, "she wasn't diagnosing you, she was just making a note," (tantamount to the same thing!!). This is apparently appropriate because this nurse practitioner has been "doing this for a long time" (whoop-di-do! good for you!). Riiiiight. Furthermore, she made this diagnosis-note based on "looking at some of [my] previous medications," which is FASCINATING seeing as how I never authorized my primary care to release any such information, so now I also have to go on a HIPAA scavenger hunt.Since when is it appropriate to "note" that someone you've never seen has a condition they have not reported? Despite what 99% of physicians seem to think, it is actually not their right OR their job to determine what a new patient's needs and concerns are--it is their job to say "hello, new patient, tell me what your needs and concerns are." Pre-determining the priorities in my appointment immediately sets me up for maltreatment as a patient, and I'm already at a disadvantage as a woman of color because the medical institution routinely and as a matter of implicit policy (believe me--contemporary medical textbooks are objectively and openly racist and sexist and eugenicist) distrusts and disregards women and people of color.She then told me they were "respectfully going to decline to take me on as a patient" and canceled my appointment for the next day.That's right, I called them out for irresponsibly diagnosing me, a perfect stranger, with a condition I don't have and have never had, and instead of apologizing, they said they don't like dealing with disrespectful patients. lol okay.Guess I'll go have a heart attack now.On the other hand, guess I dodged a bullet. Maybe a different cardiologist will actually understand their job.
