I wrote a complaint in my account. He prescribed meds that shouldn't be taken together so the pharmacy wouldn't give me either prescription. He never warned me about interactions and didn't anticipate my not being able to fill the Rx. The on-calll doctor refused to approve even just one of the prescriptions and refused to take to me. I spent hours at the pharmacy and on the phone dealing with this. Very disappointed in both doctors.
