Horrible doctor; no mechanism to review on app
Yesterday I had a terrible session with a doctor named Cassandra Wooten. First off, she was 10 minutes late. That’s ok, but when she finally logged on, I said: “Hello!” And I guess she didn’t hear me because she took a beat, gave me a condescending look and said: “I never start my sessions until my patient greets me with a ‘hello!’” In this weird singsong voice. I nodded, thinking she was thanking me for my greeting but she stayed there staring at me, head cocked. I said: “I said ‘hello.’…uh, ‘Hello.’” She nodded, and said: “There we go.” Uh, OK…super passive—aggressive, entitled behavior from someone who was 10 minutes late with no explanation or apology. Then she proceeded to do NOTHING. She asked me what the problem was so she obviously hadn’t looked at anything I had written. I explained that I had something wrong with my finger, a bad infection. She said: “I don’t know how you expect me to help when you didn’t upload a picture.” And I explained that I didn’t see an option to do that. “There was,” she said, “You just didn’t do it,” incredibly, rudely dismissive. (After the session, I saw that I had received a “check in” email that I hadn’t seen prior to the session, so maybe it was in that email, but there was no option I saw at time of booking). So I asked her: “Can I turn my camera around and show it to you?” She said: “I don’t know what you expect me to tell from looking at it.” Uh, what?? Aren’t you a doctor? What would you do with a picture then? Then she said: “Isn’t there an Urgent Care near you that you can go to?” So, why are you here on this service then?!!!? Realizing how useless she was insisting on being, I ended the call, bewildered. And she had the nerve to send out a fake “after care” notice that listed diagnoses she never actually performed. The worst part is that I contacted PlushCare, furious, to ask how I leave a review and they initially told me I could leave a review here, at the App Store or to try to just find the doctor online somewhere and review her there. So, no option to review on the app itself? Even though the doctors all have bunches of reviews and ratings? So…where are those coming from? I pushed further, and I was told that “if” I received an email within a few days, then I could leave a review on the app. There’s just no accountability for the providers they work with. I’ve had some other good experiences on the app with other doctors, but this one was so awful that with her, and the lack of accountability, I’ll never use PlushCare again.
