Terrible bed side manner, condescending, run!!
I had my 15-year-old in today for a colonoscopy and endoscopy. I expected someone to come and sit down with me for five minutes and really explain things. Instead he handed me some papers and act very annoyed with any questions.

Dr. Poole diagnosed me with ulcerative colitis when I was 17. He may be helpful with minor medical issues but if you have a chronic illness DO NOT GO TO HIM! He would not listen to me when I told him the medicine wasn’t working and I just kept getting sicker. Less than four years later I finally went to a new gastroenterologist who had me hospitalized because I had gotten so sick. I absolutely would not recommend him.

So my Mother asked his staff that when the Doctor finally sees her, after his medical assistants and every one else has yalked yo her that he be up to speed about her issues. But when he comes into the room that’s when he starts reading over her file. So not only does he have us wait (which I know is normal) but right after a biopsy a patient wants to know if they have cancer or not ASAP. He didn’t appreciate at all the fear and anticipation we had been through. He was unkind and unempathic.

Dr Poole is so kind, patient and listens. He's been my doctor for many years. Because he is so good at his job its a little hard to get in to see him but the wait is well worth it.

My initial interaction with Dr Poole left me feeling empty, unsupported, and confused about my condition. When I was diagnosed, it was announced matter-of-factly, without sensitivity, as if I was being told I needed to change a tire on my car. He didnt leave 2 minutes for me to process and ask questions before he was out the door. However, after formally arranging time with him, he seemed very knowledge about Crohns and was capable of answering my questions and settling my fears. Proficient.
