The hazelwood office is a hot mess at best filled with angry, rude unhelpful office staff. The office manager is among the worst and refuses to recognize how abrasive, rude, unprofessional and hateful her staff can be.

I know doctors are busy but so am I. What really burns my ass is they want you to arrive 15 minutes before your appointment. Screw that! I not waiting an hour to be seen. On my most recent visit, I waited 40 minutes past my appointment in the waiting room and then another 20 minutes in the exam room. While I really like Dr. Kazdan as a physician, the wait time is unacceptable. If this continues I'll have to start looking for a new internist.

I have been feeling sick for the past 4 days and it has been getting worse rather than better. I am a pharmacist at a hospital and see patients regularly so I thought it would be worth $25 to get a flu swab to make sure I wasn't putting any of my patients or co-workers in harms way by continuing to go to work sick. The medical assistant was extremely rude to me. When I first walked into the examination room she said what's going on? I told her I had been having some bad cold symptoms that really weren't getting better. She then proceeded to interrupt my explanation and stated, "So what are looking for here? Over the counter meds or antibiotics?" I answered, "No, I honestly just wanted a flu swab." She said, "Well let me check your temperature because if you don't have a fever it's not the flu." She told me my temperature was normal and that she was sure it wasn't the flu. I then told her, "Well if you're not going to do anything for me I can just go." She said no and that the doctor would still see me. The doctor saw me and I explained my situation and symptoms and he gladly ordered a flu swab. The medical assistant then came back in with the flu swab and stated, "Oh so you just KNOW you have the flu, huh?" I told her, "No, I don't know, but I thought it would be worth it to check." I have never been so disrespected by another healthcare professional and I can't believe the way she talks down to patients who already don't feel well. In the future, I would rather pay $50 and go to an out of network urgent care than come back here and possibly see this same medical assistant.

Finally I got an appt with Dr. Dekyi at this loc. I came from the city in heavy rain. GPS sent me the wrong direction on Lindbergh. I contacted the office, explained my dilemma, and they provided me with directions, and told me to come on in. My apt was at 3:15pm. Apparently, I had a ten minute grace period. I arrived at 3:26PM. I was told I could not be seen, and would have to reschedule. I was told that I had been speaking with their answering service and they shouldn't have told me to come. I was literally in tears. I had waited months for my appt, still couldn't get my rx refilled, traveled in the rain for miles, gotten turned around - I didn't expect BJC to be in a strip-mall next to Family Dollar and IMOS, and finally refused service. I couldn't image a Doc treating his patients or potential patients this way. I will never ever recommend this place or return.

I wouldn't take my kids nowhere else. The staff is very pleasant. They have never been rubbed the wrong way with them. From the front desk to the nurses to the doctor. They are absolutely amazing. One nurse by the name of Corey I think it's I'm not mistaking, sorry if I get it wrong she has dreads with glasses. She is very sweet , one day I took my newborn to the doctor recently after having him and the hospital didn't send me home with any milk and I needed to make my 2 0clock appointment at the Wic office.. she took it upon herself to call and let them know I'll probably be a little late because of my doctors appointment. She didn't have to do that but out the kindness of her heart she made sure there was a spot for me and my baby because he was on his last of milk. I cried because of the effort and lengths she went to make sure my baby had milk made me so happy. Going to the Wic appointment I made it on time and they were amazing. Another lady I'm so sad I don't know her name but she sit in the front in the office to the right she wears glasses and she always almost has a ponytail omg she did me a favor as well and long story short she signed the papers stating my son has a medical condition and gave me 30 extra days to come up with pay for my light bill ending of bill...... Not to mention doctor Murphy is a excellent pediatrician.. like amazing. I love how everyone remembers my children and look forward to seeing them. . The staff is sooooo amazing.

Is this normal? I…read morewanted to find a new primary care doctor -- someone who did not also see the rest of my family and serve as a pastor on the side. I found a recommendation for a doctor two minutes from my house (YAY!) and made an initial establishing-care appointment. He spent about an hour going over my entire health history with me. Dr: What specifically brings you in today? Me: I'd like to get my vitamin D levels tested, maybe my thyroid, and find out my blood type for possible kidney donation. Dr: While kidney donation is a noble impulse, I'd like to know what your reasoning is for considering this. Me: My friend's special needs daughter is in kidney failure. Her father can't donate because of his cholesterol and we don't know if mom will be a match. Dr: I'd like you to really consider your motivation in doing this. Are you trying to fill a hole in your own life by latching into someone else's child? People can actually live for decades and have quite a good life on dialysis. Me: (stares at him) Dr: I'm not saying you shouldn't do it, I'm saying it is a very big decision, and you need to make sure you're doing it for the right reasons. Now. What is your understanding of the life-expectancy of kidney donors? Me: I'm not familiar. Dr: It's a reduction of 9 years. 9 years off your life. A decade is a large part of your life to give up, so you need to really consider that. Moving on. Do you want to have children? Me: My last long-term relationship was 7 years ago, so I've pretty much made my peace with the fact that that's not in the cards for me. Dr: I have 4 patients about your age who have gone alternative routes. Me: that's nice but I'm on a teacher's salary. Dr: One of my patients is only a cafeteria worker! She managed to have a child in her salary! Me: (Is he allowed to tell me this? And is this a pissing contest??) Dr: I'm just saying, don't make a vast life decision like this without fully considering all your options. Me: okay well to tell you the truth, I think I'd be a terrible mother. Dr: oh. Well. Okay. I don't usually find that level of self-awareness. Moving on. I see you have a tattoo. Do you plan on getting more? Me: Maybe? Dr: All right, we'll test you for hepatitis C, as well. All right, let's look at your medications. You are on anti-depressants. I'd like you to start doing some things that can add value and make your life better. Me: I do lots of valuable things that have made my life better. I volunteer with Mission: St. Louis. I started a Drumline. Dr: Those just sound like things that other people think you should be doing. It's time to get selfish. I want you to start doing things that YOU want to do. It went on and on like this. It ended thusly: Dr: From now on, you don't go to hospitals. Hospitals are for extremely sick people. Urgent Care is for after hours when none of us are here in the office. But if we're open and something happens, you call the office and we get you in that day, as long as you have a six-month checkup booked with us. And I'd like you to really consider your motivations for the kidney donation, to make sure you're doing it for the right reasons. It's been a really long time since I went to a new doctor's office. Are these kinds of conversations normal now?
