    Reception staff & nurses were all lovely people! This was about a month ago, but I've been meaning…read moreto write a review ever since because of a comment a doctor made. I went in to get a strep test because I'd been sick for several days and my roommate had a positive strep test. The first staff member was lovely, but the doctor who came in was extremely condescending. The strep test was negative and he kept repeating (like 4 or 5 times) that because it was negative he didn't see a reason to put me on antibiotics. I was like yeah, no shit, I don't want to be on antibiotics if I don't need them, but he was treating me like I was being drug seeking for antibiotics. I was wearing a mask because it said on the door to put one on if you had respiratory symptoms, so I wonder if he's just one of those doctors that doesn't like people that still wear masks when they're sick after covid (?) The part that actually really bothered me was when he asked me what medications I was taking, and I told him I'm on spironolactone for acne, and he pretty just much looked me up and down and told me well you should go on Accutane. I was trying to be polite, so I said I'd just started spironolactone and wanted to give it a shot. And he was like "Accutane would work wonders." I thought this was really unprofessional. I was there for an illness not cosmetic advice or unsolicited dermatology.

    Beserk company. I went in to be diagnosed and told the self pay rate is 160 USD. They said they…read moremight be able to work with my insurance. I said: Ok, I'll pay the 160, and I guess you can bill the insurance. If insurance pays, I can get refunded. 6 MONTHS LATER they ask me to pay 630 since my insurance doesn't pay. Im like: but I paid. They say: yeah, but you requested we bill your insurance and that rate is higher. Since your insurance doesn't pay, you now need to pay 470 extra (to make it 630). Im like: what? Wait, what???? Is this legal?

    Dr. Hobie and his team are fantastic. He is now my primary care doctor because I'd been dealing…read morewith issues for some time with my former doctor and Dr. Hobie was like a breath of fresh air. As a perimenopausal woman, I appreciated that the health changes I was experiencing were taken seriously. He makes me feel heard, truly cares for my wellbeing, and is quick to find solutions and follow up with me.

    I recently moved to Vermont and I was out of my zoloft. I am medically complex and had been let…read moredown by traditional doctors previously. I have had to fight my entire adult life to be heard and believed and get a diagnosis, so I thought to try a more holistic practice. Dr Hobie started out the visit by saying I was more likely to die in a car crash than a serious illness and I had about 10 years left before I needed to worry. I was pretty confused, because what?? but we moved on. I began explaining about myself and my symptoms and journey to get my diagnosis of hEDS (sidenote: We are commonly called the "Zebras of the medical world" because doctors are trained to think of the most common cause first- "When you hear hoofbeats, think horses not zebras" and we are constantly gaslit about our own body by the medical community.) I get very little physical activity due to my condition. Dr Hobie told me that if I gained 20lbs of muscle, it would basically solve all my problems with my condition. I am literally disabled. That is a difficult feat for a typical able-bodied person. He did not perform any type of physical evaluation of me, other than listen to my heart for less than 30 seconds. I said I was having certain symptoms that I believed to be neurological and wanted a referral to a neurologist. He said "a neurologist is a BRAIN doctor," as if I didn't know that. Made me feel very stupid and unheard. He continued to dismiss all my symptoms such as tingling in my arms/hands and legs/feet, constant dizzy headache that worsens with activity, fainting - (he said "How many times," and brought up the gaining lbs of muscle thing again) ringing in my ears, fluid leaking from my nose when i leean forward/bend over unrelated to illness that resolves immediately when returning upright. Dr. Hobie said "ringing in your ears"--pointed to his ear-- "ear--ENT. Your symptoms aren't neurological. A neurologist isn't going to see you for fluid coming out of your nose." like I was so stupid for suggesting that the combination of my symptoms could be neurological. And even if they aren't, there is a way to communicate without belittling. Living in my failing body for 32 years, its safe to say I have done my FAIR bit of research into my condition. I mentioned chiari malformation, cervical instability, CSF leak, conditions that are common with EDS as possibilities. He dismissed all of them and said "none of your symptoms are related to those. We need to look at more common things, not things that less than 1000 people are diagnosed with." I responded with the fact that I was well aware of the "Zebras" analogy. What I wanted to say was "He would have been too if he had done any google searching about EDS, which I noted in my pre appointment paperwork. And maybe more people would be diagnosed if their doctors would listen to them," but I was holding it together and just ready to leave. He suggested physical therapy at the place below his office, and lab work "to make sure nothing is gonna kill you right now." Mentioned me dying multiple times, it was weird. He said all my problems were related to ENT and then DID NOT REFER ME TO ENT or note any of my complaints in my chart about my symptoms. I cried in the car on my way home. Do not come here if you have any chronic illness. 2 stars for getting my zoloft filled.
