Customer Reviews about St Paul Rheumatology PA

  • ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪
    So I was a long time patient of Dr David J Ridley from 2011to 2015 when he diagnosed me with Ankylosing Spondylitis. I tried medication, infusion therapy & self injections at his direction over that time, all without success. I always felt as if I was meeting with a used car salesman, fast talking and anxiety inducing, not to mention leading. But regardless, I stuck with this doctor because of the referral. At that time I had a vehicle and medical assistance, so transportation for my appointments was not a problem. Fast forward to now, I have been travelling the West Coast for health, family & personal reasons the past couple years, and I chose to move back to Minnesota recently. Since I left MN has changed some things, and I am no longer able to get MA through the county as before because of my Medicare. And, as I said, I do not currently have a vehicle nor do I know anybody who can or will get me there (50 minutes drive, 45 miles or so but clutter than going to their ornery office location), besides not being able to afford the ride at this time of transition. I was again referred back to Dr Ridley's office by my local clinic and I thought my MA would be active in time to get a ride for the appointment scheduled for me. Then I found out I do not qualify as I said for Medical Assistance, so I attempted to setup a sitter and a ride. After doing so, I rescheduled my appointment to the agreed upon date/ time with the ride. The day of that appointment I got a call in the morning, my sitter/ride cancelled last minute with car trouble that was not able to be afforded to repair. So of course, I again have to reschedule for a 3rd and new date/time due to these unforeseen and out-of-my-control circumstances. I thought at that time I should wait to reschedule my new appointment but was urged to so it was supposed to be tomorrow (7/26/17) and I have been waiting for a return phone call from a county agency that has a ride program for medical transport I may qualify for according to the local community action center. When StPR made the reminder phone call a little bit ago (same person calls every time, they called her the first time patient coordinator, she's always been very nice to me and mispronounces my name every time I seen or spoke with her since 2011 lol)I had to explain my issue with getting transportation thru the county organisation and how I guess I should either cancel or reschedule again just in case they don't call me today. She informed me that I can no longer reschedule because it'd be my third time, I'm like ok that's fine! But she proceeds to tell me that the Dr had already seen his schedule for tomorrow and "he will go ballistic" (her words) if he sees for a third time I am not on it after he thought I would be. I said then I wouldn't want to see him anyways! If he's unable to be understanding of a vehicle-less disabled mother of two with no help or support for transport then he's lost me as a patient anyhow. So I also informed her I thought from her explanation of his attitude & assured reaction made for a very unprofessional demeanor. Like I said in the beginning, used car salesman!! In this truly for the money with a weak bedside manner and according to a 2nd opinion I most likely don't have the progressive auto immune disease he said i do that I don't even carry the gene or blood factor for. Just thought I'd put my experience here, and vent my frustration at what i feel is discrimination against a disability he diagnosed me with in the first place LOL what a joke!? I'll just get a new referral ..smdh
