It was very tense at the end I felt that I was being thrown questions left and right to the point I wanted to leave. I'm sure they were just doing their job but I felt like the walls were closing in on me. I would rather quit dialysis then do that again.

The only reason the Doctor didn't know the history is because the referring provider failed to send it. This was a very positive visit and I am excited for future visits and learning more about where my condition is currently. I received more information on this visit than I have in the 14 years with my other provider.
