Dr. Katherine Pryde, MD

Went to the ER with what I suspected was a kidney stone. Was given minimal pain meds and an ultrasound. Dr. Pryde said I didnt have a kidney stone,that I had likely just passed one which was why I was experiencing pain. Having had kidney stones before, I knew excruciating pain was not what you felt AFTER passing a stone. My questions were brushed off and I was quickly hustled out. 2 days of intolerable pain later, I went to a different ER where they found a 10 mm stone that requires surgery

Despite being admitted to the hospital for 2 to 3 nights expected stay and initial diagnosis of cellulitis and possibly bone infection - This doctor - miraculously - described my wounds as non-infected without even doing an MRI - bone probe or waiting for the culture (which came back positive for MSSA - though i was never told this - instead I was told I was not infected for 6 weeks then suddenly that I needed an amputation) - She discharged me with no Oral antibiotics at all.
