Becky Howard

She made assumptions about my family history before asking me a single question. She questioned notes from my cardiologist and prescribed a medication in not supposed to have due to a heart condition.

When I tell her about concerns or issues she doesn't seem interested at all. When I go in for yearly visits there is no real exam done. She will take my blood pressure and sometimes listen to my heart but that's about it.

Becky refused to fill a hormone replacement medicine for me to force me to schedule an appointment for an unrelated issue. I went 5 days without my much-needed medicine (and two trips to the pharmacy after her office said they filled my prescription) before finally caving and making an appointment just so I could get my medication and function. She also is forcing me to get a whole battery of tests I did not agree to before said appointment. There was no listening to me when I said I couldn't afford a visit at the moment, nor any compromise to get labwork done for this medication instead of a visit. This is the second year in a row she's tried to force me into doing what she wants instead of having a conversation about my care, and I'm firing her as my doctor and cancelling my appointment. Steer clear from this NP if you prefer to handle your health as a conversation between you and your care provider...she won't listen.
