7/19/2022 Beverly continually told me during the visit how knowledgable she was, where she had worked previously and all she knew about MS itself although she 'had seen few MS patients where she was now. I do not know where my Neurologist went, but Beverly indicated he left due to 'money issues' and there were no more neurologists in the building, and no more urologists and the cardiologists were going to be leaving soon. She did a thorough exam, gave me some info that was helpful, but indicated that I had MS in my spine. I have NEVER heard that and question whether it is based on my latest MRI or her interpretation after seeing me walk. I would much prefer to see Dr. Thomas McDonald.
