If Concentra is involved you may as
well go to your dogs vet because all
they practice there is malpractice .
We don't have Concentra but the clinic we get sent to has a "doctor" that is definitely sold out to the company.
The joke about him is that when he became a doctor, he didn't take the
Hippocratic Oath, he took the
Hypocritic Oath!!
I sprained my left ankle at work. After taking an Xray, he said I had a bad sprain. He told me to stay off of it for 3 days, keep it elevated, and iced down. While he was saying this, he was filling out the form to return me to work
IMMEDIATELY WITH NO RESTRICTIONS!??!!! I was expected to push a truck clutch with a badly sprained left ankle.
Incredible!!
I hurt my back one time. He said I had a mild back strain, restricted me for 2 weeks, and had me go through some light physical therapy. When I went back to see him, I told him I still hurt and gave him the therapist's report that said I wasn't ready to return to work. He ignored both of us and released me to work.
The next day, I hurt all day and at one stop, I closed the trailer door and injured myself further. When I went back to see him, I was put back on restriction for 2 more weeks. When I still didn't improve, he FINALLY decided to send me for an MRI. Turns out I had a herniated disk. He referred me to a spine specialist who doesn't play around. This guy put me on some serious physical therapy and would not release me to work until he was totally convinced I was ready! Haven't had any back problems since.
I have no confidence in the company's hired quack. His DOT physicals are a joke. My hearing has not been checked in 6 years and one time my vision wasn't even checked!
There's that old saying "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Well, it took me two times to learn my lesson. Hopefully, I will never have another injury. But if I do, I will go to my personal physician - or even a veterinarian - before I go back to the company paid quack!!!
