Coon Rapids Endoscopy Center & Clinic

May be standard, but Dr. Ran blood tests my primary already ran. I was concerned the communication between primary and specialist was not exactly where it should be. The portal communication system was great in that I could communicate quickly with my provider, but it was a bit difficult to navigate. I was not clear on how and when any results would be communicated to my primary. For future appointments I was left wondering if someone would be calling me or if I was suppose to call someone to schedule.

Excellent care provided. Thank you.

1. I'm a bit surprised there's no physical assessment per MD. 2. Medication list on discharge summary needs help; not always accurate.

I answered poor to this question because I was not sure where to put my concern. After the nurse gave me my care plan, she took me back to the lab to take my blood. I asked her why she was taking my blood. I was only there to see the PA so they would refill mu prescriptions. I had no medical issues at the time. She confirmed my name and birth date, but I continued to question the blood test. She then asked me for my care plan paperwork back and said she would me back. After about 5 minutes she came back and told me that there was a mix-up and I she would not be drawing my blood. Thankfully, she caught the mistake, but I doubt if she would have had I not been so persistent. I was not very happy. Not because I was afraid of a blood test, but because it was totally unnecessary and if this was a mistake, what else might be.
