1 /5 M: As far as I am aware, the only appropriate diagnostic criteria to determine a patient has a headache is by asking them whether or not they have a headache, and by the patient responding positively. There is no lab test, no imaging scan. I was asked if I was there because my head ached. I said no and explained it was my trigeminal nerve. VERY MUCH NOT MY HEAD ACHING. Yet, somehow, the charlatan going by the name Dr. Erin Owens decided my primary diagnosis was.. headache. And my secondary diagnosis, cellulitis, was not conclusively proven by any testing, which is odd when you consider she aggressively pushed antibiotics to a patient with a prior history of recurrent c. diff infections. For some reason, giving me IV antibiotics to nuke my GI tract for a second time in the week wasnt enough, but she felt compelled to also call in a THIRD round for an infection she herself admits I likely do not have, and even if I did, would certainly not be responsible for the debilitating pain I was in. I told her my problem when she walked in the door and she balked. Doctors like this infuriate me. She didnt listen, she mistreated, and actively harmed me, violating her Hippocratic oath. She should be shamefully uncertified and stripped of all privileges, immediately, before she harms someone else.
