      I wear hearing aides and sometimes don't hear all that I should. Dr. Bazzi gave me a list verbally of why my hip was hurting. It would have been nice to have had it written down. I got some more info from My ARH Chart on-line from the radiologist's reading of my x-ray.

      I only have the best say of Dr. Bazzi. I was the one who requested to see him, because he knows my history and he does. Listen. I don't have I think I put in a bad review there somewhere and I didn't mean to so stretch if I do because I would, I would refer him to anyone.

      He was scheduled for surgery he rushed through, he said he didn'y have time to hear about my clavicle hurting, come back 10 days he would inject my hip and knee and ordered an MRI on my back which I am not sure I can have because I have metal rods, they should call and cancel when he has to do this, very unpleasant visit

      In days gone by I have had a COVID Booster and a flu shot each with less than two (2) weeks before my injection from DR. Bazzi. My injection was postponed as it should have been after such timing was discovered at Dr Bazzi's office. Fast forward to this appointment: I got a testosterone cypionate home injection about ten (10) days before my scheduled knee injection. I sent Dr. Bazzi an email over the "patient portal" to inquire if Testosterone Cypionate injection would interfere with knee injection. I did NOT receive a reply and fortunately there is no interference. My complaint is "absence of a reply" based on previous experience.
