View all 107 complaintsAmerican Medical Association [AMA] - Never listened to me when I told him I had a thyroid specialist, he misdiagnosed me.
March 2020. Had a follow up visit to review blood work. He lost his temper and told me to stop taking everything I was taking for my thyroid. Told me my thyroid specialist wasn't a doctor, and ordered me to stop taking everything!
Dr. John Patterson had been my doctor for 4 years. He misdiagnosed the thyroid condition. Sent me to an Endocrinologist who never saw me before and wanted to surgically remove my thyroid. Surgery was unnecessary. There are reasons we have the organs we have and surgery is the last resort. Once I began treatment with my thyroid specialist I informed him. I have been doing well taking a natural supplement. I did not stop as he ordered, I did cut back. And after a year now, began to feel some symptoms again. I started taking the original dosage of my supplement to what I had been taking and I am fine.
Dr. John Patterson should never tell anyone to stop cold turkey. He never knew what to do about the thyroid condition. I want to heal naturally. I do not take any prescription drugs for anything, He should not judge something he doesn't know anything about. I felt he no longer cared about me as a patient or as a person. I would like an apology, and he should not handle anyone with a thyroid condition. He is no longer my PCP doctor.
Sincerely,

Desired outcome: Warned and cautioned not to try to handle thyroid conditions. Educate himself on natural ways to heal. Listen to his patients. He is suppose to work for us not against us. There are alternatives! They work!
