• Provider didn't really seem interested in gathering information. Didn't really care to ask questions after just stating the complaints documented by her medical assistant. Had to offer to elaborate on my concerns.

  2026-06-11

• [redacted] The dermatologist was pretty bad. She rushed, was impatient, and answered my questions in a patronizing [redacted] tone. She contradicted what the nurse told me (and what I've heard from others, including my PC) without a good explaination. I left frustrated and still with questions about the health of my skin. I waited many many many months for this appointment and I'm very disappointed with how she was with me.

  2026-06-06

• [redacted] Once I was in the room the whole appointment felt rushed. The provider stood away from me and didn't even look at my face directly which was one of my concerns. I had questions she seemed dismissive of my concerns. [redacted] I felt extremely rushed and that the provider barely listened to me and acted like she was just trying to get out of the room.

  2026-06-03

• I was seen quickly by the dr, she was curt with answers and abrupt with conversation. I have a strange feeling when I leave there that she was aggravated by the visit. Or, it's below her to do the body scans. She seems to do the absolute least amount of communication possible and I am always left with a bad feeling, like I bothered her, the short 5 mi utes that she spends with me. I'm sure she is capable and well equipped to do her job but her manner is bothersome. [redacted]

  2026-06-03

• No bedside manner. Little interaction with me. Very quick visit.

  2026-05-29

• Quick and efficient.

  2026-05-28

• The doctor seems knowledgeable but she speaks to me, a [redacted] yr old woman, as if I'm a toddler. It feels patronizing. I don't feel comfortable talking to her because there's no real human-to-human connection. I feel like she's just going through the motions like an automaton. [redacted]

  2026-05-27

• Hard to talk to, I found her condescending

  2026-05-28

• My appointment was fast, quick, and easy. This is a very efficient office. Everyone that I spoke to was terrific.

  2026-05-28

• It appeared I was the last of the day & the Dr wanted me out quickly. It was a hurried visit.

  2026-05-26

• Direct and knowledgeable. Appreciated her answering my questions and creating a good experience.

  2026-04-30

• Excellent experience

  2026-04-29

• [redacted] I talked about two allergic reactions I recently had and there were almost no questions asked about these. The doctor showed little concern and was not that interested in solutioning.

  2026-04-26

• Professional and caring

  2026-04-25

• Dr. Tiao was very kind, professional, and knowledgeable.

  2026-04-23

• [redacted] I feel that Janice was very short, somewhat cold in her demeanor and care with me, and had no prior knowledge of my medical history nor what I was there it appeared. She seemed baffled that I was not there for skin cancer, which is what she asked when coming into the room. I feel as though she wanted me in and out and had absolutely no care about my concerns. I did not even have an opportunity, nor feel comfortable, voicing all of my concerns with my skin due to show how short and non caring she appeared. [redacted]

  2026-04-22

• The quickest annual skin check ever.

  2026-04-22

  2026-04-22

  2026-04-21

• She is excellent. Friendly and efficient

  2026-04-09

• She was professional,quick, but efficient and answered any questions I had.

  2026-04-09

• This provider did not take the time to make me feel comfortable. She had her back turned to me when asking me questions, was quick and non informative.

  2026-04-10

• Thank you for a wonderful service

  2026-04-18

• Great office everyone friendly and attentive. Easy to make appointment . Very professional from front desk to MD.

  2026-04-04

• She was pleasant. I thought tge exam was rather perfunctory. I was in and out in about 10 minutes.

  2026-04-04

• I was very impressed with the kindness, efficiency and how quickly I was in and out. From the front desk, to the nurse, to the Doctor, bravo to the entire team!

  2026-04-02

• She felt like she was rushing. My appointment was a total of 10 minutes if that. I waited for this appointment for over 6 months! I had lots of questions and she let me asked them but the way she went about it felt like she was in a rush which made me not ask her more questions. [redacted]

  2026-04-01

• Very Knowledgeable and caring about her patients

  2026-04-02

• Kind and professional

  2026-04-01

• The doctor is very detached [redacted]. Seemed like she was on autopilot, going thru the motions.

  2026-04-01

• Quick, dismissive, not explanatory

  2026-03-29

• Yes, she was very nice.

  2026-03-28

• Dr. Tiao is caring, thorough, and professional. I appreciate her expertise.

  2026-03-28

• Carefully explained and examined me.

  2026-03-28

• [redacted] During my appointment, Janice Tiao appeared unwilling to fully listen, rushed through the visit, and communicated in a manner that felt condescending and dismissive. I left the appointment feeling unheard and unsupported. [redacted] Her approach gave the impression that the priority was simply to complete a checklist, (1) document symptoms, (2) prescribe a treatment, and (3) move on, rather than to engage in meaningful patient care. [redacted]

  2026-03-28

• I am grateful for the care provided at the MGB Dermatology group.

  2026-03-28

• Excellent

  2026-03-24

• i felt very dismissed by this provider. She did not ask about my acne/dermatology history. She told me I do not need to come back for a yearly skin check, although previous providers have always told me to come yearly. Also, she said my acne prescription could just be filled by my primary care doctor (assuming I have one, which I do not. I have been trying to obtain a PCP for months and i'm on a waitlist for an entire year).

  2026-03-21

• Dr. Tiao is an excellent dermatologist. She treated me with skill and respect.

  2026-03-19

• The provider didn't seem very interested during the visit very dry personality. I was in and out in 20 minutes [redacted]

  2026-03-18

• It was okay.

  2026-03-15

• Thanks!

  2026-03-11

• Outstanding care provider. My wife was so impressed with the provider that she will be making an appointment as a new patient.

  2026-03-11

• This was my first visit with Dr. Tiao. Her exam was thorough. She listened to what I had to say and answered my questions.

  2026-03-11

• Dr. Tiao provided very thoughtful, attentive and responsive care.

  2026-03-08

• Office very well run and staff very courtesy and very professional. My doctor was welcoming and on time even took me early. Respectful of my time

  2026-03-08

• I feel as if I am rushed in and out probably because there are expectations to see a specific number of patients within a certain time frame. I feel as if this puts undue pressure on everyone.

  2026-03-05

• Always on time for appointments and very pleasant t

  2026-03-05

• Professional and personable.

  2026-03-03

• I felt that this provider was very dismissive and I was there for an annual skin check. I also thought that her examination was pretty cursory. I've had other annual skin checks in the past with dermatology in Boston and they've looked carefully between my toes and between my fingers and their examination took a little bit longer than this provider's examination. Plus, when I had questions, I received a very one-sentence answer, maybe even a one- or two-word answer, like a yes or a no, without any explanation. [redacted]

  2026-03-06

• She didn't ask me any questions to diagnose the problems I came to her with. She answered questions with very little information and didn't really seem to care about my skin. I asked her about a hair issue and she said that has nothing to do with the scalp and didn't even bother to look at my scalp, which was in fact flaking. [redacted]

  2026-03-04

• Everything was so rushed. I wasn't satisfied. I feel like I wasted my time. She wrote something down on a piece of paper and that was it! She left me with questions, or worse, and when I wanted to talk, she said our time was up. She just looked at me and that was it, omg, no analysis, nothing, not even a thorough examination of my skin. I didn't understand anything about the soap I should use, just the [redacted] moisturizer, and that's it. She seems very professional, but she didn't meet my expectations. [redacted]

  2026-03-04

• Dr. Tiao, although somewhat formal in her manner, tries very hard to make a connection and to listen carefully.

  2026-03-04

• She listened to my concerns, addressed them respectfully and provided answers

  2026-02-26

• Quick visit for an easy skin check. Very happy with care.

  2026-02-24

• It was an efficient visit. Janice Tiao was on time, conducted the exam efficiently, and took the time to answer my questions clearly.

  2026-03-02

• Dr. Tiao seemed to be in a hurry and spent very little time describing toe nail fungus and potential treatment options.

  2026-02-25

• I found that the provider was very disengaged with us as patients, especially with my son. I brought in my teenage son, [redacted] to discuss acne, and I was expecting her to have a conversation with him regarding proper hygiene, regarding just general psychoeducation, and how to take care of his face, how to take care of his skin, and that wasn't provided. She barely looked at his face. I had to ask her to look at his face in order to get a question answered. So again, she was just very dry, very disengaged, not very personable. [redacted]

  2026-02-20

• Nice facility and professional staff.

  2026-02-20

• Always an excellent experience.

  2026-02-18

• Dr. Tiao is very thorough, knowledgable, and kind

  2026-02-12

• Excellent, very caring

  2026-02-11

• All good

  2026-02-26

• Very Strong Experience...Excellent Judgment.

  2026-02-06

• From the first time I had an appointment with Dr, Tiao she has been professional, pleasant and obviously knowledgeable. She addresses all concerns. I feel I am fortunate to have her as my dermatologist.

  2026-02-04

• She was dismissive and did not take the time to understand my condition. Prescribed 4 creams but did not explain why or how to use them. The entire visit was less than 10 minutes. [redacted]

  2026-02-05

• Attentive

  2026-02-05

• Not sure if it's just her bedside manner but seems dismissive-

  2026-02-04

• The appointment felt rushed. The doctor seemed to be in a hurry.

  2026-01-30

• Care provider lacked depth and care during my visit. Prescribed medication with no suggested follow up. Did not conduct adequate discovery to understand severity or depth of my concerns.

  2026-01-27

• She is excellent and professional

  2026-01-29

• Grateful to be part of the MGB network.

  2026-01-29

• My primary care doctor recommended that I see a dermatologist. I waited 14 months for this appointment. I felt the doctor rushed the appointment. She brushed off all my concerns.

  2026-01-28

• Always get great care with Dr Tiao

  2026-01-24

• She was very perfunctory. She determined that I was there for a general skin check and almost seemed a bit annoyed by that fact....and was quick to point out that I didn't need to return for 2 years at least. [redacted]

  2026-01-22

• She was very efficient, looked at my body, checked everything, and I was finished within probably 10 or 12 minutes.

  2026-01-23

• All good!!

  2026-01-23

• SHE WAS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND EXPLAINED WHAT THE ISSUE WAS.

  2026-01-21

• Dr. Tiao is knowledgeable. She somewhat listens but can be dismissive. [redacted]

  2026-01-22

• She took care of me in a timely and noninvasive manner. I felt comfortable with her.

  2026-01-15

• Provider was mostly fine. I had spoken to a medical assistant about getting a partial skin check on my back and was instructed to put on a gown. Dr. Tiao came in and talked to me about my acne which was the main point of the visit but completely ignored that I was wearing the gown and was going to end the visit without addressing the skin check. When I asked about it she responded "we're not doing that today." I could understand if there wasn't enough time but her extremely dismissive tone and demeanor was so odd and made me feel very uncomfortable. Not sure why she couldn't explain the circumstances and speak to me with respect. She finally agreed to "take a look" and checked out my back for maybe 2 seconds and said everything looks good and promptly left the room. Overall it was a bit of a bizarre social interaction.

  2026-01-15

• [redacted] The provider spent exactly 5 minutes total with me. This is not an exaggeration. She was dismissive of my concerns, and spoke in a curt and frankly condescending manner. [redacted]

  2026-01-15

• Dr. Janice T. is an awesome Dermatologist answering my questions. Right now though I'm waiting for a prescription that needs a PA so I'm hoping Dr. Janice T. can follow up with that for me.

  2026-01-14

• She knew nothing about my history, spent less then 3 mins with me

  2026-01-14

• I waited over a year for this appointment that lasted about 5 minutes. I went into this appointment with multiple concerns however because they weren't skin cancer related I felt as though they were completely dismissed. [redacted]

  2026-01-14

• Doctor was very kind, courteous and personable.

  2026-01-14

• Efficient, comprehensive, answered all questions

  2026-01-14

• I felt very dismissed and like I was wasting her time

  2026-01-11

• [redacted] While she is knowledgeable, her bedside manner is poor. What some may seem to describe as "efficiency", my visit felt dismissive and rushed. Given that patients often wait months for an appointment, it was frustrating to spend less than five minutes with the provider without her even examining my skin. When I asked why she did not look at my skin, she responded that medical evidence does not require a visual examination for appropriate care. This explanation did not feel patient-centered or reassuring.

  2025-12-20

• It seemed to me the exam was very quick. I feel it took longer to take my clothes off than the exam. Provider did ask about any concerns and did look at them. Very fast exam!

  2025-12-23

• It was my first experience with a skin cancer check. It was quick, easy, and comfortable.

  2025-12-17

• She's excellent. Not a provider you (MGB) would want to lose. I hope she has a very reasonable schedule and is well paid. I feel lucky to have found her after having lost my prior MGH physician.

  2025-12-16

• I was very disappointed with my visit. [redacted] the doctor spent no more than six minutes with me. She didn't review my past medical history, and her evaluation during the skin test felt extremely rushed and incomplete. I left feeling dismissed, as if she couldn't wait to get out of the room. Overall, I did not feel heard or properly assessed.

  2025-12-11

• Professional

  2025-12-11

• Knowledgeable and efficient doctor. Listened to me

  2025-12-11

• Waited a year, for a visit that lasted less than 10 minutes. Didn't feel like I got my questions answered. [redacted]

  2025-12-11

• Excellent care once again!

  2025-12-11

• Very focus on the issue

  2025-11-28

• I am disappointed with Dr Tiaos bedside manner. I felt as though I was an annoyance to her and she dismissed my concerns. I am an educated health care provider and I have never been treated so poorly. [redacted]

  2025-11-26

• It was all very nice.

  2025-11-22

• In general, the experience with the doctor was very positive. She is very knowledgeable and approachable and answered all my questions very well. [redacted]

  2025-11-23

• My exam felt rushed. My provider was not in the room with me for more than 5 minutes total.

  2025-11-19

• Left the room as soon as she could. Only glanced at the skin. Did not tell me how I should take the medication or address the comments/concerns I had. Worst than my previous dermatologist

  2025-11-13

• I was very happy with the care I received. Excellent experience. I would highly recommend her.

  2025-11-12

• The provider was efficient but not friendly. She was to the point and eager to move on to the next patient. Somewhat condescending and at some point when I asked her a question she said "we'll get to that later." [redacted]

  2025-11-16

• I'm very disappointed in my experience. I booked a new patient appointment over 10+ months ago and have been eagerly awaiting it, as I have severe anxiety around doctors. I spent less than 15 minutes in the actual building and less than 5 minutes with the doctor for a new patient appointment that I'd waited for so long to have. She didn't ask about my medical history, my medications, previous dermatologist visits or procedures, etc. I haven't seen a dermatologist in 4 years, my mother + many relatives have had skin cancer, and I'm very at-risk to developing skin issues; all of this information didn't seem to influence how interested Dr. Janice was in me as a patient. I felt that I didn't matter to her and I currently feel like I need to see another doctor to properly review my body + file to count as an annual exam.

  2025-11-14

• Friendly, approachable. Seemed pressed for time.

  2025-11-12

• Always on time, attentive, respectful and explains what she is doing

  2025-11-08

• Dr. Tiao is very pleasant and she listened to my concerns.

  2025-11-08

• Dr. Tiao is always professional, careful and thorough in examining my skin. I have confidence in her examination and diagnoses.

  2025-11-06

• My doctor was very thorough and thought carefully about my individual situation.

  2025-11-04

• They were great to work with, both personally and professionally.

  2025-11-05

• This was not my usual provider due to requesting an appointment sooner and closer to home. I was a little anxious but quickly put at ease by the treatment I received and the explanation of what my options were. I wouldn't hesitate to be seen by this provider again.

  2025-11-05

• This is a new provider. [redacted] she failed to make eye contact. It seemed like she wasn't too much concerned about what I had to say. She just didn't, you know, we didn't really connect far as, you know, patient and doctor. So I just felt that she really didn't care. And I like to deal with doctors who, you know, care about their patients and make eye contact, allow them to talk, answer any questions. I try to ask her a question.

  2025-11-03

• no complaints

  2025-11-02

• dr Tiao was great. [redacted]

  2025-11-01

• [redacted] She don't let me finish my question and she continue to say it nothing is nothing not don't worry about it.

  2025-11-01

• She was extremely dismissive, probably only spent about 5 minutes in the room with me. Before leaving the room she didn't even ask if I had any other issues or questions to discuss, she just abruptly said "nice to meet you have a good day" and left before I could say anything else

  2025-10-31

• Treated as if my concerns were not valid. Brushed off. Seemed like she was in a rush to finish the appointment. The whole appointment lasted probably 3 minutes and did not even try to communicate with my son, who was the individual who had the appointment.

  2025-10-31

• Dr Tiao was very professional she explained what she was looking for and told me everything was good. She also noticed that my hands and legs were dry so she advised me to get a moisturizer .

  2025-10-29

• I feel very comfortable with her. She explains everything before she checks me

  2025-10-29

• The doctor was both informative and sensitive.

  2025-10-30

• She was very courteous and professional, and explained things in an easy to understand manner

  2025-10-30

• Competent and efficient

  2025-10-30

• Very pleased!

  2025-10-29

• Everyone was very professional

  2025-10-26

• This provider made me feel stupid for booking an appointment for a dermatologist body scan when I haven't had one in 5 years. She was rude when I asked questions and was not helpful in explaining what I should look for in moles or how I can improve acne. It was incredibly rushed, she snapped when I asked a question, and she wrote me prescriptions I don't even know what for then rushed out of the room. I have no idea if they are safe while I'm breastfeeding because I didn't have time to ask and she didn't proactively mention [redacted] She said I don't have to come back if there is no family history of skin cancer even though I went tanning weekly in high school and want to stay ahead of any risks. I felt uncomfortable and she truly made me feel stupid even though I am a very competent well educated woman.

  2025-10-23

• She is extremely thorough with her exams, and is very kind and has great bedside manner! I have always felt heard and seen with any suspicious moles (i have over 50 moles) she biopsy's them to make sure they're not skin cancer and makes my mind at ease. She is the best dermatologist I've ever had very intelligent and great listener highly recommend.

  2025-10-23

• Dr. Tiao is very thorough, professional and kind. She patiently answered all my questions. She is an excellent physician.

  2025-10-22

• My visit felt rushed. I was with this provider less than 10 minutes. It was the first time meeting her and I left without feeling any kind of rapport with her. She is obviously a good physician, having done a thorough skin check, but I'm looking for more than that with a provider.

  2025-10-21

• Everything was great

  2025-10-15

• She's a great doctor. I have only positive things to say. She also has a sense of humor, which is nice.

  2025-10-15

• She was extremely dismissive and did not listen well! I read my care notes and things written were not said - for instance i said "I workED" in healthcare PREVIOUSLY not "I work in healthcare " I also was recently diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis on top of my osteoarthritis and my rheumatologist based this on blood test he ran - no biopsy on foot - she said it's a fungus - and when i shared what rheumatologist said, she said i'm not going to have you challenge me!!!!! I was taken back by such unprofessionalism by a doctor. [redacted]

  2025-10-14

• Dr.Tiao listened to my concerns and offered her advise. She took car of one pre-cancerous growth expertly.

  2025-10-09

• She was calm , patient and listened to me - thorough exam. I really like her as a provider

  2025-10-09

• Very pleased with Dr. Tiao

  2025-10-08

• The provider seemed rushed and annoyed at my questions/comments.

  2025-10-08

• Dr. Tiao was caught up on any procedures I had previously undergone. Reassured me that enough time had passed since procedure to indicate that there was no cause for concern.

  2025-10-08

• I just feel like it was very quick. Maybe she was very busy, but I just don't feel like I got to ask the questions and her knowledge that I would have liked to have had. Thank you.

  2025-10-16

• The doctor's doesn't project the most caring attitude; minimal communication

  2025-10-09

• Very specific and professional.

  2025-10-08

• Dr. Tiao was very thorough in examining and explaining my issue and very caring in treating me.

  2025-10-06

• This was our first time meeting this provider as all the other dermatologists that we've met prior, have left. The provider didn't know my child's background and was giving me a hard time with the medical ointments and their uses. NOTE: these were prescribed a year ago, and I am not a medical professional. Furthermore, the list of ointments and medications were no longer listed in his patient gateway profile.

  2025-10-01

• Dr. Did not listen to my concerns.

  2025-10-01

• Courteous, informative. I was happy with care

  2025-09-30

• Not very communicative

  2025-09-30

• Visit delayed 3 weeks due to her illness. No one reached out to offer prescription refill to span the time.

  2025-09-20

• I wasn't sure how to answer the question about how the nurses were speaking to the doctors. I wasn't in any major acute scenario where I would have known that answer, but I would assume there was healthy enough communication there. Otherwise, I don't remember whether the nurse asked me about my prescriptions. She very well may have. That's all. Excellent service, direct, assertive, informative, courteous, kind. Thank you very much.

  2025-09-15

• Dr. Tiao was very patient, very caring, very knowledgeable about my case, answered all of my questions, was kind and supportive because I was scared to have a melanoma. She's been really reassuring and I really appreciate it.

  2025-09-15

• She is very helpful and attentive

  2025-09-11

• Would have liked some attention to previous cellulitis, Wound experience and why it is better to use petroleum rather than clams.

  2025-09-10

• Excellent care.

  2025-09-10

• She was abrupt and seemed put out with any questions I asked . If she took 3 minutes to examine my skin it was a lot. Very disappointed in her manner and examination.

  2025-09-04

• This was a sick visit. I was given an appointment within 48hrs. The physician was excellent, very knowledgeable and eased my concerns.

  2025-09-04

• I found this provider to be short, dismissive and disinterested. Her bedside manner was just subpar, [redacted] It was all very subtle she technically answered my questions but her demeanor and facial expression and tone of voice was just uninviting and dismissive. [redacted]

  2025-09-03

• I was taken as soon as I arrived..everyone was friendly.....Nurse..&Dr. Tiao performed ED& C...& I was able to be on my way home....even before my appointment...it was excellent care.....:)

  2025-09-05

• Very pleased with the doctor and VERY pleased with the nurse. She was EXCELLENT. I was alone with my handicapped daughter and this nurse OVER EXTENDED herself in trying to help me.

  2025-09-05

• I had an appointment with dermatologist Janice Tao, and while she listened to my concerns, I felt like my opinions didn't really matter. I mentioned that the creams and ointments I had tried weren't effective for me, but she seemed set in her views and didn't seem to take my experiences into account. It felt like she was saying, "I'm the expert, so I know best," rather than working together with me. [redacted] Overall, I left the appointment feeling misunderstood and overlooked. [redacted] I ended up feeling like my concerns weren't really being listened to, and the interaction and visit felt very contentious and pointless.

  2025-09-04

• She was not my usual provider for dermatology. I was concerned about a cariotosis? On my back. [redacted] I felt she had no time for me she told me the growth was fine and didn't need treatment in a curt manner. I felt I was inconveniencing her. She didn't make eye contact.

  2025-08-27

• This appointment was to check one mole.

  2025-08-27

• The Doctor was very nice and professional...

• The provider is always courteous, extremely nice and accommodating because I am blind. She goes out of her way to explain what is going on and how best I should continue my care.

• She is caring and competant

• I would like for the healthcare provider to stay the same because they work with people well, they know how to speak to people and provide the care you deserve. Okay

• The appointment felt a bit rushed. There were a few things that were not clear, [redacted]

• I was grateful for the thoughtful care and attention Dr Tiao gave to my concerns before the procedure. However, the treatment itself being so startling, I did not recover sufficiently to ask any after- care questions and so left stunned, and not clear on anything specific that might be recommended. I therefore was sorry not to receive a print- out of follow-up information or after-care and do not recall being offered any. A print-out works best for me. I did think that the provision of chaperone service was a good addition, just for support.

• This provider was not my regular dermatologist so I understand she would not know me as well. However, she did not seem to read my record before seeing me, and while she answered my questions, she was not encouraging discussion or forthcoming with information that might be helpful. Her demeanor was somewhat dismissive.

• This is the first time I have ever left a poor review for a physician. While this provider was soft-spoken, her demeanor felt aloof and dismissive. I have curly hair and, over the past year, have been experiencing significant hair loss. Although it may appear that I still have a full head of hair, I know my hair and can recognize when I am losing more than usual. She recommended Rogaine, which other doctors have suggested before. However, given my hair type and the amount I would need to use, the cost would be too high for me. When I explained this, she looked at me as though I had said something absurd, then searched Amazon for a six-month supply of generic minoxidil and broke down the cost using only the information on the label, which, in my experience, is not always accurate. I felt so ashamed I had brought up finances. Yet, I felt even more dismissed when we talked about my migraine medications, in particular, triptans, which I take for migraine attacks. She suggested I stop taking it to see if my hair improved, then made a passive comment that "some people's migraines are really horrible," while speaking to someone who has lived with migraines her entire life and is finally grateful to have found relief with her current treatment. While I understand neurology is not her specialty, I would have appreciated being asked directly about my experiences. Overall, I left the visit feeling unheard, uncomfortable, and dismissed. My 15-minute appointment ended after only 8 minutes, and I walked away feeling embarrassed and dissatisfied with the care I received.
