I had to tell him 3 separate times that I had gout, but on every subsequent visit they wouldn't check my uric acid (important for gout patients) and Carson would tell me that my gout "didn't get entered" into the system. But what took the cake was when he evaluated my kidney function. He told me that I had stage 2 kidney disease. A very serious diagnosis. I got a second opinion from another provider, and...
