My old primary doctor said I just had a cat scratch but I had to get a second opinion. Went with Dr. Joseph he quickly knew the symptoms and knew what I had. He send me to the ER and got my disease controlled before it damaged my inside organs more then it had already done. I am very thankful he gives everyone his cellphone number for Incase of emergency I can quickly send a text and hell reply with help. And I can get same day appointments when needed.
