Upon reviewing Dr. Sanders notes via MyChart, I discovered he made an inaccurate and false determination In his clinical notes. I have sent two written requests to Dr. Sanders concerning this issue and have yet to hear from him. His lack of response is unprofessional. I will not recommend this doctor to anyone.
