      Dr. Pittman sent the resident in first to ask questions related to the visit. The resident and doctor Pittman were to review the MRI disc of my brain and return. Dr. Pittman came In and was visibly rushing to share what little Input he provided regarding the pineal cyst that was shown on my brain from the MRI. He shared it was unrelated to my symptoms of persistent headaches, dizziness, vertigo, vision problems including double vision, balance Issues, sleep Issues and fatigue. Dr. Pittman shared that he Is a brain doctor and was unable to offer any further explanation for a cause of my symptoms. When pressed further for suggestions or explanations he seemed to hone in on the fatigue symptom and said it was difficult to diagnose general fatigue dismissing all other symptoms presented. Eventually he did offer a suggestion of visiting the vertigo clinic and then proceeded to rush out of the room. Overall I wouldn't visit again or recommend Dr. Pittman to anyone as he very obviously felt as though the referring doctors and I were wasting him time with my visit.
