Dr. Douglas Brtalik, DO

My 2 yr old granddaughter went to the er with seizure like activity they listed her as being there for diarrea and vomiting which was true but he was not listening to my daughter nowhere did he have in her charts she was having seizures although he witnessed what my daughter was describing amd said she was having night terrors! While there he did nothing except a stomach xray... why? Still have no clue! Nothing else was done no blood work no urine nothing came home still having the seizures I witnessed one and called an ambulance her sugar was super low and she was extremely dehydrated and was transferred by the same hospital peds er she was at earlier that morning and seen him at to the children's hospital in Johnson city where she was admitted!! Had he listened to my daughter and even looked at my granddaughter he would have seen how sick she was he needs fired cause he is no dr that cares about even the tiniest patients

Does not listen. Listed my reason for visit as "Dental Pain". That was not true or accurate. The reason for my visit was my concern that I may be developing sepsis from a tooth I had pulled earlier that day. I called my dentist. He pulled the tooth. After the tooth was pulled there was a lot of drainage from it. My jaw felt so much better and I felt better overall that afternoon. My dentist had prescribed pain pills and antibiotics. I was doing well until late last night when I started to have pressure in my head and the whole area under my tongue was swollen. It felt like it was filled with fluid. My BP was 174/106 and it dropped to 104/52 the next time I checked it. I had chills and was sweating. I had nausea and other symptoms that made me think I may be developing sepsis. I went to the ER because I was concerned I was developing sepsis, a life threatening illness, not dental pain. This website limits the length of my review. Just know this doctor is incompetent and does not listen

Terrible bedside manner
