Dr. Janet Waters, MD

I saw Dr. Waters on 2 separate occasions while in the hospital. The second time she said my diagnosis was incorrect and stopped my medication. I was off of the medication for 6 months until I saw other specialists. They were baffled that my medication was stopped and assured me that my medical condition was severe. Because of Dr. Waters I went for 6 months without treatment that could have slowed the progression of my illness.

Dr. Waters can barely be called a doctor and commits nothing short of insurance fraud. She would not listen to anything I told her and would only suggest a psychologist. I went suffering severe headaches daily for which I had been unable to work for a month. As soon as she heard this she assumed I wanted a disability claim and said I would never qualify. All I wanted was a solution to my debilitating headaches so I can work. She refused to listen to what was trying to tell her. Terrible doctor.

If your diagnosis is not easy & clear cut, she will label it as a mental issue and recommend you see a therapist even if you already see one. She does not listen or care to offer any other suggestions unless you push her for more help. Not a doctor who cares or advocates for her patients. Also, she was very abrasive with me during her very brief exam. I was shaking and cramping up as I do, and she kept yelling at me over and over to relax.

I was diagnosed with myasthenia gravis two years ago based only on a single fiber EMG study. Lab results did not confirm this erroneous finding. I was given many medications to treat MG with no success. My case was handed off to another neurologist because he supposedly had more experience with MG. He added another drug and plasma pheresis and gave me a follow-up in seven months. At this point I cannot walk without a walker. I fall often and am in constant pain. Weakness is extremely sever

I saw her as a follow up to an ER visit, then to a hospital stay. At the second visit, she gave me a brief exam and indicated the diagnosis from the hospital was wrong. She didn't have answers for my questions. She didn't ask me any questions at all about what I was experiencing and refused to fill out the medical forms that were required by my employer. She didn't even offer any suggestions or advice about what to do regarding what she thought was wrong. I would never recommend her to anyone,

Dr. Waters is a world-class diagnostician. After having coped with an unknown disease for over twenty-five years and having seen numerous other neurologists who were unable to ascertain what was causing my symptoms, I was correctly diagnosed by Dr. Waters. She prescribed medication which is helping me a great deal. Although Dr. Waters has now referred me to a specialist in my illness, I and my family will always be grateful to Dr. Waters for her insight, intelligence, and kindness.

I honestly don't think she heard a word I said. I have been suffering with this sciatic pain for almost three years and after bloodwork, a script for a shrink and an emg she washes her hands of me and sends me to a pain management clinic. No explanation of where the pain is coming from. Not impressed at all.
