Hi concerned,
My advice to you is to report this Dr. to the medical conduct board, along with reporting the Dr. to the administrators and tell them what the Dr. and nurse did. After that if you live in the U.S. call the Epilepsy Foundation of America at 1-800-332-1000 and tell them what happened they will help you out by filling you in on this Dr. and refer you to a better Dr. in your area.
My advice to you is to take you child to an Epilepsy Center which are usually at University Hospitals or big hospitals and have your child see an Epileptologist (Dr. specializing in epilepsy) I will let you know that you may have to wait a few months but if you have your family Dr. refer you and have the Family Dr. tell the Epileptologist you need to get in a.s.a.p. they will usually take you in right away. Be sure to get all of your childs medical records and tests from the neuro that you dealt with and send them to a new Epileptologist. After 39 yrs. of epilepsy I got the most help from an Epileptologist and was on the least seizure meds they know much more about epilepsy and how to control the seizures than any of the many neuros I saw over the yrs. Here's wishing you and your family only the best and May God Bless All of You!
