Good
Dr. Mysiw and staff are the best
Dr.Mysiw is a great provider. He really loves his job and cares about his patients. He also cares about Inpatient and other department patients. He Is always willing to help whenever the hospital and department needs him. He's very good at his jobs. It's just very frustrating that the people in charge of his and all departments at OSU hiring department. The reason I say that is if more workers were hired then the doctors could have more time for current patients. All the patients in every department are frustrated by this. If our doctors are overloaded then we can't see them as much which makes treatment plans slow down and we have to start over. Many department patients are frustrated especially the emergency room. But it's very frustrating to need to see your doctor or want to try to start a plan put into place because it can't be done. That's due to the lack of hired doctors in the departments to help.
Listens to my concerns. Very considerate. Offers health options when available. Understands me. I don't want to lose this provider as my Doctor.
Dr.Mysiw is the best Doctor I have, or extremely close with Dr.Klatie. My Neurologist is I'd say just as important, and she's a great doctor. Dr.Misue has usually heard me out full but the last appointment I was basically told the application was over after 30 minutes "give or take", Dr.Mysiw is a great Doctor whom has been 1 of the people who had helped me survive throughout the years and I appreciate that and everything that The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center has done for me... Thank you everyone at the Center!
