My experience with Dr. Streit was okay. I get that she could not recommend or try to influence me in any way about my decision but everything she discussed with me I already knew from research on google. I went in to try and get a professional point of view since she is a doctor and she probably has seen what can happen with people in my situation. However, it didn't really feel like the information she was giving me was helpful in any way. My experience was fine up until I left the exam room. I understood the position I was in and the position she was in as a medical professional but I did hear her talking to her colleagues about me and my situation as I was leaving the exam room. It did not make me feel good or comfortable in any way to hear that. It made me feel embarrassed about my situation and made me feel like I did not want to come back. Unfortunately, this is the only place in town that I know of for women's care and if I had another option to get help anywhere else I would go there instead. In the future I would prefer to see another doctor.

I asked her about some pain that I was having and she went around to tell me it was because my belly is too big. That's why I'm having the pain which doesn't make any sense. I've never had a doctor. Tell me that I'm too big. That's why my legs hurt or my hips hurt. It was Despicable.

I would never recommended & be happy to share my poor experience with anyone. The doctor was not helpful not informative & seemed put out that I had any questions. She rushed through the whole appointment saying "so you're working out you're eating healthy k great." No care no concern & could barely even fake her smile. Receiving a pap from someone with such a lack of care was miserable & very upsetting for me.

Super on top of everything including things that are not part of her primary responsibility such as a tetanus shot
