I failed to mention in my previous post: my cystoscopy had been ordered because I had been having frequent urination, fever; painful, bruised feeling in the bladder area. Urine culture had been negative for any UTI. They suspected IC or bladder cancer. Despite that, as I said, the cystoscopy was a breeze, outside of the aggravation of the inexcusable long delay between scheduled appt and being seen by the doctor. He was skilled, he has a good reputation. But I would NOT go back to ANY doctor that inconsiderate of his patients that he routinely and consistently overbooks and then pushes his patients thru like a herd of cattle with little to no explanation or allowing time for questions.
