Dr. Adam's was assigned to my uncle at EAMC. As his medical decision maker, I had the displeasure of dealing with her during his 1 week stay. Dr. Adam's was not only rude, condensing, and failed to communicate throughout my uncle stays despite multiple attempts to get updates, she was negligent in his care. PER Alabama law she had a responsibility to ensure a safe care plan and refused to do. Instead threatening him with nursing home as his only option. (He's blind) rather than ensuring thay measures were established for his continual care. She is going to result in someone's death and should not be allowed to treat an animal much less human being.
