High Point Ears Nose & Throat

My daughter delivered by C-Section in December of 2008. Shortly after the delivery, she began to lose her eyesight. Everyone was at a loss at to what was happening. A lot of tests were performed and the last was an MRI. She was referred to Dr. Sater. He ordered the MRI but came in early in the morning to tell my daughter that he felt that is was probably the early indication of MS and he was putting her on a massive dose of steroids. The MRI results came back negative for MS and we never saw Dr. Sater again. She and I were both devastated by the bomb he dropped and left especially in lieu of the fact that she should be enjoying the first days of her new baby's life. Four months later, she found herself and HP Regional again and was transported to Duke for another medical condition. When we shared the information about the massive dose of steroids, we were informed that she should have never received that dosage and the steroids probably aggravated her vision problems.



No doctor is perfect, that's for sure. BUT...the lack of compassion after delivering what could have potentially been horrible news was horrible.
