Mikrut Elizabeth MD at 902 U.S. 78, Loganville, Georgia.

I saw Dr. Mikrut today after being referred to her by my new insurance. My old PCP is no longer covered by my insurance so I had to switch. I take Lisinaphril and ambien which I have been taking both now for a couple of years. My previous primary care doctor treated my blood pressure and insomnia for years with no problem. I waited an hour and a half to see this doctor and she walked in and said what was I doing there. Not how was I doing, or how could she be of service. I let her know I needed a new doctor and I was there to get my six month blood pressure check up and renew prescriptions that were running out which include my Ambien. She immediately went on a tirade of lecturing me and saying I should have checked up at the front desk to see if she prescribed controlled substances. She asked me did I know that ambien was a controlled substance and that is was bad and no doctor other than a neurologist should prescribe that. I have a psychology degree and know for a fact at least a psychiatrist should be able to prescribe that along with other types of doctors. My PCP has had no issue with ambien other than she monitors how I am doing. This lady was yelling, and called me an addict. She suggested I get off Ambien and that she would not be able to see me as a patient in reference to my sleep issues. She never bothered to ask me much else and never asked me my name or introduced herself. She made me feel like a druggie and very uncomfortable. I can understand her point of view if she talked to me like a human, but she did not. Also, I waited for a long time to see her with only a few people in her waiting room. She never asked if I would like to proceed with my appointment to check my blood pressure and she never asked any questions. She said that she could be my doctor but not for sleep issues and she would not prescribe me that bad drug. Then no care was offered after that statement. I went to her by my insurance companies referral and she acted like I was coming off the street to score drugs. I am going back to my PCP for now and paying out of pocket and I can't recommend this woman as a doctor. She was yelling, and rude and very judgemental. She asked why in the world was I on Ambien and since she does not know me or my history I would have thought a more calm and non-judgemental conversation would have occurred about my trauma in life that has led to my sleep issues.
