Disappointed is an understatement. This was my first time seeing Dr Voulters as a referred patient from Singing River Hospital - NeuroScience Center. I was under the impression that he would continue my treatment plan (as Dr Millette had done for years) on a temporary basis until Dr Millettes new office opened. I found Dr Voulters bedside manner to be rather cold, distant, judgmental, self righteous, seemed uncaring, lacking compassion or empathy. He ask me questions and as I answered he would interrupt mid-sentence while I attempted to answer. This is an obvious indication that he was not listening. He made me feel nervous - NOT at ease at all. I dont feel I had a thorough physical examination at all. He did not attempt to look at or touch problematic areas that Ive learned make a great deal of difference in understanding what the patient is trying to explain. I went to this appointment with a positive attitude and open mind. He spoke so harshly to me that I broke down in tears. I was so embarrassed that I let a Dr who Im paying for his services get me so upset as if Im doing something wrong because Im following my prior Drs treatment plan. I realize all Doctors handle their treatments for patients differently. They are individuals but so are patients. All patients with similar diagnoses dont all respond to the same exact treatments. There has to be some personalization for each individual patient. What works for one patient will not always work for another. After walking into this office with a positive attitude I left feeling like I was not heard, unimportant, and uncared for as a human being. I walked in with hope, looking forward to some stability with a new physician and left with nothing except hurt feelings for good reason. I wasted my time, energy and money on this visit. I will not be seeing Dr Voulters again. Im now back to the drawing board trying to find a new Neurologist. My life is back in limbo after Singing River Hospitals grave mistake of throwing away the best Dr Ive ever even met - Dr. Terry Millette. I cannot recommend Voulters for a patient who requires, needs or wants a Neurologist with a warm bedside manner. He is rather cold and if youre used to Dr. Millette this may not be a good fit. I dont feel as if you will find yourself feeling better or understood after seeing him. However, if you are fine with seeing a Dr with a cold demeanor, judgmental attitude and very concerned with his own "pristine reputation and record" (exact quote) this is the Dr for you.

Ive rarely felt so neglected and disrespected in a doctors office. My mom (who recently had an acute stroke) and I were left waiting an hour beyond our appointment time. They left her till last, and took a patient before her who had arrived after we did. When I asked the nurse how much longer we would have to wait, she seemed annoyed and just said hed get to us when he was free. When I suggested that maybe the staff could have kept us informed about the delay, she gave a perfunctory apology, while other staff members behind me snickered. Even if this doctor were the absolute best in his field, Id never know it because I will not visit him again.
