Geoffrey K Turner

Come hell or high water, the most you get from him is fifteen minutes and the wait is usually more than 30 minutes. He often misses hidden diagnosis (mine parkinsons) and never calls patience back leaving the test results feedback to those who are clueless beyond the second question. He is pleasant though.

I was worried about my bones being infected again after two surgeries I nearly died from. I was having intense pain in my lower back. I told him about it thinking I would have blood drawn and xrays. Nope. He looked at me and said " I'm not upping your pain meds". I was speechless. I wasn't looking for more medication. I moved soon after to the U.P. I then began seeing a RN who quickly realized I had developed arthritis in my lower back from having bones removed in my upper body. The non narcotic medication worked. I could of had another infection but thank God I didn't cause I would of died under his care!!! I was worried about my bones being infected again after two surgeries I nearly died from.

His dogs were biting me while he was watching

Blatantly disregarded my Mother's very serious condition. He let her leave his office in such a severe condition thar her current medical staff are baffled how she made it home. Her legs were so swollen she looked like Sherman Klump!!! Her BP was 190/120 @ hospital. And to put things in more perspective, my EXTREMELY private mother gave her credit card to a complete stranger because she could not get out of the car to get gas because she was in so much pain. She drove a MINI VAN home from his office and by God's grace made it home without killing herself or another person. Our family has been begging her to leave him for years. It's finally happening now that to she's in an inpatient rehab. My dad always hated this guy. Now we know why. This man should not be practicing medicine. His attitude is passive like "eh, she's 81...whatever.. " Blatantly disregarded my Mother's very serious condition.

He has a cool porsche and goes to costa rica all the time so i give him five stars

Now that mom is in a acute rehab facility unfortunately we'll FINALLY never let her see him again. "Dr." Turner has ignored my Mom for Lord knows how many years. We have begged her to leave him. Do NOT see this man.

My father passed away unexpectedly recently. He was a diabetic in poor health. Dr. Turner's served as the medical examiner and marked on the death certificate that "smoking" directly contributed to my fathers death, though it did not in any way - my dad had never smoked, except maybe a puff nearly 40 years ago when he was a teenager. Because this was false, it needed to be corrected. It could've been an innocent mistake, but that wasn't the problem; Dr. Turner's practice simply refused to communicate with us to fix the mistake. I am out of state and had to return home. We did not get the death certificate proof from Dr. Turner until after the funeral and after I had to leave, but we began attempting to contact his office immediately. In a nutshell, it took almost a week of many calls, many times being told "Dr. Turner has left for the day," attempts of contact by even our funeral home director, meeting and review with the health department and even our attorney over the course of a week to get him to change this. I understand if he had basis to write this in from what information he received on bad paperwork that got transferred, etc, but the worse part is that he would not talk to us or our funeral home. He would not return calls to a grieving family that was not able to meet with him due to distance, all while our lives were on hold as you cannot due anything without a death certificate legally, all while the bills keep piling up. Our lawyer and even our funeral director (from a very prominent local funeral home) told us that they could not understand why he was doing this and how they have never seen a medical examiner make life so difficult for a family who needs to communicate with him. The funeral director even attempted at calling, but they would not speak with him as "he was not family". I understand this... but why won't you speak with the family??? It was a simple fix; we even contacted our dad's primary care physician, who said she would give a statement that she was never aware of my dad as a smoker and that she had no idea why he recorded that. Also, after days of being told each time that Dr. Turner had "left for the day" (even after calling many times and asking for them to leave notes), we were finally told by his office that, "Well, it is policy that if someone admits to smoking in the past, even a puff from a cigarette, then we record that smoking contributed to their death." The county health department and attorney both voiced that this was absolutely false and had no idea why we were told this. I found information from the CDC that even stated that this was false; you mark "smoking" as a contribution to death in instances such as heart disease, emphysema, lung cancer, etc. Only after the health department agreed to review our case and we continued pressing did he apparently agree to change it from "smoking" to "unknown" as a contributing cause of death (I say this because he still never contacted us or spoke to us). It was an absolute nightmare, one that I am helpless to fix almost 800 miles away. We were also told that he should never have his office staff speak on his behalf. He signed off, and should explain himself regardless. I am a teacher; if a parent ever wants to meet with me, I don't send them through my office staff or principal; I speak with them directly AND promptly. Despite this, my job doesn't keep peoples lives on hold for an entire week while they are desperately trying to get an explanation. You should take that responsibility seriously as a physician. Even to this day, Dr. Turner has never made an attempt to contact us or give an explanation. We have never met him and would really like to hear his side. Until then, we will regard him and his practice as very unprofessional and not concerned with the needs of the families he is supposed to help. We have been told to pursue a complaint through the state Medical board. My father passed away unexpectedly recently. He was a diabetic in poor health. Dr. Turner's served as the medical examiner and marked on the death certificate that "smoking" directly contributed to my fathers death, though it did not in any … More
