Dr. William E Aufox, MD

Dr. Aufox's office rarely answers the phone during business hours, and rarely returns phone calls. I have been left to f...end for myself in severe pain, when I was wanting to get an appointment, change medications, or have a prescription refilled. Dr. Aufox misdiagnosed me as having headaches related to allergies or migraines, and sent me down the wrong path of taking numerous medications that were not helping, for three years. After doing my own research, and diagnosing myself properly to be suffering from cluster headaches (as confirmed by one of the top neurologists in the city), Dr. Aufox refused to treat me with oxygen and Imitrex (two of the main treatments that my research and the neurologist stated would be helpful) for my Cluster headaches. When I requested to be prescribed oxygen, he replied in a condescending manner, "You do not need oxygen. Your lungs work just fine. Take deep breaths." He waited three years to finally refer me to a specialist, and never admitted that he obviously does not know anything about cluster headaches, and should have put me in another physician's care a long time ago. Dr. Aufox is fine to see if you have something simple, like a sinus infection. However, if you have any issues that are more in depth than a sinus infection, save yourself time, money, pain, and frustration, by seeing a different doctor. more details
