Jane Berthet This doctor cannot determine the difference between an allergic reaction on the skin and a case of full blown, life threatening cellulitis. Dr. Gaulter categorically refused to prescribe antibiotics at 2 appointments over a period of 4 days and instead prescribed an anti-histamine, prednisone and administered a steroid injection. After she had seen me for the 2nd time that week, only because I insisted that I had an infection, she was still convinced I needed a steroid injection for the skin allergy; I ended up in the hospital that evening for 6 days with life threatening cellulitis and on a constant IV antibiotic drip. Never have I been so sick in my entire life!
When 10 days later I returned to the office to confront her with the hospital reports, she said with an embarrassing smirk , " I guess you did have an infection".
Dr. Gaulter is adamant about being right and her refusal to listen led to misdiagnosis, the wrong treatment protocol which worsened the infection and almost 1 week of hospitalization.
My advise, if shes your doctor or you are thinking about seeing her.....please find another doctor ASAP!!!
