I went to the allergist on Thursday to get new meds because I am trying to have a baby and my regular doc said my current asthma medication was harmful to the baby and I need to try an alternative medicine. I got there at 2:45 to fill out the paperwork and was in the office by 3:20. Not bad at all! I waited about 20 minutes when the nurse came in and asked me a few preliminary questions. She said the doc would be in momentarily. The doctor came in with a lap top, he never made eye contact with me, he asked general questions regarding allergies and such, but never gave me a chance to ask my own questions. I had allergy tests done, they put dots all over your back and they didn't wash it off. At the end of the appt. The doc finally came back and rushed through the end. He gave me a few medicines & sent me on my way. I get to my car and I saw it was 5:45! A get home to try to wash off the marker marks on my back. The worst part yesterday they called me to ask me what meds they gave me!

I would change doctors. Get a second opinion from a doctor who talks to you like a caring person.

Well... usually you get a prescription and you always check what it is with the label on the bottle... but since he gave you the meds you probally don't know if they were the right ones or not. It's good that they called you if the doctor made a mistake. I would complain to them and get the doctors name and make sure you never get that doctor again. You can always ask for a different doctor.
