His car was filthy too and his appearance was disheveled. That was worse than any cab experience I've had. I don't paying for the higher end Uber to avoid that but I won't take cabs because they offer both poor service and high fees.
Hopefully, you reported him? I believe you are a physician, yes? Mention that in your report - it should make your opinion of the driver's condition solid and reliable. (Though having the driver pull over so you could call 911 would have been the best option.)

Uber drivers are NOT employees, they can be anyone who agrees to drive for them. You get what you paid for. If your expectations are high, skip them and call a legit car service.
