Geriatric Psychiatrist - Irvine, CA

"Fraudulent psychiatrist who double bills and tricks Medicare patients. Shilpa Diwan tells prospective patients that she accepts Medicare and HMO, but then doesn't take any of your info when you come in to see her. Later she tells me she doesn't take Medicare, even though it says she does all over her website, and bills me $300. She has no front office staff. Just a light switch you have to flip to see her. She later bills me for $300 as well as my insurance. That's called double billing. She's fraudulent. On top of all that, she said she doesn't diagnose mental conditions and refers you to a psychologist. I wonder why she's a psychiatrist then? She provided absolutely no medical service and just wants to swindle Medicare patients by billing them directly for $300."
