A patient, empathetic,  thoughtful and thorough doctor that listens.  She has been our family doctor for more than 5 years.  We recommend her highly.

Overall Rating: 1.0 2017-08-08

Beware of this practice! Their business practices are deceptive and dishonest to their patients. I went in for a routine physical that was covered 100% under my insurance plan. I ended up being charged for an office visit and procedures that I was unaware I was receiving. When I followed up with my insurance company they said, "This is a new scam that some doctors offices are doing because they don't make very much money on just doing a physical so they find a way to charge you for another service while you are there. There is nothing we can do to protect you, we just recommend you find another practice that doesn't engage in these behaviors."

So I followed up with the office directly to see if this indeed was what they were doing and they confirmed that even thought it is "shady" (yes that is the word the office manager used) it is a legal practice insurance companies allow us to do. The way they got me was to ask, "So how is everything going?" at the beginning of my appointment. If you give your medical provider ANY information about your health then they can charge you for an office visit. So I asked the office manager point blank, "Are you saying that I should withhold medical information from my provider?" and she responded yes, if you want to just have a physical. If you tell them anything about your health then you are now in an office visit. I have never heard of a doctor's office telling patients to withhold medical information from their provider. Not knowing this I gave her something I wanted her to pay special attention to in my physical she said it doesn't give me any cause for concern but just keep an eye on it and let me know if anything changes. That one single sentence changed my physical from preventative to diagnostic. I was unaware that this single sentence saying "I'm not concerned but keep an eye on it" I was going to be charged large amounts for. I did not know that "keep an eye on it" was a diagnosis. The nurse was adamant this was a diagnosis. So, I asked the office manager, "So is it common practice at this doctor's office for physicians not to tell patients when they are doing something the patient will be charged for?" and her response was No, we do not have to tell patients and it is not common practice here.

They eventually refunded my copay but it took a week of calling and four messages to get my call returned. They would not correct what was billed to my insurance so even though they gave me my copay back I was still responsible for this ridiculous claim. The office manager was nice in helping me with this and said she understood, agreed with me, and was sorry but would not fix it and confirmed that the office does engage in these deceptive behaviors. I would definitely avoid this office at all costs!
