My experience with Dr. More (we now think of him as Dr. Less) and his office was terrible. I have never written a negative review before as I have never had such mistreatment. At the suggestion of my primary care doctor, I tried to schedule a skin test with Dr. More. I had to wait almost an hour and then was told I needed a skin test (!) and should schedule another appointment. When I returned, I again had to wait almost an hour (another patient there was also stuck with an hour's wait & was very upset); when I got the test, finally, the assistant so busy with others, he kept dropping me and returning with "now, where were we?" The indifference to patients was so obvious, I never returned for my results but had them sent to my primary care doctor. My husband, who is a professional, called the doctor just to inform him about this problem but Dr. More could not be bothered to return the call. I spoke to 3 other doctors about his behavior: one said we shouldn't pay, one said take him to small claims court, one said let people know on the internet. But there's more.
We never were billed in 2014, the year of our visit and when I had funds in my health savings plan for the purpose. We assumed the doctor had too much pride to bill for such shoddy service. But 7 months later, a bill showed up. My husband called their billing office; Valery, who answered, said they had been really busy and everything was a mess; she never apologized or explained why their problems running a business should be ours. She said we had to speak to Janette. Janette, the head person, was not available; my husband left a message. She never called back. He called again several days later and got her; she apologized, said it shouldn't have happened, and most involved had been fired. But we still should pay as if we got proper service.
Would this even happen at a restaurant? Should a professional be held to lower standards than any ordinary business? We acknowledged I go some benefit (the test results) but suggested half-price was appropriate given the crappy performance. We wrote an accommodating letter to Dr. More proposing this solution; of course, he never called back. For a professional, isn't the fastest call you make the one where there is a problem? Not so with Dr. Less.
In the end, we paid the full bill. Our contempt for these people is total. They care nothing for their patients, as far as we can tell; and they are unresponsive to problems. You can and should do better: avoid Daniel More.
