I recently had 3 visits to Dr. Siegel's office due to a cyst removal procedure. First time patient here. Was skeptical about mixed reviews before going in. Now I can definitely say, I would not return to this office ever again. And for those who haven't been there, try somewhere else.
First of all, about Dr. Siegel, I am disappointed about his service in that for a very simple basic cyst removal, which is expected to be done by just one visit. I had to go back for 3 times and still not cured. I guess I better try some other practices.
Secondly, the office especially the billing is a nightmare. They sent me 3 bills, each showing different amounts of office visit in addition to other line item charges (shots, lab, etc.). Upon questioning, it was explained the 1st visit is for new patient so the office visit is more expensive. For the 2 other two, they simply said it's dr's decision and it's what it is. When I asked to speak to the billing mgr, she is always not available. I tried calling the office for 4 times asking the billing mgr to call me back. It never happened. Bear in mind though, the office keeps your credit card so they will charge you automatically. Finally on the 5th call, I clearly said pls hold on to the credit card charge until the billing mgr calls me back. Guess what? She called me right back within minutes after I hang up. Unbelievable, right? The billing mgr is probably the rudest person I ever spoke to, feeling like she is treating me as someone who just wanted to get free medical services. Basically her response is ‘IT IS WHAT IT IS. DR decided on the procedure code. You have no choice but just have to pay it’. When I questioned if that’s the case, can I speak to the dr to see if there is any mistake here. The answer is ‘NO’ and insisted I need to pay it.
Few days later, I received the bill again. I guess I am just done with the office and got my credit card calling the office to make the payment. This time it’s a different billing personell answering the phone. Out of last curiosity, I asked her for opionion on why I was charged different office visits. Guess what? They put a note in the system, saying “I am a patient fishing around…” I am so speechless.
Anyway, this is my personal experience. And by far, it’s my worst dr experience, wasting a couple hundred dollars, not getting a simple cyst removed and got ZERO respect from the office. This is my first ever dr review. Thinking it’s probably worth the time to share with everyone.
