Do NOT go to this doctor. I went to see him 2 weeks ago for a physical. Many blood tests were conducted, including urine, cholesterol, blood cell count, and urine. Having one physical a year, it is understandably stressful waiting for results. I know (now) that the office received my results 3 days after i was in the office. I never received a call, and calls to the office went unreturned. Yesterday, a very rude front desk woman called me to tell me that I would have to PAY FOR ANOTHER APPOINTMENT to find out my results, and that the doctor would not be able to call me. Additionally, the doctor had "concerns". Imagine the stress. A follow up call from a doctor to discuss results is not only expected, but obligatory. It is then my decision to go back. I actually had to call the lab (Quest) and jump through 15 hoops to get results directly and then have another doctor look at them for me. Imagine that! And the front desk woman said she "didn't appreciate" me challenging her and asking why i needed him to call me. This is, in fact, and example of an assembly line doctor office. No care is given to individual patients... the fact that they made me wait 2 hours on the day of my appointment was horrible, but gets lost with everything that has happened since. And this could all have been avoided by doing the right thing, which is to call me upon receiving results. This is what every other *ethical* doctor's office would do. Again, go to another doctor.
