From the front desk staff to seeing Dr. Levine this place is soo great. The staff is very polite…read moreand Dr. Levine was nice and very thorough with his care of my feet and toes. Thank you guys and see you again in two months!

Dr. Levine was our go-to podiatrist for many years. Until our recent visit, he's been capable and…read morewarm--the doctor you hope you'll encounter when you have a problem. But our opinion of him has changed. Recently, we saw Dr. Levine to discuss some joint pain my wife was having. Dr. Levine said she had three options, in this order: 1) Surgery 2) An injection (I'm assuming cortisone) 3) Or wearing special shoes that would hopefully provide relief. We chose to try the shoes before surgery or a "shot." Dr. Levine told us to go to a shoe store called Shoe Fly in Frederick, MD, and buy a brand of "Hoka" walking shoes. I asked if the shoes were also sold on Amazon. Dr. Levine suddenly said, "Full disclosure: I have an ownership interest in Shoe Fly." Hmmm...wasn't that something he should have told us earlier? When I asked him that a couple of weeks later, he agreed, that was something that ethically he should have mentioned. So, a once very good doctor has apparently decided that being forthright about his "double dipping" from his patients is perfectly fine. It's not. People have a right to know that he profits from his patients' purchases made at that store. That way, they'll be more inclined to shop around for the best price. That's just common sense. Aside from this, my wife felt the overall treatment Dr. Levine provided wasn't satisfactory. She left in as much pain as she was in when she arrived, with instructions to buy expensive shoes at a store he owns to an extent (it must be a large extent, because he said his picture hangs on the wall). Our experience shows what may happen when doctors "operate" in their own little world, expecting that as doctors their patients will unquestionably follow their advice, as after all, they're the doctor. Sorry, it's a different world. People have more options. And they are better informed now thanks to the Internet (assuming they've visited reputable sites such as the Mayo Clinics' or Johns Hopkins', or the Cleveland Clinics'). And they may no longer blindly follow their doctors' advice without asking some questions. Our acupuncturist told us at our first appointment that: "You must be your own doctor." You have the right and responsibility to question a doctor about anything you don't understand, or whatever treatment options you may have. It's your health after all, and no one is more interested in that than you.

I researched other ortho providers before I chose Dr Bateman at Apple Hill. I needed a total hip…read morereplacement and he and his team prepared me very well as to what to expect. I never felt rushed to choose surgery. From the first visit, through surgery and follow-up, every member of the team was knowledgeable, professional and answered all of my questions and concerns.

Dr. Jovito Angeles may be one of the most inappropriate doctors I've had to see. I had to bring…read morealong my 3 and 1.5 year old. I get doctors are busy and kids can be annoying but when a 1.5 year old is trying to show you a picture in a book and you just push the book to the side knocking it out of his hands and flat out ignore him it is appalling. But I let it go and tell myself he isn't my normal doctor I'm here for injections (for carpal tunnel which I do get regularly) and to see what's wrong with my elbow. Ultimately who cares about my health here. Obviously not the doctor. All he cared to do was to pass me along to someone else and wasn't even willing to do a steroid injection which I have had in the past. Why? Bc he's a surgeon and he doesn't want to do injections, he wants to cut. Sitting there with 2 toddlers, explaining my pain. Not asking for ANY medications or any kind of help from him other than some cortisol injections. And he just says no, follow your plan with Dr. Sullivan (who's never been anything but amazing). Ummm yea he wasn't available until 9/23. I can't sleep and barely use my hand/arm. Also the plan was for Neurology to reach out and they haven't but also get injections every 3 months or as needed! Just absolute lazy doctor who wasn't seeing enough money and I wasn't his normal patient so why help. He could/would not give me 1 true explanation why he wouldn't do the injection. Thank goodness the office manager (I'm sure reluctantly but still nice) was professional and listened to me, found someone to help. A lovely NP administered my injections after me being an asshole, although I think it was for good reason. As patients these days we truly have to advocate for ourselves because there are too many doctors who just don't care and think of us as numbers. I'm grateful to the kind staff that was there and helped me/my kids. And for Dr. Sullivan. I truly felt blessed for him after today because every visit I've had with him has been pleasant, quick and precise. Hopefully I can continue to see him and they don't kick me out for losing my cool with that awful Dr. Jovito Angeles. May he have explosive diarrhea for the next 3 days.
