I've been aware of self-scheduling self-pay MRIs for a few years now, but this was the first time…read moreusing it. On the plus side, it was simple to use and easy to get a quick appointment. The scan itself produced good images and came with an accurate interpretation from a radiologist. But while I got the results that I needed, I don't think that this service is the right fit for everyone. It was super easy to schedule. They have an online scheduling form, and it was also easy to get a next day appointment (I don't think a lot of people are using the service). I paid a $50 deposit toward a $499 scan and paid the balance when I arrived. You can choose to pay an additional $100 to have an explanation attached. You get an official radiologist interpretation either way, so I assume that someone breaks down the medicalese for you. I didn't opt for that. The scan was about what I expected it to be. I do have some concerns about the MRI tech. From a customer service standpoint, she was not at all welcoming and did not introduce herself. The office was obviously set up to be customer service oriented, with a coffee bar and drink refrigerator and cups of chocolates. She didn't offer any of the amenities and even tried to hide the bowl of chocolate behind her counter. From a patient safety perspective, she also did not make any effort to go through the screening questions that determine whether it's safe for you to have the MRI or not. MRIs are safe from a radiation standpoint, but can be really dangerous because there are incredibly powerful magnets involved. In fact, there was a recent highly publicized case of someone being killed in an MRI scanner. I filled out an online questionnaire, but if I had not understood the questions, and made a mistake, she didn't make any efforts to clarify it. But she did the scan and the machine made all the expected cacophony that MRI machines make. She sent me away with a CD of the images and I had an official interpretation in my email box about four hours later. I also had my orthopedist cousin review the images and the interpretation. He felt that the images are adequate (so it's not a "stripped down" version of a real scan) and the interpretation was thorough. It did leave out a lot of the technique that I'm used to seeing (I'm also a physician, but not orthopedist), but I'm sure that most of you don't care about that anyway. So my feeling is that the walk in MRI definitely can have a useful place. If you're anxious to have an answer and it's impacting your decision-making (mine was whether I could safely continue to play soccer despite the pain), and you're willing to pay for it (in my case, if I'd waited for insurance to approve it, it'd have been next year anyway, and probably would have cost more if I hadn't met my deductible yet). As a physician, I would *not* personally recommend the total body scans that they offer for people with no symptoms of any abnormality.

The location is very clean and welcoming. My appointment was at 8am, perhaps the receptionist…read morewasn't fully awake yet or perhaps, my customer service expectations are too high. Either way, he was polite. The tech, however was AWESOME! She was very knowledgeable about the process and calming in her explanations. She provided music in my headphones and gave me updates through the process. I made my appointment with a rep. versus online, however, it appears either would have been more than sufficient. The website was very clear in scheduling appointments. No surprises, no medicalese....simple and fast. They gave me the disc when I left and I got my results by around noon! I'd recommend to anyone who needs this service. To be clear, without the contrast, you may not be able to catch miniscule injuries, HOWEVER, I was super surprised that they were able to pick up mine. I feel empowered having this information. Without this....lol....I would have sworn my knee died and was taking the rest of my leg with it! Thank you First Look MRI, Chamblee....(PS. I appreciate the mug and candy you gave as a parting gift!)

I rescheduled her appointment for two days later and called the day of to pay by credit card. I got a call at close to 3 (for a 4 pm appointment) to reschedule due to a "family emergency." No other location has contrast, and I would need to wait until Monday afternoon. Knowingly having one tech in a multi-location for diagnostic imaging is not okay. Now I'm unable to go anywhere else and pay out of pocket because my money is tied up. THIS SCAN IS AN EMERGENCY TO MY FAMILY!!!! STOP CUTTING COST AND STAFF LOCATIONS PROPERLY!!!! TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE ALL AROUND. No consideration for other people's schedules, sacrifices, or medical urgency.

Dr. Linville, Dr. Barbour, and PAs are great. Issues are with staff. I managed and worked in some…read moreof the highest rated medical facilities in this country for years. I still work in the industry, in a different capacity, but I have patients everyday that need prior authorizations. The staff here sent my MRIs to one of their preferred imaging facilities. I scheduled three weeks ahead. Imaging facility had 3 MRIs denied for not meeting medical necessity. Laughable since I need several surgeries and also can't use my left hand and am in excruciating pain from c-spine injuries, hand/wrist injuries, and a knee injury (painful to walk, drive, even at rest). When I call the office no one helps really. When I call the imaging facility, no one helps. I called my insurance, but I do not have time to work on this on my own. I'm paying for this to be done. Barbour Orthopedics states the denials and/or communication from imaging must be lost in "faxes". Absolutely freaking laughable. I know every inch of how a medial office runs. Someone needs to act now, or I'll leave this or practice asap. Call my induce and get the denial notifications if you don't have them! Also, when I found out about the denials, plus one order never received by the imaging facility, someone should have acted then. I was told my orders were sent to another imaging facility when I notified Barbour Ortho of the denials and non/received order. They were not sent. Never received! Plus a peer to peer review or appeal needs to be done for the denials. I mean, do I need to come do your job? I will and better than any of their employees. I scheduled the MRIs three weeks in advance. Imaging facility submitted prior auths m one week before my spot. Absolutely laughable! I called the day before my appointment to confirm and they didn't even tell me about the denials, which were several days prior. I did my diligence. If I didn't know the "medical world" as I do, I would have most likely gone for the MRIs. I would have paid an amount they quoted me, which my insurance covers all imaging at 100%. I have zero out of pocket costs. I would have had to fight to be reimbursed and the imaging facility would have had to attempt a "retro authorization". Not a guarantee of coverage/payment. Be aware of imaging not done at Barbour. Seems like a scam to me at AHI. Barbour ortho needs to hire staff to complete imaging auths on their own. Facilities that pts are referred to, are slow and sorry, but they suck. I'm very upset, severely in pain, and really happy I took a day off work for no reason. Management @ Barbour, please call me. This needs to be discussed. Excuse any typos. I cannot use my left hand to type properly. I continue to suffer daily. Severely! I do not recommend this clinic.

Dr Barbour and all of his staff were excellent. There was some confusion at my pre op appointment…read morethat made me feel uneasy. I received a call from Edward Oakley ( Vice President ) while I was sitting the reception area. I was quite upset and Mr Oakley disarmed me immediately by telling me that he cared about me and about my care. Then there was a FaceTime with Dr Barbour who was actually at their other location that day. I was blown away that both men took the time to reach out to me personally to reassure me and to bestow confidence. It worked and they took the anxiety I was feeling away. Surgery day was uneventful and I felt safe the entire time. With Covid-19, there was some apprehension. It's been 6 weeks now and my knee is so much better than it was. I want to send out a big THANK YOU to all members of the Barbour Orthopaedics team for taking such great care of me. The Anesthesiologist was very warm and quite funny. Because of the sedation meds, I cant recall his name. I do remember his face was the last one I remember seeing before I went to sleep.

Due to the fact that I was planning to attend a Software Engineering Bootcamp, I was pressed for…read moretime between procedure/recovery and class start date, so I decided to forgo a more popular well known doctor and randomly selected Dr. Patel as he was also in my provider network. At first, I wasn't going to write a review, but was urged to do so by....EVERYONE I TELL THIS EXPERIENCE TO! Red Flags/Questionable Behavior 1. The first red flag was an ever-changing procedure date due to what I found was the inability to secure a medical team. This is important because it affected my ability to secure someone reliable and desirable to transport me as once this procedure was completed one cannot drive one's self home. 2. Promised to call me every day post procedure but ghosted me for days (see #4) leaving me to speak with his office manager Marjorie for medical advice. At least I can say that she was very sweet and extremely nice. 3. There was no post procedural nurse on staff so you are solely relying upon him for post-procedural care. 4. He did not know me or the (toxic/sociopathic/desperate) female acquaintance who brought me to this appointment (going back to #1) from a can of paint but when asked if she had contacted him (because I knew that she had) He began to lecture me on being a "bad friend". I knew something was off/odd as I began to notice a pattern of behavior of him only calling me when "she" called him to tell him "I was in pain" or that "I needed him to call me" for one reason or the other...I had to remind him that A. I was his patient and knew how to call him if I needed him B.not to discuss anything of a medical nature(which he denied but the evidence spoke otherwise...HIPPA anyone?) and C. HE CANNOT and WILL NOT QUESTION MY ABILITY TO BE A FRIEND, CAST JUDGEMENT ON THE TYPE OF PERSON I AM I.E. MY INTEGRITY...while engaging in less than professional behavior...OK...So, lemme get this straight...you can call her and she can call you...but no-one can call me?...what's wrong with that picture? I have a name and it's not "Daft" 5. Since the Percocet was making me too high /constipated and opioids are addictive; I asked him to please take me off of the drug, I even had a childhood friend who is a PHARM D /Medical Science Liason to give me names of drugs to ask him for as an alternative...he refused. First stating "You're the only person who asked to be taken off...most people ask for refills!"...(You can't make this up!) Then flat out telling me "No!". He saw advocacy as an affront to his "status" as a doctor...instead of seeing it for what it was...a patient understanding their medication tolerance seeking an alternative to a very dangerous pain reliever. 6. To prove my point, I texted him to ask for an alternative after taking Percocet. The next day, instead of conceding that I should be given an alternative drug or showing empathy or compassion; he tells his assistant to tell me "Most doctors don't talk to their patients!" I was like "Really? Isn't that what doctors do? consult and provide patient care?..." there is no nurse on staff so you are it buddy....but...um okay". I just gave up. Finally, I decided to take my PharmD friend's advice on pain management in lieu of Percocet as she was a Medical Science liaison who educated doctors on meds. Today, though I eat right and exercise regularly, I'm still suffering from large fibroids, a protruding 4-month pregnant abdomen, and the continued stress of having to find alternative methods of fibroid reduction after this "experience". You need to not only understand but OVERSTAND that someone doing their job, is not the same as doing you a favor. The treatment plan/post procedural roadmap was lacking...but you don't know, what you don't know sometimes until much later when you consult with a professional who actually cares. If you choose this practice ask alot of questions, don't be afraid to advocate, get as much information on the meds that you are taking, chart your progress, don't be gaslit into thinking you are problematic for wanting good medical care.

I had a bad feeling after a Zoom call with Dr. Patel and decided not to receive treatment from him…read moreand went with a different doctor in Atlanta. However, he has continued to bill my insurance hundreds of dollars, multiply times even half a year later! Do not see him, he is clearly all about the money.
