i had been going to dr. bomb for at least 2 years, when he left st francis and came back i still…read morefollowed him. but, after my follow up visit with him yesterday 9/15/2026 i would not send my enemy to him. i had a account balance with his office and i thought it was worked out with him that i had made payment arrangements. i paid $150 3 weeks ago at a office visit, everything was cool, on my visit yesterday i was going to pay another $150. ms barbara the lady at the front desk said she had to check and see if that amount was acceptable, she came back and said they wanted me to pay $500, i said no, i'll pay $150, she said how about $400, i said no, $150. she said hold on i have to go check. she came back and told me they could'nt see me unless i had $400-500. i said ok, i'll just call dr. bomb on his cell and tell him what's going on. i dialed his number as i see him walking down the hall and this is what i said..."dr. bomb, this is trudy alexander, i am in your lobby now for my chf follow-up, but i was told i couldn't be seen unless i pay $400-500. you told me not to let money dictate your health, and you would work out a payment arrangement with me, this is what you told me, but if this is how you are going to run your office i will just go back to the office that you were at before and find another doctor. ok, thanks" i turned to ms barbara and told her it was not her fault and i left. i got down stairs and i thought i better go sign a release of information before i leave. when i got back, ms barbara said i was going to try to catch you so you could talk to dr. bomb but he went in bathroom and can you wait, so my nurse/co-worker was with me so we decided to wait. it was proably about 20-25 minutes, i told brandi he must have problems, ms barbara kept apologizing for the wait and she was standing right outside the bathroom door. all of a sudden the door opens, this mad man storms thru it and it's dr. bomb with papers in his hand. i was sitting in a chair in his waiting room, brandi was sitting right beside me, there was another patient waiting to be seen, he rushes to me shoves these papers at me and says...if that is what you want to do, you go right ahead and i will have my office send your records where ever you want and turn around and walked back thru the door. i looked at brandi, she looked and me and i said what the hell was that?!!!. now, mind you, i'm just released from the hospital a week ago from a heart attack, had all these test, came to get a game plan for the diagnosis congestive heart failure that i just got 2 weeks ago and the account balance was less that $900. so, when i pass the front desk i ask did he at least prescibed any meds. ms barbara said no i am sorry. i apologize to her. i have fired doctors before, but i have never been fired by a doctor. my sister a is a cardiac rn in louisville, ky, said he probably just saved your life by firing you!!! NOT PROFESSIONAL OR ETHICAL!!!!
