I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS DOCTOR!! I had moe surgery back in November 2015, Dr. Aparana Ambay performed the Moe surgery and I was recommended by Dr. Aparana Ambay to have her husband Dr. Raji S.Ambay perform the plastic surgery on my face. I returned two days later to the Dermatology office where they both work out of and Dr. Raji S. Ambay performed the plastic surgery. I paid for this service through my insurance (United Health Care) , today I am sad to say that my face did not heal correctly leaving a skin tag hanging. I have been back to this office on several occasion regarding the extra skin hanging. When I talk to the girls in the office they suggest I have another type of procedure to remove the extra skin, but my insurance will not cover it and it would be an out of pocket expense to me for $2,500.00. I refuse to pay for any procedure the error occurred by the plastic surgeon not doing his procedure correctly. Today I returned to the office for my yearly skin checkup and the girls once again brought up my extra skin on my face and asked if I wanted to do anything about it. I said no because I have repeated requested that Dr. Raji S Ambay fix the error and he never comes into the room nor does he ever offer to fix it. Instead his assistant keeps pushing me to have some produce done that will cost me and additional charge of $2,500.00. and that the doctor Dr. Raji S. Ambay already knows about the incorrect job he did and I'm exhausted with asking for him to fix it. I was asked to step into another office and wait for the doctor to come look at my face. Shortly after waiting in his office Dr. Raji S. Ambay came into the room and begin speaking to me in a very unprofessional tone stating that this procedure was done for me for FREE and he will not correct this procedure or touch my face. He began talking very loud stating that this produced was a FREE SERVICE and I should be happy it was even done! I was over whelmed with the way he was speaking to me in such a loud manner and how close he was to my face yelling at me that he would not touch my face. I was not prepared for his accusation regarding the service was done for FREE and the way he was speaking to me in such a condescending manner. I told him I was unaware that this procedure was done for FREE as he claimed. I told him he was a very rude person and that I would not allow him to yell at me especially since my insurance company did pay him for the procedure. I stated I was done and got up and walked out of this office. As I left his office he came after me screaming and his assistant had to grab him and hold him back from walking to the door screaming at me. I would NEVER RECOMMEND THIS DOCTOR FOR NOTHING! He unprofessional and is not willing to correct his mistakes he makes. I came home called my Insurance company and asked if they could pull the records showing the payment made towards the surgery and plastic surgery. My insurance company is United Health and there was a record for payment made $1,582.00 which the insurance paid $633.00 and I paid the rest out of pocket for the extra plastic surgery stitches two days later Case Number C533. In any case it should not matter even if the procedure was done for FREE (Which It was NOT) or with payment, as a Doctor you would want to make sure you did your job right. I will be filing complaints to the State of Department of Insurance, I have filed an grievance with United Health and I plan to continue to notify all venues to help inform the general public regarding this office.
