I recently moved to Athens and was in desperate need of a chiropractor due to a pulled muscle, Dr. Anthony came highly recommended from a patient. I arrived on Friday to be told that if I waited they would work me in. That they did, 2 hours later. I was taken back to a consult room that had an exam room off of it, met the Dr, went to the exam room where he did a thorough exam and recommended xrays..I agreed at this point to the $75 exam and x-rays. Thinking that after he sees the x-rays that the adjustment will be done, afraid not. I was then brought back to the little room off the exam room and told that when I come back Tuesday he will have a plan....TUESDAY?!?!? I even ask at that point, so no adjustment? I'm informed by him, that he doesn't take new patients on Friday but he will work for me throughout the weekend and will be ready. At this point, I have no idea what to do, so I go to the counter, with my bill of $210 and ask what charges will be Tuesday. Imagine my surprise when I'm told that the review of my x-rays is included but the adjustment will be extra.....REALLY???? As I'm a cash pay patient, I walk out STILL IN PAIN and $168 poorer. Maybe that weight off my purse will help my back?!?!? I walked out, got in my car and cried, having no idea where to turn as my old chiropractor was 102 miles away in rush hour Atlanta traffic. Let's go to Tuesday....I arrive early, as I'm a business owner myself and I know the value of time, and settle to wait in the same torturous chair as Friday. I ask the receptionist (interrupted her "phone time") about getting a copy of the xrays only to be informed that is an additional $10.....YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME....so as 2pm arrives, 2 people with appointments are taken back, at this point I'm pretty finished with this whole farce..at 210 I approached the counter to inform them that I'm leaving, only to find NO ONE at the desk. 5 minutes after leaving I get a phone call asking why I left that the Dr was late because he was reviewing my x-rays............what happened to working for me, having a plan when I arrive, or better yet why not include me in on the review SINCE I WAS THERE........I expect businesses to uphold a certain professionalism that was lacking at this office. Later I received a text from Dr. Anthony explaining that I owe it to myself to hear his consult that there are results that need attention. So I responded with a request to have that by email or text due to the circumstances, and I'm still waiting. There is no excuse for such shoddy treatment of what was potentially a new client and while I've heard tales of chiropractors that charged extraordinary rates and didn't live up to the hype, this is my first experience with it, and my last..good luck if you go here, Lord knows don't have an emergency OR go on a Friday!!!!!!! read more
