I am sorry that so many people have had such bad experiences with CTCA. While I understand that…read moremany people are upset that their personal insurance was not excepted or that the price of treatment was so expensive. These same type of issues can come up at any doctors or hospital that is not CTCA. How many times have you wanted to go to a specific doctor but they were not in your network. Did that make that doctor bad or uncaring and how many doctors or hospitals that don't want their bill paid or would give you a discount. So in those aspects, I don't feel that CTCC is really any different than any other medical group/practice. We started going in January of this year for my husband. In November of 2018, he was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. While we had every intention of staying with the doctors in NC, however, our experiences with those doctors left us with no confidence in their abilities to treat my husband. No, I am not talking about curing him, we are both realistic in what the eventual outcome will be. But in their ability to give and help us get the most time that we can. By January no treatment had been started, three screwups in trying to get a biopsy and being given the wrong prescription for pain with a female name on the script. After all this, we decided that we had nothing to lose by checking CTCA out. I called and we were seen within two weeks. When we arrived and during his first appointment, he was sent upstairs to their urgent care center and then he was admitted to their hospital for a blood clot in his foot and elevated white blood cell count. So far our experience with CTCA has been awesome. They have treated my husband with care and respect more than what he ever got from our doctors in NC. When they see something that is not right in how he acts, looks, lab work or sounds when checking him out, they are on top of it. We both believe that if we would have stayed where we were and not have gone to CTCA, he would not still be here. They have not given us false hope and that was one thing our doctor in NC said that they would do.

If I could zero starts I would. Dr. Henry Krebs is a name that I will never forget. This man's…read morebedside manner is horrendous. He comes into the room to perform an ultrasound guided biopsy on me as if he worked in the damn drive thru at McDonald's. Before he even touched me I specifically informed him and the ultrasound tech that during my first biopsy I had to be given more lidocaine than usual because not only did I feel pressure which is understandable, I still felt pain. This idiot ( as I'm already nervous and scared because of my first biopsy) proceeds to numb me with the lidocaine, turn around and grab the fu#*!ng scalpel, made the incision in my my skin, grabbed the biopsy needle, squirt some lidocaine in the incision, then proceeds to dig in my damn breast like the idiot that he is. I'm screaming like damn can you at least give the lidocaine time to work and he proceeds to tell me it works instantly as if I'm stupid. He literally injects a tiny bit more lidocaine then again, proceeds like I'm not a damn human being on the table. I'm squirming, screaming and was about to squeeze the techs hand off and you would not believe what this idiot says... he states " I'm going to stop if you can't be still" as he throws his hands in the air. I then told him " your bedside manner f' ing sucks and all you have to f'ing do is let the lidocaine sit for a minute". He then takes his gloves off walking away like the unprofessional a**hole that he is (knowing that my treatment has already been prolonged and that this will further delay my treatment) until my husband stood up and face to face with him and told him " you don't have to be an a**hole to my wife. She's telling your stupid a** that she still feels everything you're doing". I then proceed to tell him that what he was gonna do was finish my biopsy and that he was going to stand there and wait until the lidocaine had time to kick in. After my husband had a few choice words with him and he as well to my husband, the idiot got some act right. I told him that he was not going to delay my treatment any further. He stood there and waited, put his gloves back on and finished the job. I forgot to mention that the first piece of tissue that he pulled off with the biopsy needle felt like someone put their fingers through my breast and ripped off a piece of tissue . By this time the lidocaine had time to settle therefore the lymph node that had to be removed, I didn't feel pain just pressure like it was supposed to be. So not let this inconsiderate jerk near you or anyone you care about. Come to find out he was mad because he had been in meetings all morning and got behind. Idgaf what he had going on. I'm the one laying on the f'ing table with a life changing diagnosis. By the way I used to work at CTCA when it was CTCA. Once it changed to COH it was not the same and not in a good way. You walk in and it's nowhere as warm as it should be. I can't remember the name of the idiot at the front desk but she has a short hair cut but I do remember she was instantly rude when I walked in. I matched her same energy because I refuse to let anyone talk to me in a condescending way. I'm really considering going back to Wellstar where I was treated the way a cancer pt should be treated. I could type many other disappointing encounters with idiots here but it will take forever. Just make sure you research who your doctors are and if something doesn't feel right...... RUN.
