Dr. Eric Eichhorn lied to me. He told me United Healthcare would not cover a nuclear stress test (the day I was there for it, much to my surprise), and my next option would be a heart cath procedure. I went along with this, only to discover months later that United DID NOT turn down the nuclear, and in fact, faxed this doctor twice to talk with him on the details of the nuclear test (peer-to-peer) so that they could approve it. Eichhorn's office did not return any call or fax from United regarding this nuclear test----sloppy and not professional.
To me, this is insurance fraud, aside from the fact that several members of his office lied to my face as well that the nuclear test was not approved. In the end, it will cost me over $3,000 out of pocket, because of his lie. Oh, and did I mention, nobody from his office will return my calls, or answer my calls? Completely avoiding me because they know what they did. What professional physician operates like this? They also had over 27 days to get the nuclear approved, and waited until 4 days before I came in to have it, to send the request to United healthcare. I was told they were running behind and were understaffed, and even the person that was working there at the time getting the insurance approvals has left. This doctor put me in a very risky procedure, vs. a much less invasive inexpensive one, to line his pockets with money......DO NOT use this physician!!! read more
