Plus, this site only mentions Dr. Robinson. She asked if I had been there before. I said no. She asked for my name and D.O.B. I asked why she asked (since I had not been there before I knew she would not find me in their system). She said if I had been to see any doctor in the area they would not be able to see me. She also told me that the first appointment with him was telemedicine. What? So how is that going to help him see what is going on with me physically - like touching my stomach area?

Thank God I found Dr Robinson who sent me to the Mayo Hospital In Florida, that's when I met Dr Bowers and they let me work out my own schedule and did tests back to back instead of running around like before to all kinds of doctors . Achalasia was healed but Dr Stephan Bowers forever grateful and when I got home he even supported me to tell the doctors to give me a test when they did not think throwing up blood and screaming the worst pain in my life just by drinking water was valid I got a GI tear and they wanted to send me home even after I showed them pictures of the blood of just one hospital tray but they said I wasn't Anemic from blood test enough ???????? What ? I have a tear ? I called Dr Bowers and he had the brains to tell them give her a endoscopic !! Then my other doctor on call demands who fixed me??? Then says " I can do it today but I want all the doctors eyes on you " Wow , even doctors came in to meet me or show me inventions As a woman in Fremont three one nice doctor out and said" she needs her rest" But he was a Happy Doctor wanting you help out patients in a whole different field .

She took a brief history, and we discussed who had referred me and why. After documenting the information, she let Dr. Nina Nandy know-I was available and Dr. Nandy came in and introduced herself, and we began to converse. She is very laid-back, yet very professional, in a comfortable kind of way. She listens very carefully and asks appropriate details. After hearing my history, she agreed with my primary care physician that it would benefit me to have some follow up procedures. We discussed her thoughts. She then told me about the preparation required, and said I would be receiving paperwork that would review everything. I expected her to have me call a scheduler or stop by the front desk to schedule, but she actually went in to the calendar and gave me some available dates and scheduled it herself. I worked in healthcare myself for well over 40 years, so it's so nice when you find physicians that are down to earth. I found that with my new primary care physician and both physicians that she has referred me to!!!!! All have been remarkably nice and caring -yet very professional, and competent .

It turns out upon receiving and reviewing the paperwork that I was rushed out the door in a manner contrary to their established procedures to get another patient in. I was sent home with paperwork saying everything had gone well, however the nurse was admonishing me before wheeling me out because, according to the story they were trying to sell me, I had a blockage that negatively affected the procedure. The truth, revealed at the ER about 30 minutes later, and in the paperwork I obtained from the center after submitting an information request, is that they had aspirated my lung and rushed me out the door and there are even documents from the RN and the CRNA that contradict each other regarding my vitals at the exact same time, suggesting an attempt to falsify records. Before I was discharged, they did not properly check my vitals, which the last time they had been checked were still well below my baseline. My wheezing was audible from across the room to others, but the medical professionals I entrusted with my care were too busy rushing to the next patient to hear and react. Their focus was not on my well-being but rather on their case load. They have admitted these failures since but failed to follow through on promises to ensure this can't happen to others and to communicate to me a proposed resolution. I was told it would take four weeks. Now I'm being told to be patient and wait another 5 weeks (or more) I have lung damage, and I'm weakened after my hospital stay. My family was traumatized by the ordeal. They assured me that they were conducting an investigation and taking action to ensure this doesn't happen to others in the future, but five weeks later, my bills are piling up and the only person involved who seemed to care has been forbidden to speak to me moving forward. My biggest regret in this is that I did not take action to warn others sooner. You might not have a lot of options for where you get your procedure done, but I would strongly caution you to watch these folks like a hawk. Ask them how long you will be monitored after the procedure, and ensure you have returned to your baseline before you let them send you home!
