How did I end up here?…read more Having dinner with some associates, I was eating as I normally do yet one person noticed my eating habits and asked me what was wrong. My response... Oh my tongue just feels a little funny so I'm taking a break. Immediately, everyone at the table was in shock and said I must be allergic because you shouldn't have to "take a break" from food. Well heck I've been "taking breaks" for years and I've always taken allergy pills over the counter but thought that was normal. At the behest of a concerned colleagues and family, I went ahead and made what I thought was an unneeded appointment here. What's so funny is three people who do not know each other whatsoever all recommended I go see Dr. Ruiz. That's not just a coincidence but a cosmic sign of intervention that was needed and this was where I need to be. I'll jump right to it ... the staff was ultra-courteous and professional. Dr. Ruiz was so nice and explained everything. I told him about my symptoms and things that were going on. He explained the how, what, when and why then we went on with the tests. When it was time for test kit for allergies wow I had things going off like fireworks! Great news, I am not allergic to any foods. The swelling I've been feeling in my tongue and the change in body temperature was only my body overreacting thinking it was one thing yet it wasn't. Dr. Ruiz said that was the only way I was able to take a break and go back and if I were truly allergic there would be no returning to that food and I probably would've passed out a long time ago. I'm of a certain age where I wasn't affected by the peanut allergy so I'm safe. Allergy testing is not just for kids. Don't be like me and suffer in silence, go see someone to make your daily interactions with the environment much more pleasant; and you won't have people at the dinner table staring at you with looks of wonder.

I don't appreciate you all gaslighting me. I very clearly received a call from your office. Both…read morecalls were verified by the carrier. I have attached screenshots and once this bill cycle comes to an end, I'll even have an official record from my carrier because knowing you all, you're going to say something like you can't verify that these screenshots are real or that it's not an official record so you can't verify it right? I shouldn't have to go that far though. The level of avoidance that this office is willing to go to avoid accountability is astounding and a little concerning. West County Rheumatology abuses its power and it's so disheartening to see. Shame on you for throwing a rock and hiding your hand. Again, both calls were verified by the carrier. How would the person have known about my upcoming appointment and other details? Was there a breach of patient information that this office hasn't informed patients about then? They sure had a lot of details that an average Joe wouldn't have. Also if your office is all of a sudden having issues with calls being logged then that's another thing you should use your poor investigative skills on. Verifying my coverage is one thing but asking for something to keep on file that IS NOT an insurance card is another thing. It's just a very odd and unorthodox request. I'm not alleging a hipaa violation either, I'm saying that you requested PHI that you don't need and it was inappropriate and accountability needs to be had. Stay within the confines and parameters of your job next time so you don't do this to other patients. You all are not going to investigate this matter, you couldn't care less and that's been very apparent in how I've been ignored. It's simply just something you're going to ignore and pretend like it never happened and eventually do to next person since you can't own your actions this time to know what not to do next time. All I'm asking for is accountability/ownership to be had and to ensure this doesn't happen to anyone else where they are left feeling uncomfortable because someone didn't know how to stick within the borders and boundaries of their job. Your staff decided to straddle a gray area out of an intention that is still unclear. Once again the standard protocol is to simply just verify my coverage by calling my insurance company. The call would've been different if he just verified that I had the same insurance but no I "turned 28 and we're going into a new month" and you all wanted something to "have on file." If the concern was your office not being paid then you could have asked me to reschedule. It's something I'm not a stranger to and was willing to do before. But I wouldn't be surprised if you followed this statement by saying it's about patient care and the doctors wanted to see me right? Yeah, okay. Once again my appointment was at 10:10. If you all were so concerned you could have called my insurance again on Monday. The supervisor I spoke with at my insurance company along with an agent that was called the same day not too long after I received this inappropriate call said that all you would need to do is call them, and you didn't need anything to keep on file. To anyone viewing this, I would beware of this office. They love to hide behind their positive reviews as seen in other reviews when criticism is given or a patient experience that happened to be negative occurred. I understand mistakes may happen however, this is a mistake that is treading a very thin line of invading a patient's privacy. No one is perfect 100% of the time but apparently West County Rheumatology is since they can't own their sideways actions. You know just like I know a person from your office called me. My carrier knows a person from your office called me. The person who called me knows that he/they called me, office management knows that he/they called me, and I'm sure the whole office knows at this point and is participating in this coverup/damage control by the way things have been going. However, just based on this response and any response you have to critiques and genuine concerns seen from other patients, I understand that this office will never take any ounce of accountability/ownership. I'm not the first patient to say that Michelle ignores phone calls and I probably am not the first to be gaslit by this office. I won't be the last either. It's convenient that this office and its management has been so busy. The person I spoke to on Monday 3/2 informed me that there is an office manager and an assistant but neither one has called me back. Does your system notify you when and the reason given why a patient has cancelled an appointment? I put the reason. No one thought to raise a concern then? Continue to play blind, deaf, and dumb though.

I received a letter from Michele, the inept office manager who is incapable of apologies and…read moreaccountability, stating they would no longer see me as a patient because I left a bad review and because I was "confrontational" in my communications. Apparently demanding accountability and using my voice to warn others of their awful business practices - as a consumer in America is allowed to do - is worth removing their healthcare. Michele, all you had to do was actually listen to me and work toward a solution. You refusing to work on a referral, which Tricare didn't even require, tells me a lot about your character. Folks, steer clear. While the doctors may be competent, they back up office staff who is not. On top of it, they are refusing care to a military family. That tells you all you need to know.
