After years in Another city it was time to follow up with a new provider for gastroenterology , routine stuff.
When I first met my doctor I was as struck by how young he was. But then we got into our discussion and I was impressed. He also has that rate quality, a good and confident bedside manner.
Going here you're a part of an assembly line because they are so busy. The good news is, they have efficiency down.
The practice and I started out on the wrong foot as for some reason there was a challenge with my insurance and the office was unwilling to help resolve it. So after weeks of going in circles snd advocating for myself between covered CA, 3 insurance companies and the providers office I finally got my appointment.
There are two entrances at this location. Naturally you go to the main entrance on the lower level. You are the directed to go outside, through a second door and up the stairs for your first consultative appointment. You then enter a small crowded waiting room. Reception is lukewarm. Exam room is pretty bare, could use some improvements..
The lesson here is, persistence pays off, a good provider can make a huge difference and don't let appearances fool you. Let's see what happens with my follow-ups, stay tuned! read more
