I've had serious problems with Seema Sharma on every visit. She's been negligent, sloppy and…read moremistake-riddled. I received a radiology order for an MRI, but she made a mess of it. Wrong description of my condition, wrong Billing Code, vague language that would mean it wouldn't be covered by insurance. When she gave it to me, I suggested it was incomplete. She laughed, snidely saying I was wrong. Another time, I mentioned nasal congestion, sinus congestion and difficulty breathing, suggesting aspirin might be the cause. She said this was impossible. She is dead wrong. It is widely known that aspirin can cause these symptoms. It's embarrassing and disturbing that she doesn't know this. Sharma wrote me a paper prescription for Voquezna. I asked her to send it electronically to CVS but she sent the wrong dosage. Getting the dosage wrong is a serious mistake that can kill people. When I saw her for back pain, she gave me cyclobenzaprine, which is contraindicated for patients who have a number of conditions that I have. Sharma never should have prescribed this. A potentially fatal error on her part. I ended up in the ER with severe chest pain, difficulty breathing, tingling in my arms and legs. I'd been fine beforehand. Sharma has very poor social skills and a non-existent bedside manner. During our consultations, she makes no eye contact, rarely speaks, and mumbles in a manner that's difficult to understand. She takes notes on a laptop throughout, instead of listening and responding to the patient. She clearly doesn't take accurate and complete notes, or chooses to ignore them when preparing prescriptions, orders, etc. Communication is one of the most important factors in healthcare. Her lack of adequate communication skills, coupled with her inability to avoid mistakes, makes her completely unsuited for the job. She is an embarrassment to the medical profession and dangerously incompetent. I have only seen Sharma a few times, but she's managed to cause a great deal of damage. She will undoubtedly harm more patients in the future, if her license is not revoked. As a side note, she attended an Ethiopian medical school ranked 751st in world.

The app only allowed me to choose a follow up appointment, this was in response to test results from my primary care provider. If the system wasn't supposed to let me do that, that's an issue on their end, not mine. I drove over 50 minutes to this appointment, only to get a call in the parking lot telling me they didn't know how I was able to schedule and that I shouldn't have made the appointment the way I did. Instead of listening or troubleshooting, the front desk staff kept arguing with me and insisting I booked it wrong even after I explained that their own app allowed it. It was frustrating and honestly felt very dismissive. This was especially disappointing because I was referred here by my primary care provider, so I came in expecting a smooth and professional experience. On top of that, I had been waiting for some time. someone from the office was supposed to call me to schedule in the first place, and no one ever did. When I called myself, I was told I would get a callback...which never happened. At that point, I decided it was better to leave and find another office. The front desk is often a reflection of the professionalism and care within the rest of the practice, and based on this, I didn't feel confident moving forward. A healthcare office should be understanding, solutions oriented and respectful of patients' time, especially when the patient has driven nearly an hour to get there. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here. I will be finding another provider in the area with better communication and a more patient centered front desk.

Dr. Posner went a step further after becoming an internist. He went through rigorous continuing education to earn his diplomate of the American Board of Internal Medicine certification, which is only awarded to internal medicine physicians who continue their education and training while in practice. Generally when you're under the care of an internist, you won't need to see any other types of doctors for routine care. Internal medicine physicians, like Dr. Posner, are highly trained at diagnosing even the most complex of health issues. During your visit, he will gather information about your health, and family medical history and discuss any symptoms you're having, or concerned about. It's typical to order some basic lab work, especially if you're just getting set up as a new patient. He might order additional tests if further clarification with any diagnosis is needed. Once he diagnoses medical issues, if any at all, he'll be the one treating you. Or if you have a chronic health condition, like diabetes or high cholesterol, he will teach you how to manage it and prescribe any medications you need. Your primary care physician is an essential partner in your efforts to stay healthy. Even if you never get sick, you still need to see your PCP once a year, just to have screenings done for chronic conditions that may not show any signs.

So I avoid the insurance question and ask her how much is the office visit, she says "Its $85 to $435" That is a huge gap.

The United States has the lowest life expectancy in the US despite paying THE MOST compared to…read moreother 1st world countries, and Dr. Jeffrey Nekoba's office plays its small role in that source: https://ourworldindata.org/us-life-expectancy-low Let me explain. I've been going to Dr. Nekoba's office for maybe a year or two, since it is in my local neighborhood. Very old little office, been there since '94. Jeffrey himself now in his 60s or so, probably looking to retire soon. Here's my problem with his office from both an ethical perspective, and a healthcare perspective: In my opinion, his practice looks to squeeze as much money from patients as possible, while providing little to no benefit from a health perspective, at least in my case. Details: I have been taking the same mild medication, an uncontrolled substance, for the past 20 years. Despite this, his office still requires me to make an appointment every 6 months to ask for a refill. This is done for "my safety, and to see how I'm doing." However, after making an appointment which takes a day or two, and after taking off from work, driving over there, and sitting in the waiting room for 15 minutes, a nurse checks my weight, height, and blood pressure, leads me to a patient room, where I sit another 15-20 minutes. At that point, a nurse practitioner comes in, asks me how I'm doing, and if I need a refill, to which I typically reply, "Yes, I do." She says "Great! We can take care of that!" And the appointment is done. I'm out a couple hundred bucks to make a useless appointment, as well as some valuable time that I could've spent otherwise elsewhere. There is simply no desire to do what's best for the patient. The last time I called to request a refill, the admin picked up, and I asked for a refill, to which she replied that I needed to come in; despite having visited his office 2-3 other times this year for another matter...I even did full blood draws. But she said "it is policy for your safety, and there's nothing we can do." By the way, this lady (admin) is extremely unprofessional and somewhat nasty. She is this older (maybe in her late 50s) white lady, who is a bit overweight, and has light eyes with long hair, a sharp long nose, and a sharp tone. She started becoming confrontational and raising her voice at me when I expressed my frustration about the refill policy. In fact, she starts getting nasty with me, so I do the same to which she says "Oh my God, I'm going to so hang up." What a ridiculous old lady that acts like an overprivileged pre-teen. Now back to the bigger picture. This is the state of the US today. Many offices such as Dr. Nekoba exist in this country. That offer little to no useful medical advice, that see you in and out like a McDonald's, and charge exuberant fees to either the insurance or your own out of pocket costs like you're at a Ferrari dealer. All the while the average patient suffers from a health perspective, as well as a financial perspective. In fact, the sicker you get because you can't get the proper care, the more money you will spend in the long run...a vicious cycle. I understand his practice's point of view...they need to charge customers more, charge insurance more, because the insurance gives them a fraction of the total work they do/did...and so they raise their total prices/costs for their medical services to offset some of those lost costs due to the insurance nickel and diming them. That is likely one of the reasons why they are wanting to see someone like me or you for no apparent reason, to bill up the total costs, so they can squeeze out a profit. Welcome to the new healthcare world in the US. My advice is: If you have non-life threatening symptoms, use Google, or better yet ChatGPT to figure out symptoms, problems, and solutions. If you need a REAL doctor like for example a broken arm, lacerations or other life threatening situations, look up real doctors in your area before such things happen so you can be somewhat prepared. If you need a refill or other things, use Telehealth. I used GoodRX telehealth and was able to talk to a doctor, explain my situation, and got my refill the same day within 15 minutes, with a total cost of about $30! There are new ways to find doctors using technology and other methods that will save you time and money. Unfortunately, the best you can do for your health is to become your own expert vs relying on general practitioners such as Nekoba. Unfortunately, for little ol' Dr. Nekoba's office, his practice is quite dated, with rude old staff, and probably looking to squeeze out a few more bucks from his patients before his practice ultimately shuts down as he retires. A sad little tale from a small town in the big game of insurance and doctor's offloading on the average citizen.
