Somehow my review over on Google of this place was removed (most of them are probably fake anyway),…read morebut I do have a right to a voice as a consumer and a patient,so here it goes.
So I went to Dr. Ditz (real name BTW) roughly 8-9 months ago to get a script for a medication I periodically need as well to address a rash on my face that I thought could be something serious. He seemed nice enough, but looked at my rash for 5 seconds and said that it was basically a cosmetic blemish and then tries to upsell his facial laser service. He prescribed an antibiotic "just it case" it was something serious, but was rather dismissive of the whole affair. I unfortunately took him at face value.
I went to a couple more sessions at Ditz's with a full rash breakout and they kept on telling me it was de facto just spider veins, gave me a masking cream, said just give it time.
Welp, found out months later that it turned out to be a fairly concerning allergic reaction to something that was promptly addressed by a competent dermatologist, and it cleared up in a few days. So forgive me if I can't decide if it's incompetence or negligence that I was dealing with here.
Also, regarding my medication, it was one that I was told I had to take a monthly drug test for in Florida (that turned out to be not true). I got my paper script (unnecessary as well) for that, but then turns out, months later, I get a call from a mediator with my insurance company and he informs he that Ditz's office was trying to charge me over $1200 for the standard urine test I took....I know people gotta make a profit, but that markup is bats**t. The mediator actually advised I file a complaint attorney general if the insurance didnt cover the cost, which thankfully it did.
I should mention the customer service as well: the worst I have ever experienced, anywhere, ever. No basic instructions on anything from the PAs, and when I asked a simple question, the front desk lady barked at me to wait my turn...and their waiting room was literally empty... I imagine because all their former patients didn't want to deal with that BS. Completely unwarranted and unprofessional.
On the subsequent visits, the PA's exhibited really passive aggressive behavior, like holding the blood pressure cuff on purposefully too long (yeah, I noticed...) and speaking to me like I'm an imbecile. Trust me, I'm not the one who looked stupid :-D
Oh yeah, and the Google review I left previously? Well, they decided to send me a cute letter stating, in their signature passive aggressive fashion, that they would no longer serve me because of it. Several other reviewers mentioned this happening to them as well.
I found an old school doctor close-by that treats his patients with a basic level of respect, which is all I asked for in the first place.
Overall, pretty surreal in how awful the entire experience at this place was. In my personal opinion, there's something really suspicious going on if a business openly lets its staff act like that towards patients...it's like they're not really selling health and wellness. Oh well, karma will catch up to them one of these days...
