DO NOT EXPECT ANY SERVICES FROM DR. SHERMAN: My mother was referred to him after a hospital stay She always has a positive outlook but her comment after so-called "seeing" Dr. Sherman was, "It's a real racket. A scam." That's because all he did WAS "see" her: after greeting her with "a limp handshake," he asked, "How are you? You look good. Nice seeing you." End of visit. No examination, no prescription, no nothing! And this was after she was required to pay the $50 co-pay upfront.
I inquired about getting a rebate on the fee, for lack of services provided. The Office Manager claimed the Dr. wrote in the file, "Patient refused treatment." A total lie. No treatment was even offered! Then she said, "The charge has already been paid by Medicare and if you don't pay the co-pay, Medicare will bill you for it." NOT SO! Medicare never bills a patient; only the Dr. bills for the co-pay. She said she'd confer with the Dr. but I never heard from her again, even after I left several messages.
Mom was right: A total scam. read more
