    love dr a and his wife denise. he was an amazing dr. people should not judge his wife just because…read moreshe went by the book! i would still have dr a as my doctor if i could. xoxoxo r.i.p

    Dr. Austracius Octavian was my doctor over 30yrs, the problem is his wife she thinks she is a Dr…read more and runs the office canceling his patients including myself saying they no longer take my insurance and I have to find another doctor, she will not give me my folder and then told me if I want copies it's .75 a copy. She lied, they still takes my insurance she has to submit paper work and the wife refuses to do it. So, she said they no longer take my insurance and it was a lie. It's a shame he used to be a good doctor , until his wife ran the business to the ground and thinks she is a doctor and she is not . If you want to file a complaint, the information is listed below. BACKGROUND - WHAT IS HIPAA? A federal standard for protecting privacy of individually identifiable health information has been established by Congress. This privacy standard is known as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, or HIPAA. More information on HIPAA and the Privacy Rule can be found at the Office of Civil Rights website, www.hhs.gov/ocr. HIPAA regulates health plans, health care clearinghouses, and any health care provider who conducts certain health care transactions electronically. The County of Orange Health Care Agency and some County Executive Office programs are included in the HIPAA definitions. The HIPAA Privacy Rule allows you to make a complaint regarding violation of your privacy rights by a covered entity. If you believe that a person, an agency or program covered under HIPAA violated your or someone else's health information privacy rights, or committed another violation of the Privacy Rule, you may file a complaint with the County of Orange Privacy Officer. The Privacy Officer may receive and investigate complaints against County programs which must obey the Privacy Rule. Your complaint must: (1) be filed in writing, either on paper or electronically; (2) name the entity (person, program or agency) that is the subject of the complaint; (3) describe the acts or omissions believed to be in violation of the applicable requirements of the Privacy Rule; and (4) be filed within 180 days of when you knew that the act or omission complained of occurred. Any alleged violation must have occurred on or after April 14, 2003. COMPLAINTS - GENERAL INFORMATION Anyone can file written complaints with the Privacy Officer by mail, fax, or email. If you need help filing a complaint or have a question about the complaint form, please call (714) 834-5172. Complaints should be sent to the attention of the Deputy County Privacy Officer. You can submit your complaint in any written format. However, we recommend that you use the County HIPAA Complaint Form, which can be found on our web site at www.ocgov.com/hipaa/forms.htm or you may call the Deputy County Privacy Officer at (714) 834-5172 and have a copy mailed to you. HIPAA prohibits the alleged violating party from taking retaliatory action against anyone for filing a complaint with the Office for Civil Rights. You should notify the Privacy Officer immediately if you believe you or anyone else is the victim of any retaliatory action. If you require an answer regarding a general health information privacy question, please view the Frequently Asked Questions at the County of Orange website, www.ocgov.com/hipaa/faqs.htm.

    My wife and I have been going to Lindenhurst X-Ray for many years. We have all our testing…read more(Mammography, Ultrasounds, Xrays, CT & MRI scans) there. The staff and radiologists have always been very friendly and professional. Recommend this radiology facility to all my friends and family.

    I am probably going to die as a result of a cat scan I received at this place. The lady pushed me…read morethrough the machine twice the first time by mistake, god only knows how much radiation I received. Not to mention she didn't even check the sheet to see I was allergic to hey. I know this because she asked me if I was allergic to shelfish only which i did not have crossed off and she would have known this if she had looked at the sheet I had signed outside the office. If you are reading this mam you have probably cost me my life. I am suffering tremendously losing weight and sweating every night for the past month. I cannot go to the bathroom for ten days and I do not absorb my food intake because that radiation has damaged my neurological system. I woke up on fire the day after with extreme poisening. I could feel the radiation coming out of my skin. If the woman who was so seemingly in a rush to get me into the machine reads this, understand this.. i will forgive you but I would also appreciate it if you quit your job tomorrow and found another line of work. You will remember me very easily I am the one you sent through twice and the first time the instructions where in spanish and when you did that you said Opps sorry ! Horrible what is happening to me. There is a very good chance that your negligence will cost me my life. The severe symptoms I have a month and a half latter are increasingly life threatening. I hope I live through this but something tells me this will kill me and i wont be the first. Look it up people. Cat scan radiation poisening... Yeah many can take it but what if you like me cannot. I would never take it. I would do an mri first or some other less invasive measure. This is a horrible experience but as they say things happen for a reason and if this is how I am meant to go well so be it but dam i wish I had a choice in this. i wish i could go back in time. i would leave that place in a minute and run for my life. PS I was an excellent athlete and in excellent health now i can barely walk. It doesnt look good and for that I am very sad. God be with anyone who ever suffers such a cruel fate. Amen Ps you will also remember me doc. Your the one who told me you never had anyone die from this well Im not to sure you where speaking the truth. God only knows how many suffered but didnt report it. i would advise you also to leave the business. if there is risk to one human soul you are in an evil practice and there is tremendous risk but hey who cares right, lets just get you in that machine. Steroids and bendrly would have protected me and also you list dying as a possible consequence but you do not say a word about the many other consequences like caner years down the road...Renal failure... Gastreoparalysas where you lose total function of your digestive system because the nerves have been eternally severed or how about neuropathy where you lose sensation in your extremities not to mention the internal damage to your autonomic system and one last thing people there is another thing that can happen. MCAS Mast Cell Activation Syndrome.. yeah look it up. here your DNA is severed and you develope and host of life threatening issues that end up also destroying you so with that before any of you jump into one of these machines remember what I am telling you.. God forbid this happens to you trust me you will never forget it.. Peace to you all and if i die trust me I had a great life and I have tremendous belief in an after life but nevertheless I would much rather have gone out on different terms I had a lot of living left to do and I was involved in helping people. May God be with you all and i pray for a miracle Also as one dude so aptly called this machine.. The Jaws of Death literally Do your research and look it up radiation poisening is real

    So they lost my husbands blood work. He got it done from and outside lab from the practice because…read morethey couldn't get his blood. When we called and asked about it, they couldn't find it and made US track it down. We did and eventually got the results. I thought maybe it was just a one time mistake, but did not like how my husband and I had to do the dirty work for them. Next time when I got blood work done, they lost it again. They couldn't get my blood (I don't know how, I literally get told by every person who has taken my blood how easy my veins are), so I had to go to the lab next door. The woman who took my blood at the lab (easily, even after the person at the office blew my veins) said that they have been sending people over a lot to the lab because they can't get blood draws on people. I was waiting and waiting for my results. I eventually called and they said they could not find the results, they were lost. They said we don't know how to help you because we don't know where they are. I suggested the simple solution of calling the lab to find out the results (why would I have to tell them to do that?) They said ok, and I never got a call back. I then finally decided to do the dirty work for them, again. I finally get the results and low and behold, my blood work shows that I am prediabetic! I should have been being treated! I had to have another Dr interperet the results for me and I got started on meds to help my condition. I have even had other problems believe it or not besides this that are pretty bad, like they wouldn't approve a brain MRI for me after I went temporarily blind in my one eye. I saw my neurologist for this who is not in my insurance plan because I have been going to him for years and I love him. Insurance wouldn't approve it through him because he is not in the plan, so after seeing him for the problem he called and spoke with this office and asked if they would approve a brain MRI for me, and they said they would not without seeing me, so I made an appointment and got an exam, and they STILL said no because I did not see them initially for the problem! What?!? My neurologist had to call them and threaten to report them, so THEN they gave me a script. I will NEVER go back to this place. Its a malpractice lawsuit waiting to happen. They don't have the patients well-being in mind, it's like a circus over there.

    Was in search of new doctor for my insurance had changed this is where I was directed. The building…read moreitself is horrendously kept then you go to the suite which is even worse. There are no restrooms in the back area so when you need to provide a specimen, you are sent back to the waiting room and then must march past all the patients holding your cup of urine. The lab for blood draws feels like your in a closet and once I was directed to the exam room I was appalled. Ceiling tiles removed, electrical wires hanging out, a tool box on the floor, ladder leaned up against the wall.... Awful for a medical exam room. Then the doctor came in.... Stout little Asian (http://www.healthgrades.com/physician/dr-alicia-camacho-3hk3c) woman who slammed (yes, slammed!) the door shut. I do believe I mentioned to her "Wow! That was abrupt." Then literally she barked at me "why are you here!?" I stated I received new insurance & was looking to establish myself with a practice". "WHAT?" She screams again, to which I repeat self. Exam complete, weeks later I had my blood worked faxed to my office- I work in radiology and feel our company sets the standard for quality patient care, and I sought out another doctor to treat me a little more humanely. Bedside manner - 0 office setting and aesthetics -00 awful in every way!

    In the twenty plus years that I have been treated by Dr Mike DiGiovanna and his staff, I can say…read morethat they have treated me with kindness and expertise that has prolonged my life. Having several serious medical problems over the years, Dr Mike and the gang are always there for me not just with the best medical treatment but always with respect and caring that I have never found in any other Medical facility. I have seen my share of Doctors who do not care and you know that you are just another number in the sea of Specialists who make you wait 2 hours then get two minutes of their time that helps very little. Dr Mike on the other hand always makes you feel better and his positive, caring attitude is wonderful. He listens to ANY of your concerns, does not rush you and gives you ways to make your medical problems better. Even though I no longer live near Dr Mike, the 30 mile trip is well worth the effort and he will remain my Primary care doctor for as long as he or myself live. As I have said to him, please NEVER retire. I would be lost without him.

    If you want a caring and concerned doctor with great bedside manner then go to Dr. Mike DiGiovanna…read more I have been his patient since the last 12 years. I have also visited other doctor's offices since I moved away from South shore of Long Island but I soon realized there is no one better than him! My house is about 40 mins from his office now but I will not go to anyone besides him. His patient care and the concern he shows is excellent. I really trust him. He has a big and clean office. I know the front desk there about 7-8 years ago gave patient's a hard time but things have changed sine then. I'm glad my husband's uncle told us about him 12 years ago and I would refer anyone I know to him! 5 stars!
