I paid around $300 for a consultation with Dr. Claire, and it took me nearly two days to meticulously fill out all the required health paperwork for her review prior to my visit. When I finally arrived over a week later, I was greeted by Dr. Claire, who seemed like a lovely person. However, after taking my payment in full, she spent my paid time combing through my paperwork, which she hadn't bothered to review beforehand.
I left feeling completely taken advantage of. She wanted an additional $180 for allergy skin tests, plus another $180 for the actual testing. If her rate is $180 an hour, then my initial payment of $300 essentially resulted in nothing more than a discussion of my paperwork! This experience feels unforgivable, and I believe that karma will catch up with her.
Had she reviewed the paperwork properly, she could have provided valuable insights or recommendations that might have improved my situation. Instead, I feel cheated. This review serves as a reminder to future patients that they should clarify what is covered during the first consultation. Will it merely be a review of your paperwork, or can you expect actual medical advice? Also, I found the pricing of the chiropractor in her office to be excessively high as well! read more
