    I was referred to Dr. Choksy for a routine surgical clearance. I went to him with no prior cardiac…read moreissues, no symptoms of any cardiac problems. On my first visit (and $50 copay later), I had an EKG which I had been told was what was required for the surgical clearance. I met with Dr. Choksy for only a couple of minutes as he looked at the EKG. Everything showed normal, yet he insisted we perform an Echocardiogram before he would sign off on the surgical clearance. I want to restate here once more, all showed normal. I just wanted my surgery so I agreed. Almost a month later I come in for my echo. I was in and out in about half an hour. It took another week and half before the office contacted me. I was told that while yes, everything seemed fine, he wasn't able to get enough clear images to determine my ejection fraction and that he would not sign off on the surgical clearance without that. Mind you, all that is really needed is an EKG, which I had in the initial visit. The Echocardiogram cost me another $400 and was apparently a waste of time according to them. Now they want to perform a MUGA Scan, ofc at an additional cost to me. I have researched this surgery, I am going in for weight loss surgery. It has been proven time and time again that even in patients with a bad ejection fraction, weight loss surgery is known to improve function. So, to me this seems like a waste of time and money to get it when this surgery is known to improve it even IF it is bad. However, none of the tests I have had so far have given any clue to any sort of problem. I have good insurance, so I think this office is bleeding patients and insurances for all they can, dragging their feet before giving any authorization so that they can get every penny they can out of their patients.
