This used to be a wonderful office. It was diverse and the Doctors cared for the patients. I went back after about 10 years and My same Dr. was still there one of only 2 men left in the practice, Dr. Chris Lynch. My primary care doc sent the findings and diagnosis for Chris to evaluate before we even got there. Chris decided that he needed to do pap and told us that he was aware of the problems that I had and had defined it just by the description of complaints. Everything was great, until my insurance co called me and said he had put a statement in the notes that made them unable to pay. I began calling to speak with Chris as this was surely a mistake. I called for 3 weeks straight and he never returned a call. After 6 weeks and no call, no test results, nothing except a call from his billing dept who told me that indeed the note was in the file and the insurance would not pay based on this VERY WRONG statement. His nurse who called me "hun," sweetie and sweet heart....absolutely condescending and a bit...well, I was waiting for her to call me girl. No really...it was just that bad. It caused me to consider where I was. I then took notice that the walls were actually a display of the babies born there...every single one of them was white as was all of the visible staff. That in and of itself is not offensive, the babies were absolutely beautiful. But when you put it all together... with the fact that Chris then after me calling for 7 weeks trying to speak with my Dr. having rec'd no test results, NO NOTHING except a call from billing saying that my insurance won't pay because of something that the doctor said...HE, then sends me a letter stating that I was trying to make his staff say something??? the fact is...what I asked his staff to do was to ask him to call me. THAT IS ALL. I simply needed a phone call. What were the results of the pap? and why was the first conversation that with your office after the test, with the billing department and why is it taking 3 weeks to get a return call? What on earth would cause you to presume such a thing of me, why would I ask your staff to do something illegal and WHY would you attempt to disparage MY CHARACTER? For 3 weeks, I asked for nothing other than a return call from my doctor. Your accusation is shocking, since I knew you when you were about 16 years LESS ...of whatever it is that you are full of now. That guy was talented, fabulous and honest. I trusted him with my life.
I too have a reputation to uphold as I am active in my community and cannot allow such an accusation of coercion and attempt to manipulate to go without being challenged. It is actually, agains the law a felony to be precise. You and your people are LIARS. I did not ask for ANY special language. I was diagnosed when I came there. I came there because your office was where I had previous history.
You do not need to worry about treating me at ANY facility. I call a RACE FOUL and throw a yellow flag on the play. If I were to discover ANY correlation to you or your very white biased office. I would immediately demand another doctor since your office is VERY clear, that Blacks are not welcome there or maybe its just me, but guess what? I happen to be Black, lol. From Carols gone with the wind vernacular, down to the pictures on the walls, there is no behavior that leads to anything except limited acceptance of diversity. I generally do not delve into the limits of racial bias, my husband happens to be white. However, this is so obviously the only thing left on the table. I in no way asked for ANYthing other than to speak with my doctor. I guess you think that you put this black girl in her place. Please keep in mind, that had it NOT been for the sufferings of Black women tortured at the very hands of folks just like you, who felt the need to put us in our place ...your modern gynecology would not exist. Maybe you should learn to show a little respect and never forget the cost for your comfort. But I am sure you do not care, your comfort is secure on the backs of women. Thanks for the phone call Dr. Christopher Lynch, the one that never came. I appreciate your previous care and pray that God continues to bless you. With great ferocity, I pray blessings on you and yours. JW read more
