Unfortunately, when my appendix ruptured in 2018- and I had heart palpitations -.. it's good to have routine check ups. Luckily I found a really good and sensible cardiologist.. Easy to speak with and very knowledgeable. At first- my next appointment was going to be in six months- (said he'd want more banana bread- hehehe).. but he cleared me for another year check up.. Walking and eating healthier has been the biggest motivation.. Glad to have found a really rare and caring cardiologist..

Having relocation from New York City and having had Lung Cancer because of 9/11 but I did not count…read morefor funding as my office was above Canal street. Anyway had a lobectomy at MSK in Nyc. I have to have CT scans, yearly for the rest of my life. I have been passed around Renown Pulmonary like a ping pong ball. Whenever I have a CT scan I always ask for a copy of the scan and also the written report. I had a CT scan in Oct, received my copy of the report which was some 2 lines that said I had cancer of the right lung. I called left a message with Jessica the Doctors assistant, I was leaving messages every week for over 5 weeks. I finally left a burning ass message asking if I had cancer or not.. would be nice to know before Christmas holiday so I don't have to wonder? She finally did call me back after that message and told me no. The Doctor did finally send me a message in my chart on the 29 of December that everything was good. Well, I took a bad fall off a ladder, 2 days later I took myself to the emergency room at Northern Nevada. They took a ct scan told me I had two spots, now on my left lung. They gave me some documents to give to my Pulmonary doctor, it has a bar code on it so she could access my new CT scan that showed 2 new spots on my left lung. Again kept calling and calling finally received a my chart request from the doctor telling me that I have a new appointment for a new CT scan which I did BUT DID NOT NEED TO. I Went to the main Renow hospital and picked up copies of every single test result, written report and cd of my CT scans. She also had be do a test to see how my blood flows through my heart that too was back in October. Well come to find out. I now have blockage in my carotid artery. My Pulmonary doctor never told me this back in Oct... nothing nor any mention of it in her email to me on the 29th of December... NOTHING. I found this out from my General doctor. I have had 5 different doctors at Renown pulmonary in 6 years... I left this medical facility! Now have a Great young New Pulmonary doctor off Mae Ann. Even my allergy doctor told me that Renown pulmonary doesn't have the best reputation. RUN. Here is another interesting fact... if you request a copy of the written test results of a CT scan. You might not get the one they send the doctor. The one I received in October was nothing like the one they sent to the doctors office and when I had the new CT scan in March as she did not want to see the one I had done by Northern Nevada in February...well again I asked for copies off all report... the one I received this time was the exact same report they sent the doctor last October 2025... word for word. I did not need to have the additional expose to another CT scan when all they had to do was let me know what they wanted me to do with the paper work from Northern Nevada that would allow them access to that CT scan. RUN... THIS FACILITY IS LAZY AND NOW PART OF KAISER!

More general Info. off the internet. Let the buyer beware!! More states are passing laws to…read moreregulate this. States are taking steps to regulate or prohibit unfair facility fees in healthcare, particularly concerning outpatient services. What are facility fees? Facility fees are extra charges added to medical bills by hospitals or health systems for services delivered at hospital-owned clinics or practices, even if those services are not provided within the main hospital building itself. Why are facility fees being addressed? Facility fees have become a point of concern because they can result in unexpected, higher medical bills for patients who may not realize the physician's office is considered a hospital outpatient department. State Legislation and Initiatives: Growing momentum: As of September 2024, 18 states have passed legislation addressing facility fees, demonstrating increasing state-level focus on protecting consumers from these unexpected costs. Specific Prohibitions: Outpatient services: States like Connecticut, Indiana, and Maine have gone furthest in prohibiting facility fees for selected outpatient services typically provided in an office setting. Telehealth: Some states, including Connecticut, Maryland, Ohio, and Washington, have specifically targeted facility fees for telehealth services. Preventive services: New York has prohibited facility fees for preventive care. Transparency and Disclosure: Some states, including Florida, Louisiana, Minnesota, and Texas, now require hospitals to notify patients about facility fees beforehand. Model Legislation: Organizations like the National Academy for State Health Policy (NASHP) have developed model legislation to guide states in addressing these issues, including prohibiting facility fees for services outside of a hospital's campus and requiring annual reporting of facility fees. Bipartisan Support: Efforts to lower healthcare costs and address unfair billing practices, including facility fees, are seeing bipartisan support in state legislatures and in the U.S. House of Representatives. Federal Efforts: The No Surprises Act, effective January 1, 2022, protects patients from surprise bills for emergency services at out-of-network facilities or for out-of-network providers at in-network facilities. It also includes provisions for transparency regarding hospital price transparency. In summary, states are increasingly enacting laws to address unfair facility fees by: Prohibiting facility fees for certain outpatient services. Requiring hospitals to disclose facility fees to patients in advance. Implementing reporting requirements for facility fees. Working to establish site-neutral payments for certain services. These state-level efforts, alongside federal initiatives, aim to protect consumers from unexpected and potentially costly medical bills associated with facility fees.

They told me I was a mouth breather, but during my test I was drug and had a nasal mask on. Be careful of this place, when you can not sleep anymore, they tell you they have enough information. Then on the follow up they tell you that they did not get enough information and you will have to do another sleep study and you will charge full price again. Then they told me part of my breathing problem was my gut was to big, and pressing on my diaphragm. So I have lost some weight and seem to be breathing fine now. Maybe someone should report these people to the American Medical Association, are they helping or ripping people off with there lies. These people are a JOKE and RIP YOU OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
