Agreed I should stay overnight for endoscopy, he spoke with Dresnick - I saw him speak to him and even confirmed with a phone call at the end of his shift that Dresnick would do the scope. I was instructed to not eat or drink in the ER all night, all morning. Dresnik sent his PA, Michelle, the next morning who was cold and rude to tell me he was not doing the scope, it wasn't an emergency. His PA said he didn't even know who I was. Complete lie!!!! Then she stepped out to speak to with a nurse about Botox and a new boyfriend. I chose my health over my job when I decided to stay overnight in the ER (cancel important meetings at work) just to have my time wasted by Dresnik and his schedule.

Dr. Preeti Mehta is the shit…read more Apparently nowadays, doctors don't like a challenge. My stomach was a mess for months -- I had my first doctor misdiagnose me (see Dr. Beckerman review) Then another doctor break up with me, basically told me my blood test results made no sense and told me there was nothing he can do. (He's lucky he doesn't have a page on yelp to review) Then Preeti Mehta to the rescue. Although my symptoms were bizarre, and nothing added up, she took initiative, put me on antibiotics immediately, and when that didn't go as planned, she gave me an endoscopy the SAME DAY as my appointment! She even gave me her cell phone number in case I had any emergencies. She is incredibly upbeat, super caring, and an all around genuine person.

When I went in for my scheduled colonoscopy, I was kept waiting several hours before I was taken into the procedure room. I made a follow up appointment and was called that afternoon that the doctor was unavailable but she can call me later that day they would call to check me in to obtain my co-pay who charges a co-pay for a follow up to a procedure. I've never had to do that before they called me to check in 30 minutes after they said they would and the doctor would be calling me in 10 minutes. It is now an hour later and I still haven't received a call. I'm going into the office to collect my records and will never use this facility again.

It's NOT a HIPAA violation, because these sites are encryption protected, and a lot of medical practices use them. The portals are specifically created for the medical field. Even hospitals have patient portals.

(suite D. You know who you are.) I was waiting in line behind others trying to check in to my procedure on my phone, when I heard "MAAM" loudly and aggressively, one of the ladies at the front desk shouted pretty angrily at me to get my attention, and then demanded equally as nastily that I sign in. I don't know what would possess a person to be so weirdly rude to a total stranger just waiting in line behind others while filling out check-in as instructed. I assume they're underpaid and overworked, but that's a huge no thank you for me.

She told the doctor I stopped taking it. That's NOT what I said. The same nurse didn't list all the allergies I told her in that visit. I asked the office to note the allergy because I had an upcoming procedure. The front desk asked me if I was telling them to notify my PCP and I said no I was telling them so they don't give me meds I'm allergic to under my procedure with THEM. I asked if what they were giving me before the procedure would be effective because I had issues with similar medications and they said it would be effective. Sure enough, it wasn't and I had to call the on call doctor at 2 am for advice due to a horrible reaction (which my other doctor said was an allergy in hindsight) The administrative staff was very snarky when I asked for an authorization for my procedure. They asked me to pay a hefty amount of money for the procedure. They said I would be refunded the remaining amount afterwards. Then sent me 3 different bills where my original payment was not applied like I discussed. I asked for clarification on this with an office manager who conveniently was in a meeting every time I called regardless of the time of day. When the finally called back she said she had no idea about the 3 bills but then told me what I owe. I asked how she came to that conclusion she said to add the 3 bills together and I that the total did not equal to what she said. She started talking over me and yelled. When I asked her to stop speaking over me she hung up on me. Terrible experience all around.
