Update: Another reviewer stated rates from 2010. The following are the current rates for 2024…read more Dr Ann Shippy's rate for new patient appointments is $4,200.00, and yes you read that right. FOUR THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED DOLLAR$ for one two-hour appointment. Her follow up appointments are $780.00 per hour and 3-6 weeks apart. Plus thousands of dollar$ more for her 'lab tests' and 'supplements'. In a just one year, the math is the 'tell'... $15,000.00 to $20,000.00 Dollars.... And no insurance. I cannot comprehend what appears to be an shocking disregard for decency. Even in a free market, what type of person would make their fortune on the backs of the sick and suffering, the desperate and frightened.... never mind a 'doctor'?

I've been seeing Dr. Babcock for years and he is really an excellent doctor and I hate having to switch from him. However, SAMC recently switched to One Medical (Amazon), meaning you have to pay a $200 subscription to even be able to read messages from the doctor, book an appointment, view/ refill prescriptions, etc. You can get a 'free' version if you're ok with being on hold for half a day but all that gets you is the ability to login and view messages when you owe them money... not doctors messages. They no longer have a direct number to call even though there's usually 2/3 people working at the desk every time I've been in there. This is truly saddening as again, Dr. Babcock has been a great doctor for me but this model is truly terrible. As bad as health care is in the US I can't believe we're straying even further in the wrong direction with subscription based health care! When I told a rep I did not want to pay for the app she tried to sell me an Amazon Prime account because there's a discount...

Well-run office with diligent attention to detail--COVID-19 care has been well-run, with due concern for everyone's safety. Never had a problem with parking; office is well set up. Exam rooms are clean and well-equipped. Blood can be drawn on-site. I rarely, if ever, have had to wait long before my appointment time; I'm surprised, as medical problems don't necessarily fit into nice reliable blocks of time. Getting through to talk to reception can be a challenge at peak times--but I suppose that is true with any office.

He knows his stuff better than any other endo I have since worked with. He's very direct and I guess some people are too sensitive to deal with hearing the truth. But that's just one of the many things I have always respected about Dr. Fehrenkamp. His wife, Lisa, worked the front desk and I also think the world of her. They made a great team, had a wonderful caring staff, and, on the rare occasion I had an emergency and needed to see him quickly, they would go out of their way to find a way to make that happen. I miss having Dr. Fehrenkamp as my endo and will be forever grateful to him for his decades as a truly dedicated and outstanding physician!

"Er, that could take at least an hour. Assuming I don't forget anything." "That's fine, this is your appointment as a new patient." As Kendra mentioned, and I think another Yelper I conferred with off the record, Amy was amazing. She actually understood every damn last thing! I was talking about (which you'd think a doctor would understand, but not only is she not the doctor, plenty of MD's I've spoken to before about treatments I've had have responded with. "I see." or "Really." or "Huh. That's funny, I never heard of that.") Like Kendra Z, I did not have a lot of chat time with Dr. F, but he did agree with most of what Amy had to say. What n.p. actually confers with, and gets the doc in there with you during the same appointment? NOBODY. THAT'S WHO. Well except Amy and Dr. F. Now I dunno if they're going to be able to fix me or not, but at least it's nice to know there's somebody that actually knows wtf I am talking about (and cares!) - and - can haz genuine medical training and degrees. In this country! Holy motherfreakin cow. Believe, people. Sometimes, pigs do fly.

Although not a fan of many of my life choices the didn't "tsk" or such. She worked with who I am and made me better. In more ways than the lab work can show. Truly a healer.

I was incredibly lucky to have Dr. Broberg randomly assigned to my daughter the day after her birth. He just happened to be on rounds, which was really a great sign, when you think about it. I had been previously stressing out about interviewing pediatric doctors to find that right one we could trust. After the first visit, I knew I would happily join his practice. Lo and behold, Dr. Broberg's calming bedside manner totally won me over. He talks to us in such a manner we feel comfortable and educated. None of this talking down to us for asking the most ridiculous questions. Plus our daughter doesn't freak out on him when he is prodding her. She senses his calmness too I'd like to think. His bedside manner is perfect and I couldn't imagine finding another doctor that is quite as soothing. He is located at the ARC South 1st office, which is slightly sketchy at times. Just suck it up and deal with it, he is totally worth it.
