Please avoid Dr. Nathan Pekar if you have any interest in living a quality life. He has been among the worst doctor's that I have ever had the misfortune to have dealt with for the following reasons:
- Rushes the appointment
- General disinterest
- Does NOT fill your prescriptions
In my initial appointment with him, he attempt to make an effort at listening to me however the entire appointment felt extremely rushed and he made nearly every attempt to end it within 10-15 minutes.
Following this, it was nearly impossible to get a prescription filled by him to the point that in the last two months, my prescriptions were filled by other doctor's (despite significant efforts including calls, online messages in the portal, and online messages on the Victory Medical Klarna messenger ranging from 10 days up to day of).
The staff was also deeply unhelpful, letting me know that in order to get my prescription refilled, I should use the online portal, but if I sent in my prescription request earlier than 5 business days, then it would be ignored. If I sent in later than 5 business days, it was also likely to be ignored. And when I did send it in 5 business days, it was still ignored.
I have left several online messages, following up each day, in an attempt to just get a response, and in the past few months I have received none.
And god forbid you have multiple prescriptions, because Dr. Pekar will maybe fill one prescription and completely ignore the others.
They also look to charge your insurance as much as possible. By state law, practices can but are not required to drug test you for controlled prescriptions. Most doctors range somewhere between once to twice a year. Dr. Pekar will force you into doing a drug test EVERY month.
So, not only is he an uncaring and lazy doctor, he also wants to take as much money from you and your insurance by pushing needless tests on you as often as possible.
In sum, please do NOT see Dr. Pekar if you want quality care. read more
