I told them that I would put in a claim with Medicare and asked for a hard copy of the bill along with the codes they'd used for the care provided. I also paid the disputed amount because I didn't want them to destroy my good credit rating. It is now 10 September and I've heard nothing back from the billing department, nor have I ever received the information that I needed to dispute my claim with Medicare. How do I know that they received my letter? They cashed the check. My beef isn't with the medical providers but with their billing department so unless you have unlimited funds and masochistic proclivities, I'd recommend that you avoid West Front Primary Care.

I was in and out within 45 minutes and felt fully taken care of. Sure, it felt like a walk-in but it wasn't ghetto or anything. The waiting room is fairly big so you're not all crammed together and the nurses are very nice and patient. Plus, they took my insurance. Save yourself the trouble of the Munson Walk-in (I don't mind any of their other facilities, but their urgent care just plain sucks) and go to The Walk In instead.

They show up to Pride events as if they are allies, but I found they are transphobic. I told them I…read moredidn't want what was "assigned at birth" on my record and they should leave what I entered on intake forms. They said ok but then changed it without telling me. I had to find out when I saw it on the end of visit sheet. They never discussed it with me, just went ahead and did what they wanted to MY record. They refused to change it back stating that doing so "wouldn't reflect reality" and "would be false." That was right after telling me how proud she is to work for a clinic that supports the trans community. That isn't support, it's the same bigoted rhetoric used on trans people re birth certificates, state IDs, passports etc. It's the same hate being thrown at us from all directions now days. They claim it'd somehow be illegal to have a correctly matched gender on the record, which is ridiculous since it's just a demographic box. Being trans is documented in the medical part of the record. They claimed it's for preventive care and that the EHR would recommend the wrong care, as if providers can't think through that with their individual patients. She used an example for something which wouldn't apply since I no longer have those parts and, by her logic, trans women on hrt would never be recommended mammograms. She made a lot of other nonsense claims but the reality here is that trans people have different medical needs than their cisgender counterparts and adding a wrong gender to the medical record does nothing to address that reality. My record at Munson was my correct gender for many years and there was never a problem so these arguments are nothing but gaslighting. Trans people deserve to have correct records same as birth certificates and other documents. I thought the call was in good faith but it became clear that she had only called me (my complaint was sent in writing) in order to be condescending and rude. She kept saying I understand your perspective then immediately told me it's wrong while repeating the same illogical, made up, bigoted reasons and claiming she's not medically trained when asked for specifics on things she was stating. She wasn't trying to understand anything, rather she was gaslighting me. It was all yet another horrible experience with transphobic medical providers. The worst part about this one, tho, is they're constantly pretending to be allies. They also demanded urine drug screens and controlled substance contracts for prescribing a hormone I've been on for nearly 20 years. Never had any issues and never had anyone ask me to do that in all that time. They were unable to provide any medical or legal basis for this but continued to demand it anyway. She said they can still provide me other healthcare and seemed shocked when I said no. I'm supposed to be ok with getting care from a clinic where they not only disrespect me on my record but also refuse me medically necessary care that I've been on for decades, with plenty medical documentation behind it, solely because I won't sign some b.s. contract or submit to urine screes neither of which have any medical or legal basis. Any provider who would ignore my extensive medical documentation and repeatedly dismiss how I feel about their bigotry and medical coercion, and who would gaslight me when I complain about it, obviously does not have my best interest in mind so why would I want any care from them?? I thought it was interesting that shortly after receiving my complaint the medical director gave notice. He didn't state his reasons. Maybe it's because they are hateful hypocrites or maybe it's because they aren't actually following the law wrt nurse practitioners who are not independent practitioners in Michigan. At this clinic they do not have a real physician overseeing their nurse practitioners in the way the law states they're supposed to. I don't know. All I know is they are NOT allies to transgender people and I'd recommend going elsewhere if you're trans.

I was at my wit's end trying to get a breast reduction surgery while at a BMI of 39. I had been trying to lose that last stubborn 20 pounds for years but just couldn't get the weight off. I was rejected for Semaglutide by my insurance company because I am not diabetic, so I decided to buy it out of pocket. Kimberly has been with me every step of the way, checking in with me as I titrated on the medication and making sure I came in for the B-vitamin infusions that came with my Semaglutide package. I am now 30 pounds down with a BMI of 31.5 and eagerly awaiting my breast reduction consultation! At one of my appointments, I mentioned that I had been thinking about getting a Botox lip flip and that I suffer from tension headaches. Ali mentioned that Botox can help with tension headaches, which was all I needed to hear - I was back in a week later to plump my pout and immobilize my 11's. I have had wonderful results, both aesthetically and tension headache-wise, and I have zero regrets. During the Botox conversation, I also mentioned that I really disliked the dark wells under my eyes and the asymmetry of my facial features. These can't really be addressed with Botox, but could be with filler. I decided to go ahead with the filler, and I am thrilled that I did. I look natural - no filler mustache or overblown Kardashian cheekbones - just younger, brighter and less tired. Kimberly did my injections with a patient, gentle hand and incredible attention to detail - I couldn't ask for more. Check out my before and after pics - I can't believe the difference! I can't speak highly enough about the care, service and results I have gotten from Kimberly and the rest of the staff at RENUE Wellness.

So I was looking for a new doctor since I hadn't seen one since I moved from SoCal. Dr. Bowerman…read morehad good reviews, so I decided to give her a try. It took about a month to get in to see her, but the wait in the lobby wasn't too long. The office is generally not the best ( a teeny bit grungy). She came into the exam room, I didn't haveto wait too long for her. She's young and very nice, I told her she had great reviews on Yelp. She sat with me and spoke to me about everything, taking her time, not making me feel rushed. She mentioned she would be out on maternity leave in July, I figured that's okay because I won't be needing her too much then, just getting my routine check up now. I was glad to see her good follow up reviews on Yelp. My insurance rejected some of the doctors she referred me to, so when i called the office to get tht cleared up, it turned out she was out of the office for 6 weeks due to bedrest. Her staff is busy and really couldnt help me too quickly, and since she was out of the office, she couldnt call me back about my lab results. I requested an on-call doc call me, who eventually did (after ignoring another request for a call which was more urgent then my results) and was so cold on the phone. I have no doubt she's a great doctor, and I'm not going to blame her for bein preggo, but since I've become a patient around her maternity leave, I feel a bit neglected. Definitely see her because shes a warm doctor who doesnt make your issues feel petty, but maybe wait until shes back from maternity leave and settled in...I've kind of gotten stuck in between, and still trying to work out my referrals.
