We've been with this practice for a couple of years and the last time we were due to run out of serum, we were given a form to sign and authorize insurance to renew. Despite this, they still didn't create new serum setting us back on our schedule- less than ideal when one of your kids is on a biological med to manage his asthma. Today we went to go get our shots and were advised that our serum had expired since our last injection several weeks ago but no one had advised us or had us sign the required authorization form. Even more disappointing is that we've had several conversations within the last month with Dr. Carr as well as office staff regarding our pending relocation and the process for transferring our existing serum to the new practice. Unless you want to add managing your allergy serum expirations to your already busy schedule, I suggest finding another provider until this office management improves

However, you still have to answer the same Q&A upon your arrival once again on their tablet. We showed up 10mins early and checked in on time and got in our room by 9:40am. And we ended up just staying in the room until 10:30am (nobody came in) and he decided to leave without seeing the dr. What a wasting time! They texted and emailed us a multiple times that we can't be late or should give them 24 hours notice to avoid $75 cancellation fee. What's the point of having an appointment? They could have just booked less people than they are supposed to. Because they seem like they don't care about other people valuable time.

Two weeks passed and I hadn't heard from the office or pharmacy so I called the office and Mario replied that there was a delay in getting the prescription. I called again and again and emailed the office. Mario said my insurance didn't approve the prescription and they need to appeal it. I asked him to call me to update me when the appeal is sent in. I never received a call. I called to follow up and emailed several times then asked Mario to leave a message for the doctor to call me and the office manager to call me. His response was I will have the prescription sent to your pharmacy. I asked him to still ask the doctor and manager to call me. Nothing. I emailed to follow up with him and he said the doctor said she doesn't get involved with insurance only medical issues. I then asked if the manager was going to call me and never received a reply. There seemed to be zero concern over my care even after I expressed that this time of year is very difficult for my breathing. It may sound like I could be a difficult person and that's why I'm writing this review but I literally have never had this happen at a doctor's office and my doctors have even said I'm such a nice person. So do with this what you will but it's very disappointing because I thought I had finally found a new allergist. NOTE: I just read another bad review in which the office responded to call and talk to the manager. I tried a few times before even seeing this other review so I'm guessing that will not help anything but it looks good on Yelp to say that.

I do not recommend Dr Zimmerman at all. She is VERY money driven. I stopped seeing her after she…read morediagnosed me with a mold problem where I was living (at the time I was living and caring for my 91 year old mother and my developmentally disabled sister). She told me I needed to leave my home because of the mold. Money was an issue with me at the time, obviously, and I was in absolute tears. Her only response was to quickly try to schedule AND CHARGE $$$$$ me for another appointment to discuss how we would deal the mold issue. No compassion at all for the situation I was in. About a month later, she sent out a letter to her patients saying she was "retiring". An ethical doctor would probably stop taking new patients if they were getting ready to retire. Why would you take on new patients if you knew you would not see them through the process of getting better? Then a couple months later she sent another email to her patients saying she wasn't going to retire, but was joining another practice. Something is just not right here. I am now seeing a functional medicine doctor in Montana that is wonderful and not money driven. A PIECE OF ADVICE FOR EVERYONE, YOU DON'T NEED TO SEE A FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE DOCTOR BASED IN OC. YOU CAN SEE MOST FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE DOCTORS VIRTUALLY AND I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND FINDING A DOCTOR OUTSIDE OF OC. The worst part is I just received a lab bill for $2500 that I never authorized almost one year after I stopped seeing her. I called her to try and help me rectify the bill and her new receptionist told me it was my problem. JUST TO CLARIFY READING HER RESPONSE. THESE ARE THE TESTS SHE RECOMMENDED AND ORDERED. NO TEST SHOULD HAVE BEEN OVER $500. SHE SENT ME TO THESE LABS. BE VERY CAREFUL OF HER "3RD PARTY CHARGES". I can understand how frustrating it is when labs send surprise charges, which is why I always recommend that patients try to find out from Quest and all other labs up front what all their charges will be. I never want anyone to experience the stress of unexpected charges. The $2500 bill was not from our office; it was from a lab where this patient chose to get testing done. The payments are handled by the lab and not by my office, so I'm sorry that I'm not able to help with 3rd party charges.

She put me on a binder to detox which was way too intense for me during that time. I could not handle the binder and had to stop taking it. I had to stop the treatment and she was not able to offer anything else. This was a waste of my time and money and was pointless. I know a lot about holistic health and natural medicine and looking back at that time in my life and healing process, that was WAY too soon to be put on a binder especially without even seeing me in person as we did a phone visit. She was happy to take my money for the appointment but it was a waste. Do not recommend. In fact, I recommend a much more gentle approach.
