1 /5 Larissa Muehleder: Where should I start? This facility consistently failed to follow up on medical x-rays or urology tests. When you call for information about the next steps, they often mix up your file with someone elses. The only person who provided clear guidance was a woman I spoke to in Brooklyn, and unfortunately, she seems to be an exception.
Whenever I reached out, the receptionist lacked the knowledge to guide me or offer advice on my care. Despite my back pain, the diagnosis of kidney stones, and the recommendation for an x-ray, I ended up receiving a chest x-ray instead. The lack of clarity on this decision was frustrating, with no one able to provide a satisfactory explanation.
After paying a fee and attending another appointment, the urologist informed me that I was supposed to go to another office for necessary tests before seeing her. This raised the question of why a second appointment was scheduled without ensuring they had the required tests.
Following up for a month to understand the next steps, I made an appointment for a phone call to discuss the results. However, just 2 minutes before the scheduled call, they called me to charge the consultation fee again, even though I had already paid for a prior appointment where no service was rendered due to their negligence.
Upon explaining this to the representative, he looked up my records, put me on hold, and then returned to inform me that they couldnt locate my results. This lack of preparation for the consultation, coupled with insistence on fee payment, was frustrating.
Despite their earlier call to collect fees, when the scheduled consultation time arrived, they were unable to find my results, and the subsequent promise to call me back was not fulfilled.
In a later call, the receptionist offered a credit for two office visits, and I was told the doctor would call me when available. However, as of 7:46 pm, I still have not received the promised call. The level of care provided in this situation is truly astonishing and concerning.
In the care of Dr. Bachilava.
