Beware. Super rude office staff! I tried going into their office and was denied service because I did not have a physical Insurance card. I am not sure if they realize it but we are living in 2021 and everything is digital. I have been to numerous doctors offices and have never been denied service because I dont have my insurance card. I tried showing them my information on my laptop, writing it down, and verbally offered and was denied repeatedly. Not once did they tell me when I confirmed the appointment, that I would need to bring it.

DR. Koch has been my mothers doctor I believe for about 2 to 3 years. She is now 83 years old and has been diagnosed with cancer once again. I tried to sked a phone consultation with Dr. Koch by going to his office on Wednesday, Apr 16th, Just to ask some questions about concerns we have due to other complications with additional illnesses my mother suffers from. I've called over and over again, at this point begging for a simple phone call. I guess this Jerk is too busy. A lousy phone call I guess dose not generate enough cash to be concerned about a little old lady that needs her doctors attention.

wonderful doctor. caring, kind, leaves nothing open to chance. Listens and knows his patients not some quack who you visit and then leaves you to wonder. He is my lifeline. I trust him with everything he has diagnosed and was always correct.
