Dr. Burt Bote Katubig, MD

Beware -- if you end up in Swedish Hospital under emergency conditions, this doctor will provide a five minute "service" during rounds (stood there and held a clipboard), then bill you for several hundred dollars. Once the payment from Regence is received and deposited, he will continue to pursue you for the remaining balance. This is strictly forbidden by Colorado law, but because I was a visitor to Colorado my insurance plan was purchased in Idaho and Dr. Katubig saw me as a "cash cow" -- he knew full well that he could take advantage of a loophole in the law that allows them to balance bill patients who do not carry Colorado insurance. Disgusting, predatory, and abusive practice!!!!!

Great surgeon with great bedside manners. Felt at ease, made sure I was comfortable from first meeting to discharge
