Very kind and helpful. Was always available for me and my wife during a dark time. Allowed me to ask as many questions as i wanted and provided me with clear answers

My father unfortunately was referred to this stupid and cheater doctor from his insurance. In spite of the bad reviews we went to him thinking there would just be a minor stomach issue. This doctor told my father to have colonoscopy at Coast Plaza Hospital (Trust me this hospital is also the worst hospital i ever went in my life!!) and his office staff told us insurance wouldnt cover it as he is now a physician provider. We paid out of the pocket a huge amount just for this colonoscopy and when we got the results i asked the office staff for the colonoscopy pictures for my record and the office assitant kept yelling at the phone that we dont keep pictures ask the hospital i insisted them to get from the hospital them self and hand it over to me she literally kept banging the phone without listening and did this same thing 4 times! I went to hospital and shockingly came to know that this doctor didnt took any pictures!!! Now i dont even trust the diagnosis he made niether i trust the… hospital! And everyone including hospital, the doctor, his office staff is involved in this bluffing game! Which doctor on earth who do a colonoscopy dosent take pics of a diagnosed polyp and without mentioning the landmark of the lesion he made the medical report!!!! He deserve a lawsuit!!

he will take care of you

run as fast as you can away from this doctor. Poor service, they lie about coverage, they will repeat tests on purpose.
