From what I could gather, Clemen is one of the better surgeons in the area. And you could get lost in those dreamy blue eyes of his, according to at least one nurse at Harrison Hospital. However, I consider myself an expert now, on the health industry. I’m a 100% disabled veteran (Army), and have been dealing with doctors, nurses, insurance companies, and pharmacists, ad nauseum, for almost 17 years. And, while my recent surgery was humiliating and de-humanizing, it was par for the course. The health care industry is broken. And every time I air a gripe to a doctor or anyone in the industry, I get a ton of commiserating. Well, I’m sick of the commiseration. As I see it, the health care industry, collectively, is cowardly. They’ll offer you condolences and commiseration, as if, they, too, are victims of the insurance and pharmaceutical companies and governmental agencies. The truth is, as long as they continue to put up with upset patients who KNOW they’re being jerked around,… everything else is golden. Dr. Clemen probably made $50,000 in one shift, with the amount of surgeries he had lined up for the day. That’s how it works, see. People who are sick or injured lose their humanity once they step foot into a hospital or doctor’s office, because they immediately become a paycheck, and not a patient. And everyone knows this. Putting up with upset patients is the only negative in their backwards system, because they all win, and the patient loses. And then the patient gets upset. When the patient gets too upset for their taste, and starts to really nail the problem with being handled with kiddie gloves when a legitimate complaint is being fully ignored, at Dr. Clemen’s office, they’ll just hang up on you. Doesn’t matter if you don’t raise your voice or refrain from foul language. Apparently, if they don’t like what they are hearing, regardless of how real and/or true the problem is, they just hang up. Again, this is par for the course. It’s standard practice, for doctors to not have the guts to be upfront. I can’t tell you how many times, exactly, I’ve been sent by one doctor to another doctor, only to be told the first doctor was wrong or should have taken care of it at my original appointment, but it’s at least 20 times in 17 years. “I’m still going to have to charge you for this visit.” Right. Of course you are. This is an industry-wide practice, to look upon people as paychecks. Shame on all health care personnel, for selling their once respected profession to the almighty dollar! Shame on all health care personnel, for selling their profession’s soul to greed. The wellness industry is dead!!! The Hippocratic Oath? That’s a joke to the modern Western doctor. The one silver lining in this whole experience (apart from the mess of King Boletes I found outside Dr. Clemen’s office) is that it cemented my resolve to be as healthy as possible. I don’t ever want to step foot into a hospital or a doctor’s office ever again, they suck that much. A diseased industry, through and through. DOA

Kind, patient and easy to talk to. Surgery went beautifully and he did amazing work
