Dr. John Henry Plescia, MD

Went in for a wellness check and he wouldn’t shut up about trying to sell me his house. I said multiple times that I wasn’t even looking for a house and that I was just there for a check-up. He then started asking my partner all kinds of personal questions and when she got annoyed he just ended the check-up. They billed it wrong so my insurance didn’t cover the visit. Calling the office just got me ignored and I had to pay for what should have been covered. He has no business practicing medicine, he has no manners or self-awareness. I asked about a mole he glanced at it and said it’s fine. Turned out I needed it removed because it had cancer cells in it. What a joke, I’d lose my job if I was this inept.

He likes to chat. He failed to diagnose, or ignored my following conditions: - shingles - broken rib - hiatial hernia - colitis - iguinal hernia On other hand, he did well enough removing a sliver from a finger of mine. In retrospect, why I continued with him as long as I did, I can not know. His chosen phrase: "you will get better by yourself".

Horrible Doctor. Don't recommend him at all. Glad the person before me spoke up. I've been afraid to speak up till now. He tried to say my symptoms were all in my head also. Luckily I moved on to a different physician. No point in complaining to KSB they don't handle poor Doctors with bad manners and the way they practice at all. Word of advice find a real Doctor not one trying to push psych meds!

Feel he isn't good with complex medical conditions. Tried to say despite diagnostic proof and tests along with specialists decisions that he is above them. Feel he is more of a proper fit for psychiatric conditions than to practice as a family medicine Doc. However makes me very worried in his presumption of medical issues and how he views them is he accurately diagnosing his patients and preventing them from getting the actual medical help they need. When a Doctor questions tests and diagnostic testing along with genetic testing and tries to diagnose a patent with a psychiatric illness this should raise a red flag altogether. Diagnostic tests you can't make up! Bone tumors you can't make up! Having bone removed from your him pathology reports on a home tumr and plates in a hand you can't make up! Tests prove things! If you don't believe in diagnostic testing, MRI's lab work tilt table tests, HIDA scans specialists etc. Than you shouldn't be practicing family medicine. Complex medical… issues are just that. A specialist wouldn't remove a gallbladder and see how sick and inflamed it was just to remove it. A geneticist wouldn't diagnose you with a gene or genetic issue if it truly wasn't going on. A Doc wouldn't diagnose you with endometriosis if there were no true findings which would result in a hysterectomy and a pulmonologist wouldn't diagnose you with asthma if you didn't have asthma. If a Doc is good at diagnosing psych issues than that Doc should stick with treating psych issues. Plain and simple. Don't say things are in a patients head and try and make a patient question every diagnose a patient has ever received true diagnoses and findings based on pathology, blood work etc. Just wrong! I hope the best for this Doc. Just wasn't a good fit for me. I shouldn't feel like I should question every procedure I've had and every diagnose made. Every Doc has there right to there opinion. But don't automatically assume everything is psychiatric because it doesn't make sense to the Doc due to their own in expertise and knowledge. Get educated further and research! Don't just assume.
