Dr. Josephine E Samson, MD

Perhaps one of the most unorganized and unprofessional ‘doctors’ I’ve ever been to She refuses to return calls, shows up hours late to appointments, rushes you through and leaves you feeling like you were in the twilight zone I was sent for tests I was told that there were things of concern by the testing doctors and that I would need to follow up with Dr Samson It’s been months of run around, leaving messages and awaiting the results to be mailed by her mismanaged staff I am filing a formal complaint against Dr Samson She and her 1956 era office - with tape and glue holding up her examination rooms - can answer to the medical boards

I went to Dr. Samson after having Bronchitis as I still had difficulty breathing and chest pains. She barely listened to me breath, had a random girl (not a nurse) do a breathing test and EKG (why exactly?) and then told me she couldn't treat me until I went for a chest X-Ray and $700 Asthma test at the hospital. I did the chest X-Ray and explained I couldn't affor the $700 Asthma test but was in real pain and asked for a temporary prescription to help. She refused and would not treat me for anything until I did the Asthma test. I then went to a different doctor a few days later who immediately recognized I was having an Asthma attack, did a Nebulizer treatment and prescribed an inhaler. Dr. Samson should be ashamed for not providing any help to a patient in need. I wasn't asking for serious drugs just an inhaler or something to help me be able to breathe easier. In the end I had to pay over $200 for a visit that provided no help to a doctor that barely did anything.… Ridiculous and avoid this doctor at all costs!

the wait is usually long but Dr. Samson really helped me a lot

She is always available, but rushes through appointments, sends you to specialists rather than doing assessments herself, and does not offer a particularly thorough exam. She asked me no questions at my last physical, then billed me incorrectly. I'm ready to change primary care doctors.
