My situation is too lengthy and detailed to report.
I would not recommend him, his office management, and with the exception of a few, his staff to anyone.
All I can say is that his opinions definitely go beyond his scope of expertise.
PP is correct, they do expect the balance of your insurance premium paid up front. However this is explained in the new patient set up forms/eh hem, book, they send you to fill out for the first appointment.

This Dr. definately lives up to his name Sham and Pain. So, we had an appointment with a specialist today for my son's allergies. Not only did he want our $25 co-pay, he also wanted the remainder of our $500 deductible which was over $250. Never heard of that before, needless to say my wife canceled the appointment. We get a phone call shortly thereafter from his office. We ...are still getting billed $100 for cancel ling the appointment and not giving a 24 hr. notice. This is the same Dr. who canceled on us last month the morning of the appointment because he was sick......I wanna know why we can't just call it even. I will NEVER recommend any of my friends/family/or even Worst enemy to have to go through his office staff who obviously lie as well. Apparently, the receptionist tried my home phone and my wife's cell phone the night before to notify us of their policies. Amazingly BOTH of my phones did not work at the time she called, because our caller ID must be broke as well as our voice mail and answering machine.
Zero STARS IS MORE LIKE IT!!!!! well........that didn't take long. The bill just arrived today for $100.00 for the canceled appointment from yesterday. Obviously this Dr. is not about the Patients as he so claims to be, rather he is after his own personal gains, i.e.-money. Once again, DON'T EVER GO HERE!!!! Their policies are not explained to new patients, and they expect money from the deductible to be paid up front prior to being seen. If I can deter just one patient from wasting their time and money, then I have succeeded. BTW......I would like to know when this Dr. is going to reimburse my family for OUR TIME lost when my wife had to take off of work for the first appointment HE canceled
