Dr. is really good but to hard answer the phone calls even if you leave message by email because the voice mail is full all the time.

I don’t appreciate the a fact that after one video conference with this Dr. I started receiving spam texts and phone calls from Lennox hill radiology stating that he ordered multiple imaging exams for me. The constant calls and Texts from Lenox Hill became too much I had to block them from further Contacting me. Why order multiple exams for me when I never agreed to move forward with anything in the first place? When I called the office the secretary said it’s procedure for ppl who are doing the surgery. I told her I never agreed to do any surgery so I was confused. Based on the way she paused after i said that, I’m assuming she wasn’t aware either. I really don’t appreciate this nonsense.
