Patient review summary
1.00
Dr. Horii and Children's Mercy in Kansas City received significant criticism due to a series of issues experienced by patients. Concerns began with Dr. Horii’s diagnosis and treatment recommendations for a child's hemangiomas, which led to unnecessary tests and referrals, including to a cardiologist who found no issues. The family's experience was marked by confusion and frustration, especially as other medical opinions contradicted Dr. Horii’s findings. The billing practices at Children’s Mercy were also heavily criticized. Patients reported a lack of communication and transparency, resulting in unexpected bills and collections, despite assurances that payments were complete. Overall, the experience was described as costly and frustrating, with a sense of mismanagement and inadequate patient care.
