Everything about this practice was gracious.

October 24, 2019Isabelle S.Verified patient

My only concerns are that zocdoc said this provider accepted my insurance and his front office confirmed that information verbally with me, my husband, and the provider as well, but the provider again told me after I was seen that he did not think they accepted it. I am hoping I do not face an out of network bill because of this error and miscommunication as I attempted to do my due diligence in finding a provider that did accept it. Also, the first appointment that I made with them was confirmed and then canceled after I had already left work and was driving to the appointment. They said he was in surgery. I feel that I should have been informed sooner. The physician was absolutely wonderful though.
