Patient Reviews
Feb 06, 2021
I was not informed of the cost of the procedure and was simply told my insurance covered it. They charged for random things aside from the fetal echo scan noted on the invoice as "other fetal evaluations" even though it was only supposed to be a fetal echo. I researched what a scan like this should roughly cost both with and without insurance and this office charged 4 times the amount just to see what they could squeeze out of the insurance as noted by the front person I spoke to. To make matters worse I never received a bill or explanation and was sent to collections. I would never recommend this practice especially with such a delicate matter.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
