They do not view you or anybody else as a lessor patient due to being on Medicare. You are entitled to an opinion, however you are incorrect on this one. If one does not like how this office operates, then you should move on to whatever or wherever it is that will make you feel more comfortable......and whole.
All I can say is what I was told. "The Doctor does not see clinic patients". Yet others say he sees them. I assumed it was because I was on medicare. I don't know how he makes his decision. But for a dr to refuse to see me for whatever reason --I AM HIS PATIENT. I never went back after the stitches were taken out - not by HIM either. And I know he heard his assistant and me talking. I am not incorrect. I know what I heard. I did move on. I hope this makes my experience clear. And Dr. Tran operated on my back. That was when I asked if I could see him the next visit and then told he does not see clinic patients. The assistant took out the stitches. Nuff said…. I'm somewhere else…Maybe the others "made the grade" whatever that is. the lucky ones he will deign to see.
