  Patient for orthoscopic knee surgery. Very dissatisfied with care, result and staff issues! ..., May 21, 2012

I had a knee (minuscus) surgery performed there in 2010. They indicated that I would be back to 100% in about 10 days after this orthosopic surgery. Instead, I have been plagued with pain ever since. I did all the therapy, taken cordizone and suparts to no avail. Along the way I have had issues with the staff over appointments and payments. They have claimed on two occasions that I was grossly delinquent on payments..... first example was when I was taking a 6 week round of supparts injections. They indicated at the start that the insurance paid it all, until they discovered that this wasn't true and upon one of my last visits for this, they initially tried to suspend any further treatment until my account was paid in full....something less than $100.00. Having serious pain issues, I booked an appointment with the Doctor, who I almost never saw, always relegated to a PA, and waited the ap[proximate two months to see the Dr, before the office staff called and said I owed them $106 and the Dr would not see me until I had paid this in full and all of this years deductible, in advance.... because of my past payment history..... a one time error, that they were responsible for. I believe, personally, that the Dr. violated his Hippocratic Oath when he refused to see me based upon this. His staff would not allow me to speak direct to him and then charged me .65 cents a page for my records. I have subsequently heard that this Dr. is great for shoulders, nut that knees are not his specialty. Based upon my experience, I would agree, since I still have a serious problem with my knee. Some months after the unsuccessful surgery, they indicated to me that I might be a good candidate for a whole knee replacement....something not even remotely on the radar before the orthoscopic minuscus surgery. Based upon the level of professionalism from the office staff and the fact that I have not achieved the desired level of health promised, I would not recommend this Dr. for any surgery or
  Do not go to this doctor worst experience I ever had..., Apr 4, 2012

Dr Batolomei deliberately misrepresented his staff as being qualified in areas they are not. My wife went to the hospital with seizures after being treat at his office. I would advise you find another physician. This doctor only cares about money.
  bad doc xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx..., Mar 29, 2012

My wife went to him with a kidney infection. He said her uretheal tube was obstructed and he would need to operate. He said a simple operation wit a 6" scar and she would be all better. The scar turned into an 18' scar when we asked why he didn't have a reason. He had put a stint in the tube until it healed. He removed the stint causing my wife extreme pain. She developed a fever and had to be rushed to the E.R. The Doctor in the E.R. suggested we go to the Mayo Clinic. The Doctors there couldn't believe the scar and one doctor said he butchered you. I filed a complaint with the Iowa Board of Medicine and two weeks later we received a letter from McFarland Clinic saying we are banned from McFarland Clinics from now on.
  Southwest Medical Center Should Be Avoided At All Costs...., Mar 17, 2012

Dr Bergfeld is a good doctor, but the staff of Southwest Medical Center are some of the most discourteous, inefficient and vile folks you'll ever deal with and this is not my unique experience. They don't answer the phones and when they do, they either disconnect you, connect you to the wrong doctor, or just totally unprofessional. If your time and happiness are important to you, this is not the place to choose.
  Money More Important Than Patient Care To Dr Chadha..., Jan 10, 2012

When I went to make an appointment, I was told that I was expected to pay between $200-$300 UP FRONT to see him because I do not have health insurance. When I explained that the number was completely asinine and I could not afford to pay that amount, the receptionist spoke down to me explaining that he "is a specialist and there are set value amounts for these things" that it "has to do with codes and other confusing things" that I just "didn't understand." This angered me, as I am currently waiting to sit for my RHIT accreditation through AHIMA, meaning that I DO understand and know how to code and bill for doctor's offices. Once I explained to her that I had never coded a chart for an office visit where a patient was required to pay $200 up front due to lack of insurance, she became annoyed and suggested I go elsewhere. I would NOT suggest Dr. Chadha or any of his associates at O'Reilly Medical Consultants because apparently money is more important to them than patient care.
