Creationist, not Scientist, Overprescribes antibiotics..., Mar 19, 2012 If you want to wait forever to get in to see your child's doctor, to have anti-biotics prescribed willy-nilly, or to visit with doctors who believe in creationism and not science then ABC Pediatrics is your practice. My oldest daughter has constant sinus infections, so I took her to an allergist to see if there was an environmental cause for her illness', and in the course of reviewing her medicines, lots of anti-biotics and a steroid. I have been given cause to doubt that she has been treated effectively. One Saturday I took my oldest daughter in for a sick visit, she was complaining about an ear ache, to the Alameda office, where I see that Dr. Gregory Guthrie has stocked all of his examination rooms with the creationist clap-trap, "The Great Dinosaur Mystery and the Bible." I had seen this book in an office on a previous visit, but mistakenly thought another parent had left it there. Now that I've seen this in another room, alongside with other tomes from the Bay Area Fellowship, alarm bells start ringing in my head. And a conversation with Dr. Guthrie, "I put that book in all my waiting rooms," and three different scripts for anti-biotics convinced me that I never want to see him near my child again. On Ash Wednesday I had a 2:45 appointment scheduled with my regular pediatrician, Dr. Tessa Perez at the Saratoga office, for my youngest daughter's 4 month check-up. I was finally brought back to the doctor's office at 4:10 (I have to pick up my oldest at school by 4:30, a fact I brought to the intake nurse starting at 3:30). I brought up Dr. Guthrie to Dr. Perez and she defended him, and proceeded to explain to me that she was a "conservative Catholic who didn't believe in evolution" and that everything that I was taught about evolution by Father Norris in my 11th grade Catholic Dogma class was wrong. And now it's 4:23, I have 7 minutes to make my 7 minute drive to pick-up my oldest daughter, and no time to get my youngest's immunizations.

Go see the REAL Dr. Tony Mork of Newport Beach, CA! ..., Mar 4, 2013 Dr. Tony Mork of Newport Beach and his staff were very friendly and helpful with my decision to have surgery. There was never any pressure, and never once did I feel like I was bothering them with my questions or calls. I never heard of Dr. Mork having an office in wherever this city listed is, but I want to make sure that you know the real Dr. Tony Mork is in Newport Beach, CA and it's no wonder that people from all over the country travel to him! He is one of the best in his field, and I have been living virtually pain-free ever since! Worth every penny! |

Unable to get the treatment that I came in for instead sent elsewhere to be treated for something th..., Feb 24, 2013 Can't beleive it. Was dismissed because of my inabvility to urinate. Was denied the option that was given to me by the nurse to come back and try again, the office manager Jeanette demanded that I leave IMMEDIATELY and that I was dismissed right, then while in the exam room, and NOT finished with my appointment with the doctor. Asked to speak to Dr. Revollo to find out why I was being dismissed and she REFUSED to let me EVER see him and that I needed to leave NOW. She threatened to call the police and press harrassment charges on me if I call there and to have me arrested if I come ANYWHERE NEAR the office. LIED to my insurance company that I was NON-COMPLIANT just because I was UNABLE to urinate at that moment. But 2-3 days later I get a referral for orthopedics for knee pain for 99 visits good till 12-31-2013 and x-rays all for my KNEES. I came in for WRIST pain and swelling and to get a referral under my new insurance for the Rheumatologist he sent me to on my old insurance. All this AFTER I was supposedly dismissed. The referral was mailed to me 4 days after the dismissal. They also refuse to release your medical records to you so you can find a doctor to get proper medical attention and treatment. |

Been a patient for a very long time..................., Feb 20, 2013 I have been a patient for a very long time with Dr. Conrad. He has been in practice for quite some time and is very knowledgeable. My daughter and her husband were very pleased with their experience. But I knew they would be because I am. |

Peddles quack medicine and couldn't care less about a patient's time (part 2)..., Jan 29, 2013 will charge you like a wounded bull for their own precious time? Arrogance? Disdain? The kind of greed that pushes them to cram their appointment schedule with as many patients as possible per day? And would it kill their staff to at least offer up some kind of token apology or explanation when keeping you waiting interminably? Whatever, I got up and left in disgust. Having done my homework via the internet on the allergy test Dr. Masri peddles so stridently, and added to the manner with which he so casually played with my own health via the dismissive attitude he took to the views of gastroenterology specialists I’ve seen through the years, I’d already decided that he was certainly not the kind of medical practitioner I wanted to entrust my health to, or that of my family, on a long term basis. After the fiasco of waiting to see him so long, my view was doubly confirmed. |
