  Provided extremely poor treatment for my father's cancer..., Jan 25, 2012

Dr. D. treated my dad's throat cancer (a term he never used with any of us). Dad responded very well to chemo and would have to remain on chemo the rest of his life. (His tumor in his neck had burst and he had a nasty wound that he had to deal with, but even it was doing well as he was switched to a milder chemo routine to keep the cancer from growing. And he was doing really well with that treatment.) Dad developed a knee infection and Dr. D stopped all treatment until knee doc released him. Dr. D continued to ignore my phone calls that dad's neck wound was really looking bad, saying he could do nothing for him at this time. Finally, knee doc suggested knee treatment be put on hold so cancer could be treated. So Dad went to see Dr. D and he still said there wasn't anything he could do right now, and he refused to look at his neck when asked to (of course, dad kept it bandaged). We brought dad to Louisville for treatment, but it was too late by then. The oncology doctors in Louisville were just mortified at his neck and the treatment he had received. They found it unimaginable that Dr. D. never looked at his neck (the actual cancer) and ignored his cancer treatment during the course of treatment of the knee infection (9 weeks approximately). Of course, we are heartbroken. I only tell my story in the hopes of helping someone else. In the end, dad regretted mine and my sister's pleas to get a second opinion in Louisville from the beginning. That one step could have changed everything. I hope this review helps someone make a better choice in choosing their oncologist.
  Horrible experience! The doc's office seems to prey on unsuspecting old patients......, Jan 9, 2012

Horrible experience! The doc's office seems to prey on unsuspecting old patients who get referred to him by their primary care physicians. I am 73 years old and my visit which is covered by Medicare and Medical ended up being billed for $225!!! for a half an hour visit. Well, the eye pressure was checked. The insurance didn't pay for $134.90 out of this amount. The office failed to warn that they don't take Medical and about the deductible on Medicare. When asked, I was assured that the visit will be covered. Anyway - now they threaten to turn the whole thing to the collections. Shameless! I live on a limited income of about $600 a month and can't afford to pay that much for a visit. The attempts to negotiate the bill have always ended up with the inability of his office to get the right info about the Medical. But this is not all. During the visit the doc kept pushing his glasses and contacts and was very irritated when we politely rejected the offers. Very awkward. It feels like they are trying to survive at the cost of the most vulnerable. I would never go there again.
  Excellent doctor would highly recommend for you and your family..., Nov 7, 2011

Very bright, very personable. Listened to all my problems. Came up with an excellent plan of diagnosis and involved me in every step of my diagnosis and treatment. I would strongly recommend her for you and your family.
  NUMBER 1 DOCTOR IN MISSOURI! SHE IS THE BEST! i have been her patient for over 25 years....., Sep 28, 2011

#1 Doctor in Missouri! DOCTOR HELENE AISENSTAT IS A CREDIT TO HER PROFESSION HER KINDESS AND SINCERITY IS GENUINE. YOU DO NOT FIND MANY DOCTORS LIKE HER, I HA VE BEEN HER PATIENT FOR OVER 25 YEARS AND I THINK VERY KINDLY OF HER AS A DOCTOR AND AS A PERSON.
  Very reliable doctor with good attitude and special attention..., Sep 6, 2011

Dr. Sam, as I call him, provides me with exellent health care for what I think is a fair price. Their practice charges a bit more to be a member of, but I certainly receive more than just compensation in attention and expertise. Dr. Sam's practice provides a standard of healthcare that all patients should have access to. I would like to see a tax rebate available for those of us who put in in more money for healthcare on top of insurance, but I won't hold my breath for that. Bottom line for me and my family is that we would not trust anyone else with our health and well being outiside of Dr. Sam's practice. We actually chose not to move out of Peoria mostly for this reason.
