No help or care, no followup and a big, unexpected bill. ..., Nov 26, 2011 I was very unhappy with my visit to Dr. Lin. I had a painful ear problem that had been going on for a month, and all she did was look in my ear and say she didn't find anything. No inquires about how long I've had the problem and attempt to investigate the issue. She eventually did a very small procedures that she said might help or might not, and then charged the procedure as ambulatory surgery so that I would have to pay for half the cost instead just an office visit which is covered. Despite the fact that I left in pain, she never followed-up and never even attempted to help figure out what is wrong with me. I'm still in pain.

Dr. Mujahed Ahmed, excellent physician, diagnostician and person. Top rated..., Feb 7, 2012 Dr. Ahmed is a gentleman and cares for his patients in a professional manor. He is always available and personally returns phone calls. His office staff are very helpful and treat each patient with care and compassion. Dr. Ahmed is a good diagnostician, and will continue to work with a patient to find a diagnosis and treatments to help keep his patients healthy. He is a very patient, kind person who truly cares and knows all of his patients. |

Dr. Aldea Bamboozled Me, Don't Go to his practice!..., Jan 28, 2012 DO THESE THINGS BEFORE YOU COMMIT TO SURGERY WITH DR. ALDEA: 1) Ask for the refund policy before you pay ANYTHING. You might not be provided the refund policy after you've paid the deposit. There are many outs for him not to return money if the surgery doesn't happen. 2) Don't be fooled by the good reviews out there. Some sites allow surgeons to only display the good reviews and not the negative ones. 3) Research to see if there are any lawsuits filed against him first. My experience with Dr. Aldea was NOT pleasant. He showed up 1 hr late for my surgery. Many of the nursing staff at St. Francis commented that he's frequently late and his surgeries always run over (which means you'll pay much more in the end!) On the OR table we both learned I had an irregular heartbeat. Dr. Aldea canceled the surgery but agreed to do it later if cardiac clearance was obtained. I got clearance which said that my condition was benign and to proceed with surgery as planned, but he never was satisfied, he found every excuse in the book not to do it. He dodged my calls for months! I wanted to get specifics from him on what he needed from the cardiologist. He kept having his patient coordinators say the same vague thing, "Dr. Aldea needs to know the surgery is safe for you." No cardiologist in their right mind will write "safe" in a letter. They will only say low-high risk. BTW 2 cardiologists wrote that I was low risk for the surgery and at no higher risk than a person who didn't have an irregular heartbeat. After many unreturned calls from Dr. Aldea, I got upset and asked for the truth and a refund if he didn't want to operate. He responded and said that I was ungrateful and here's your refund minus $750 deposit and he said that I didn't want the surgery. I responded that I did want the surgery but was tired of the run around and asked that he personally return a call so that we could clear up misunderstandings. His coordinator responded that he would not do the surgery until he got |

New Patients Beware - Office staff and Dr NOT helpful..., Dec 2, 2011 Scheduled an appt as a new patient with the office. Showed up at sheduled time, Someone never entered my appt into the system. Dr said she couldn't see me, I would have to reschedule. Had to reschedule for 7:15 Friday morning because I was going to be out of blood pressure medication. Driving there Friday morning from East side of Columbus, ran into traffic. Called office to tell them I would be 15 minutes late, was told once again I would have to reschedule and there was nothing they could do to help me. I WOULD NOT GO TO THIS DR. |

Incompetent and bill me for service that I never had..., Oct 19, 2011 Dr Sean Haugh is not a very professional doctor. He billed me for office visit that I never have. He never return call when I need to reach him. This doctor is also not very competent on his job. He can't even give me a fine diagnosis on my illness. Whenever I asked him my diagnosis; he will defer to something else and never really want to answer my question. My advise is to avoid this doctor because you will end up paying more than you have to and on the top of it you didn't get a good care. |
