Worst rheumatologist I have ever encountered. After being asked four hours before my appointment to change the appointment time I had made three weeks ago because "the doctor wants to leave early today," I was made to wait for half an hour before he saw me and examined me for less than a minute. My right knee is swollen from an unrelated issue, and he completely missed it in his examination. He then called me a liar, saying I never had the disease I saw him for (when I was diagnosed by one of the best rheumatologists in the country) and sent me out the door with a request for lab tests for a lab my insurance doesn't even cover. He claims all the "real" RA patients he has are consistently in pain and it is a progressive disease - my wife made the point that he probably believes that because he's such a terrible doctor that all of his patients get worse, not better.

If your insurance refers you to him, ask for a different referral. He's uncaring, unknowledgeable, and needs to retire so he can stop hurting patients who come to him for help.

The experience with Robert Freed has been frustrating. I left the initial consulting appointment with there being no confirmed diagnosis. And he informs me to come back when the pain is worse. I prepared to pay the co-pay I went to the front desk and the lady proceeds to inform me that they will confirm with my insurance if any payment is needed. I tell her that I'll need to pay the co-pay and she says she'll bill me if needed to. So I leave and receive a bill with my name incorrectly spelled a few months later. I received the bill late because I had moved. I paid the bill and sent an updated address along with it. I see that the check is cashed. But another month later I received a late payment notice. Then I get another notice a month after that. So I call the office and explain that the check was cashed. And the lady apologizes and asks me to send over a copy of the cashed check. I fax it over. And then today I get notice that there's a statement of delinquency. Faxed the cashed check over again. This office really needs to get it together.
