I never went back based on the horrific experience(s) of my consultation.
One of the rudest women imaginably employed behind the desk. This is saying a lot because I've come to expect that from most of the women behind most of those desks. However, this lady hung up on me when I called for directions because I was lost and more interested in finding the doctors office before I answered her ridiculous (irrelevant, at the time) questions about "who was I seeing" "what time my appointment was"...
They left me in the waiting room for over an hour when I finally managed to get there on my own. They sat there very obviously gossiping about me, looking at me and generally making me uncomfortable while simultaneously refusing to give me any informative information whatsoever. They managed to convince me to put my credit card "on file" - claiming "policy" then REFUSED to give it back or destroy it.
The doctor finally came in to see me and casually mentioned that he'd remove my cyst "right now" for about $2200 (they claimed my insurance would not cover it). As, someone mentioned above, he was definitely an "eye-roller", curt, short and generally seemed entirely ambivalent to my presence or problems. When I said I might look into another doctor who excepted my insurance the "helpful" assistant informed me that she "really would recommend another doctor who took my insurance but she just didn't know of ANY "good" ones that would".
OKAY. $40 later (co-pay) the cyst has been removed by a WONDERFUL Doctor in another office.
I want to NOTE* that I did not see Sarnoff, who I understand is supposed to be a good doctor, but nearly everyone I spoke with was impossibly rude, arrogant, unprofessional and horrible.
Don't go there.
