I'm on my second day without my blood pressure medicine. Walgreens sent a request twice and I've called twice. secretary told me yesterday the dr would call me today. Half the day is gone with no call from the dr. I call the office and begin to explain a issue to the secretary she yells over me and doesn't allow me to explain. Then abruptly without warning puts me on hold where I waited for 9 mins before calling back. everytime I call back she sends me to hold. very unprofessional staff.

My husband and I were patients of his since 2017. Never had an issue until I asked him how would I go about getting an adult autism assessment. He said "You're better off not knowing." I wanted to know because my daughter is autistic and wanted to know what were the chances of it being genetics. Yesterday, 3/21/25, we had an appointment with him (never missed any appointments before in the past. Never had any issues in the past). Completely forgot about the appointment because we had our daughter's ABA assessment meeting, the secretary was willing to change the appointment with no issues. He called my husband asking why did we schedule the ABA meeting during his appointment time, my husband explained we had the original appointment made in February but my daughter got sick and had to reschedule it for March. He told my husband that we need to find a new doctor and hung up on my husband and then called me on his personal number, left a message to call him back and when I did call him back and told him he is unprofessional and that I will be filing a complaint with my insurance he said "There was no need for me to call him to tell him this." Sir, then why are you calling me?!?!?! Don't get mad at my REACTION towards your ACTIONS. The email letters sufficient enough. I will be contacting a civil rights attorney because this kinda sounds fishy and see what they tell me. But I did file a complaint with my insurance company and I recommend that everyone who has had or still has issues with him do it as well. He also refuses to send my husband's medical records to Social Security and my husband's attorney as he is fighting to get Permanent Disability. read more

After 2 visits I can honestly say this is a Terrible place. Service behind the desk is rude. Parked In the back and had to walk up the ramp which slippery with ice from previous day. Politely warned the staff it's dangerous to walk up the ramp cause of the conditions and 2 out of 3 told me to "tell the Doctor cause that's not in My Job description". He makes it obvious he's not a caring doctor by pushing random tests that have nothing to do with the visit. Rather than prescribe me conveniently accessible medicine, I've had to apply for a muscle relaxer ONLINE he prescribed which didn't arrive for 4 days (was suppose to help with pain by the way). Next visit he tried to get me to travel 25 miles for one which I declined. Obviously he is a pusher for the Pharms for whatever kickbacks they give. DO NOT GO HERE, I guarantee this guy has a hidden agenda! WASTE OF A MONTH AND I'M STUCK WITH SAME ISSUES. read more

I found Dr. Boyd to be a personable & knowledgable man. I've never met him in person because COVID. This review is based on his staff: Tim was VERY nice, but there were two different females that I spoke to that set me off. One older than the other was condescending IMHO (maybe she was having a bad day but leave your shit at home when dealing with patients), and the younger one irresponsible. I called on a Tuesday asking her to send repeat blood draw instructions to Quest as per Dr. B for my 7:30am appointment on Friday. She said no problem. I get there on Friday and the techs had no order for me, and it was too early to call the doctor's office. I got up early to go and return home before I had to log in to work so of course I was annoyed. They have not called to see me again/monitor me for my newest diagnosis; I'm sure Dr B thinks it is for a different reason (a consultation he had with another of my doctors which culminated in having to cancel a planned surgery), but no ... having to get up early for nothing is the reason. I found another physician who was much more thorough, is more holistically-minded, and is monitoring me now. read more

Extremely unprofessional female staff. They want the patient and pharmacy to do their jobs. DO NOT GO THERE !!

Big Driver of Medicare Spending: Doctors Doing More Tests in Their Offices Some of the fastest-growing Medicare costs stem from doctors using new medical devices, the latest data show Robert Boyd, a doctor with a family practice in Woodbridge, N.J., began to test more patients in recent years for an unusual neurological condition. He used a device to test whether people sweat in response to a low-voltage current, a way to diagnose nerve damage. In 2014, he collected $105,905 from Medicare for the procedures. Testing for the condition rose nationwide in recent years after a device became available that allows doctors to perform tests in their offices--and to make more profit from Medicare for doing so. The federal program for seniors and disabled people paid out $16.7 million for the test in 2014, according to the latest data, a 10-fold increase from two years earlier. Such increases are commonplace after the introduction of medical devices that allow doctors to provide services in their offices that they used to refer elsewhere. A Wall Street Journal analysis of recently released Medicare billing data showed that four of the top 10 fastest-growing Medicare services from 2012 to 2014 involved new devices. Medicare's tab for those four services rose by $123.5 million from 2012 to 2014, to $135 million, the data show. In each case, a small cadre of doctors adopted the services much faster than their peers. Less than 10% of doctors accounted for more than half the rise in spending for each service, the Journal found. The Journal studied only services performed throughout that period with at least $5 million in 2014 payments. Big Driver of Medicare Spending: Doctors Doing More Tests in Their Offices Those totals aren't large in comparison to Medicare's $600 billion annual budget, but spikes in any of the thousands of services the government pays are one big driver of runaway health costs. The agency paid doctors, labs and other medical providers for at least 11,448 services in 2014, billing data show. Big Driver of Medicare Spending: Doctors Doing More Tests in Their Offices Dr. Boyd, one of the doctors who receives the most Medicare payments for the sweat test, says the procedures are helpful for his patients. "A lot of times, you show a patient a report, you can see that there's something there and that can motivate them," he says. Experts undecided Some neurologists who are experts on the nerve condition say there hasn't been any major increase in incidence, and that it isn't clear the new test is an improvement on older methods. The way Medicare sets payments for new services can make doing the tests lucrative for doctors who invest in the machines. Medicare sets prices each year based on assumptions about the costs and time required to provide each of thousands of services. Sometimes new devices disrupt those assumptions or require regulators to make guesses. Improvements in medical technology, such as the emergence of genetic testing in recent years, naturally lead to growth in those services as doctors employ better science. Financial incentives for medical providers can be as big a driver of adoption as scientific breakthroughs, according to former Medicare officials and experts who study the program. "We don't want to deny lifesaving technologies or even things that would make older people feel better," says Rita Redberg, a cardiologist at the University of California, San Francisco and chairwoman of a Medicare advisory committee that examines new technology. "But, right now, the balance is leaning toward just paying for things." Medicare spokesman Aaron Albright says the agency closely monitors spending on each service so "we can correct [billing] codes that may be misvalued and identify possible improper payment without limiting patient access to important new therapies." A test to measure the saltiness of tears--known as tear osmolarity--was among the 10 fastest-growing services with high billings. In 2012, a company called TearLab Corp. introduced a device that allows eye doctors to perform that service in their offices and bill separately for it. The test is meant to help doctors diagnose whether patients' eyes are too dry. Overall, about 3,000 medical providers, mostly ophthalmologists and optometrists, received $14.8 million in 2014 payments for the tear test, up from $1.75 million in 2012, when the test was introduced and Medicare began covering its use. The top biller for the test in 2014, Brooklyn, N.Y., ophthalmologist Stanley Bykov, received $130,795 for it from Medicare that year, billing data show. He tested 84% of his Medicare patients at least once in 2014, compared with a median of about 11% for medic read more

I had a 9.50 appointment for a family member, we were not seen until 12.30. I was not offered an apology, or any type of compensation. Dr. Boyd is a good doctor don't get me wrong, but when a patient says, "I have been waiting for 3 hours, I would atleast like an apology" And the doctor says "I cannot offer an apology" it pisses me off to tell someone about it. In fact, 2 people arrived AFTER we arrived. Those 2 people in paricular were seen BEFORE us. We were waiting a full hour after his weight was checked, in the office just waiting to be seen by the doctor. If I got an apology from one of the 3 people I complained to, I wouldnt have bothered writing this out. However, this is the most unacceptable wait at a doctors officeI have ever had. It was bad enough the parking lot had no open parking spots when we pulled in. All I wanted was some type of "I am sorry this happened to you." Now, they are getting a bad review. Make sure you pack lunch and dinner if you want to schedule your next appointment. read more

Dr. Boyd is an excellent and knowledgeable doctor, and his nurses are delightfully nice. However, I am solely giving this office one star based on my horrible experience with a patronizing, dismissive, and rude receptionist by the name of Tim. After calling the office to have my approved referral from Dr. Boyd sent over to a specialist, I was immediately met with a condescending and frustrated attitude from Tim. To the best of my knowledge, I had supplied him with the correct information I was given by my specialist and insurance company. Though before I could even finish my request, Tim did not think my information was sufficient enough to process the referral. Admittedly, like most patients, I'm not very knowledgeable of the proper steps that are needed to process referrals. And as a healthcare professional, I'm sure Tim is, so I gave him the benefit of the doubt. But instead of maturely allowing me to finish my request or at least advise me of what else I needed for the process, he decided to proceed in the conversation with a juvenile reaction which resembled that of a 16 year old teenage girl: He talked over and interrupted me, he spoke down to me, he ignored my questions and responses, and he rejected my legitimate need for help. After walking all over me, he rushed me off the phone. All I did was call in for my referral that was already approved. With a respectful approach nonetheless. Why was I treated in such an inappropriate way? My inexperience and concerns as a patient were just seen as a frustrating nuisance to Tim. I had even intended to ask additional questions regarding a sensitive prescription as well, but after the way Tim treated me, I had no confidence he'd treat my questions with any sensitivity or professionalism. No one should have to be fearful of calling their doctor's office because they might encounter a patronizing and inconsiderate staff member like Tim. But now I am...and it's not right. It's never right. Writing this one star review is my way of standing up for myself. It's unfortunate because Dr. Boyd is an excellent doctor, but I have to speak out on how I was offensively treated by a staff member and provide a warning to anyone considering using this office: Beware of Tim. read more
