I used to go to Dr. Astrachan years ago and he is a great doctor. But recently I went to Hamden and…read morenever saw him after THREE visits. I was supposed to have a hearing test waited two hours never happened because one of the other doctors blew a gasket telling me I wasn't his patient and would have to wait. Well I ended up leaving. I made yet another appointment and got the dates mixed up and didn't go. They charged me $25 for a missed appointment. I actually sent them a payment but the check never cleared. I called the billing office and told them to re present the check. THEY NEVER RETURNED MY CALL. Then several weeks later I received a bill for $50!!! I called this time they answered in the billing department and I told them what happened. They didn't care. I ended up paying the $50. Expensive lesson but I learned. Do yourself a favor and go to Dr. Melnick in New Britain. No problems there.

The clincher for me to move on came when I got some lab tests and then made a followup appointment to see him. After waiting 30 minutes or more, he finally came into the exam room looked at my chart for 15 seconds and said he wanted me to make an appointment to have a minor procedure done and then walked out. The question is why he couldn't have one of his assistants call me to tell me to set up an appointment for the procedure and save me an hour out of my day, a $50 copay (which I argued against and lost), etc. This told me that, like another poster said, this office was all about money and not caring about consideration for their patients.

We had an appointment that I missed bc I woke up late, I called to see if they would still see us unfortunately the Dr. Was tightly booked but I was able to get an appointment with the APRN (his nurse-Debi) just a few hours later she was attentive kind concerned and explained everything, that my son who's 17 is going thru bc of his ear infections. A condition he has had since birth. This is our 1st time with this Dr. And wished we had him years ago. He was given a hearing test, Ears checked through a microscope and that's how this visit was everything for me felt like it was done using a microscope. I'd also like to mention Terry the nurse she was the exact same way with my son. Concerned and patient in talking with us. I know there's not a better Dr. Specialist office out there!

I called to discuss their error and was told I was billed for TWO office visits for my ONE appointment! So while my 'annual physical' appt was covered 100% under preventative, I was on the line for the 2nd office visit of $250. When we went into the nitty gritty of why I was charged for a 2nd visit, it was from a question the doc asked ME, which I responded with 'it's fine'. It wasn't even a conversation lasting more then 5 SECONDS. After FOUR attempts at calling them to resolve my issue, which nobody ever called me back, I gave up and now go elsewhere.
