I will tell you of my visit to SEI and hope and pray it goes well. I dont trust very many medical things anymore. Is this the place to ger someone to help me?

I have 2 voice messages telling me I am cleared. Yet when I arrived they could not see me (they claimed they did not receive the paperwork). I had copies with me. They could not tell me what was missing, but wait an hour for the billing manger to return. Then told me I would have to pay $600 for treatment. According to my insurance coverage I should only have to pay$50.00. They claimed I need another authorizarion. Yet according to the voice message I have an appointment. According to theIr policy they don't book an appointment unless they have all the paperwork. Lousy service, lousy office management. Are the doctors aware of how their business is being run? Reporting them to the Insurance Association, The American Medical Association and putting in a complaint to BBB. This is ridiculous! In the meantime I may go blind.

I was a patient here for 10 years. I started with DR. Trubowitsch and found him incredible. He…read moreretired a few years ago. I was then passed to three doctors. One was fired, one did not discuss any issues with patients and the third, falsified records after a mishap with a bad eye injection and inappropriate medicine injected into my eye. I had seen him for 2 years but as soon as I was in crisis over his injection, he cut me out. I tried making an appointment with a different Dr. there and the scheduler said that I had "discharged " myself. and would never be able to make an appointment there again. I knew records were falsified when the tech was explaining to me the occurrences around the bad shot incident. None of the record was true about my interactions with this office. They had constructed a complete narrative record to make it appear as if I was difficult or ignored their outreach and I was not. As they read me the details in their records, I kept responding "that never happened." The Dr was present and then walked out of the room, coming back later he said that he left because he was letting the staff argue it out with me. No argument, just a complete falsification of the bad incident occurrences by someone on staff. After this I was told I had discharged myself from the care of this business. I hadn't. I just said I would not again see Dr. Bahl. So now I have no retina care. SInce they are really the Only retina specialists ( several doctors) I must go to ABQ or Tucson for the nearest. Texas has no way to hold these folks responsible, or any complaint will be ignored or worse, falsified to make you look bad. For example when I went for the follow up after the bad shot, (They would not see me for several days after) i waited until 11:30 AM from an 8am appointment. I went to the desk and asked when I might be seen?. How many were still ahead of me? They record asks like this in their computer as a complaint. Then the Dr. said, why did you complain about your wait time? I said I just asked after waiting 3.5 hours. This of course was part of the set up, trying to upset me enough to react badly. I didn't. All in all I am amazed that this is a medical office (and very costly medicine at that). It appears the role of the Office manager is to orchestrate as above rather than respond to patients in a fair/rational manner. You may never have this happen to you there but beware when they make a mistake.
