    TD;LR- Complete cluster, wasted tons of time & time off work and no further along now than when I…read morestarted. I had a referral for a CT scan, appointment was made, when I showed up I was informed it had been rescheduled (without telling me) and that my insurance may not cover it. I informed them I would pay out of pocket if needed, and rescheduled for the following week, (which was noted in the account by the person working the check in area). I received a call at 4:00pm the day before the 2nd scheduled appointment to confirm the time and date. I reiterated that I was ok with it being out of pocket (this person was unaware). I showed up the next morning and was told I had been rescheduled again- after they confirmed it, and without telling me! Apparently this happened10 minutes after the confirmation phone call, which was initiated by SimonMed. The front desk was apologetic but completely unhelpful, I asked for a phone number, she said I could go find the the office manager in person the following week, and that she had no contact information other than that. I then found a corporate number spoke to a representative for 25 minutes and was disconnected while he tried to reschedule. This outfit is completely unprofessional and inept. I have lost any faith in the scan or medical staff, if they can't even schedule correctly. This whole process has delayed my care and any concurrent appointments with my doctors, along with costing me time off of work. I would avoid them, the frustration, and find another company. I see now in the other reviews that this is a common issue for them. I would not trust my health with such incompetence.

    To be fair, all my doctors request that I use SM imaging rather than other companies. They prefer…read morethe images produced by SM. Also, to be fair, once past the schedulers and gatekeepers, etc., the back-room (pro) staff are good. Sometimes very good. But their front-facing (customer service-related) staff and, more to the point, systems are often inefficient and close to their edge. And, to my main gripe, their phone system and procedures are painful to use at best and broken at worst. I'll summarize many experiences trying to engage with them by phone, with my most recent infuriating example. Yesterday, I learned that my out-of-pocket expense for an MRI increased by about 10% within a week. Curious, I tried to find out why. I called the system, and 1.5 hours later, learned that they simply can't answer the question of what I'll need to pay. My latest phone engagement with them lasted 1.5h. During that time, I was transferred among eight different people in three departments. The repetition was because, for a while, I got stuck in a phone-tree cyclone. For each of the 8 transfers, they asked me to verify my name (spelled out), date of birth, full address, phone number, and email address 8 times. My experience can be summarized with "ugh" (if polite) or "AAAHHHHHH" (if more accurate). When I lose my cool, I stop saying as many "please's" and "thank you's". I don't shift to rude but my tone takes on a hint of anxiety. That's me losing my cool. When they lost their cool with my loss of cool, one hung up on me, one attempted to re-explain the same (wrong) thing five times (she didn't understand how I was slipping through their cracks), and another refused to allow me to speak to a supervisor after I realized that I needed more professional-level help. Oh! and they gave me three different price quotes for the following procedure, all of which differed notably from one another and from what my insurance permits. So, from that experience, all I learned was that SM needs a serious reexamination of their customer service staffing and additional training, almost across the board. Each time I work with them, I vow never to work with them again. But my doctors prefer their images, and I keep telling myself that next time can't be as bad as the ones before. But, alas, it only gets worse. One of these days, I'll beg my Phoenix and PV doctors to use Prescott Medical Imaging (which is seamless) and hope they bite. And so, before you now, I vow, again, that THIS time will be my last. Next time, I'll go elsewhere... ANYwhere else. I'll go to Kinkos for my next MRI if they'll have me. If SM provided a therapist in every scan, we'd all be better off.
