Dr. Ronan is one of the best doctors I've ever had. Unfortunately, I've had A LOT, due to chronic…read morerespiratory issues. Dr. Ronan was the third pulmonologist I sought care from and have never looked back. She's EXTREMELY smart, up-to-date on all current medical research, spends so much time with each patient, and is genuinely invested in your well-being and health. I have a habit of googling and researching my symptoms and diagnoses and this is not always received well by other doctors I've had. However, Dr. Ronan encourages me to do this, as she knows the patient is an expert on their own bodies, so she wants to take into consideration any possible theories you may have about what's going on. In addition to Dr. Ronan, her staff are amazing. Her MA is quick and responsive. They have the prior authorization process down and will work to challenge insurance companies if initially given a denial. I've told Dr. Ronan that I literally owe her my life. She brought me back from the lowest point in my life, due to chronic illness, to a place where I can live a happy, healthy, "normal" life of a 42 year old. She never gave up, even though my conditions were complex and took a lot of trial and error, and was along side me through everything. Everyone deserves a doctor like Dr. Ronan!

I had the best experience with Dr. Bridgett Ronin and Arizona Pulmonary Specialists. I had a chest…read morex-ray that was very concerning and wanted to see a specialist ASAP. I called the office and Maggie the scheduler, was able to get me in to see Dr. Bridgett Ronan in a few days. The office assisted me in having my CT scan results sent to their office prior to my visit. Once I arrived at the office they checked my temperature before I entered the lobby, ensuring the safety of all patients present in the waiting area. Kasia, the doctor's assistant checked my vitals and gave me a brief pulmonary function test. She was very friendly but also very efficient. Shortly after I was checked into the room, Dr. Ronin arrived and explained my CT scan in great detail. She was warm and friendly at the same time very professional. She not only explained the results of my CT scan, she showed me the images and how she arrived at her determination. She took a lot of time explaining my condition and I felt very confident in her advice. She did deliver good news but I must say that even if she were giving me not such good news, she would have done it in a very detailed and compassionate way. I will be followed by Dr. Ronin for the foreseeable future to monitor my condition, and I really look forward to seeing her again. I'm 61 years old and Dr. Ronin is one of the best doctors I've ever encountered. I would recommend her to anyone who wants a very knowledgeable, educated, warm and compassionate doctor.

They scheduled my appointment for 1/26 but that was cancelled by them and rescheduled for 2/1. When I called to schedule, they gave detailed instructions as to where they're located and instructed me to check in 30 min before my appt time to fill out paperwork. You'll need the full 30 min to do this. When I met with Erin, she took her time to explain everything to me and was very patient and answered all of my questions. This is the type of care I expect when I see a medical professional and I was so happy to see that these types of medical professionals still exist. I also had to have a chest x-ray and a blood draw and the nurses helping me were super nice and joked around with me, which I liked. The office is super efficient too and all my medical information was scanned in and reviewed by Erin and I felt her recommendations were trustworthy and spot on.

I waited more than 30 minutes in the exam room before having to go to the front desk to see what the delay was. No one ever checked on me. After inquiring, somehow the doctor was suddenly available.

While my first visit was nice, recurring visits were awful…read more The main doctor I saw was nice, knew what he was talking about and explained everything I needed to do/testing/etc. clearly and concisely. Then; my follow up appointments were shoved around twice because he wasn't available. I had to see a nurse who noticed issues with my lungs; when I asked about trying to figure out what had caused the issues she clearly wasn't interested - "Well they seem to be getting better so call us if you have any issues". This is my *lungs* we are talking about and she didn't care at all about my concerns. My last visit was a visit scheduled months in advance; I had brought everything to the appointment as I wanted to talk to the doctor about things. The front desk then informs me that I cannot see the doctor because my referral had expired. When I informed her that it was insanely unprofessional to just let their patients' referrals expire without warning she merely told me "Sorry, it's the patient's responsibility to keep track of referrals." How am I supposed to keep track of this when *your* referral department (spoiler: They do not have one! Red flag!!) has all this information? My time was wasted and nobody who worked there could care less. Needless to say I've switched providers and I absolutely do not recommend anyone else visit.

If you are Awake then avoid this place!…read more I took my mother here in hopes of getting approval for an oxygen machine thru Medicare, due to the partial lung removal she had a decade ago. She is short of breath regularly, so I thought oxygen machine would be a good fix for this problem. The place must be very busy because the first available appointment was 5+ weeks out. Usually in a busy office they are many other people getting treatment when you show up, but in this case the office was empty of any other patients. They weren't busy at all. Upon arrival they collected all of the forms we had filled out and got us back into an exam room right away. The med tech came in to do some basic testing and breathing evaluations. I explained the purpose for our visit right away, and he seemed to change his attitude after this. He was also concerned that they didn't have any of the records from her history. He was very polite during his exam, but I had to laugh at the fact that he was wearing a cloth mask. A pulmonary office should be aware of the negative effects caused by wearing a mask all day, but since the office staff didn't have masks on I knew that it was a choice thing for him. Next the doctor showed up wearing a mask, and I almost got up and walked out at that point. After talking with him, and explaining the reason for our visit he said he couldn't help us because the EtcO2 readings she had were over 88. He then tried to argue for an inhaler treatment, which I refused. They didn't bother doing any of the exercises testing, which would have shown her need for the oxygen. If you want to see a doctor that doesn't even know that mask wearing is detrimental to your health, then this is your place. If you are still wear a mask yourself then this is your place, but if you have a brain then you'll avoid this place. This group should be avoided at all costs. You can't fix EVIL or STUPID, and I believe that these people are both! What happened to "Do know harm?"

I am submitting this complaint regarding Dr. Arturo Castro Jr. at East Valley Center for Pulmonary…read more& Sleep Disorder due to unprofessional conduct, dissemination of false information, and what I believe to be retaliatory patient abandonment. My wife has stage four lung cancer. Over the past three months, she has been repeatedly hospitalized at Banner Hospital and Mercy Gilbert Hospital due to tumor progression in her lungs and recurrent pneumonia. During these hospitalizations, Dr. Castro was one of the physicians who evaluated her. One day prior to my wife's discharge from the hospital, I spoke directly with Dr. Castro and requested that oxygen be arranged for her transportation home and continued home use. Dr. Castro stated that he would not order oxygen unless my wife came to his office for a follow-up appointment first, after which he would submit an order to Preferred Home Care. I explained that during prior hospitalizations, oxygen was arranged directly by the hospital before discharge. Dr. Castro responded that this "is not how it works" and that my wife "would not be approved" unless she first saw him in his office. This information was false. Hospitals are fully able to arrange discharge oxygen when medically necessary, which was later confirmed by hospital staff and another pulmonologist. The interaction left me with the strong impression that Dr. Castro was intentionally creating barriers in order to force an office visit before providing medically necessary equipment. Because my wife was extremely weak, we planned to follow up with pulmonology once she stabilized. After discharge, we contacted the same office to schedule an appointment with a different pulmonologist. At that time, we were told by office staff that my wife's name had been marked in the system as "Do Not Accept Patient" under Dr. Castro's instructions. I was shocked. My wife has done nothing wrong. She is a critically ill cancer patient who requires medical care. Blocking her from accessing any physician in that practice appears retaliatory and punitive simply because I questioned inaccurate information provided by Dr. Castro. This behavior raises serious concerns: * Retaliation against a patient * Interference with access to care * Dissemination of false medical and administrative information * Possible patient abandonment Physicians take an oath to place patient welfare first. Denying or obstructing care to a terminally ill patient because a family member questioned incorrect information is unacceptable. My wife is fighting for her life. She should never be used as leverage in a personal or financial dispute. I am requesting that this matter be formally reviewed and documented. I also strongly advise patients to be cautious when seeking care from this provider.
