Don't want to be misleading. ~~~ Sent by Kristie V. http://www.yelp.com/user_details?userid=6UbfI318-R00gvurpNkaag "No, it doesn't cost $150 for an accupucture consult. This is for patients who want the Dr. as their primary physican. He spends an hour with the patient going through their health history, etc. The acupuncturist is totally different from the MD visit. The acupunturist visit is not $150. Next time you may want to ask more questions before you write a misleading review. K. Johnson Palm Desert" ~~~ My reply: Hi K. Johnson, This was based on the information given to me after I asked several questions by phone. I asked so many questions, the person over the phone started getting a little short, but the reason for the questions was the cost didn't make sense. Try educating your staff on properly answering such questions and addressing basic topics such as costs of services. Next time, you may want to ask more questions of potential customers before assuming the review is misleading.

I called on 3/10 and was told by snarky scheduler Tonya on 3/10/26 that I needed a referral. My internist faxed a referral. Tonya didn't get it. Internist sent it again on 3/11. On 3/12, I was called back by a nice woman and told that Dr. Panguluri wasn't taking new patients. Then, called again on 3/13 by another nice woman who said my file would be sent to another TAVR cardiologist. I saw a NP at my internist on 3/17 and asked them to resend the referral and include my echocardiogram results. Snarky Tonya called immediately and said stop sending FAX's. I said that I told Desiree and Penny last week that I would be happy to see ANY TAVR cardiologist in their group if Panguluri was not taking new patients. When Tonya said that Panguluri wouldn't see me, I asked if he had looked at my ECHO. She said he looked at the referral. I asked about the echo again. She angrily said "he REFUSES to see you." I reiterated that I would like to see a TAVR cardiologist in their group. It may be that Panguluri does not want to see me. If that's the case, I should've been told that from the beginning. I am very suspicious of the scheduler gate keepers. After being told that my referral would be sent to another doctor on 3/13, nothing has happened as of 3/18. I will also leave a negative review on Health Grades as (like Yelp), it can't be removed.

He was definitely in a tough position at the time he arrived there but came out with incredible results. The genuine smiles I've seen since are some I've missed seeing for a long time and I'm so happy to see them back again. I have my friend back and totally owe it to Hideaway. When I visited the facility, I found it absolutely beautiful--everything is fresh and new. The people working there are more than just acquaintances; I totally consider them friends-family-game changers . Thank you Hideaway!
