Dealing with this practice turned into a nightmare, capped off by false, fraudulent billing!…read more Needing a highly specialized, complex surgery, I called the office and relayed a message ahead of time for Dr. Peter Marta specifically explaining my precise condition, and asking if he could perform the procedure in a manner that would not cause permanent damage (since the cookie-cutter manner in which the surgery is often done to save time damages other portions of the body). Marta's assistants relayed back that they had shared my precise case with him, and said that Marta told them he knew how to perform the surgery in the manner that would protect me from such problems. However, after coming to the office for a worthless visit, being kept waiting over a half-hour, and then having Marta finally come into the exam room in an irritated mood with no apology for being late, I immediately posed the question regarding whether he did the operation I needed---and whether he performed it in the manner that would not cause permanent damage to other bodily functions and/or anatomy. His response was that he DID NOT! And that if he did the surgery, the other problems I had asked about would likely occur. So there was absolutely NO EXAM!! My time with Marta lasted less than a minute or two. When I asked him why his staff had given me false information to get me to come to the office, even after I had relayed the precise condition and questions, he said, "the girls don't know what happens to patients during surgery!" After being lied to by Marta's office and wasting my valuable time, I told Marta prior to leaving that there must not be any charge to me or my insurance for the wasted visit--as again, there was absolutely no exam given nor purpose for my coming in. Marta stated that there would not be any charge, and I left. However, just as we had been lied to about everything else, Marta dummied the record to make it appear as though a routine exam had been performed---even though no such exam ever occurred, as noted--and falsely billed two insurance entities in my name, resulting in the fraudulent receipt of funds! When the false billing and payments were discovered and I called the office to seek their reversal, I was immediately insulted for calling and hung up on! Such horrible, dishonest treatment of the public is beyond disgraceful, let alone unethical and illegal. Shame on Dr. Marta!

The doctors are good, but the office staff has made it nearly impossible to access proper care…read more My doctor at Bergen Medical ordered an MRI and told me to see him again to review it in 2 weeks. Unfortunately, it has been 2 weeks and the referrals department refuses to submit the required forms for my insurance's prior authorization. I have gone back and forth with the office, and no one I speak to can provide an answer as to why they won't submit the forms. I was initially told when I called the office that my MRI had been authorized and I could go ahead with scheduling. I scheduled and my husband took the day off to bring me for the scan, but then my insurance told me I was NOT actually approved. I called the office again and I was told yes, the pre-auth process had not even started. I clarified with the referrals department to make sure there was nothing further they needed from me. The woman I spoke to rudely told me that it hadn't been done because she assumed I'd be using Pascack Valley for the scan (even though I had already confirmed with Pascack Valley I was going elsewhere, and was told I could schedule anywhere.) I checked if there was anything else she needed to submit the forms, and she said no and confirmed she'd submit it "now." Days later I call Bergen Medical again, and am told that the pre-auth process STILL has not begun. I am promised to get a call back about this in 2 business days to explain why I am being given the runaround. So of course two business days plus a weekend go by, I call Bergen Medical back, and yet again no one can help me. The forms have STILL not been submitted, despite the multiple calls and confirmation from the referrals department that it had been submitted the week prior. I don't know what else I'm supposed to do when my doctor has ordered a test and his staff won't submit the forms. I am genuinely baffled.
