Dr Stohle is untrustworthy. He is more interested in money than in his patients' welfare. At a standard visit he pushed an unnecessary surgery for his convenience to pad the bill. When I explained that I could not afford and would prefer to wait and see, as he had originally slipped - was an option, he asked me to remove my insurance card from my wallet, handed it to a staff member, had her go to the front staff to "confirm" that there would be "no additional out-of-pocket" to do the procedure and that it would take 10 additional minutes." After the procedure which he struggled with, I was shuttled to the front desk to "pay before you leave." They asked me to write a check for $350 (about half of the procedure cost, a $500 upsell from the original exam cost.) I asked to speak with the Doctor, because he had just confirmed coverage through insurance and said all but $55 would be covered and pointed to the $55 copay number on my insurance card. After waiting to see if I had to write a check for that much, they returned and explained "the way it works is that you pay us now and the insurance company reimburses you and sends you a check." The result: THEY SENT ME TO COLLECTIONS for $200 and I have permanent scarring in my mouth.

About Front Desk: The front staff were non remarkable. But when it came to calling for their money, they were rude, ruthless and abusive.
