List 9 Doctor of Medicine (MD) near St. Petersburg, FL (part 3)

Mag Pugs I mean this when I say, this was quite literally the most efficient, pleasant ER experience I’ve ever had. I came in with some significant burns to my chest and torso (pain was there but bearable enough to be ready to wait, considering it’s the ER and all) checking in was smooth, vitals 10 minutes later, triage 30 minutes later, and taken back in another 5 minutes. Now I understand burns can take priority over some cases so I may have been pushed through faster, but still very quick considering. Trey whom escorted me back was uplifting and happy. Both my P.A and nurse were comforting and quick and all within 3 hours, I’m treated + bandaged and pain free. To the entire staff on 1/23/25 around 6pm, thank you!!

Chance Richards Terrible. Went in due to a heart issue with specific instructions from my PCP to have an echocardiogram done. They proceeded to keep me in a room for ~4 hours, run multiple tests like EKGs that had already been done just hours earlier by my doctor (all documented on materials I gave them upon arrival), and NOT run an echocradiogram. To top it off, they left me in a room for the final hour+ without letting me know I was free to go, it tooko a nurse wondering why I was still in the room for someone to let me know I was cleared. So after not doing the echo at all, I had to pay elsewhere to get it done and then got hit with an 8k bill for services I clearly didnt need done. I dont have the money to pay the remaining balance (~3500$) that my insurance refuses to cover, and BayCare refuses to work with me to reduce the bill despite acknowledging that the services rendered "may not" have been necessary. Avoid at all costs.

Marie Dunbar Terrible Experience. First when I walked in they had me register my palm which was weird as hell. Then I was place in a room with 3 female nurses who were rushing through putting the EKG and had me take off my shirt and bra in a room they kept opening the door to and push down my robe to expose my breast when I tried to cover myself. At one point a male nurse opened the door to walk in Without knocking! I have never been to a hospital where there wasn’t a courtesy knock to alert anyone inside. After the nurse tried to do an IV with a loose tourniquet and then got upset after I expressed it hurt because she was rushing, she annoyingly told me she would get someone else to do it and left. After that I immediately got dressed and walked out. Never again. Do better.

Cody Unless you are physically injured with blood and broken bones or can’t breath.. DO NOT GO HERE. They will sit you in the waiting room, get all their tests that add up your bill done, while you sit in a waiting room chair. It will be 3+ hours before you are actually seen and given a private room. Just left here with my girlfriend who likely has Norovirus. Whilst in said waiting room area she is bent over crying in pain trying not to vomit everywhere for 3 hours before we decided to leave because even then…they could not give us an estimate of when we’d be seen rather told us there were a lot of emergency vehicles coming in the back so it could be a while. Do yourself a favor and make the trip to Tampa general. This place is a joke.

David D If you are unlucky enough to need emergency services, but lucky enough to be asked which hospital you prefer, I recommend St. Anthonys. After the "causal" interview & prompt MRI of my head, I was cleaned up and sutured, observations/interactions with staff members were made, and I was released. I felt very comfortable that I was NOT concussed based on the professionalism and expertise I perceived during my visit.

Michael Bitler Do not recommend. Update. 03/27/2024 still a horrendous experience. More like a comedy club. You pay to wait for hours while they eat lunch and cant get scheduling correct. Dont try to call. No. You end up talking to a call center in Miami. Walk in. Yeah, now they want to do teledoc. Well, thats a farse too. Waiting hours now. Walked back in since I cant call. Woops. Theres another emergency... Every time. They cant keep DRs here. The "Office manager" yeah. Its all a joke. Yeah. What can I say. They tanked after the buyout. Call center is frustrating. No callbacks, no answer most of the time. Communication is dismal. Messages left on answering machines from them are incomplete. Identifying as "Clinical Care" as the business name. No clue who they are presently. Told medications in person will be ordered immediately. By the time we get home, pharmacy confirms nothing ordered. Not the first time this has occurred. Says "Walk ins Welcome!" On the door. Yep, nope. No way. Discharged from a hospital?.... No problem! Just make your appointment for a few weeks out. No, not the 3 days or less the hospital recommends. Yeah, make that 5 weeks now I am finally getting an appointment. Bacterial infection!? They take care of those too! 3 weeks after the fact. Whats the point of a DR office when you cant have your illnesses and concerns addressed in a timely fashion? Seven years my family and I have been going here. Treated like a new patient each time we show up with the large turnover of staff they have here. My son was denied service due to him turning 18. He has to be a new client and they are full I was told. We came in after his 18th as they had scheduled us to. Lets not forget the hurry up and wait policy. Show up early, wait hours to be seen. Show up on time, they reschedule you another day. Show up late, yeah. Dont do that. They try to schedule you out past 6-8 weeks or make you wait an additional hour. Then tell you the DR is gone for the day and reschedule you anyways. Do not recommend.

Cameron Woodworth The most DISRESPECTFUL people sitting behind the desk here. They don’t want to do their job and over talk you. They have no clue what’s going on and try to make the patients do their jobs. They are lazy and rude. I’m filing a complaint with the board of health, this entire office needs an overhaul. I was speaking and she literally muted me and ignored me then came back talking about something completely different.

Sarah Bergfeld They r very friendly kind nice. But wish little more English!The staff should be able to speak English it was a simple question now have to wait for them to call back. So now waiting on Luna to call back. All she could say was we r very busy Luna call u back. So annoyed right now. Some English courses for Employees would be great!

Ashley Mccullough I had an appointment at 3pm. I sat in a room for 1 hour and nobody ever came in to see me. When I made the appointment I stated I had another appointment at 4:30pm so I had to leave by 4pm. I wouldn’t recommend going there because what’s the point in making an appointment if your not gonna be seen in a reasonable time frame. VERY DISAPPOINTED. It wasn’t even a lot of patients there for appointments.

Airin Miguel OMG!!!! Trying to make an appt for my daughter it took me an ENTIRE week just waiting on someone to “call me back” INSANE!!!!! The girls are nice. However, nothing is getting done regarding my daughters appt. It’s sad to see how much the office have changed. Normally It doesn’t really bother me, but now is my daughters health you’re playing with. Dr Figueroa, we love you so much. But unfortunately, we have to go find something better. Good luck

Michele Carlson Worst experience ever. They sent my bills to a non existing mailing address then when it was returned sent my bill to collections. Now telling me I have to contact a post office to fix my incorrect address that I do not know what it is still. Also the customer service rep hung up on me when I was asking to speak to a manager. Horrible service. Telling me I am under collections until the VA pays the claim then they can clear my account and remove from collections. REALLY???? They used incorrect information and I am the one that is at fault. Maybe I should sue!!!! Could not post until I placed a star for them what a scam. BEWARE VETERANS they do not like us!!!!!

Ankit Gupta Organized Loot: Why these ER doctors are not part of largest insurance company CIGNA. After paying ER bill, now they are sending ER physician bill which is unethical as all the Dr are out of network?

Daniel Sexton While checking my credit through Credit Karma, I noticed a collection listed my credit report from (G.E.P.) Gladden Emergency Physicians. It was a 2 yr. old charge off. I HAD AETNA HEALTH INSURANCE DURING THIS TIME PERIOD. I have NEVER met any doctor or anyone who introduced themselves as being from G.E.P. I have NEVER received a bill, late notice, or any correspondence from G.E.P. I am now having to deal with a negative mark on my Credit file. I WARN YOU.....DO NOT USE G.E.P. YOU WILL BE AT RISK IN THE FUTURE.

Kourtnei Dalton I cannot recommend this childrens hospital enough! Every single time weve needed their services, from simple emergency room visits to full surgeries and inpatient stays, the care and attention they provide have been exceptional. The staff is not only highly skilled and knowledgeable but also incredibly compassionate and kind, making the experience as smooth and comfortable as possible for both the children and their families. Trusting your childs health and well-being with this hospital is truly a blessing, and I am grateful for the outstanding service they consistently deliver.

Phyrom Huy Who really wants to go to this hospital? sally smith seems to want to destroy all families that go there. Its in the name.

J B No hope here. It’s in your best interest to NOT take your child here.

Michael Thorburn Dr Sally Smith is horrible. Do not take your child to All Children’s or any hospital in Pinellas County. Go to Hillsborough if you can.

Christopher Gutierrez The worst hospital on the planet, do not ever bring your child here, ever! You will lose your rights. They are liars and only in it for the money. The cause kids to become traumatized and destroy parents.

Todd Freund I recently was diagnosed with pneumonia. This care facility did not give me the correct medication and I ended up in the Hospital. If that is not bad enough! they then sent me to collection without attempting to call me after mailing my bills to the wrong address!! I paid the collection company but was confused as to why my insurance company paid over 27000. in hospital bill but did not pay Pinellas Primary Care? I called the office and spoke to Michelle the office manager. She did not want to hear anything that I had to say and was very rude. I spend over 80000. per year for myself and all of my employees health insurance and she talked to me like I am some kind of dead beat. I just cant understand why people like that can keep there jobs or even stay in business. Todd

Tracey Fischell Dr Bhasvar was very professional, competent and caring and the only reason I initially stayed with this medical practice. Otherwise I have nothing positive to say. I was assigned to a new Dr who refused to refill my daily meds without seeing me first... but they had no timely appointments available, and didnt care I would run out of medicine. However whenever I go there the waiting room is empty and the staff dont seem busy!! The staff member I spoke with regarding my medicine refills was totally incompetent, argumentative, rude, unprofessional and repeatedly hung up on me. I had to go to a Walk-in Clinic to get a temporary medicine refill, and change medical practices. This is the most uncaring and unprofessional medical practice I have ever been to. STAY AWAY!!!!

Doland Stephanie “SCarmen” At the beginning of this year my insurance was changed to HMO and Pinellas Primary Care was to be my Primary Care Provider. Unfortunately I have had 4 ailments since then. Each time I try to schedule an appointment they are booked over a month out. I dont know how they have the volume of patients it takes to be that far booked. I am sick now and I am told I have to wait until end of June? By then I will have suffered and hopefully been better if not worse. This is absurd. When I asked when the next earliest appointment, the receptionist told me she couldnt give me a date. Are you kidding me? She cant even schedule me. I also asked if being booked over a month out is typical they she said yes and recommended me finding another doctor. They are not helping their patients they are enabling them to get worse and allowing whatever aliment to thrive. I will be putting in multiple complaints. STAY AWAY FROM THIS UNPROFESSIONAL PLACE!

Jen Loyal Made an appointment and had to reschedule because of work. They told me they would reschedule for Monday. I showed up and they said they meant the Monday a month out! I thought they meant the following Monday! They didn’t say the date, nor did I get a new email with a date. Missed work and used my pto.

The Real Mook Scoop! Ive never been so disrespected or disregarded in my entire life!! The office manager Michelle was absolutely rude and an racist in every single sense of the word!!! After making a phone call this morning 6/2/2016 to request and x-ray referral be sent to Saint Anthonys Hospital by my pcp doctor kerry Cadogan". I was told by the young lady that answered the phone she would give the information I provided to her to the doctor as soon as she arrived. At 2:30 I called back pondering why I have yet to receive a phone call from either the secretary or the doctor herself , I notice that the person on the other end was not the person I spoke to earlier.. I said to her the young lady that I spoke to earlier has all the information. Her attitude changed immediately and she demanded that I tell her what was wrong with me,! As I begin to explain my situation she abruptly hung the phone up!!! Well not noticing that she had disconnected I continued with my story when I noticed that the phone was disconnected I was shocked. So I call back and ask did you hang up purposely she responded we here in this office dont have time for your attitude. I said excuse me but I dont have an attitude I think you may have a problem with your personnel I am the patient... But before I could finish she hung the phone up again!!! Now I do have an attitude! .. and Im going to my doctors office to find out what the problem is , after arriving at the doctors office and speaking to the young lady behind the glass she informed me that dr. Cadogan would not be in until the next day. Ive them asked for the office manager I wanted to ask her why she hung the phone up on me without hearing my medical need? Her attitude and facial expressions made me feel puzzled and disappointed , so I asked her is this how you handle yourself professionally on a daily basis? I went on to ask her for her credentials so I can file a claim. Her answer to me was if you dont like it Im going to call security!!! "Typical racist answer. (If you dont like the way I speak to you..go to jail)" I responded are you kidding me I look to the young lady in the window and ask is there anyway that you can just have dr. CADOGAN write the referral when shes available and Ill just go to the hospital. The manager leaned into our conversation and told me that I was being discharged from that facility if I didnt like it I could file a complaint in 30 days. I choose to go straight to the Florida Board and ask how does a woman with her disposition end up in a job with that position? I will be diligent in finding the answers to why office manager Michelle... is in the position she is and what will it take to have her discharged from that position, this Facebook post is just the beginning,, this woman is rude, she displayed a racial overtones and should be FIRED! immediately I only wish there was a zero star rating

Tommie T THIS USE TO BE ONE OF MY FAV HOSPIATLS TO COME IF I NEEDED URGENT CARE..BUT NOW THIS IS MORE OF A RUSHED SERVICE...DR DONT CARE ONLY SEEMED TO BE MONEY HUNGRY AND WORRIED ABOUT INSURANCE INSTEAD OF WHAT BROUGHT YOU TO ER..LACK OF EMPATHY AND MISDIAGNOS AT THIS HOSPITAL AS A WHOLE! I ENDED UP GOING TO MORTAN PLANT WHICH IS THE BEST THING I COULDVE DID!

Robert Bradley It’s easy to understand why Bayside Emergency Physicians has a low rating of 1.5 stars. I had a straightforward emergency room visit at St. Anthony’s in September 2023. However, 16 months later, I discovered that Bayside failed to submit my insurance claim to Blue Cross Blue Shield on time. After months of trying to resolve the issue through phone calls, I learned that Blue Cross denied the claim because Baysides third-party billing professionals in the Philippines filed it too late. I only learned about the denied claim when it negatively impacted my credit report. Unfortunately, I have been unable to repair my credit, and the billing account supervisor at Bayside has not followed up as promised. During my fourth call today, the Bayside Emergency Physicians billing department informed me they would request payment from Blue Cross for this bill. Their lack of follow-up and interest in my situation has harmed me, but it has also affected their company, which will not get paid due to their poor business practices.

Doug Jones Last July I visited the SAH ER due to a tendon injury, got an x-ray saw a physicians assistant for less than 10 minutes. All they did to help was get me a sling and tell me to ice it. I paid my $1500 ER months ago and to my surprise I just received another $1350 from these crooks. nope. You all should be ashamed of yourselves. Greedy health care providers and insurance companies are killing people in the country.

kathleen smith I went there with a really bad sore throat. Overall the experience was good. I was seen initially by an ER doctor and because there were nothing was life threatening he passed me off to a PA. I had to wait for an hour - to have a COVID test and a throat culture. Wait time when there was nobody there was the only bad thing about my experience.

Austin Koring Terrible billing experience. Called multiple times no response since they didn’t properly get my insurance information. Wouldn’t rather die then go through the process again if it meant getting care from one of their providers.

vin frantz Have had good experiences in the past with the docs in this practice...the mid level practitioners seem ok as well. However.... Jennifer....who Ive been stuck with twice shouldnt be working with the public. To be blunt her attitude, and general personality....suck. One bad experience I can write off to a bad day. Two, not so much.
