My work had provided me with dental insurance so I went to Dr. Fahey and Dr. Petrisko at Sunrise Intracoastal Dental for a cleaning and x-rays. I was 99% sure that I shouldn't be charged a co-pay, but when the front desk lady told me I owed $50 then explained why, I paid it. I went home and called my insurance and they verified that I shouldn't have been charged and that the dentist needs to refund me. I called the dentist and the lady told me that my insurance would refund me ? so after going back and forth it took a month and half to get my $50 check. The lady kept telling me that the dentist has to sign the check so I finally just went there and I hear the lady whispering in the back to the dentist and finally she came out with my check (that was dated that same day I came to pick it up). Oh and by the way, you feel like you're in a third world country when you walk inside the building-totally disgusting!!
This is not the first time that I've heard them charging a co-pay when they shouldn't have (even a $5 one-it all adds up in the end and goes straight into those pockets of theirs). DO NOT GO THERE!!!!!
out of 5 stars
