OB/GYN recommendations in a small town in the Midwest
in Women's Health ·
Hi everyone! I’m also a patient of Dr. Beljo, and honestly, I am beyond frustrated with the whole experience.
Just trying to schedule an appointment takes forever, and then when I actually show up for my scheduled time, I end up sitting there for at least two hours! Their only excuse is always that they have "emergency cases" to deal with.
I had a bit of a situation recently where I tried to drop by... and the nurse was incredibly dismissive toward me, basically telling me it was too crowded and the doctor couldn't see me. Look, I’m not showing up just because I have nothing better to do; I’m there because I actually need medical attention!
If I want to get an ultrasound covered by Medicare, I have to wait months on end... it's just exhausting. If I go to a private clinic, I could probably be seen tomorrow, though I wouldn't get a receipt to file for reimbursement.
And don't even get me started on the communication. When I call to check on my test results, all I get is a vague "Oh, it's fine," yet I can't actually see the report itself—it's like I can't even find where the specific findings are noted on the page. I've been waiting over a month just to see the actual results. It's just terrible.
I have definitely decided it's time to hunt for a new gynecologist because I simply can't deal with this anymore. Does anyone know a good private specialist in a suburb of a major city or maybe somewhere near a small town in the Midwest who is actually reliable?
