I love the Doctor and the staff is pleasant to deal with but the front desk guy is kind of a nazi!!! I understand if you miss an appointment by just not showing up that they charge you... I showed up late because I honestly thought my appointment was at 3:00pm not 1:15pm, I actually showed up. Its not like i dismissed it and didnt have the courtesy to call. i was charged $30 and now i hear its gone up to $50??? This policy needs to leave room for human error... like a three strike program or even a one time grace period... what if I were in a car accident on the way there, or stopped to save a child from danger, I mean they didnt even ask... i said im here for my appointment and the guy said "no... your appointment was at 1:15 and you now owe $30... Gees!!!

I was referred to Dr.Otero by my local doctor for a thyroid issue I have been having for years. Finally, I thought, I was going to get help for this problem. Little did I know that I was about to face an even bigger problem and fight another battle by the very people who were suppose to help me.

First of all getting the appointment in the first place took some time that consisted of a lot of back and forth calls from my local doctor to Dr.Otero, and then from my doctor to me (because Otero's office wouldn't initially make an appointment), from me to Dr.Otero, from Dr.Otero to me etc.

When I was finally able to land a date and time, I was given the wrong address to Otero's office. After showing up to the address given and spending an hour looking for the location I was told and asking four different people for direction, my husband and I realized that we were not only at the wrong address we were in the wrong city!

After calling the Dr.'s office I asked the lady who had scheduled me if the fee could be waved for missing the appointment since I was there at the address that I was given, ready for the appointment I was given.

Not only did she refuse to help me she passed me off to the office manager who was not willing to listen to anything I had to say from the beginning of our 'conversation'. All he seemed to want to do was laugh at me, even going so low as making fun of the city I live in, a city I love.

I hung up the phone shaken and upset and wondering how a "professional" could treat not only a patient but another human being the way he did.

The lack of patient care by everyone at this office is astonishing. Not only did my husband and I spend an hour running around on a wild goose chase, talking to numerous people for directions to a place that was non existent in this city simply because of a mistake made. I was blamed for that mistake, laughed at and charged.

If this is the kind of service given by Otero herself, well, frankly I am glad I didn't step foot in that building. It is off to Duke for me and I am more then happy to drive the extra hour each way to get there because I know I will be treated the way we all deserve to be treated, with respect! I recommend you all do the same.
