Hospitalists who are Physicians - Georgetown, SC

"I'm a new patient (or WOULD have been). I called to schedule a colonoscopy, and whoever does that was pretty rude. First off, I had to navigate voice mail h*ll, and eventually gave up and left my name and number for them to call back. 24 hours later, no call back. So I called again, braved the voice mail system again, and finally got to a human. I was better off with the voice mail! The lady (missed her name) spoke at high speed like she had better things to do than talk to me, rattled off lots of acronyms and seemed put out when I asked for explanations. Then she insisted I fax things instead of plain old e-mail -- and who has access to a fax these days? The doctor may be the best doctor in the world, but I'll never find out. The gatekeeper guarded the gate far too well. I called a different practice (Phila Gastroenterology Consultants), got to a human quickly, and scheduled a meeting with the doctor for the very next day. Nice."
