Office Review - Poor Staff Follow Up and Organization

Very poor office organization and staff. I called to schedule a consultation and, being out of state client, asked and was confirmed specific dates so I can fly in for consultation. Not once but twice my consultation was bumped last minute and I had to reschedule all of my travel arrangements. In spite of that unfortunate fact, I still made it to Dr Emer office and had a chance to meet him. The consultation went great. Dr Emer was very friendly, professional and spent a good amount of time going over procedure details. I was excited and was told that the office staff will follow up with some before and after pics to give me an idea of what to expect. I left with a good feeling. A week later, after I didn't receive any emails, I decided to call the office myself. I called, left a message, asking to call me back because I was interested in going forward, but still didn't get a call back. Take it for what it is, but I strongly believe that the front office is a reflection of the doctor himself, his practice, and his follow up. In this case I was disappointed, I felt I was chasing the doctor, and had no follow up from his staff. At this point , I made up my mind and went to an alternative, also well-know plastic surgeon, whose staff made a point to answer my calls and emails, and provide a proper follow up and post-consultation communication.

also, i want you to know how much i care about my patients and my results. this review is really upsetting to me and i wish even if you do not move forward with coming back you email me, tell me who spoke to you when you called and how you were treated. id like to fix this immediately. this is NOT A reflection of me as a surgeon (as you can tell from my results and my other reviews). Best, Dr. Emer.

Dr Emer, I appreciate you replying to my comment and making yourself available. As I mentioned before, I have no doubts in your talent and fantastic results you achieve as a plastic surgeon. It's the administrative and office experience that wasn't at the proper level. I just thought you should know. Thanks again and hope things will be smoother at your new location.

I think things like these are best in a private communication. I am upset when people get to this level and dont feel they can come to me directly. I wish you had, this isnt really something that needs public view in my opinion as you can see from many of my posts my staff cares and loves for my patients --- as do i! I am sorry you personally had a bad experience. And to clarify, I am a dermatologist who did two fellowships in plastic surgical work and specialize in a type of liposuction that nobody else in the country does. I really wish you the best!

I also had the same problem. Great doctor, but it was extremely hard to get an appointment.

I had a very similar experience recently with Dr Emer as well and agree a doctor's staff is a direct reflection of their practice.

Had similar experience too when I complained the patient coordinator called me and told me that she tried calling me 3 times I said I didn't get a message she said she didn't leave.me one. In this day an age most patient coordinators follow up with an email at least and if you call you leave a message. I feel that for the fees dr emer charges it would be easy to get an answer. I know he has great results thar is why I am making an effort to make this comment.
