Asaria, Sheemain D, Md - Ob & Gyn Specialists Pa

by far the worst patient care by front desk, billing, and back staff. I have never been to a place with worse staff and manners more

I have also been a patient at this practice for about 6 years and never had a problem until recently. However, my experience with the staff was very limited to my P.A. that I saw once a year. Once I became pregnant and had more frequent office visits I quickly realized what a mess this practice is. My first prenatal visit with my normal P.A. was fine. She requested I come back at the end of the week for my first ultrasound even though I was very early (we thought I was 6 weeks, but I was actually only 5). My P.A. wasn't available for the ultrasound so I saw Dr. Carducci for the first time. The ultrasound tech was unable to see a fetal pole or heartbeat, but saw the gestational sac and the yolk sac. When the doctor came in to speak with us she sat down and immediately told me I should be prepared to miscarry! Again, I've never met this doctor. No introduction or anything. She went on to tell me that it's just not normal not to see at heartbeat at 6 weeks and then wrote me a prescription for valium because she said when I miscarried it would be painful and she didn't want me to have to go to the ER because they couldn't do anything for me!! My husband and I were in total shock. We were trying to ask her questions and see if the fact my ovulation was not ""normal"" could have any impact on the ultrasound, as I may not actually be 6 weeks like the sac measured. She was not concerned with our questions, but instead kept bringing up her own miscarriages! She told me she'd bring me back in a week and if they still couldn't detect a heartbeat she'd want to schedule me for a D&C. It was the next day, after the shock had worn off a little bit, that I started to really become upset about how this news was presented to us. To make a long story short I went back the next week and sure enough, we had a heartbeat and a strong fetal pole...and they realized how off their estimations were, as my due date changed by 15 days. I am in the process of changing practices now. I am horrified doctors would allow this kind of behavior. more

I was a patient for 7 years. I hated going to the Winter Park office because it was always a half of a day lost. Even though I lived downtown, I drove to the Oviedo office. When I was pregnant, I just happened to be on a COBRA insurance plan. My initial visit I was told to pay $800 and insurance would reimburse me (this was wrong info). So I paid. I ended up moving after my initial visit. It has been months and months of not only me going back and forth with their billing office, but also United Healthcare. My insurance company is even fed up with them! They hid charges so that they could double bill, increased charges, and changed billing codes from the services that I actually had done. Needless to say my daughter was 1 month old last week and I'm still trying to get the remaining hundreds they owe me. more

I wouldn't recomend this place to anyone. The billing department and the office staff are the rudest people that I had ever met. For 45 minutes they insisted that I pay over $300 dollars before I see the doctor, even my insurance manager called them and ask them to resubmit the bill that will be covered. No, until I payed they would not consider to talk about it even they made that mistake by wrong coding and they wouldn't change it. The worst is that the office manager came to threaten that if I don't pay in 5 minutes I should leave. So they needed my money and I payed, but I will never come back there and wouldn't recomend this practice to anyone. more

The entire staff is wonderful, they know you by name as soon as you arrive. Always got a call back within hours after leaving a message. Have been through three pregnancies with Dr. Lazar who is absolutely the best in Orlando along with his wonderful assistant Evelyn. I would highly recommend going here. more

lazar is a heartless doctor, if this is your 1st child chances are you willhave a lot of questions, but he is not the guy to go to. he called my pregnancy a miscarriage and scheduled me for a procedure only to find out that a week later when i went back there was a heart beat and i delivered a healty son. there was no apology from him, he didnt even rememeber me during my next visit, \r he scheduled my c-section without bothering to check my due date and the day before sugery said oops!!! its too early we will need to reschedule it for next week. extremely impersonal. i dont know how a doctor like him could go so far in his career. more

My experience was totaly different than some of the reader i read. I WOULD NOT recommend this practise to even my worst enemy. The wait is always over 40 minutes. Dr. Lazar is suppose to be the best but all he cares about is being in and out of seeing the patients. this was my 1st baby and teh doctor mis diagnosed it as being an aborted child, i was scheduled to go in for the removal of the fetus when they checked agian and there was a heart beat. i now have a healty 1 year son. Worst is there was never a word of apology infact he didnt even rememebr me when i went back on my next visit. This practise is extremly impoersonal. NO ONE WILL RETURN your calls, no matter what the teh emergency. i left 7-8 messages at a time within 24-48 hours but no one would ever call me back. Go to anyone else but dont have your baby here. I was scheduled for a c-section and teh day before i go and meet the doctor- thats when he relalized that ""they had mis calculated"" my due date and that i wasnt due for anotehr 2 weeks. All these month/ weeks that i had been going to see the same doctor he hadnt bothered reading the top of my chart to see that the due date had changed. the doctors are extremly careless, heartless and have horrible bed side manners. Again go to this place only if there are no other Ob gyns alive. more

When you call their office, it is impossible to get a human being on the phone. Finally I got someone, and asked if a prescription would be faxed for me. They said yes. The drugstore never got the fax. I called back, and because it was the weekend (but really Friday at 4 o'clock) they said there was nothing they could do. I emailed them saying how disappointed I was in the service, and no one ever called or emailed me back. They could not care less about their patients. If you want to be treated like a human being DO NOT GO HERE. Cons: Treat their patients like a number more
