Don’t do it to yourself. I now have more problems than I had when I went in! It is costly and sad because my treatment was going very well — until Dr. Lingerfelt performed a test on me that I have now found out was done improperly. And, since she lied in her notes about what actually happened, the insurance company isn’t paying. Wow. I hope that doesn’t happen to anyone else! It is miserable to go through each day in this pain.
But it isn’t fair to only mention Dr. Lingerfelt. This weekend, in an email from the owner, I found out that Dr. Clark also kept notes that indicated I was recovered but in fact I was limping and couldn’t breathe when she discharged me! (I wasn’t limping and I could breathe fine when I came to the center for treatment months earlier.) Dr. Clark also refused to give me treatment that was prescribed by my physiatrist to help the situation, a treatment he was emphatic about. Another physical therapist has since explained to me the connection between this part of the back and all of my problems, and why it is key to my recovery. So, now I know that neither one had the knowledge or experience to know what treatment I needed. And, they point-​blank disregarded the professional who did! The consequences to me have been severe.
It took me a while to decide to write this. At first I believed it was the insurance company’s fault for sticking me. But after a Dept of Health reviewer wrote to me of what Dr. Lingerfelt had put in her notes, I realized it was because they didn’t know what actually happened. I am writing this review because if there had been reviews on Unilocal,I would have gone somewhere else and might not be in this situation, where months later I am still paying, and still unable to function normally.
