This review is in reference to a United Healthcare virtual visit on July 3, 2022. I'm a 49 year old male who has suffered through anxiety and sleep related issues. To give a little more background I'd previously spoken with 2 other doctors on June 30 and July 2, also through UHC virtual care. But unlike this experience, those two were 5 stars. I originally called because at the time I was going through severe withdrawal symptoms after having to abruptly stop a sleep/anxiety medicine. I had a scheduled appointment with a new primary care physician on July 8 but I had no idea what to expect from the new doctor, plus I needed some immediate relief from the withdrawal symptoms which were making it almost impossible for me to sleep. The first doctor, William Errico, DO was extremely helpful and prescribed a 30 day supply of .1 mg Clonidine to help me. He was friendly and I immediately felt comfortable with him. On July 2, I spoke with Karen Beers, NP. At this point I hadn't noticed much effect from the Clonidine and was looking to gather a little more input on things. She was very patient and helpful and gave me some good suggestions on natural remedies to help with my issue. The 5-HTP she recommended has worked very well for me. By late evening July 2/early July 3 I noticed the Clonidine was starting to have a positive effect. I was still apprehensive about what to expect from the new doctor and I felt that I could possibly gain some more insight from talking to a third doctor and possibly get a refill on the Clonidine since it was beginning to work for me. Plus I had no idea whether a new pcp would even prescribe it. My mistake was getting Lisa Primiani. From the beginning she projected a cold, unfeeling demeanor and I felt uncomfortable with her. The only good thing about the visit was there was no cost because it was fully covered under my insurance. But in this case I got what I paid for. She tended to use the word "unfortunate" a lot but the truly unfortunate thing was this visit. Well, where do I begin? I clearly stated my issue and my concerns and her first response was that I'd already had 3 previous visits with other doctors (it was only 2 - the first visit with Dr. Errico was accidentally disconnected before it had begun). In essence, this made me feel very uncomfortable. Like I'd already called several times already and why was I wasting her time? This isn't what she stated word for word, but it was clearly the impression that I got. To quote a phrase from my 13 year old daughter, it was a "cringe worthy" moment. It got worse from there. At this point I knew I was wasting my time, but I decided to approach the subject of giving me a Clonidine refill. I stated the reasons for this as I did earlier in this review. Her response was basically if I'd taken the whole bottle already then I had a serious problem. These weren't the exact words but they're nearly identical. My initial reaction was complete shock. I honestly don't have words for it. At the time, this comment kind of reminded me of an old lady with a serious case of dementia who will pretty much blurt out the worst possible thing. I was like, no way, she didn't really say that! Also, if I'd actually taken the whole 30 day supply of Clonidine in 3 days then chances are that I probably wouldn't have been having this conversation in the first place. Another truly cringe worthy moment. Unlike the previous 2 doctors, she offered me nothing. Well, actually she did. She offered me an excuse. She stated that her specialty was not "chronic" issues but rather short-term issues or something to that effect. Well, I'll make it a point the next time that I call a telehealth doctor to tell my body not to have a "chronic" issue but a short-term one instead. One word of advice for this doctor, actually 2 words, smile more. A little friendliness goes a long way. I'd love to see the world of telehealth become a kinder place as exemplified by my visits with the first 2 doctors. Every patient out there deserves nothing less.

Steven D. Kaplan, DMD, 119 West 57th Street, New York, NY


Rating: 5 out of 5.

Dr. Kaplan is an endodontist with many years of experience in the field. Despite his busy day, he disrupted his schedule to treat my emergency root canal infection. He is friendly, humorous, calm, and mindful of making me feel comfortable and pain-free. He works with great assurance and patience. My visits to his office were very positive experiences.

Come down to Big D watch some mavericks, watch some stars, watch some cowboys. Then make appointment with lenka stankova ask any veteran for the butcher and they will point you in the right direction. I bet you 1 cowboy hat and a pair of Texas Boot's our doctor is worse then yours. Just follow the scars you will find here. p.s make sure your insurance is paid in FULL. DONT SAY THE VETERANS DID NOT WARN YOU. Craig T - USMC

kenneth feuer, 9430 Turkey Lake Rd., orlando, FL, 32819

I had to wait for 4 months to see him. Then after being the first patient of the day, I waited 1 hour and 45 minutes for him to see me. Meanwhile, I could hear him making telehealth calls. Prior to going in my room he comments to the nurse “oh here we go”. Then he comes in the room and asks me what I want. He performed an Egd and never fixed my problem, just another finding. Then on my follow up he tells me I can make another appointment for an EGD to address the problem he should have already addressed. He had the nerve to ask me what “google recommends” to fix my medical condition. He then proceeded to ask me why I was being to hostile. I left his office crying. I have never been so disappointed and angry. Don’t waste your time, find a physician that actually knows what he is doing and cares.
