Review for Dr. Khilnani

Yes it’s true that most of the time you have to wait, but trust me, Dr. Askins will do his very best what ever it takes to help his patients. Kelly is great, sometimes we just have to give her a second call, but just the same, she will do what it takes to help their patients.

Similar situation as others. Visited ER, was seen by Triage nurse only. Left before seeing doctor. Doctor sends bill for 450$ (for services not rendered) - Insurance covers bill. Doctor sends separate bill for 450$ - threatens to send to collections if not paid.
