Your rights and protections against surprise medical bills

Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice. Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

He's on time so he is respectful of other's time, he explains the situation in plain terms to me (of course when he turns to the stenographer, I have no idea what he's saying, nor do I want to), and he's pleasant (I've been around too many condescending doctors in my life!). Add those qualities up, and it's a 10.

I have been a patient of Dr. Gilbert's since 2014. I was referred to him by three other orthopedic surgeons, that to the man, all wanted to amputate my lower left leg. Dr. Gilbert, pretty much, saved my leg and I think might have saved my life from the staph infection that was eating me alive. The care I have received from Dr. Gilbert, for the past nine years, had been skilled, gifted and superlative. Think he is the best surgeon there is.
