Midwest Minor Medical- 84th & Q

My throat was swollen and I was in deep pain, so went to Midwest. I filled out the insurance and credit card papers. Went to see the doctor and all he did was look up the symptoms and gave me no answer. I asked for something for the pain and he told me that's like killi...ng a mosquito with a hammer so all he gave me was amoxicillin an antibiotic. A month later my credit card was charged and did not receive a bill or receipt and nothing from the insurance company, I called and they said it takes a while for the insurance company and to call a number for the receipt. It cost me 301.00 for him to look it up on the computer and gave me nothing. Going to emergency next time, they would have gave me something for the pain. Read More

I went here for a case of acute gastroenteritis. The staff, including the receptionist, the nurse, and the physician were unprofessional, rude, and incompetent. The doctor hardly even acknowledged my presence during the 4 minutes he was in the room with me. He absently ...mindedly prescribed an antibiotic. He then recommended I take the name brand of Imodium rather than the generic brand. His rational for this was that the name brand had “something” in it which the generic did not. However, he didn’t know what that was. Sorry, doc, anyone can read a label, except you. They are the same thing. He then encouraged me to drink 7-Up… Sorry, how is drinking high fructose corn syrup going to make me feel better? This physician is really behind in keeping up on his education. How antiquated. \r\n\r\nThen we get to the fun part: the billing. The doctor does not understand how ICD-9 codes work (they are the codes sent to you insurance so they know what they are paying for). He, apparently, just chose a random code and billed my insurance agency for it. He chose a code for a preexisting condition. My condition is not even vaguely preexisting; it is acute. Now I am having to deal with the insurance company, trying to get them to pay for my visit because MMM refuses to change the code and bill for my actual diagnosis. I find it deplorable that I am having to spend my time and efforts to get my insurance company to pay for a charge that was incorrectly billed by a physician who requires education on how to bill correctly. \r\n\r\nTL:DR: Doctor has not received any medical education since 1908. He also doesn’t understand how to bill insurance and charges people randomly for things for which they were not seen. This leads to people having to pay out of pocket when insurance would cover what they actually saw the doctor for. Read More

Love Dr. P. Graham, she's the best! Thanks to her and the staff, I am recovering well from the worst case of strep throat I've ever had. She gave me a shot for the pain and switched me to oral antibiotics when it was clear penicillin wasn't working for me. Very caring and professional staff.

I will never go to Midwest Minor Medical again. Does JOSEPH K COSTELLO have MD behind his name. I went to him over Labor Day weekend end due to my regular doctor being closed on Monday and I work out of town for two weeks on the two weeks off. I went in for insomnia ...to get a couple weeks of sleeping pills. I realize they have to to their job when prescribing a controlled substance. They called my pharmacist and it was 2010 since I had last received a controlled drug. He then proceeded to check my heart and told me I had a murmur. He did a EKG and said that I had a irregular heartbeat. Advised me NOT to do my two week hitch, did not prescribe me any sleeping pills and told me to go to my regular doctor on Tuesday because of my heart condition. I could not afford to take any time off of work, so I scheduled an appointment with my regular doctor when I got back from my two week hitch. Low and behold, I DID NOT HAVE A MURMUR, MY EKG WAS REGULAR AND I HAD NO HEART PROBLEMS!! HMMM Read More

I will never go here againI took my daughter in with high temp and sore throat and pain all over. We filled out the paper work with all the insurance information and personal information. She then said I have one more sheet. It was basically a form with your credit or d...ebit card information and consent for them to run payment in. There was no where to fill in an amount or anything. They wanted you to write the numbers out and sign it. I told her I was not comfortable leaving that information written out for any employee to see. There was encryption of the last 4 numbers just the whole number. She said it is required to see the doctor. I said I will pay cash for the visit and let the insurance re-imburse me. She said we can not do that. We have to have credit debit or checking account information on file. I again said how much is the office visit I will pay cash. She said I am sorry but in order to see the doctor you have to give us your information. I was floored, See next review Read More
