Gizersky exemplifies a quack and his office is totally indifferent towards patients. Specifically, Gizersky ordered various tests to be performed and notwithstanding multiple messages left with him and the office, lacked the decency to advise me of the results. He also indicated that his staff would schedule appointments for XRays and other tests to be performed outside of his office. This did not occur and I was blown off by the office manager when I called for relevant information abut the appointments.
On check in for my physical Gizersky's office assured me a copay was not due under my BCBS policy. They subsequently billed me it anyway and their reason was that I asked Gizersky a question which was considered an ailment beyond the physical.
I have reported Gizersky, et.al to BCBS for fraud, and the State of Florida for unethical and unprofessional practice. My advice is to visit this schlock "so called" physician at your own risk. I sincerely believe a vet would provide more professional service.
