This was a terrible waste of time. I paid $175 and spent 30 min waiting for him for him to be In the room less than 1 minute. And then to tell me he was referring us to another person for another follow up for another $175. No thank you. Honestly disappointed in this experience and practice. Basically a scam.

Dr Wheary was very professional and patient. He examined my hand thoroughly and addressed his concerns of infection in a way I understood.

Not his fault, I presume - But it was a totally unnecessary <3 min. meeting that could have been done by text or phone. Have I done the required pre-op EKG and blood work? Yes. (Could have been confirmed by calling the Diagnostics office). Did I know that the time of the procedure would be determined the day before? Yes. Did I have any questions? No. ...That was the entirety of the "appointment"!!!
I hear "it's required by insurance" way too many times... and whether it is or not, it simply and logically should NOT be.
I'll be curious to see the amount of the charge for that visit.
