If there was an option to give 0 stars, I would. I took my 85-year-old mother to Dr. Patels Princeton, WV office for a GI consult. We waited for over 90 minutes prior to my mother being called back to be seen. During the wait, we were called up to the registration desk to be told they needed to reschedule the appointment due to not having a complete list of my mothers medications - which we later found out was sent in by my mothers Primary Care Physician with the referral request. We refused to reschedule. When my mother was finally called back to be seen by the PA, the office staff refused to allow me her daughter medical power of attorney to go back with my mother. I tried to explain that my mother was 85 years old and that I needed to be there during the visit to help answer questions about her medical history, ask questions that my mother might forget to ask, and assist with her medical care. Both the office manager and PA refused saying it was against office policy. When I asked the staff to escalate my concerns to Dr. Patel, both the office manager and the PA refused saying No, we will not. We left the office per my mothers request without my mother being seen due to the staff not allowing me her daughter medical power of attorney to be in the appointment with her. After we left, I called Dr. Patels office per my mothers request to confirm my mother would not be charged for the visit and was hung up on by the Medical Assistant. I am in the medical field and am appalled by the way Dr. Patels PA and staff treats their patients. This office clearly does not have the patients best interest at heart. Very disappointing that Dr. Patel allows his staff to act so unprofessional.
