      Complaint Type:
      Billing Issues
      Status:
      Resolved
      I am filing a complaint because Forefront Dermatology has been sending me bills every month for a charge I paid five months ago and I want them to stop sending me bills.On 10/26/23, I incurred a charge of $136.61 at my dermatologist's office, Lakeside Dermatology, in *********, **, which had recently become part of Forefront Dermatology. On 11/21/23 I paid my bill of $136.61 in person at the ********* office and received a receipt. At the end of November 2023, I received another bill for the same amount but ignored it, figuring the billing office had not yet updated their system with recent payments. In December 2023, I received the same bill and replied by mail with the statement, my credit card receipt, and my credit card statement showing I had already paid it. I received the same bill again in January 2024 and replied by mail with the statement, another copy of my receipt, and a strongly worded note stating I had already paid the bill.I received the same bill again in February 2024, and this time I called the billing office on 2/20/24, explained the situation, and was told by their representative (I do not have her name) that they had indeed received my payment, but it was billed to the wrong service (I'm not sure what this means) and I could disregard the bill.In March 2024, I received the same bill again and I wrote an email to Forefront Dermatology CEO, ***********************, complaining about this issue and asking that his company stop sending me bills. As of 4/15/2024, I have not received a reply.Today, 4/15/2024, I received yet another bill for the same $136.61. I want these bills to stop. I am worried that they will send a debt collector after me and damage my credit rating. I shouldn't have to make additional phone calls, mail their bills back to them with more copies of receipts that they already have, or email other company executives.

      I saw Dr. ******* a few months ago for a bug bite and she put me on *********** which made me itch all over and saw my hair falling out.As soon as I got off the ************ itch went away.I got a bug bite wire a black bullseye in the middle and went in to see her today since urgent care said I need a dermatologist to look at it.***************** did not even know what the bite was,really said.Then tried to tell me I need to get on meds for an itch which I did not have ,the *********** she put me on was causing the itch,and because she did not know what the bite was suggesting I self inflicted my self.***************** is not very professional and for her to tell me I self inflicted myself and if I do not get treatment for a itch that I did not have she would not see me anymore,and I told her I am just here for you to identify the bite.And she went off about the itch that I do not have.And I was going to suggest not to see her anymore ,but ***************************** beat me to the punch.I need to get my attorney on her for deflemation of charcter.She definitely does not need to be a dermatologist if she can't recognize a bug bite. I Feel she should not get paid for today's visit,*********************************************** does not listen to the paient,if she does not know what is going on she makes it up.Really thinking about getting my mother's attorney. UT then do I really want to lower myself to her level.Retire because you definitely do not know what you are doing I did knot appreciate her not listening to what I came there fore,she just made up what she wanted due to the fact she could not describe the bug bite.I have been with my primary for over 20 yrs.And never been treated like dirt.
