Affiliated Medical Associates

"Horrible practice. My husband passed away and they refuse to write off his bill."

"Was able to get an appointment relatively quickly but was met with such inhuman treatment when entering office. Office staff was rude and refused to let my husband in without a mask (which he has a medical exemption for). He was having violent hiccups and a hard time breathing and they called the cops on him. Dr Frankel would not even come out and speak to him. Being an infectious disease specialist office for 20 years I guarantee that even the most contagious patients never were asked to wear a mask and especially someone that was clearly having breathing problems. The lack of compassion was beyond disturbing!!!"

"This is a terrific doctor and support staff. They treated me, successfully, for a very bad infection. A pleasure to work with them."

"I had been going to my family Dr for years and had been reasonably happy with the care I had been receiving. Then I began becoming incredibly fatigued and complaining that someone had unplugged my battery. Many blood tests were performed and never any unusual results to explain my fatigue. I was told it was merely due to the stressful activities that I was going through daily accompanied with my age. Then the fevers, inflammation, ( knees swelling to the size of volley balls) rashes and crippling pain set in. With the development of the visible symptoms my case was being looked at a little more seriously. However, after years of referrals leading nowhere but misdiagnosis my condition became very serious. I really became convinced that I was going to continue to deteriorate until it was too late by the time an accurate diagnosis was made. A persistent neighbor and friend finally convinced me to make an appointment with Dr. DeShaw. I thought that it was possible I had lyme disease but the Drs. I had seen either said I was negative or said that a recent test was negative and that there was no need to repeat the test for lyme. A local lyme specialist who had seen me and said I had every symptom of chronic latent lyme had not tested me because I was tested 4 months earlier and the results were negative. His diagnosis was probably the most ridiculous and had I followed his course of treatment I would not be able to write this or possibly not be here at all. I cannot thank Dr. DeShaw and the rest of the team at Affiliated enough for the care I have received. My condition was so grave by the time I was seen by Dr. DeShaw that I actually set record for a while. Although I can truly write a book about my experience with lyme and the co-infections I will try and conclude this review now. I consider myself fortunate to have become a patient of Dr. Deshaw's and have improved considerably. I highly recommend Dr. DeShaw, especially for the hard to diagnose patients."

"I am no longer a patient of this practice due to my insurance changing but I highly recommend this practice. Dr. O’Grady is a wonderful doctor who truly listens to his patients needs and I can not thank him enough for the care I received. If my insurance changes back to one they accept in the future I will definitely be returning!"
