If you are seeking a place where you feel safe and respected, I would not recommend the north well breast imaging center. Specifically the 1st floor. The only positive aspect of my visit was the friendly receptionist. I came specifically for an ultrasound, not a mammogram or any other procedure. However, I encountered significant challenges and pushback just to receive the service I was referred for by my doctor.
Throughout the visit, I felt pressured by the female doctor there at the time, despite repeatedly explaining that I was there for one specific procedure. The constant attempts to persuade me into additional treatments left me feeling overwhelmed and upset. At one point, I became so distressed that I began to cry, as I felt my concerns were being disregarded. The doctor continued to present “data” and recommendations without acknowledging my wishes. When I refused she left the room clearly annoyed.
It was disheartening to feel as though my voice was not heard, and I left feeling unprotected and unheard. Whether this is an attempt to maximize insurance reimbursement or simply poor practice, it was an extremely unprofessional experience. I will not be returning to this facility in the future and would rather travel across the bridge to brooklyn for better care. Very sad.
If I could give zero stars, I would.
