"My only disappointment is that I was not told ahead of time that my colonoscopy would not be coded as screening. It was not until I received a $2,000 plus bill that I found out his office had coded it so that insurance would not cover it."
— Healthgrades review of Dr. Timothy Shiben"Spoke over me the whole time, said my symptoms were “just anxiety” and refused to do any testing besides a colonoscopy which I had already had. Clearly is burnt out and needs to retire."
