RevDex.com: I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below. As previously stated, the information was sent by Dr. [redacted] on three separate occasions yet Apria stated it was never received. They never called Dr. [redacted] to advise her they didn't receive the information and waited until one of us called to check on the status. During one phone call, Dr. [redacted] asked for a supervisor who gave her the name of [redacted] and said I would receive a phone call by day's end, it never came. When I called and asked for [redacted] , I was told they didn't know him.There is no way to convince me Apria is a reliable company, particularly dealing with healthcare. As stated Dr. "*" has resubmitted the request to another provider and advised me she will never again deal with Apria. Regards, [redacted]
