Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 To Yash & nbsp; and other skeptics of Dr. Bihari, Dr.B is a doctor in New York where everything costs more. His consultation fee may seem high to many but in his defense it is very reasonable for Manhatten. I have spent much more for 5-20 minute consults(no exageration) and treated with arrogance to boot. I think a 2 hour consult for the amount charged was a bargain.I understand that to many it is an exhorbatant amount , but that is New York City for you. & nbsp; The fact that he will discuss LDN with any doctor who calls him for info and advice shows his intentions are more than honest.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2004 Report Share Posted February 15, 2004 I'm under the impression that Dr. B's rates are pretty much identical to all the other neuros in the NYC area. He just isn't part of any insurance plans. I was told he'll give me the forms that I could file with my insurance company, and Maybe I'd get something back. But I believe my neuro "Charges" the same rates... I just only have to pay $10 each time, the rest is between him and the insurance company. ----- Original Message ----- From: noclue915@... low dose naltrexone Sent: Sunday, February 15, 2004 16:52 Subject: Re: [low dose naltrexone] This is the very reason why....

I have been a patient of another neurologist at Manhatten's NY Hospital/Cornell Medical Center for over 20 years, and Dr. Bihari's fees were exactly the same as this other fellow. I think when I started treatment there way back, the fee was a bit lower, but that didn't last that long. >The fact that he will discuss LDN with any doctor > who calls him for info and advice shows his intentions are more than honest. Agree there as well Take care, Janis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2004 Report Share Posted February 17, 2004 When you consider the amount of time in minutes your regular doctor spends with you and the resultant cost, Dr. Bihari's fee for the time he consults with you is not unreasonable. At least, not to my billfold. In addition, he allegedly consultants with any Doctor for free that will call him.
