"As per the CT government Covid 19 testing website I was directed to take a covid 19 test in April 2020. The results were under Dr Murphy's office. I confirmed that the test would be covered by the government/ insurance (my insurance details were recorded) at the time of booking the test via telephone with the rep who phoned me. I was later offered an antibody Covid 19 tests again via telephone call from a rep. I confirmed with the phlebotomist drawing the blood that the antibody test was not chargeable to me after I realised that he planned to draw up to 8+ vials of blood (which I found to be unusual and concerning but he said this was now standard and necessary as covid 19 affects organs). He suggested that I should contact the Dr office if I was charged in error. I was billed $1200 approx. My insurance tried to contact the Dr office for over 2 weeks who confirmed the covid 19 test was a 'SUPER COVID-19 test' which apparently tested for additional respiratory illnesses and the flu without my knowledge or apparent consent. And the antibody test was also non standard looking for other illnesses ...hence so many vials of blood. This Dr is not my PCP and I had no choice in them being selected to provide the covid 19 testing service to me. Anyhow the insurance is unable obtain redress from the Dr Office due to the 'coding' of the bill for this superfluous testing / charges and I have left a phonemsg and emailed the office and have not had any response. I will have to make a complaint and escalation to insurance assessors, my next step. JTJ As per the CT government Covid 19 testing website I was directed to take a covid 19 test in April 2020.

"Went for a simple Covid antibody test and without permission the technician withdrew 8 vials of blood with no explanation. The normal test requires only one vial. Plus they never called with results, and only after our badgering and numerous calls did we get a response, from yet another doctor not even in Dr Murphy's practice. Terrible experience"

"After booking an appointment with Dr. Murphy for an annual physical, I was told, only upon my arrival, that Dr. Murphy was not in the office on Wednesdays and I would be seeing his P.A. instead. Although my insurance covers an annual physical at no cost to me, I have spent the past year fighting with the billing department about more than $800 in charges between their office and LabCorp, including a charge for a second office visit simply to receive my lab results. Combined with an apparent incompetence regarding technology, including receiving a text the DAY AFTER my initial appointment that read "It has been a year since your last appointment" (a message I received at least one other time during the year) and NOT receiving mailed communications because my address was input incorrectly (not even close), and no response to emails to the p.a. and the billing department, I CANNOT recommend Dr. Murphy."

Data Transparency and Trust: Understanding WebMD Doctor Listings and Reviews

We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.

All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews. Providers are not able to remove or modify reviews on their own. Reviews can only be removed after an internal review by our customer service team.

We value your input and encourage you to reach out to our support team if you encounter any issues.
