My
experience
with
Shields
MRI
has
so
far
been
horrible.
First,
they
provide
an
estimated
cost
to
me
over
the
phone
that
was
reasonable,
and
I
made
an
appointment.
The
estimate
was
one
cost
for
two
images,
and
the
one
cost
was
based
on
the
fact
that
both
images
would
occur
on
the
same
appoint.
I
was
careful
to
have
them
double-check
that
cost.
The
day
before
the
appointment,
I
received
an
automated
confirmation
call
in
which
the
appointment
time
had
changed,
so
I
called
in
to
check.
They
had
rescheduled
me
with
notice,
creating
two
separate
appointment
times
for
each
image.
I
asked
them
to
triple-check
the
cost,
and
they
reconfirmed
that
it
was
still
accurate.
But
when
I
arrived
for
my
appointment,
they
gave
me
a
different
estimate
that
was
double
--
separate
charges
for
each
image.
I
talked
to
a
supervisor
who
revised
that
estimated
even
higher,
to
triple
the
original
estimate!
I
cancelled
my
appointment,
had
them
put
the
estimates
on
paper,
and
the
supervisor,
Jasmine,
promised
to
follow
up
with
me
on
the
next
busy
day.
She
never
did.
So
I
called
back
in,
and
talked
to
the
financial
department
who
gave
me
a
fourth
estimated
cost
based
on
the
idea
that
my
insurance
company
would
discount
my
second
image
50%.
When
I
asked
her
to
double-check,
you
told
me
she'd
worked
there
10
years,
and
I
should
just
trust
her.
When
I
asked
for
the
estimate
on
paper,
she
said
they
NEVER
put
estimates
on
paper,
even
though
I
had
the
two
from
my
original
appointment
in
my
hand.
So
at
this
time,
I
have
received
4
different
estimates,
been
given
misinformation
at
least
5
times,
had
my
appointment
changed
without
notice,
and
been
promised
follow
ups
that
never
came.
I'm
just
trying
to
determine
if
I
can
afford
to
get
the
MRI's
my
doctor
ordered!
If
you
find
yourself
in
need
of
imaging
without
a
lot
of
hassle
and
issues
--
I
can't
warn
you
against
going
to
Shields
MRI
strongly
enough!
