Just received email that I have an appointment scheduled. After reading all the negative reviews I am DEFINITELY HAVING SECOND THOUGHTS! I worked in a medical office for 15 years. We never treated our patients this way!

Fantastic staff and service. Everything ran smoothly and I was told exactly what was going to happen and when. The Dr. spent time with me explaining the results of my pulmonary tests. High recommend.

I have been seeing Dr. Hopkins for a few years and I also see LaDeana. I love everyone at the Omaha office. They are all kind and Dr. Hopkins and LaDeana are fantastic. I saw a different pulmonologist before Dr. Hopkins and I am so glad I made the switch. He has helped my lungs and breathing tremendously. I would highly recommend Dr. Hopkins to anyone.

I had a sleep study done last month and still haven't been given my results from Dr. Barry. I have called multiple times and have had no luck getting my results. I was ordered the sleep study because I am so fatigued that I have a hard time staying awake whenever I sit for more than 10 mins, this includes behind the wheel, but nobody seems to care if I fall asleep and drive into oncoming traffic. terrible experience. Update, still garbage!

I was finally given the results of my study (they were sent by snail mail , and post marked 4 days before this review was posted, yet the nursing staff said they had no info) and I was told I need to do an in lab study, followed by a nap study. This office sent the wrong orders to the sleep lab, and it took me showing up for my appt a month later before anybody realized the mistake. So now I have to wait YET ANOTHER month to actually get the studies done that I need!

I was referred to this office in July, and it is now nov, and will be dec before the tests are done. when a patient is literally saying they are dozing while driving, that is WAY TOO LONG! Really wishing I had been referred elsewhere.

I've been seeing Dr. Miller here for decades. She has always provided compassionate, thorough, expert care. The staff is so helpful, especially as I live out of town. They are so caring and willing to go the extra mile to explore new avenues of treatment. This all means a lot when you have breathing issues. Highly recommend.

My husband saw Dr. Maslonka back in January and he was wonderful. However, he had a sleep titration test done and it was read by Dr. Fiedler who verbally ordered O2 from AHP! AHP sent the order back to be signed so they could submit it to insurance. This was time sensitive and due to his negligence and not signing an order after 2 1/2 weeks had passed the O2 was denied. We wondered what was taking so long and after calls to AHP, our insurance company, and the office he was told he'd have to repeat the test!

Our insurance company said to have the Dr. call them to get it authorized and they didn't do it! No one ever answers the calls and it takes longer than 24 hours to get a call back. After leaving many voicemails they have managed to call my husband one time only to tell him again he had to repeat the test! Who's paying for this to be repeated and also cover his wages to take more time off work? Because of Dr. Fiedlers Incompetency as a healthcare provider my husbands health could ultimately be effected!
