Patient Reviews
Feb 04, 2017
I was his patient at Bayou Manor rehab. The experience was fine until I was discharged with prescriptions written for Medicare D erroneously . They were breathing treatments that needed to be written as prescriptions for Medicare part B. The P A, Stephen Mbola refused to correct the prescriptions. I called my primary doctor and his office is trying to work It out for me to get the correct prescriptions.
