1 /5 Cindy ODell: I went to the clinic on Day Street in Riverside. I really like Dr. Blanton and I also like the receptionists at the front desk. They do a great job and are very efficient. Dr. Blanton ordered an MRI for my knee. Its now been a month and this office (utilization dept, apparently) has still not sent over a request for authorization to my insurance company. Ive called no less than 4 times. Its absolutely ridiculous that Ive had to wait a month for them to send this over to my insurance company. At some point very soon, Ill be forced to just find another orthopedic doc. A sad state of affairs, but if you need an MRI or other type of imagining that will require the approval of your insurance company, I highly advise you to go elsewhere. Completely unacceptable!!
