His name is apparently Joe Doyle now. He called our office wanting to speak to my doctor. When I said my physician was in with patients he said to let the doctor know he was on the line because he was expecting his call. Didn't fall for it and he hung up.
I called the number back and it said the mail box was full.
ENT office received the same call. Doctor's wife answered and he would not reveal any info other than he was a personal friend and was very rude to her even though she told him she was the spouse. She put him on hold for ten minutes and then told him the doctor was still with patients and she would leave him the message. Definitely a fraud.
I work for a surgeon and "Dan" called and asked to speak to my doctor. I told him he was in a room and asked to take a message. He said "Well get him to come to the phone." I told him that I could not interrupt him during a patient exam to come to the phone and asked again to take a message. He said that he was a friend and they had a very personal conversation a few days ago and asked again to get him to phone. I told him no and asked for his phone number and I felt that something weird was going on so I googled the number. Glad I did after seeing all this. What an idiot!
Same thing, but different #(786)464-8788 claimed to be a friend of the docs and returning his call-I knew better-when I told him that the doc had asked me to ask him what this was regarding, he hung up!
Even I, a family physician, got a call from him. He told my receptionist that he was a personal friend of mine. Someone needs to stop this person from making these calls. What does he want anyway? And where does he get our numbers?
