Frustrating Experience – Mount Sinai Only Cares About Money I had surgery at Mount Sinai in September, and between insurance and myself, paid around $120,000. The procedure was fine, but their customer service is terrible. I accidentally selected virtual billing and missed a $95 charge. After six months—with no call—they sent it to collections. When I called, they told me it’s their policy not to contact patients via phone only written. That’s incredibly disappointing especially since I’ve always paid on time. It’s clear they care more about money than people. I won’t be going back.

Staff are lovely but wait times are egregious. Mt. Sinai should be embarrassed by this level of care and the negligence of its patients. I plan on switching doctors as soon as I get home.
