Medical examination provider ( ima group)
I am posting this review to warn others about a deeply unsafe and unprofessional experience during a required consultative medical examination and the complete lack of follow-up afterward.
During my examination, I experienced an acute asthma attack, which was visible and supported by respiratory distress, difficulty breathing, and abnormal vital signs. Despite this medical emergency, the examining physician attempted to pressure me to continue the examination instead of pausing or addressing my safety. I made the medically necessary decision to stop the exam out of fear for my health.
What became immediately clear is that this facility is not equipped to safely evaluate or manage patients with asthma or respiratory conditions. The office lacked appropriate medical readiness, failed to respond appropriately to a breathing emergency, and did not provide a safe or supportive environment for a patient in distress.
Rather than de-escalating the situation, the physician’s behavior became unprofessional, dismissive, and intimidating, including aggressive body language and a lack of appropriate medical concern while I was struggling to breathe. This conduct worsened my symptoms and caused unnecessary fear. A medical assistant who took my vital signs personally witnessed my respiratory distress and can corroborate that I was experiencing an asthma attack.
Following this incident, I submitted a formal written complaint requesting:
• reassignment to a different examiner
• preservation and review of my vital signs and examination notes
• confirmation that my medically justified inability to complete the exam would not negatively affect my case
No one contacted me. No one followed up. No one took accountability.
The most troubling part of this experience is not only the unsafe conduct during the exam, but the total silence afterward, as if patients can be spoken to aggressively, treated without respect, and then ignored once concerns are raised.
This company demonstrates a serious lack of professionalism, medical preparedness, and respect for patient safety. Medical providers tasked with evaluating vulnerable individuals have an ethical obligation to act with care and neutrality. Based on my experience, this office failed to meet even basic standards.
I am sharing this publicly because patients deserve transparency, safety, and respect — not intimidation, medical negligence, and silence.
