This office preys on patients it obtains from the hospital. My husband broke his hand, was admitted to the ER and Dr. Schaub performed surgery on his hand the next day. THIS OFFICE DOES NOT ACCEPT INSURANCE. Following the initial surgery, I contacted 6 doctors in-network and no one would conduct the follow up care, so we were forced to continue with Dr. Schaub. The billing practices are egregious. After your first follow up appointment, you are taken by two people into a small room and told you MUST sign all of these billing contracts - DO NOT SIGN THEM. I'm an attorney and so my husband told them I had to review them before he would sign them (that and his writing hand was the one that was broken). The office has you sign these forms so that they can charge you fees in excess of the "usual and customary" fees. My husband had two rods in his hand that needed to be removed and we were told that unless we paid the excess charges for the surgery to remove the rods, they would not perform the surgery...mind you, no other doctor will remove the pins, so we are stuck. I've filed a complaint with the AZ Medical Board re the billing practices (which violate ARS 33-1401(w)), the AG's office for extortion and consumer fraud, and I've written a letter to the hospital (Chandler Regional) to let them know how the doctor obtains his patients and abuses his privileges at the hospital.
STAY AWAY! IF YOUR ARE AT THE ER, GET A DIFFERENT DOCTOR!!!!!
