Western Medical Evaluators, ripoff to all employees as well as worker's comp patients Denton, TX Denton Texas

The going "where there is no exit" is a metaphor, not a literal statement and therefore not a "threat". True, you can go wherever you want in America, if you take it literally. However, I didn't mean it literally, and well, honestly don't care to explain it, if you can't figure it out yourself.

You can believe what you want about the rescinded statements, you're going to anyway. I'm sure you have first hand knowledge of whether they exist or not. But again, relying on what you hear is not always the best way to go. Perhaps you should find out how many of the 6 asked for their jobs back, you might be surprised.

And as you stated, you have stated what your thoughts are about the company, and I have as well. Yes, this is America, so open debate is encouraged. Just making sure people see both sides of the story, and as I have stated numerous times, people should believe what they perceive as the truth and then go on their own path, making up their minds with the knowledge that they have.

Well first of all I am not the one stating that the way you feel is wrong or what you know is wrong. I do not understand how stating what I know is affecting my friend's jobs at WME. I have simply stated everything I know from that company when I was working there. Even what I have stated does not mean you will be forced into shutting down the company!! You have stated things you have seen only in the last week and a half, by the way you have put it, it seems like the chat that most of her managers had with her about the way she talked to her employees worked. Second of all I am through with all the back and fourth that we are doing here.

I have clearly stated things about WME and whoever reads this has a mind of their own. Weather they choose to believe you or me or both! I believe I have let go when me and 6 other employees walked out and yeah, 2 people came back but as you stated earlier, I have talked to the other ex-employees and none of them will EVER rescind their statements due to that would be a lie!

Last but not least, please do not threaten anybody about going "to a place that you don't want to be and of which there is no exit." This is America!!

Oh you were very clear with "things I have heard" Those are not things you've SEEN but things you've heard, written by your own word. If now they're things you've seen, then well perhaps you should have been clearer.

Yes, I did work the majority of the time at home, however, that situation has changed, so I am speaking of what I have seen personally.

As far as LOCs, the only reason the company has so many is because SOMEBODY did not do their job. Period. Point in fact. No argument needed. When an LOC comes in, it is to go back out. This was not done, therefore, the sole responsibility and fault lay at the person's feet whose job it was to handle LOCs.

Add to that that LOCs are in no way under the control of the company, they are issued by the state directly related to doctor dictation. So, how WME is involved in the number of LOCs generated, I guess I'm missing your correlation there.

Confidentiality goes with a management position. When you are a manager you are bound by ethics to handle it in a professional manner, both while in the office and while not in the office. Issues such as payroll, AR/AP and expense reimbursement are, at least ethically, things that are confidential. Frankly, I don't know if the managers sign agreements for further confidentiality, but ethical business practice dictates that confidentiality of such matters is a given. Apparently, this is not what you believe.

Any questions I had regarding the company from things that I had heard I questioned the owners about and got what I believe to be truthful answers from the company. After speaking with the company, they have either validated, denied or explained the various things that I have heard and/or were annoyed at to my satisfaction.

As far as what was "blurted out to you", I again point to what I think the truth is, what you say, what they say, and it's somewhere in the middle. I have admitted that at times I was annoyed with the company and spoken to them about it. I have admitted to falling into the "listening to others" and have worked those issues out to my satisfaction. If this bothers you, well, I don't know what to tell you. That, frankly, is not my problem.

The bottom line here is my not being able to understand your inability to let go. You didn't like working for the company? Fine, you're not there any more. Didn't feel like you were paid appropriately? Fine, you get another job that pays you what you feel you're worth. I would think that you could go into any business and ask any employee about their job and every single one of them would have a complaint of some sort, whether it be salary, workload or culture of the company they work for. I do not understand the desire to bad mouth a business that your "friends" work at. I guess it's just me. I tend to look at the big picture and see who is going to be affected by my actions. I, for one, would not do anything to affect, even in an indirect way, the livelihood of my "friends". I do, however, have the ability to step back, look at a situation, ask questions of the parties involved directly, and make my own conclusions.

And as you stated, I have the right by the First Amendment, and this web site, to rebut what is said if I feel the need or desire to. I have the right to state my feelings about the company just as much as you do. I may not feel enough passion to use a million exclamation points to emphasis what I say, but I do have the right to say what I think.

I have stated maybe not clear enough to you but these are not accusations from what has been said to me and the things I have seen. As I stated the racism came straight from one of the owners.

I have seen Dr's contracts and have been told also by the owners how much a Dr has been paid and I have seen the Dr's checks as they are written!

As far as the other "accusations".... Why do you think we have so many LOC's (Letter of Clarifications) I too have read some of those as well as seen how many that company has. It seems to me like you are the only one here that goes by what others say!!!!

Like you said also before you are an independent contractor and you work 98% at home!! I was a manger and everyone in offices know that managers see more than other employees!!

As far as the confidentiallity goes, that is towards patients only!! I sure everyone has heard of the HIPPA act?!!??!! Yeah, that's the only kind of confidentiality thing you have to sign to work there. Seems like someone needs to do there homework!!

I am only voicing my opinion (the 1st amendment) to warn anyone who is thinking about working for this company. As far as owing the Dr's money, it's not private when a contracted Dr sends a nasty email to everyone in the company stating that he is suing Western Medical for all the money owed to him and that Dr's accounts have been paid off!

Also it is made public when Denton County Sherriff's show up at the office to deliver the owners papers to appear in court! And Marie you yourself has said things to me expressing your opinion in a negative way about your work as well as about the owners! As far as laptops and cell phones being paid for that too has been blurted out by the owners too!

If you notice in my rebuttal, I could only speak of what "I" know ... and that is, I have not seen any racism or favoritism. I know from speaking to some of the people that they said themselves they were misled and went off what was told to them, not anything that was said to them directly.

So, show me one area where I stated something "I don't know". The truth of the matter is, at the end of the day, several people have stated that they never heard of or were subject to racism, favoritism or harassment. The fact that you've stated I've been told a lot as well doesn't wash here.

As far as the two statements that you have been harassed with racism as you are neither black or Mexican, that is a bit confusing to me. Sure, you can think, hey that's probably not right to say. Or maybe you can say to yourself, I wonder if I took that out of context? But to say that's harassment or racism towards you, when you are neither nationality spoken about, doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

And what about the other accusations? Nothing to say on that? Nothing to back up your "side of things"?

Your sentence "I have been told alot" is where the problem is. Speak of what you've been subject to, not what you've heard about. Truth has three sides, person #1, person #2 and somewhere in the middle is generally the truth.

If you're going to be led by the nose by what "you've been told" one day you'll find yourself led to a place that you don't want to be and of which there is no exit.

Marie

I can understand that you think you know what you are talking about but I myself have first handledly witnessed the harassment and racism from Dr D

example: It's getting a little dark in here (after 2 black people had been working in the office)

another example: "all Mexicans look alike"

don't tell me that I don't know what I am talking about. I have witnessed everything that I have said in my report fiirst hand! Like you said, you normally don't work in the office so you obviously don't even know the half of it!

As an ex-manager of this company, with all the meetings I have been involved in, I have been told a lot as well as seen a lot! Please do not rebuttal unless you know what you are talking about!

I have been associated with WME since January, 2006, as an independent contractor. For the past couple of months I have spent time in the office, moreso in the past couple of weeks. I will take this in steps. First, with racism and sexual harassment. I have seen none of this and in fact, know that some of the employees who left stating racism and sexual harassment as a reason for leaving have rescinded their statements. They were misled by somebody who is an ex-employee and have since learned that person was lying outright. And before you go, oh that's just because they wanted their job back, ex-employees who remained ex-employees have also rescinded their statements, so their current employment status with WME is not an issue.

As far as men working harder than women. Well, as evidenced as the work that is behind since July-August of this year, in time sensitive, state regulated documents, yes, apparently the men were working harder, since the work that is behind was a woman's responsibility. It was her job and she did NOT do it, and there is ample evidence to that fact.

As far as laptops and cell phones being paid for, do they have proof of that? Do they have a check stub that it's paid by the company? Or is this just more talk without any proof to back it up. As they say, the proof is in the pudding, and if you don't have printed, documented proof, then what you say means less than nothing.

As far as MMI being paid more, hate to burst your bubble and knock your soap box out from under you, but the fees paid are set by both the state and the insurance company and WME has no say in how those fees are set. Upset that doctors get paid more if a patient is at MMI?

Well, then blame the state or blame the insurance companies, WME has nothing to do with that, as you would have learned if you actually did some research to back up your claims against the company.

As far as them not paying their employees enough, well, if the employees aren't happy with their pay, then they're free to 1) not take the position for the pay offered or 2) get another job. I can't think of one company in this world that you can't find employees that don't feel they're being paid what they're worth. Apparently "anonimous" wants to work in eutopia, but good luck finding a place that will "pay what an employee thinks they're worth" rather than what is the pay for that position.

As far as "tremendous amount of work" and "overwhelming" the employees, 1) you can do what you can do in a day, and having worked here recently I have seen nothing but support and help, with everybody pitching in, including upper management, and getting what needs to be done completed. That's what a good group of employees does, pitch in to get the work done and out, and thankfully WME has a great bunch of people working here now, with the bad apples falling off the tree and doing us a favor and leaving before they made an even bigger mess than they left us with.

As far as owing doctors money, etc., I have no knowledge of that and frankly, nobody should have a knowledge of that and if they did, announcing their knowledge, which I'm sure as part of their job is confidential, is highly unprofessional and hopefully their new employer does not trust them with information, since as we see here, you can't trust them to hold confidential information private.

Confidentiality agreements are signed by each employee who is employed by this company and disclosure of this information to anybody, is a direct violation of that confidentiality agreement. Obviously, "anonimous" is again in eutopia thinking they can say what they want and not have repercussions occur. Thankfully, I live in the real world, where actions have consequences and at least I'll have a front row seat to see those consequences take place.
