Dr. Carlos E. Maas, MD, Punta Gorda FL

Dr Maas saved my life 5 years ago. He is so professional and personable. He truly cares about you as a person.

My mother was a patient of Dr. Maas and made every appt except for the overnight sleep study. It was expressed and noted that she has agoraphobia due to the severity of her scarring from being burned and previous traumas. He said they would accommodate her if she had difficulty making the sleep study appointments. I called twice that she would not make the sleep study appointment because of her issue. They called back and assured me to try once more and that they would see about having her study another way. Well, the third time was not it. I called them and requested if they could do an in-home sleep study- which she meets the criteria for! How did they respond? Instead of calling me back to prescribe it, they mailed a letter firing her as a patient!
I know they make more money with in-house sleep studies from the insurance companies than have the in-home one order! He is greedy, his staff is rude, and they genuinely do not care about the mental anxiety issues that patients can have, especially those who have had severe trauma in the past! I do not recommend them at all, and I have notified all involved that he did not care to attempt to meet my mother's medical needs or accommodate her disabilities! What they did was medical discrimination and negligence and a direct violation of his Hippocratic oath! Medical discrimination is a federal offense, and the ADA has been formally notified!
