If you're not willing to give your Social Security number then get ready for a battle with Global Clinic. I have Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO insurance with group and member ID numbers. Apparently these are not enough for Global Clinic.



At my initial visit, I filled out the Global Clinic information sheet and purposely omitted listing Social Security number. The receptionist took the information and I have started my treatment. My physical therapy was scheduled to last four weeks but it abruptly ended after only two.



With each visit, Global Clinic became increasingly aggressive about obtaining my Social Security number. Initially, it was only a request or reminder. Soon, it became a demand. When the pressure became uncomfortable, I have contacted Blue Cross Blue Shield to find out if the Social Security number was needed to file a claim. According to BCBS, Social Security number is NOT required to file and process a claim. So, what is the reason for Global Clinic to take Social Security numbers and keep them in their files? They definitely don't need it to get their money from the insurance. With ID theft rampant in the US, thieves are breaking into bank, store, and military computers. Is Global Clinic able to protect our personal information better than a bank?



My therapy continued only for two weeks. Today, I was told to set up an appointment and speak with Clinic Director, if I wished to continue with my treatment. What would the Clinic Director do for me that Office Manager was not able to? Due to my unwillingness to compromise own personal financial information I was not able to continue my physical therapy at Global Clinic.



I am furious with Global Clinic for allowing treatment even after refusal to give up the Social Security number. After only two weeks of therapy and frequent arguments about disclosing personal financial information, I feel worse than before. I absolutely will not recommend Global Clinic to anyone.

I would recommend Global Pain & Spine Clinic to anyone who has any back problems or pain. I could not stand or sit in October... I was in so much pain. The pain was gone only after a couple of visits... I was shocked how good they are. I am still going for the therapy to make sure my back problems do not come back. Definitely I would recommend Global Pain & Spine Clinic as they have great therapists with a lot of experience & wonderful customer service!

Stay away from this place!!!!!!

I went there with a lower back pain. After my second visit not only my back was still hurting but also I started feeling numbness in my right leg and arm. The methods which they use at global are not safe and can really hurt you. If you want my advice please go to an orthopedist and get some real help.
