I share a bill collector bill I received in August, 2023 from ARC Management Group based out of Kennesaw, GA for a Grandview Neurology / Kyle Hudgens MD medical visit I wasted my time & money getting involved with in 2019. 4 years later, I have tried to contact them about my visit several times and calls are never returned. I am still waiting on proper service for my injury which I DID NOT receive in that visit. Hudgens should have been a MD of adequate skill to assess my condition but simply stated he could not explain my pain. He foolishly recommended I do range of motion exercises (I may have fractured the foramen magnum of my skull - SEE IMAGES). This MD also withheld medical records in a formal request (HIPAA) - I REQUESTED EVERYTHING - BUT what is listed as "Form 6/12" was not given to me.

Neurologist Kyle Hudgens of Grand View Neurology (Affinity Physician Services) (located off highway 280, Birmingham, Alabama). 6/12/19 visit following a referral in May from American Family Care (despite the radiologist there noting no abnormality, a cloudy oval several inches in diameter appeared in standard x-ray images near the basilar area of my skull / my left side). I paid $256 for this Grandview Neurology (Affinity Physician Services LLC) Kyle Hudgens M.D. visit. The doctor engaged in too much irrelevant small talk. When I moved the conversation to my injury he acted offended. I showed him (printed and I gave him a copy of the discs (ie: my medical records)) X-Rays, CT scans and MRI showing the pebble size piece of bone that broke off the underside of my skull and was told no injuries or abnormalities were present. I showed him a CT picture from a just few days earlier showing a CSF Leak, infection and hole in the bottom of my skull (clearly visible head trauma 3 inches+ in diameter) in an MRI, CT and X-Ray image then I was told I had simply strained a neck muscle. He advanced a psychological etiology for a purely physical problem I was carrying / wrote in my records I was exhibiting aberrant behavior (I had a chronic infection in my neck below this injury and was dying at this point). Was given, no medicine, no referral and a misdiagnosis.I illustrate a nagging problem I suffered throughout this ordeal, how I would take my records and images misdiagnosed by one group of doctors / hospitals onto unrelated doctors (for another opinion) and how the previous errors contaminated my hopes at obtaining correct identification and treatment of my injury. The images were useful, in that they correctly showed the issue (serious head trauma) but subsequent doctors would look at the images and asked "well what did THEY say it was?". They would then back the medical opinion of the incorrect doctors, passing another erroneously influenced diagnosis into my records (which would then follow me on to the next group of doctors) and the visit would quickly conclude following this.
Transcript
00:00Alright, so four years following a visit I had as a patient with Grandview Neurology, Dr. Kyle Hudgens, MD, I
00:10am still receiving bills through the mail and I've tried to contact Grandview about this and left my information several
00:21times and my phone calls are never returned.
00:24I received no service in this visit. This doctor was given access to MRI, CTs, and x-rays which showed
00:35I'd broken the underside of my skull.
00:37And I'll give the details of my visit following this introduction. This is what I wrote in my Better Business
00:47Bureau complaint in 2021.
00:51So this bill has moved on to a bill collector, ARC Management Group, based out of Kennesaw, Georgia.
01:00And if this bill collector is viewing this video, I would like for you to understand my experience with this
01:08doctor and let you know who you're collecting money for and for what reasons.
01:13Grandview Neurology and Dr. Kyle Hudgens owe me a correct analysis of my injury that I almost died from when
01:26I visited their location.
01:28And I will not pay another penny to this group until I receive adequate service.
01:35I was a patient, a customer of Kyle Hudgens, MD, and he works for Grandview Neurology.
01:44And this is located off of Highway 280, Birmingham, Alabama.
01:51Alright, so I was referred to Grandview Neurology from a visit I had at America Family Care.
02:01That's AFC, Parkway East, Roebuck, Birmingham, Alabama.
02:07And this was on May 30, 2019.
02:13So I had a standard x-ray done during this visit and it was reviewed as having no injury present.
02:24Alright, so I got the original x-ray images and I'll put them up here.
02:29And despite this diagnosis and pronouncement, yeah, and I was misdiagnosed because something shows up in these pictures.
02:41This was by Anna Maria Echenique, M-D-D-A-B-R, for American Family Care.
02:50And in the x-ray images you can see there is a translucent oval.
02:57And it shows up directly below and covering this area where I had pain that sent me around to many
03:07doctors and emergency room visits between 2018, 2019, going into 2020.
03:182021, this wound is still not healed completely.
03:24Alright, so despite American Family Care saying I had no injury present, they referred me to a neurologist.
03:34So funny how that works, right?
03:36So this visit, it was at Grandview Neurology directly next to Grandview Medical Center off Highway 280, Birmingham.
03:463686 Grandview Parkway, Suite 600.
03:51Alright, so here's my bill from Kyle Hudgens, Affinity Physician Services, LLC.
04:01So there's another name this business operates under.
04:07Yeah, and if you want to see all the details about what happened to me regarding this injury, I've got
04:14over 10 hours video documentation with all my records, etc. scanned in.
04:19And it's on my YouTube channel, My Medical Nightmare.
04:25And please search the appropriate names here and you'll come up with some information on this.
04:33I very slowly recovered from this wound in 2018.
04:38And as I've gained strength, I've been able to go back and chase after these loose ends.
04:47Well, I went around to many doctors, medical professionals around the Birmingham, Alabama area.
04:54I paid a lot of money and I received some standard service.
05:00And I believe I was a victim of patient dumping throughout this thing.
05:05I have no insurance and I have no source of income.
05:10I have no job.
05:11So I was a cash pay patient.
05:16And I believe this singled me out for this kind of treatment in the post-Obamacare world of American health
05:29care.
05:29I paid $256 to be seen by Grandview Neurology Affinity Physician Services LLC Neurologist Kyle Hudgens, MD.
05:39The doctor engaged in too much irrelevant small talk.
05:43When I moved the conversation to my end, he acted offended.
05:48I showed him, printed, and I gave him copies of the discs, CD-ROMs, with my medical records and images.
06:01That's x-ray, CT scans, and MRIs.
06:05Showing the pebble-sized piece of bone that broke off the underside of my skull.
06:11And I was told no injuries or abnormalities were present.
06:15I showed him a CT picture from a few days earlier showing a CSF leak, infection, hole in the bottom
06:26of my skull,
06:27clearly visible head trauma, 3 inches plus, in diameter, in an MRI, CT.
06:35And I showed him some x-rays as well.
06:38And the image, he asked, see, Kyle Hudgens, he asked me, when I showed him these pictures,
06:46well, what did they say it was?
06:49All right.
06:50And so then I was told I had simply strained a neck muscle.
06:55And that was his diagnosis pronouncement that he wrote in his records.
07:01And he advanced the psychological etiology as well.
07:05For a purely physical problem I was carrying, and he wrote in my records I was exhibiting aberrant behavior.
07:12And I had a chronic infection in my neck below this injury.
07:16And basically I was dying at this point.
07:20My health was sliding into serious decline.
07:26He did not write me any prescription for medicine.
07:29And he gave me no referral on to another doctor.
07:35And his opinion was incorrect as well.
07:41It was a misdiagnosis.
07:42And his erroneous pronouncement adversely impacted future medical professionals' opinions of my injury.
07:50Last week I did some videos on my exchange with Birmingham Radiological Group.
07:59And they had three radiologists who misdiagnosed my x-ray, CT scans,
08:08and an MRI scan that I had done at St. Vincent's East Hospital, Ascension, and American Health Imaging.
08:18And these radiologists were Angus Baird, MD, and American Health Imaging.
08:24Julian Patrick Druhan did the x-ray and two CT scans for St. Vincent's East, Ascension.
08:31And Donald Shane Kelly, who did the CT scan, I had, with contrast, also at St. Vincent's East Hospital.
08:44So yeah, when you go around and you have these different medical scans,
08:50and you take the medical data and you move it on to the next doctor or hospital,
08:59yeah, and what's produced in these various medical encounters, this does not exist in a vacuum.
09:05But in my case, I got all my records and I took this around with me to these new doctors
09:12that I would visit.
09:13And yeah, in this video series, I will illustrate how the erroneous pronouncements
09:21and the misdiagnosis of the three radiologists who are members of Birmingham Radiological Group
09:28that I mentioned, that information, it later adversely impacted the medical opinions
09:38of otherwise unrelated doctors.
09:43So yeah, I took the St. Vincent's East Ascension imagery to Grandview Neurology in Kyle Hudgens.
09:54He took the pictures, and yeah, he looked at them, and I gave him a disc,
10:00and he left the room where the medical encounter took place,
10:08and he went and looked at these pictures, I believe, on a computer for about 10 minutes.
10:14And then he came back into the room.
10:16So please note here, Kyle Hudgens, when I showed him these pictures,
10:20he didn't say, I can't look at those pictures, I don't know what I'm looking at, etc.
10:27He took the pictures, and he proceeded to review them, all right, and this is very significant.
10:33Yeah, I asked him, what did the pictures look like?
10:36And he was kind of cagey, kind of quiet about what his thoughts were.
10:45And then he comes back, and he asked me, well, what did the doctors,
10:52what did the radiologists involved in those scans say the diagnosis was?
10:58And right there's not to try, but that was, at the women's specifications.
10:58If I get it, what did the Nazis look like, it might be like,
