Dr. Eugene McCoskey, DO

In my opinion, he is honest and straight forward which is rare nowadays. I am allowed to ask questions and I receive answers from his NPs whom I see at the Fleming Island office. None of my other doctors will do this and act like everything is none of my business and is a big secret. My other doctors make me feel insulted and abused and I hate consulting with them. At Dr. McCoskey's I feel like I am taking part in my care which is how it should be because I know how I feel.

This review is not about Dr McCoskey personally, as I think he is a good doctor. This review is about his support staff and the incompetence that I have experienced with them over the last 5 months. In September, a nurse practitioner at his office told me that I needed a CPAP, as I had just taken a test for Sleep Apnea the month prior. I was told at this point that the CPAPs were on back order. After not hearing anything back from them for 3 months, I made another appt to see them for refills. The new nurse practitioner I saw asked me how my CPAP was working. I told her I never received one. She asked the people up front about it. They could not figure out what the holdup was and could not find where an order was made. They said they would put in a new order and I told them I would call them back in 2 weeks, if I had not heard anything. Two weeks came by without a call, so I called them back. I tried to talk to the woman in charge of ordering stuff and left her a voice

I was rushed to Emergency Room. Trouble breathing. ER got me stabilized. Dr McCoskey checked all my pertinent tests and info. Two days later he did a Bronchoscopy and found I had a bad strain of Bacterial Pneumonia that was not showing up on tests except for chest x-ray and CT Scan. He got everything, put me on proper medication, oxigen and breathing spirometers. I spent 10 days in the hospital. He was there every day. He saved my life. If I had waited two more days , they said I would have died. Him and Dr Scott Nelson are anazing. I am 70 years and now I'm back to playing with my Great-grandchildren.

Dr. McCoskey and his staff are very professional and go above and beyond to make sure that we, his patients are taken care of. We are so Happy that he opened his own practice in Fleming Island. They all seem to be way less stressed. If you want a good lung doctor call him, he will get you in quick.

Gentle,no nonsense and caring physician who is honest and straightforward about your condition. i wish all Doctors would act like Dr McCoskey in treating and taking care of their patients. I have complete confidence in him and his staff. Needles to say I would refer my family and friends to him.
