They almost damaged and life threatening tryimg to give my grand baby only a few months old the wrong shots. wrong vaccines and they acted like they didn't care. no remorse. My daughter spoke up and repeatedly telling them that's the wrong shots and they ignored her. But thank God my daughter told them and made sure he wasn't gonna get those shots. This nursing staff needs to be cleared out for a new staff or this doctor will be losing more than patients coming to see her!

All they care about are the copays here! Dr. Camillo has absolutely no bedside manners whatsoever!…read moreMy 3 month old baby had an emergency over the weekend. Since Sebring has no pediatric hospital I had to go down to Miami to get my baby checked into the emergency room because she had a possible seizure. I left multiple messages for the doctor to call me back with the nurse on call and nobody called me back for an entire week and a half!!!!! Thankfully after 2days in the hospital in observation and running numerous tests, the results were negative Thank God! I called the doctors office and spoke with the front desk who advised me that in order for me to speak with the doctor, I would have to come in. I asked if they had received any of my messages and they advised that they did receive them but in order for me to speak with the doctor I had to go in person. A simple phone call from Dr.Camillo asking how she was doing prior to me coming in for a follow up appointment would have been the professional thing to do. But she refused to call me and required me to come in person. Again, absolutely no bedside manners whatsoever!!!!! We will NEVER go back there again! On top of that, the front desk is VERY unprofessional, whether you're in person or over the phone one of the front desk girls constantly calls you "Babe" .... What is that?! Either call me by my last name, first name or "Mam". But it's extremely unprofessional to be calling patients mothers "Babe"!

Please be careful of Dr Veronica Walker!…read more My daughter was visiting from out of town and was struggling with a UTI. Dr Walker prescribed ciprofloxacin. Cipro has a BLACK BOX WARNING! It's well and widely known that cipro is a DANGEROUS medication and should only be prescribed as a last resort. News articles, cdc, fda, nhs, Mayo Clinic, clinical journals and personal stories warning about the dangers of cipro and this doctor prescribed it for a minor uti. Dr Walker should have her medical license reviewed! There are SEVERAL other less dangerous UTI medications that could have been prescribed such as Keflex, Macrobid, Macrodantin or Monurol. Occasionally there are new medical advancements and new information that comes out...we don't use leaches any longer to cure headaches and we shouldn't be flippantly prescribing cipro any longer. From a simple search... and then there are articles after articles! "Cipro (ciprofloxacin) should only be prescribed by doctors as a last resort for severe infections when no other options exist, due to severe, permanent, and disabling side effects. The FDA and other agencies have warned against its use for common, uncomplicated infections like sinusitis, bronchitis, and simple urinary tract infections (UTIs). Risks: It carries FDA "black box" warnings for risks including tendon rupture, peripheral neuropathy, central nervous system effects, and mental health issues."

Dr Alvarez then informed me he ONLY does KNEES. SO I was manipulated into an appointment with WRONG DR. on purpose.

I submitted the change request to yelp so hopefully it will be updated soon... However, I thought it may be worth noting... Even though they could not provide the services I required, they did look up someone who could. Then the receptionist I spoke with happily provided me with all the pertinent information. I didn't even have to request her help. It was offered freely. In today's world that speaks volumes to me! I can't say anything about the doctor, but from my phone conversation, I feel fully confident saying that at least your dealings w/their front office will be pleasurable.

Angelica took me through security and onto Jennifer, the concierge, in almost no time. Jennifer already knew my name and had paperwork in hand, and with that, she showed me my next stop with Dana who knew exactly why I was there and told me that the wait wouldn't be long, and she was right. No sooner did she say that than Rod, the person who was doing the ultrasounds that day, was introducing himself and telling me how easy the procedure would be. He made it so :) The hospital is immaculate, the staff are the BEST EVER, and I am so grateful to have access to such a wonderful hospital! Just want to say thank you to Angelica, Jennifer, Dana, and to Rod who made me feel like I was in good hands at HCA.

- I say he's the best Primary Physician in Highlands County and I'm sticking to it! -…read more As an older Yelper (age 72) I have the experience to know a great doc when I experience one. I've been with him for 11+ years and here is what it's like to visit this practice. Arriving- He is in private practice and owns his own very nice stand-alone building with private parking. It is just off US Route 27 North. Parking is a snap. Ambience- The interior is spotless with a comfortable waiting room. I don't spend much time there as his process is very efficient. His treatment rooms are also very comfortable. Network- He is part of the Advent Health System as are all of my specialist MDs. It's wonderful and extremely convenient that all of my Docs have access to all my records! Intake Process- When I show up, I usually see two or sometimes three folks that take care of the basics. They are friendly and efficient, do their thing and then pop me into a treatment room. So customer service is exemplary. I usually wait about five minutes before the boss shows up. Bedside Manner- If you are expecting a crisp white jacket and formal attitude, you are in the wrong place! He usually wears shorts and for me he hits just the right balance between casual and getting the job done! Super easy to talk to. If I get a blood test, he calls me within a week after the results are in. Faster if it's something serious. Language Barrier- Folks sometimes ask me if he has a difficult accent and the answer is absolutely not! Anyone who has ever met him will say the same. A quick visit to the front desk to pick up any follow up paperwork and I'm out of there! Conclusion- So I experience an excellent environment with solid caring and friendly staff. My records are organized across my Docs. Dr. Sharma's bedside manner suits me, and I trust him! It's a solid five stars from me!

We feel we are extremely fortunate to have found such a wonderful, caring, compassionate, and loving doctor -- who really listens to us. I first started coming to Dr. Montero with a recommendation of a friend from church, back in 2013. Dianne didn't care much for her PCP, so I recommended Dr. Montero -- and she was thrilled with how attentive he was to her needs. My sister Trish invited us over to her house for dinner, and while we were eating my brother-in-law William asked, "I'm not happy with my doctor. Who do you go to, and do you like them? Dianne and I looked at each other and she said, "Do we like him?! He's fabulous!" William asked, "You mean both of you go to him?" I replied, "That's right, and we recommend him highly." So Dr. Montero is now William's PCP, and the next time we were over to their house, William said, "Well you were sure right about Dr. Dan Montero. You feel good having a great PCP like him." There's a good chance the next time we go to their house, he'll probably have Trish going to Dr. Dan . . . (:-o)

When i changed my mind and asked about the availability of a day she mentioned previously she kind of laughed and sighed then proceeded to ask in a hostile voice what time i was looking for. This may be my last visit to this office.
