As one that rarely sees a doctor, when I had to get a surgical clearance I found it was not easy to…read moredo. My surgery was out of town, so I first tried several (like 8) semi-local places I found online in several cities, as well as the local primary care physician. The obstacles here were numerous- the PCP had to "approve" me, and it would be at least a month to see him. Next, I found most urgent care businesses either would not or could not do the lab work and ECG my surgeon needed. I found a place (Care Spot) near the surgeon's office (2.5 hours away) and had to come back and wait several hours for an "appointment". The receptionist unlike the business name was not caring, and never mentioned fasting for the blood work. Since we had like 3 hours until my "appointment" to come back and wait several more hours, my wife & I stopped and had lunch. While there, I got a call from the business and was asked if I had been fasting? I said yes, right up until I had lunch, as no one had said anything about it while we were there earlier. I cancelled the "appointment" and we drove home. A couple of days later, my wife had an appointment in Thomasville, so we stopped in to Doctor's Care. The first thing I noticed was the green circle gun sign- meaning the business had no irrational fear of defensive weapons. I appreciated the wording on it so much I took a picture and added it for this review. Inside, this receptionist was very caring, and helpful. I saw there were a couple of Bibles in the reading material as well. This place was outstanding! It was 180 degrees out from Care Spot. No coming back, they don't do appointments, and the remainder of the staff including the doctor were very friendly. He even diagnosed a minor issue I had and told me he could handle it on my next visit. BTW, no fasting required. I was in and out within a couple of hours and they will have my lab work back in a day's time. More icing on the cake- they were $40 cheaper than Care Spot. :) Doctor's Care is an example of a properly-operated urgent care facility. I would strongly encourage anyone needing timely and quality care to go here.

She said they hold appointments for an hour even if you're not here. Then she tells a guy when he walked him they're extremely busy and he should go to TMH urgent care. (What)?? Then she tells a customer they may not take his insurance without knowing if that was the case so he could leave. The problem is I have the same insurance that was previously accepted. I asked for her manger (Xavier she stated) She called him and lied about my concerns and then sat there and whispered with another office worker while still not wanting to work. She didn't mention to me when I checked in they were running behind I had sat over 45min before she says they will try to see if the other appointments don't show which they hold for an hour even if there not in the building. I've never heard of this, but maybe this is why they turn patients away and get behind. Terrible!!!!!!! I hope this gets fixed soon because customer service like this is not what I'm accustomed to with PF.:( Whitney Wells (Regional Director) if you see this the staff needs training in policy and customer service.

I went in today not one seat available in a waiting room of 30 or more chairs. Now that people are traveling from Quitman and neighboring cities for the service.

That tells me a large majority of people paying them a visit are not adequately covered which may be the reason why they are willing to travel so far. The practice was fine before all of the surrounding cities started to descend on it.

I felt the NP was not willing to listen to me objectively.

The NP said she could not just go by what I was saying. I guess I should have left right away, but instead I thought I could plead my case to the NP who made the rash decision to refuse to see me.
