The staff at the front desk and nursing staff are always helpful and kind and caring!

Dr mitchel also lied on phone answering my questions again just recently last Thursday even when i asked specific questions about past images if xrays etc and said nothing there... well i looked myself he lied its been diagnosed for years and hes been lying and not treating me and they've told me im too young repeatedly be in pain still now for over 10 plus years as im seeking honest help with no help or pain relief from mercy just lies and shady billing since theyre doing labs and imaging and lying about results so you do more imaging. I have alll the proof its in my med records. They also refuse relief for the excruciating pain. Im in excruciating pain daily, im a huge fall risk at this point, i cant walk many days from pain and bones crumbling and osteo arthritis its caused all due to malpractice ignoring me, my pain etc. This Sounds like a great opportunity to consult an attorney instead of a dr, they might actually help me walk again and not be a fall hazard, maybe ill be able to do normal daily functions again if i join a different medical group that doesn't lie to their patients because lazy or to increase billing and do additional tests for more money. The place is a scam and will not help you and if anything tells u to go to ER for help which is not what the ER is for when i been seeking help for 15 plus yrs and records to prove it. Dr mitchel lying and not doing his job has also cost me several hundred thousand if not millions over 10 to 15 years in lost ability to work and a liability case dr mitchel tossed because of not doing proper care or testsand handling my case properly and claiming im fine refusing to bleieve me because hes a younh dr that said i cant hurt that much and now i cant walk thanks to mercy and dr mitchel and other drs who been involved Now because brandon mitchel has lied and not treated me properly for my condition and refused any pain medication like was previously prescribed in pain management before pain dr got caught for fraud like mercy is about too ican hardly walk most days and in excruciating pain and will have to have knee and hip surgeries probably to get staryed and who knows aboyt my back now that im with different drs that havent lied to me yet. brandon mitchell and every other dr in my med records whos been lying because im only 34 now or theyre frauding insurance needs to stop and they deserve to lose their license to practice medicine anywhere Dr morgan was a joke performed nosed surgery destroyed my sinus way worse horribke issues and excruciating pain from his hack job surgery also.

Mercy Briarwood is as good as it gets. On site labs, normally able to get same day appointments,…read moreand nurses and doctors very good at calling you back when you have a question for them. Check in is very easy and copays are due at check in. And YES they take credit/debit cards and have chip reading technology. The wait after check in is usually not long even when busy. I believe the longest I have waited is 10 min. Not bad. The medical staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They take the time to get a history and do a thorough examination, and make sure you get the appropriate care you need when you need it. If you are moving to the Ankeny area and are looking for a practice you can rely on and trust, give Mercy Briarwood a try. Regardless if you are 5 or 50 they have the staff to care for whatever your are requiring of them. You will not be disappointed.

We are now changing offices because we no longer trust the staff.

Anyone reading this review and considering this office for either themselves or their children, please know that this is the most respected ENT clinic in the area. My son has very complex medical problems, so unfortunately we are very familiar with a laundry list of specialists. So trust me when I say I know my way around a good office and a bad office. I know the difference between a good provider and a bad provider. Dr Young takes care of our little boy and he takes care of pretty much every medically complex child in our area. In fact, I just recommended him to someone today, which is when I saw the shocking (yet solitary) 1 star review while going to copy and paste the phone number. I'm familiar with other people who work in this office as well. The people that work here really know their stuff and their hearing booth is state of the art. So happy to have a wonderful ENT clinic near us!

Terrible time getting reimbursed…read more We saw Dr. Young who provided fine care. Had to pay out of pocket- nearly $6,000- as my child was not on our insurance yet. It took 3 months to get reimbursed despite insurance also coming thru 2 months prior. Got the run around from office staff with several conflicting excuses-- put on a reimbursement list, check is cut-should see it any day, billing isn't in house, etc. Finally getting to the point of absurdity and blatant disregard, we had called several days in a row, leaving voicemails and not getting anywhere or thru to anyone to help, at our whits end. Front desk must have gotten in touch with billing that was apparently 'closed' and the FINALLY sent the funds back to the card I originally paid with. Pretty easy fix for the absolute nightmare we went through to get repaid for a service rendered in early June. Would not recommend.

I did some research and, out of curiosity, decided to call the hotline to see if we had a clinic in the area that offered this "service." They connected me with Innervisions Healthcare. If you're exploring your options, please know that Innervisions is a crisis pregnancy center. I did not speak to the provider they referred me to because I didn't actually need support. I'm leaving this review so others know what to expect before going to this place. These organizations may seem neutral, but many are designed to discourage abortion and can be misleading. Please do your research.

They were unable to tell me how they are funded. They insisted upon a pregnancy test for someone well into menopause. Each time the RN providing care entered the room, she was wearing one more religious symbol. The test results would be ready in a week. Most places take only a day or two. They refused to give results over the phone, when asked to do so. At the end, the RN, with her religious medallions, requested prayer with me. I went for healthcare--not to be prosyletized to. I will never recommend them.

The maternity floor was like a hotel, and we were in the same room the entire time, no need for moving around. Our nurses were so patient and clear with what they were doing and explained why if I asked, the anesthesiologist hooked me up to the epidural so expertly I barely felt it going in, felt like two bee stings if that. Even though it wore off before pushing, everything went smoothly and went very well, I couldn't have asked for better people! We had the option to leave the day of, but we were so comfortable we stayed an extra day, and thank goodness we did because they gave us so much useful information we didn't even think to ask.

The Public Health nurse who called me said I should see an allergist and get a prescription for epi pens because AGS is weird and even with low levels I could have an anaphylactic reaction (and as it turns out the absolute gastrointestinal misery I went through that spurred me to get the testing *was* a form of anaphylactic reaction). Unfortunately I chose this place. Over $600 to be told the AGS levels on my blood test were "likely a false positive" and therefore no Epi was prescribed. Visit notes list several things that were not actually done and says I likely have "food intolerance", not an allergy. Completely disregarded the fact that AGS is a reaction to a SUGAR molecule while the limited scratch tests he did on me check reactions to PROTEINS (which is why they are NOT reliable for testing for AGS). Did NOT prescribe an Epi for me, so I just starved my way through a two-week camping trip for fear of potential reaction. My visit notes also suggest a "pork sausage challenge" at the office over 4 hours to rule out AGS. That's NOT the way AGS works. With AGS you can eat something one time and not react at all, and have the exact same thing two days later and have a bad reaction. It's a crap shoot. It's just plain dangerous to suggest to someone they're not AGS based on the fact that they don't react within a few hours to *one* in-office challenge. What happens when someone celebrates with a nice steak dinner because this doctor said they had a false positive, and they wake up in hospital or worse because *that's* when their body decided to react?? I also do NOT appreciate the complete lack of transparency with respect to pricing. Prices and fees should be clearly communicated BEFORE testing so the patient can make an informed decision as to whether to proceed. I feel like the over $600 I was charged for this one short visit with minor testing was a massive overcharge. I won't be going back.
