I've had a very frustrating experience with Athens Family Practice. The older lady sitting on the…read moreright when you check in is consistently rude to patients. I've personally watched her speak disrespectfully not only to people checking in, but also to some of the employees. When you're already coming to a doctor's office stressed or not feeling well, the last thing you want is to be greeted with that kind of attitude. Their appointment scheduling also needs serious improvement. I was told there was an opening, got scheduled, and then when I showed up they told me the appointment was actually for a completely different day and time. That kind of mix-up wastes people's time and shouldn't be happening at a medical office. To make things even worse, they later told me I had "rescheduled too many times" and that they were considering dropping me as a patient -- which was extremely frustrating considering the scheduling confusion on their end in the first place. Unfortunately, the care itself didn't feel much better. It often seemed like the doctors were just trying to put a temporary bandage on issues instead of really figuring out what's going on and helping fix the problem. Overall, the front desk professionalism, scheduling system, and quality of care all need major improvement. Patients deserve to feel respected and confident in the care they're receiving, and that just wasn't my experience here.

I truly like the staff here. I would still recommend anyone to go here.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. His nurse acted embarrassed when he left the room. I told her that he was a nut and I left. I ended up paying the guy because I hate to have to owe anyone money. I was also offended by the Botox posters plastered all over the waiting room walls and hallway.....and then you see a Biblical scripture facing you you when you go to the pay window. I thought that was a bit ironic. I am not complaining about the scripture, just that it was placed in the middle of all these botox posters....weird. Had to wait for ages as well and waiting area was the size of a closet. The exam room was _smaller_ than a closet! Stay away!!!!!!!
