I was recently hurt at work, my PCP was unavailable so I was treated by a NP Stacey Saller. The first visit went well . There was a huge confusion about workers comp. I called billing and was told they do accept workers comp and the women I spoke to in billing actually took the time and walked me through what I need to do. So using My Chart I uploaded the worker comp adjuster info to the office. I received a message stating I should be all set from here on out. My next visit with Stacy Saller was not as friendly. She made me feel uncomfortable like I did something wrong ,telling me that they don't do workers comp. I mentioned then why didn't they just say that and I would've move on. She could not answer the question. She rushed that visit . She didnt Touch on my high blood pressure which the M A noticed when she took me in. She also didn't ask if I was up to going back to work without restriction. She didn't go over my bloodwork. After all said and done I apologized for any confusion on my part . She walked out the door and with her back to me she said you can leave that way. So un professional. I waited some time because I wanted to think this through before I gave a bad review of which I have never done . This was beyond the pale and I really hope this is read by someone above her.

My 100th First to Review!…read more I always find it somewhat awkward reviewing medical professionals... from doctors to dentists, therapists and the like, the unique relationship formed between specialists and their patients seem a strange thing to attach a review to. In any case, the scenario is easier when you have only good things to report. Over the years I have had to switch primary physicians a number of times. Since having left my pediatrician for obvious reasons, insurance changes have forced these necessary adjustments. Fortunately, these exchanges have led me to Dr. Michael Campbell's care. Dr. Campbell is an energetic, knowledgeable, and personable physician practicing Family and Internal Medicine in Fall River, MA. A 2001 graduate of the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, this physician works out of Millview Medical Associates and is affiliated with several surrounding medical establishments. As a healthcare professional myself, it is sometimes difficult to find a physician who will treat you like a patient. What I mean by that is many physicians expect and assume that you know everything there is to know about certain conditions, lab work findings, and medications. This is not the case with Dr. Campbell. He takes the time to willingly review and explain concepts that though familiar to me, are a nice reminder, refresher, or lesson when it comes to my own life. I can only imagine this service is enhanced for those lacking a medical background. He never appears to be in a rush with appointments and don't let this statement fool you... I usually only have to wait about 15 minutes to be called into an examine room. I always feel as though my statements and concerns are heard thoroughly and options in care carefully weighed between the benefits, risks, and what would work best for me individually. It's nice to feel as though you have a working and collaborative relationship with your physician. If you are looking for a primary care physician and he is available to accept new patients, I highly recommend Dr. Campbell for your overall health needs.

Well run practice group of competent medical professionals and helpful support staff…read more Primary care is facing a crisis. Primary care docs only get paid for about 40% of what they spend time doing. The reimbursement rates for what primary care docs do get paid for are significantly lower than they are for specialists. The economics virtually demand primary care docs sprint through their day seeing as many patients as possible, dedicating as few minutes to each as they can get away with. These structural problems, and other concerns, mean the country is facing a primary care doc shortage of 50,000 practitioners over the next decade. But here in Massachusetts, primary care in has been in crisis for years. If you're reading this review looking for a new primary care doc, you probably already knew that. Pros: Millview Medical, which is a Steward health care affiliated practice group under the direction of Christopher Joncas, MD, employs a small army of support staff to let the doctors do what they are there to do - practice medicine. The staff are generally kind, responsive, and competent. And while that should be the standard, it is, in actual fact, extraordinarily rare. The docs with whom I've interacted all have provided medically indicated and appropriate care - and if that sounds like damning with faint praise - it's not - competence is what I value above all else in a physician. Cons: I'd like to see them adopt the kind of patient portal other health care systems have (Partners has patient gateway, Caregroup has patient site) which allow patients to have access to all of their health records and securely electronic message providers. That is a massive capital expenditure and will, undoubtedly, have to come from Steward - hopefully meaningful use will spur them on to it.
