Literally went in there to get a UTI piss test and to get my glucose levels checked to see if I could possibly be diabetic since I keep getting reoccurring UTIs and other symptoms and was worried that I could possibly have it.
I only went here because my primary care doctor at my doctors office in Chelmsford doesn't practice anymore and I needed to sign up for a new doctor but didn't have the time to. I wanted to be seen right away.
So I go to Convenient MD, 20 minutes before they closed, because well...I got out of work late and it was the only place that was open nearby. So I go in and everything seems to be going normal except for the fact that one of The head nurses that took notes on his laptop about my symptoms, kept asking me the same questions over and over or would type things/symptoms that I never said, so I assumed he was training but when I asked him he said "No." OK so I guess you weren't paying attention??? They had me pee in the cup, pin prick my index finger yada yada yada...then they start taking out the swabs for STDs, yet I have my own gyno I go to regularly 4 times a year (every three months), but I let them do their jobs, even though this wasn't what I came here for.
In the end...I'm told I'm fine and that my urine, my glucose and everything else looked really good and that maybe it could be something else that I should go see my primary care for, since they couldn't find anything wrong with me. I tell the staff at the desks outside the triages and the nurses, "Is it okay if you guys can call me on a follow up and let me know my results again in a few days, just in case my results change?" Cause that's what's every doctors office IVE EVER BEEN TO DID. They would not tell you straight up that you were fine, they'd actually TEST YOUR ASS AND THEN CALL YOU A FEW DAYS LATER AND TELL YOU THE RESULTS. They tell me "Of course we would call or email you."
FIVE DAYS LATER, no call, no emails, no NOTHING. I felt so sick and in pain I called them myself and once I found out my results, I was in shock.
If I had never called, I probably would have never found out my actual results...
I literally told the receptionist on the phone with me that I thought her staff were LAZY and that they are only there to make MONEY and that it was 20 minutes before they closed so obviously they were trying to rush me out of there without actually giving two pigeon shits if I was actually fine. She apologized over and over and said she's not in charge of their department but that she felt sorry for me and told me it was okay if I didn't want to pay FIFTEEN DOLLARS to use their pharmacy and that I could go to Walmart to pick my prescription up for practically free of charge. I should have just signed up for a new doctor and got seen a week later if I had known I was going to be waiting a week to get treated anyway. I don't even want to pay the bill, never mind finding out how much it's going to cost me. They don't deserve my money.
By the way, since I know the infection reached my bladder since I am having terrible abdominal pain and other serious problems so hopefully the antibiotics these idiots prescribed are going to get rid of it. I can tell you this is not just a UTI anymore. I'll freak out if I have to switch medications. DONT EVER GO HERE ITS JUST A CROOKED MONEY MAKING FACILITY. THEY AREN'T REAL DOCTORS. THEY ARE A BUNCH OF FUCKING QUACKS. read more
