I had a very good experience with this office. Especially with Brianna, she was such a good receptionist, she's always so caring and asking if we need anything, my mom always enjoys going to this specific clinic because of the care we receive from the doctors. read more

Such a pathetic display of arrogance and evasive attitudes when asked any kind of questions. You can have the newest office in the nicest part of town but an ugly personality at the front desk ruins all that read more

I went in for a basic physical, and my experience with Dr. Fredong and the lab assistent Alexis was positive, even though I was a first time patient to this clinic. From the front desk to the examination room, all my questions were listened to and answered completely. Alexis was on her game when she drew my blood, I didn't feel a thing. read more

Very friendly staff apon arrival, allowed my service dog in and we came as a walk in. Suggested to have something on the tv for my son. They were very friendly and joyful while choosing a cartoon. We were here about 2 months ago and now for an upcoming appointment. It was a slower day and are able to show commitment for there patients. But it's always been my to go 2 spot read more

The staff has changed a lot!!! The front desk is extremely helpful. I had Mrs. Reyes help me for the last two days on a stupid PA needed for my ongoing meditation. She not only made sure to follow up but ended up calling my insurance and the pharmacy back to back on her own to resolved the issue. I'm so greatly appreciative of her hard work. read more

Great customer service overall. The wait was about 2hrs but the ladies in the front will give you a call 15-20mins before you get called back. That gave me enough time to run errands and get back. I was assisted by three medical staff, Osgood, Alondra, and I didn't get the other individual's name, but they were all amazing and very professional! read more

On Saturday November 1,2025 I went to Doctors on Duty for the first time. Very positive experience . I was greeted by a receptionist ( did not get her name, sorry) who took my personal information in a very respectful and friendly manner. I was in the clinic because I was experiencing breathing problems associated with my asthma. After about 1 hr. 30 min. wait I was seen. What I liked about my waiting time is that I was able to leave the clinic and have lunch with my sister. I received a phone call informing me to return to the clinic to be seen. I thought that was outstanding. I was greeted by my nurse- Pearl. Pearl was very enthusiastic and greeted me with a smile. She insured my comfort and wellbeing as I waited for Dr. Doug Fredona to address my needs. Dr. Fredona greeted me with enthusiasm and kindness. After a short history about my asthma, I was told that I needed a breathing treatment to assist my breathing. A nurse by the name of: Clarissa greeted me with the same enthusiasm and kindness has did everyone that I made contact with so far. Outstanding! Clarissa sent up my breathing treatment and made sure of my comfort. I felt well cared for. My breathing treatment was a success and positive experience. My breathing improved, I was given a prescription drug by Doctor Fredona and left the clinic healthier and feeling better. Thank you so much to the receptionist, Nurses Pearl and Clarissa for your outstanding enthusiastic care and to Dr. Doug Fredona for ensuring me with better breathing now and for the future. I highly recommend Doctors on Duty at 1212 South Main Street in Salinas. read more

I got there 20min before they opened and was 6th in line. I waited 1hr to be called in and another hour for test results which should've taken 15min max. The test could've yielded a false result since it was not read within the 15min so now I don't know what the real result was. The assistant that took my weight didn't ask me to remove my shoes, jacket, or even put my purse down. Not sure how she's going to get an accurate reading like that. She also took my blood pressure over my sweater and told me my blood pressure was high.. again not sure how that gave her an accurate reading. I will not come back to this location. read more

I want to thank Alexis, Dr Lugars assistant for setting a comfortable energy to environment, she explained things very well & professionally seems to be an exceptional woman, very genuine and helpful. As well as Mr Lugar, I appreciate from both, the medical advice in taking care of the injury. Retaining Knowledge is Key :) read more

I went to doctors on duty South Main Salinas. I had a very good experience. MA Pearl was friendly and professional. Provider- Osgood PA did a great job making me feel comfortable. She was very thorough and professional. read more

I was here from out of town and my son had some stomach issues and since we were visiting we decided to come here just to make sure he was ok before I had to head out. The wait wasn't too bad, we called ahead of time and the doctor did really well with him and said he was ok in the end. Compared to other visits at urgent cares, this was great! I would come back again if need be. read more

Doctors On Duty - Urgent Care Near Me - Salinas, California

I was greatly impressed by this group when I visited this morning. There was a short wait as well as a very gracious, highly professional staff. What a pleasant surprise! Highly recommend it! read more

Saw Dr Gray on January 14 I'm here for my Follow up appointment today with Dr Gray I went in as a walk in and the wait was minimal. As always the counter staff was friendly, welcoming and the office is clean. I will continue to visit Dr Gray when I am in need of medical attention. Hopefully not soon as I hope I stay healthy. Lol. Thank you Dr Gray and staff. Good Job! read more

My review is for Fernando. He has impeccable customer service. He makes you laugh and puts you at ease! He took my blood pressure manually kudos to him! I hate the wonky auto bp machines. Excellent service today. read more

The wait times are horrible. The front desk are a bunch of stupid people who have to ask the manager questions every single time. There are no independent thinking skills on display here. They are disgustingly rude and don't listen to patients. The manager is always gone or late when you ask to speak to one. I feel bad for people that are in distress coming in and they turn them away hours before the clinic closes. Hopefully this place goes out of business. read more

I swear this clinic sucks they open at 745 n it's 9 N they already stopped taking patients with only 5 people in the lobby n they close at 3 how is this clinic still running read more

Just an FYI when you go into this location even if you pay in full for your services, expect to have a mystery charge a few days later for no apparent reason. If you call their billing department they will tell you the charge is valid and that the location missed it day off. If you into the location they will tell you it was missed by the back team and if you ask for a manager then they will tell you said manager is in a meeting. read more

Dr. Neeraj Satyanarayana is the best!! He takes the time to ask patients questions, pays attention to their concerns and medical needs. Definitely recommend Doctors on Duty! Got X-rays, bloodwork, at the same visit!! Everything in one place. I am happy this is my new PCP. read more

I called before driving there and explained that I lived 30 minutes away. The girl I spoke with was friendly and stated yes that I can come in as a walk in for my 4 year old daughter. I got there and the front desk were so rude to me, first they ignored me and then when one of them did decide to help me she told me that they were busy and that my daughter would be put on a wait list and they would call me if they had availability! What the hell, the girl on the phone told me to come in!! After I explained I was from 30 minutes away!!!! Front desk also said that I can just come back Monday... um no. I'm coming now for a reason not to come back on Monday... 2 days later.. if I could give this place 0 stars I would, rude & unprofessional!!! I wish I would have got the 2 girls names in the front. They were young. I would never recommend this DOD to anyone, might as well go to the emergency room. read more

Friend went in at 930am to see a doctor wasn't taken back until 445 pm and not seen by doctor until 600 pm.Was told it would be 2 hrs more or less. When one hears that you would think it might be an extra hour, not 8 hours. They call this patient care??? Very disappointed and mad about treatment, the staff is indifferent and doesn't even have the courtesy to be embarrassed by this, in fact when I got there to check on her they were snippy that I would question the length of time. I have always had good experiences with my doctors who are part of Salinas valley health system but someone needs to look into how these clinics are run! I would give it a zero but not able to. Also it seems to be common practice if you know someone who works here you can get bumped to front of the line. What a great way to run a business. No hot water in restrooms and they are dirty. read more

I am writing to express my extreme disappointment and concern about the unacceptable treatment at Doctors on duty located at 1212 S Main St, Salinas, CA 93901, on February, 10, 2024 specifically around 2:00 pm. Upon arriving at the center with my wife in severe pain and in urgent need of medical attention, the two females at the front desk displayed an alarming lack of compassion and professionalism. They outright refused to check my wife in, insisting that we should have had an appointment beforehand. Shockingly, they suggested we go to a nearby medical clinic across the street. Note that, the website currently does not provide an option to book appointments online. This incident raises serious questions about the commitment to patient care and the understanding of the gravity of medical emergencies by your staff. It is deeply troubling that individuals with medical certifications and an oath to help people could turn away someone clearly in distress. Adding to the frustration, they claimed that the doctor in charge couldn't take any patients, and there was no supervisor to talk with. despite being only one person waiting in the lobby when we arrived. This situation not only reflects poorly on your medical center but also undermines the trust patients place in healthcare providers during times of urgent need. Such negligence is not only disappointing but also a breach of the fundamental principles that govern the medical profession. read more

Do Not go to this establishment!! They are very unprofessional and unprepared. I was put on a secondary wait list and they never had the courtesy of calling me to let me know they would not be able to fit me in for an appointment. Save yourself from a lot of frustration and go to any other Doctors on Duty where they are courteous professional and see ALL patients with NO EXCUSES !! read more

I came in at 815 am and was told my wait was going to be 2 hours that was 5 people in front of me. I came back then I was told another hour I came back and was told 2 more hours that is 4people still in front of me. I called back and was told another 2 hours that there are 3 people still in front of me. I'm still here sitting in the office it is now 315 pm it has been 7 hours this is terrible I ah of gone to the ER it would have been faster. I just have an ear infection and didn't want to waist hospital time on a ear infection. read more

We all know that urgent care is much more mellow than the ER. My mother was exhibiting signs of a UTI so we waited for two hours to see a clinician. The medical assistants and staff were all very patient and sweet. BUT my mom loves the NP named "shayla" who wears scrubs that are "Figs" brand. My mom kept calling her Dr Figs and wants to see her at every visit. Thank you, "Dr Figs"! read more

I would recommend this office because when you actually have a problem, they will listen to you. When necessary, they were only perform the tests that are required. I have seen Dr. Luther and Dr. Blackstone, who are both excellent doctors. They are good listeners and have, thoroughly, read my chart. They consulted each other on my medical case/history. They are both patient with me and all inane questions. They answer my questions in a succinct and easy to understand way. I have talked to the "receptionists," Miss Elena (at S. Main St. office) and Miss Natalie (at Abbott Street office), both are extremely helpful, reliable, courteous, and polite. They make my doctors visits less like a scary nightmare, and more like somewhere I don't want to drag my heels when I need help to feel better. I will be returning, hopefully, not too soon to their doctors office. read more

Not a good place to see a doctor.even if you have a appointment they make you wait at least 3 hours it's ridiculously the wait . And some of the staff not very nice .it's not like we see the doctor for free we pay are visits Pluses they stopped getting pacientes at 5 pm wean there web said at 6pm the need to change there web read more

Wow, what a horrible front desk staff. Upon walking in I was told we will be right with you and I was fine waiting to be helped. While waiting I was instructed by someone else to use the kiosk. While the gentleman who walked in not even 2 minutes later was helped kindly and responded to immediately with whatever he needed. I walked in with a possible fractured ankle, but that's why I need a doctor since I don't know. I was forced to stand on it and use the kiosk. I would never recommend even trying to see the doctor as the staff here has a horrendous attitude towards individuals and they themselves decide who they want to help for the day is what it seems like. read more

My 2 year old daughter was just turned away although your hours say you're open until 8, but your staff indicated that your doctors are going home and now that you're down to one, they won't see any one else unless they signed up online. Although we arrived at 5:45, are traveling and our daughter is only 2. There was zero attempt to try and prioritize patients or figure out what was wrong. Although Mayra was not rude, I'm just shocked at this practice! I am here in Salinas/Monterey county multiple times a month with my family and we will not be returning. I will also actively work hard to make sure as many people as possible hear our story and choose another urgent care. I also strongly recommend that if the only way you'll see patience is if they sign up somewhere online, that this is actually on your website!!!!! I can't find anything about signing up to be seen. I'm also shocked that when I asked to speak to someone I was told that there were no managers. As a CEO, I'm surprised that any organization would not have access to management or supervision. And that your staff wouldn't try to priotize patients based on urgency of symptoms (ahem URGENT care) care nor would they try and talk to the doctor, no attempt to problem solve. Perhaps I have been privileged in recieving positive medical care for my family--but I am just shocked that this is the way people in need are treated, without any care in the world other than a message of having a wait list and clearly wanting to go home (and as someone who works 7 days a week, I can appreciate that), but then pick a different field! I urge you to find a different urgent care center!!!!!!!! Also online there are some pages where you can find a "get in line option" as picture says, but it says you can arrive and be seen in order of arrival, which is false, as our story is a testament to!!!!!!!!! read more

Maritza is amazing. She made me feel comfortable at the initially screening. Great attitude.

5 stars for Dr Gray and his team! My mom took my little brother in because he had a really bad cough and my mom said that he was very nice to them and took the proper precautions. I Recommend this place! read more

My daughter had 10 penal drug test and TB chest X-Ray done for her EMT Class. The front desk Specialist are friendly and helpful and most importantly doctors and nurses are great with my two daughters . I'm just glad the clinic is near by to meet my families medical and emergency need. Don't mine the long wait :) have the option of waiting at home. It's about minutes away from home. read more

My 10 month old has a really bad cough, runny nose and a fever on and off. I went here at 4:15pm and they said they no longer accept walk in patients. I bet it'll take no more than 10 min for a doctor to look at him and prescribe him something. They only told us no because they close at 5 and how said is that. If you decide you want to work in the heath care field be prepared to help at all costs. I just wanted someone to look at him so they can tell me which cough medicine to get. Unbelievable. read more

Although the wait was long to see a physician, it was well worth the wait. The Dr. was kind, listened to me, my health history (my GP of 30 years retired recently) and took a wholistic approach to determine the next steps for me. I truly appreciated the staffs professionalism as well. read more

I walked into the office at noon... was told by a VERY rude young lady that no more patients were being seen today.... Their posted hour are til 6, and they wouldn't take any one at noon???? The waiting room was not overcrowded.... read more

Not off to a good start, 8:00 a.m. is for walk ins only, sidewalk outside clearly posted 3' apart but when doors are open at 8:00 they allow everyone to bunch in shoulder to shoulder. Didn't realize there was a temperature check until we were seated. First group did not do temperature check as the line was too bunched up. Got signed in, it's 8:27 and 1st patient in line just got cld in. Front desk is super busy, girls are screening calls, walk ins and doing sign ins and taking insurance info - very effortlessly. After a 50 minute wait we were in a waiting room getting vitals. Attending physician was great. read more

So update. These doctors were totally bogus my son ended up having like a major issue with his feet, he had like bone swelling and we had to go to go to UCSF and he has a lot of health issues now because of that foot and the doctor treated us as if we were like some dumb dirt that didn't know nothing and he just thought my son had a little sprang ankle this place needs to get sued from malpractice cause they are horrible read more

Ear Cerumen Removal for Excessive Ear Wax with Michelle P (MA) went absolutely amazing! I've had ear wax cleaning procedures before and this one has been the best so far. The attention and care to the cleaning procedure was great, the doctor was called in various stages of the cleaning process to ensure everything was good ! I really appreciate their support and excellent service ! read more

The staff was great. Very friendly and attentive. Glad that they still offer same day lab service. Very clean office. I will say, this place DOES GET BUSY. Be prepared to wait 2-3 hrs. I was a walk-in, so I will not complain about the wait. I'm glad a doctor was able to see me, same day. read more

My daughter needed some medical attention and we opted for an urgent care facility instead of the emergency room. After being pre-screened prior to entering we found the facility to very clean and hygienic. Everyone from the receptionist to the medical assistant to the provider were exceptionally professional, courteous and friendly. I have been to other urgent care facilities in the area and none of them can compare to the level of care and compassion that Doctors on Duty provide. I highly recommend this clinic for their staff and the level or care they provide. read more

Went to a concert last night with my family for my early month birthday surprise!!
