I understand this facility is not capable of testing for a larger variety of issues, however they decided to prescribe him 2,000mg of Amoxicillin *per day*. His symptoms got worse, and when we continued to contact this facility they advised to stick with the dose. A week later we decided to take him into the ER, and it turned out to be Appendicitis-surgery immediately. Again, I understand that Urgent Care centers have limitations on their abilities. However, a transparent suggestion to seek further medical advice instead of feeding him antibiotics would have been a smart and transparent next step. Very upsetting.

The front desk told me that I had no insurance and paid a lump sum of $184.80. Then I told the doctor that I would be out in less than ten minutes. She also said that you don't need to see a doctor for this type of allergy, you can just go to a regular pharmacy and buy medicine yourself! No prescription medication and a month later they sent me another bill for $98.40! Said I chatted with the doctor for 35 minutes! It said that if it exceeds 30 minutes, it will be counted as 45 minutes!

My experience with this place is not good at all, I was a patient at the flagship clinic since March of 2023 and if someone would have asked me how I feel about this place 6 months ago I would have said they are amazing, but when they opened the Cedar Rapids Clinic (I had moved to Cedar Rapids to be closer to family) things deteriorated very quickly. I was super excited to get my daughter and best friend into this clinic also. So, to say I was impatient for opening day that would be a gross understatement. However, when the three of us began seeing the provider in Cedar Rapids it was very clear that the clinic was not ready for opening day. They had no front desk staff and the LPN who was supposed to be in the back was the only person helping the one and only provider the clinic had. While this LPN was sweet to begin with, it quickly it became obvious that she was becoming overloaded with the front desk responsibilities, the duties with/for the provider, answering the phones, submitting billing (this is questionable), sending out lab samples , etc...etc.... The first time my daughter was able to get into the provider we were both excited because I enjoyed the care I received at the West Des Moines office so it was extremely unexpected when the LPN snapped at my daughter right away wanting to know why she was in there wanting to change PCP's when she already had a provider, Mind you my daughter was a) wanting a new provider and b) wanted a second opinion regarding a potential auto-immune disorder, which she has every right to. This LPN's behavior got increasingly worse, she was losing entire and partial samples that needed to go to the lab, she was getting more confrontational with me and my daughter, until she did something that I felt warranted being reported to the main office. When the LPN was ultimately fired. I was immediately told by the provider that she was friends with the LPN and wanted me to know that she was refusing to provide my care moving forward. this was in early November 2025. On November 15th, 2025, I received a message from the VP of Member Services on my patient portal telling me that "since I had not paid dues in 3 months Exemplarcare was terminating my membership. Now I don't want to get into too much detail, but I decided to contact my insurance company with this conundrum that happened with Exemplarcare in November, I was advised to ask for a "Billing Audit", so I sent a message through my portal requesting this document and stated that I believed that 2 business days should be ample time to send this document. Later, on Friday, I got an email from the VP of member services stating that if I did not cease communications with the office, [she] was going to seek legal action. Now I assume this means that they are refusing to provide me with that information... I have attached a picture of that e-mail to this comment. Not a great experience in the end! UTA: I just noticed that a staff member wrote their own review in an attempt to sway the overall rating of this place. It's pretty pathetic that a "professional" place of business would need its own employees to write false reviews; this is cheating and if they will cheat for a review the just think about the level of pettiness they take in your care and how they would take great ease in spreading any number of patients business anywhere they please. so Seriously and incredibly pathetic!!!!!!

After completing an in home sleep test ordered by my primary Doctor, I was referred to Iowa Clinic…read morepulmonary in Ankeny. Iowa Clinic ordered a second more extensive in home sleep study. Both tests revealed I had sleep apnea. Iowa Clinic ordered me to do an in lab sleep study. Would not fill CPAP rx without it. My primary did not support need for in-lab. After pre-authorization I was told my out of pocket would be $156. I attempted the study but could not sleep. Subsequently insurance denied claim, reason was the study was not necessary. Stating an automatic machine could have been used. Iowa Clinic then filled the rx for the CPAP. I received a bill from Iowa Clinic for the failed sleep study for $2100.00. I tried to get an answer from IC as to why the sleep study was necessary and why a failed study would cost $2100.00. The only answer I received was they did everything they could with the insurance co. and I owed the money. I appealed the denial and it upheld it was unnecessary. I requested a third party review through the state and again, ruled unnecessary. I will never step foot in an Iowa Clinic again. I have changed to a different provider to monitor my sleep apnea.

We were On a road trip and my son had a slight cough (2 year old).

The PA, Rhonda snuck him in right away and only took a few minutes to evaluate him before sending us to the ER. My son was reluctant to participate in any type of prodding or evaluation. Very thankful she was patient and so good with him, and they didn't end up charging us since no treatment was given. I was a little leery when driving up to a grocery store to get care, but they were very professional (the nurse and PA) and I'd absolutely go there again.

Marcy'sDinerTantrumScale 5/5- NoScreamingKids. I do know over the years that the meds that are prescribed for sinus infections has changed. And I'm willing and able to accept that. The last one I had was completely healed with the same med they ordered today. It's not the same ones Docs used to prescribe, but it's effective. And that's what matters. To use the top line of antibiotics immediately leaves nothing to go to if that infection doesn't clear up. No point in creating superbugs, right?!

The receptionist was shockingly rude, dismissive, and completely unhelpful. She acted like answering basic questions was an inconvenience and moved at an unreasonably slow pace despite the office being completely empty. An empty waiting room should have been a red flag--and after reading other reviews, it's obvious this place has a pattern of poor service. This was not a one-off bad day; it's how they operate. To make matters worse, they seem more focused on overcharging than actually helping patients. There was little to no effort to work with insurance, which feels intentional and predatory. If you value your time, money, and basic respect, go anywhere else. This clinic does not deserve your business.
