This is the 3rd time (in 3 years) I had to pick a different Primary Care doctor because the…read moreprevious ones left this facility. Now, there is no one can prescribe my daily Thyroid medications. Last time I saw my doctor was in May 2023. Then he left the facility and I immediately made an appointment with a new doctor. The closest option was March 2024, so I picked that date. Now, I ran out my daily meds already, and they refuse to prescribe them before seeing a new doctor. I have to take my Thyroid meds every day and they supposed to prescribe it until my annual check up. They do no care about patient care. I do not recommend this place.

The Lab technician I saw today was not friendly, and announced my name incorrectly so I didn't…read morerealize she was calling me. I asked for confirmation and she only repeated my first name, which still did not sound correct. Upon being taken back to get my labs done she asked which arm I preferred. I wasn't sure and took about 5 seconds or less to think and she told me to "hurry up and pick one - there are people waiting to get their labs done in the waiting room". I was taken aback and so surprised by the rudeness I could only stare back and was barely able to get out "the right arm". She was wearing a mask and it was hard to understand her without seeing her face, but I could tell she never smiled with her eyes. The taking of the labs which is usually no big deal was replaced by a very painful experience. I've never hurt that badly before when taking labs. My arm is very sore and bruised. The first letter of my last name on the vial was covered up, so when trying to confirm it was correct I had to confirm but pointed out that part of my name was covered up and unreadable. I left feeling disappointed and saddened that someone would treat a patient this way. It may seem like a small thing, but for whatever reason it made me feel bad and makes me not want to return for fear of having the same person with the same experience.

Dr. Mark Lambrechts, MD is truly an outstanding Orthopedic Spine Surgeon. During my first visit I…read morefound him to be very professional, warm, caring, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and thorough in his responses to my concerns. I read other reviews posted online regarding Dr. Lambrechts prior to selecting him for consultation/opinion. He overwhelmingly received 5 Star Ratings in other reviews. I found those reviews to be consistent with my interaction with him during my visit. Dr. Lambrechts discussed future procedures and tests with me; and provided an overall explanation of the health of my spine. Moreover, I found him to be an excellent listener/doer and cared about his patients. Dr. Lambrechts is a role model to others in the medical field. I was at my wits end regarding serious concerns/issues still lingering for nearly two years ago. He provided me with hope and a positive outlook on my physical and mental health, and a sense of calm. He is truly a jewel. I would recommend him to others seeking not just an Orthopedic Spine Surgeon but one you would respect for going above and beyond in administering care. Kudos, Dr. Lambrechts, MD!!! Kimberly B.

Dr Farhan Katchi, a…read morecardiologist with Wash U-St Louis, saw that I had stopped seeing a cardiologist in another health system. He threw his pen on the counter, whirled around and asked why I stopped seeing the other doctor. I started telling him about some things that had happened that really upset me. He kept interrupting me to defend the other doctor, and was argumentative to the point I couldn't even tell him what happened. He invalidated my feelings, invalidated me as a patient and invalidated me as a person. During the rest of the appt he made unnecessary rude remarks. That was one of the worst Dr appts I've ever had. I will never return. I don't recommend anyone see him. He's the sort of Dr you should avoid

The wait to get my blood drawn was less than a few seconds, so I appreciated the timeliness of the appointment. What I didn't care for was the condition of the office building-super run down. The exam room looked like it was from the 1900s. The cart that they used to put all the bloodwork stuff on was rusty. Also, the receptionist was wearing jeans, tennis shoes, and a hoodie. I thought that was totally unacceptable for a professional setting.

The ex has ADHD and is treated for it, but his dosage is incorrect and continually increased to the point where he talks a mile a minute and is high as a kite every day. He also consumes 4-6 cups of coffee per day plus daily coke (soft drink), which I'm sure that he neglects to mention to the Dr. His addiction to adrenaline is a real thing, which the family and I must deal with every day! I would suggest that the physician delve a little deeper rather than just hand out pills. The effects of being improperly medicated are the responsibilty of the presciber.

I've been using TAUC for several years now and for several reasons…read more Firstly, they're affordable, regardless which kind of insurance I was carrying (or none at all) they discount their services and only request payment if you have a copay. After that, they'll work with you on paying your invoices. Secondly, and a near tie to the firstly, despite or in spite of the affordability, all the locations, this one included, offer EXCEPTIONAL CARE with nurses, physicians, and technologists who want to help you get better and put their patients first. It's also quite clean. Not hospital clean, cleaner! I've been to hospitals and other urgent cares before where I thought about whether I'd get more sick by being there. Not at any of the TAUC that I've utilized. Another advantage to TAUC, this location I know, not sure if it's true for all of them, they have X-ray, CT, blood and urine testing, all the amenities of an ER without the tired, rushed docs and nurses and without the huge scary bill. You can honestly come here for anything from cold and flu to broken bones to I don't know what's wrong with me. Summary- if you need urgent care, go where they care. Affordable, professional, and close to your home. Ya I sound like a commercial, but this is why I'm loyal to this urgent care chain.

I chose this urgent care because of the excellent reviews, which makes my experience even more…read moredisappointing. When I arrived, I explained that it felt like something was stuck in my throat or airway. I was told - verbatim - that they "wouldn't touch me with a 10-foot pole." That was shocking and unprofessional. Instead of evaluating me, they immediately directed me to the ER. The ER visit ended up costing me $800, where I waited about two hours only to be prescribed amoxicillin - something the urgent care could have easily done themselves. Later, when I saw an ENT, I was told my symptoms were due to acid reflux. My symptoms had already been present for three days, so it clearly was not an emergency airway obstruction. It's frustrating that neither the urgent care nor the ER considered reflux as a possibility before escalating the situation. Being told they "didn't want to take my money" feels ironic, considering I was sent somewhere significantly more expensive for essentially the same level of care. I would not recommend this facility. Patients deserve to feel evaluated and respected - not dismissed.

Dr. Rutledge was my doctor during my first pregnancy, but I rarely saw her throughout my pregnancy. I was induced at 37 weeks and ultimately spent 72 hours in labor. During that time, Dr. Rutledge went out of town. After 72 hours of labor, I was told that my doctor was unavailable and that an ER doctor would be delivering my baby via C-section. Thankfully, Dr. Lucco was there for me. She had seen me for much of my pregnancy, and when I asked for her to deliver my baby, she came in even though she was not scheduled to be at the hospital to deliver a child. She came ready to serve, support me, and make sure I felt cared for during what was an incredibly difficult and vulnerable experience. I will never forget Dr. Lucco's compassion, care, and support. Her presence meant so much to me, and I still think about her to this day. Dr. Lucco is a PHENOMENAL WOMAN and a GREAT PHYSICIAN. I am forever grateful that she showed up for me when I needed someone in my corner.

If I could give zero stars, I would. I saw Cassandra Johnson and this was honestly the worst…read moreexperience I've ever had with a medical professional. The purpose of my visit was because I've been experiencing symptoms of perimenopause for the last 2 years and over the past year they've started to get worse. When I mentioned some of my symptoms to her, she completely dismissed my concerns and told me "Feeling hot all the time isn't a symptom of perimenopause." She also told me my PCP was full of for sending me to an obgyn and that I should go back to my PCP to address my concerns. The only bloodwork she ordered was to check my thyroid levels (which were normal). She used coded language to fat shame me by telling me I needed to "make lifestyle changes." She also suggested I try magnesium and get on an antidepressant, but failed to look at my medical history and see that I'm already taking an antidepressant. Do not visit this practice, especially not Ms. Johnson, if you are experiencing symptoms of perimenopause or menopause, as you will not be taken seriously.

It is sad how dirty the "cleaning" of the facility results in new health concerns. Every doctor walks in as a general hospital doctor and usually the first words out of their mouth is we will be moving forward to PT rehab BEFORE assessing the complete issue with the patient. The last straw was when my husband was 2 days away from discharge. SOMEONE turned his bed alarm OFF. He fell and broke his hip. Now we are going backwards to try to get him stabilized to be released for PT rehab. When he was complete with hip surgery it took 8hrs for them to move him to a bed. I sat at the family waiting room ON the floor he was assigned and watched 45-60 min NOTHING going on to proceed with room readiness. 8 hrs after his surgery he is given a room. It will take 12 more hrs to get a water cup with a straw. After I requested it 3 times the first night and 2 times in the morning. Sad what used to be a premiere hospital fall below average trauma hospitals. BJC should be investigated for cleanliness, proper care of patients, and COMMON courtesy!
