Thank You to Erika transition nurse at Dr .Dlugosz Office…read more We had a wonderful experience with Erika, the transition nurse from High Gate Medical. Having met and worked with many people in the medical field over the years, we can honestly say that Erika stands out. She is compassionate, empathetic, extremely knowledgeable, and most importantly she truly listens. She made us feel heard, supported, and cared for throughout the process. High Gate Medical is blessed to have such a dedicated individual on its team. Erika is clearly in the right profession because she puts her whole heart into caring for people. Thank you, Erika, for the kindness, professionalism, and genuine concern you showed our family. We truly appreciate you. Gina Genua

When she is with your all her focus is on you and the issues at hand. None of that talking to you while running out the door. Secondly, she doesn't over prescribe.

Dr. Lane truly cares for her patients individually. I am so glad l found her and am in her practice. (Also, scheduling is a breeze and there is very little wait time before you're taken in.)

My mom has been seeing Dr Daniel Morelli at UBMD Family Medicine for many years. I accompany to her…read moreto these visits because she is elderly. I have always found Dr Morelli to be a fantastic listener. He is thorough and answers all Mom's and my questions until he is certain we understand. To my recollection, there has never been a long wait while getting in to see the doctor. The waiting room is large and comfortable, but I've never seen more than a couple other people in there. I don't think we've ever waited longer than three minutes ourselves. Once we are taken back to the examination room, the wait is also very short. I was torn between a 4 and a 5, and there are no half stars on Yelp, so just know this is more of a 4.5. The only reason I take a portion away is because until very recently, it's been super difficult to get someone on the phone. We've always had to leave a message, but very recently, I've gotten someone every time I've called. I don't know if that's luck or if they've hired more people or changed some of their practices regarding incoming calls. Just know, you may have to leave a message and wait for a return call. My mom typically would have to drive over to their office to ask whatever question she has or to make an appointment. (Granted, she's 87 and is not only less patient than she used to be, she also struggles with the phone menu. Switching screens on her phone is a foreign idea to her, and she never really knows which number to press even if she somehow accidentally finds the keyboard screen.) Dr. Morelli's staff has also been extremely helpful to me when I've needed it, and shows they truly care about the patients.

I've been a UBMD patient for 10+ years, and unfortunately the communication has gotten worse over…read moretime. I never received a call back about a work letter I requested months ago, and last year I even ended up leaving two separate appointments because the doctor took over an hour to see me. Recently, I went in for my yearly physical and left feeling frustrated, confused, and honestly shocked by the whole experience. I waited about 45 minutes, saw a student first, and then the doctor spent maybe five minutes with me. During that time she briefly mentioned something called a "Brook program," but didn't explain what it was. At the end of the appointment, she walked me into another room and told Russell (I'm still not sure of his title), right in front of me, that I was "very interested," even though I had no idea what the program even involved. Russell gave a very vague explanation of the program, and when I asked for more details, the only response I received was, "They'll call you to see what you qualify for." I still don't know who "they" are or what the program actually entails. Despite that, he immediately asked if I wanted to sign up for "the whole shabang." I was also told that if I wanted to enroll later, I should text him directly because he blocks incoming calls, which didn't sit right with me at all. What made this even more unsettling is that months ago I received a completely random call saying my doctor had "sent a script" for this exact program- something I had never discussed with anyone. At the time, I genuinely thought it was a scam call because nothing about it made sense. The entire encounter felt less like healthcare and more like someone trying to sell me something. I can't emphasize enough how much it felt like being upsold at a car dealership rather than speaking with medical professionals I've trusted for over a decade. The pressure, the lack of information, and the way I was shuffled around made me seriously question why this program was being pushed so hard. It definitely made me wonder if there is some sort of incentive or partnership tied to it, because nothing about the experience felt patient-centered or transparent. What concerns me most is how easily an older or less tech-savvy patient could be talked into signing up for something they don't understand. If I walked out feeling confused and pressured, I can only imagine how someone more vulnerable might feel. After more than a decade with this practice, this experience made it very clear- it was time for me to switch providers. I went to a new doctor today, and the difference was night and day. I was seen and out within 30 minutes and had a simple, straightforward conversation about my health. No vague programs, no pressure to sign up for anything- just a normal doctor-patient visit. It was honestly a reminder of what healthcare should feel like.

In my previous review, I mentioned Dr. Felstead being a wonderful doctor. While that probably…read moreremains true today, I am less than pleased with the office staff. After remaining on hold for nearly 15 minutes, I was greeted before asking to schedule an appointment with Dr. Felstead. I explained to the girl (I think her name was Michelle) that I needed to make an appointment but I would probably be considered a new patient. I have been out of state for the past few years trying to help a sick relative. She advised me that my account was inactive and placed me on hold. When she came back to the line, she tells me that in 2007 I told the staff I was going to be seeing a new doctor and they can no longer see me. I told her that was not the case. I explained that I moved to Texas to help family out and that I never transferred care or told their staff that I was doing so. I pleaded with her to try to schedule an appointment. After several minutes of pleading and arguing, she placed me on hold again to speak with the office manager. When she came back on the line she told me that I had 3 cancellations and per their policy, Dr. Felstead cannot see me. I explained that the "cancellations/reschedules" happened more than 5 years ago. She just kept repeating "that's our policy." I asked to speak with the office manager but was not allowed to speak to her. I asked if there was any way for them to ask Dr. Felstead if he would see me. She just kept telling me I broke their policy and would not be seen. When asked if Dr. Felstead could give me a referral to another PCP, she told me they won't refer to other PCP's. I ended the phone calls in tears-this was truly surprising and upsetting. And if I had been able to see the doctor, he would have told me my blood pressure is through the roof. I trust Dr. Felstead and value his medical opinion. It's so difficult to find a great doctor which is why I wanted a referral if I could not see him. My updated review only contains 2 stars because having a good doctor is not worth having to deal with a staff who's falling apart, arguing with patients and who lacks sympathy or compassion.
