First physicians Group has several doctors working in the practice providing general medical care…read moreand consultations. It's located next to Sarasota memorial hospital. There is a parking garage and also valet parking if you prefer. My appointment with Dr. Shah almost always runs on time. I rate Dr. shah as an excellent doctor. He doesn't rush me and takes the time to do a thorough consultation. The only reason I am not giving five stars is because of how difficult it is to get through to this office on the phones. It can sometimes take over an hour of waiting. They do offer a call back service but if you miss that then you have to start all over again. Given how busy they are and how many doctors they have, they should really employ more people for the phones. It's often quicker to drive there and speak to the front desk than it is to call in.

If Hippocrates actually said "do no harm", Dr. John Yee has developed his own modified version of…read morethe oath. His pledge is to "do great good for those who need you most". Two years ago I spent much of my time moving through life in a wheelchair because of a serious foot injury. I was facing seemingly impossible odds when I met Dr. John Yee. While other physicians had given up on my case, Dr. Yee engaged his unending creative problem-solving skills suggesting unique treatments that resolved my problem and resulted in a much-improved lifestyle. As I began to improve, Dr. Yee suggested that an exercise program would be essential to my regaining strength and balance. He found a gym whose talented owner agreed to work with several of his patients recovering from serious medical issues. Under his direction, five of us we're pushed and challenged and we improved --- and then Covid-19 hit and the gym had to close. Dr. Yee then stepped in and offered to personally teach us martial arts strategies and techniques to continue our recovery using a virtual platform. Dr. Yee now coaches us in strength training, balance strategies and relaxation techniques and we continue to grow physically and mentally. His gentle concern has strengthened our minds, bodies and souls. Because of his concern, I am today a seventy-one-year-old woman, who had never been athletic, exercising 7 days a week, learning taekwondo and feeling stronger than ever. I am proud of myself for never giving up. I know that I owe this new life and confidence to my brilliant, challenging physician / life coach, Dr. John Yee. I will always be grateful to him for making the latter part of my life the best part!

I'm a retired physical therapist. I had an appointment with Dr. Enis Sallam, having randomly picked…read moreher from all the doctors listed. I needed to establish a doctor in Florida as I travel back and forth to another state during the year. I filled out at least 6+ pages of info and history. Upon entering, Dr. Sallam spent 5-10 minutes talking about Savannah Guthrie and her mother's kidnapping. It was uncomfortable trying to steer her away from the conversation. I have a lung issue that is being monitored by my doctor in the other state - I literally had to ask Dr. Sallam to check my lungs. She only checked 6 fields. I couldn't wait to leave. Upon leaving, I mentioned that the only real issue at the moment was that I'd like to lose some more weight. She promptly told me to use my phone to scan the QR code on the wall to get a discount for Ozempic. "Just lose 20 pounds and stop." She said she would call in the prescription. The issue was that I was told by two doctors (primary GP and gynecologist) that I should never go on Ozempic bc of issues with my pancreas and kidney. Dr. Sallam apparently did not read my history or listen to me when I told her of my history. I left and promptly cancelled the prescription vowing I would never go back to her, despite needing a doctor here. My husband saw another doctor in the group recently and had a great appointment and asked him if I could switch to him (I asked my husband to see if I could switch to that doctor) That doctor gave my husband the name of Shelly, the office manager, to switch doctors. I called on 9/16/2026 at around 9 a.m. and was told Shelly was busy with training but would call me back. No call all day. I called back on 9/17/26 and was able to speak with Shelly. She told me I would be unable to switch doctors per the doctor's office policy. I literally begged her to switch doctors. She would not allow me to switch. I questioned the process where a person randomly chooses a doctor from the website and has to keep that doctor for 20+ years without being to change and she continued to say that was the office policy. My husband got on the speaker call and told her we were both leaving the practice. We are moving on. They deserve a one star review. The overall rating for this office is low. Not working with the patient is reprehensible. Expecting a patient to continue with a doctor that they have no confidence in is unbelievable. So if you see a doctor for a period of time and you don't mesh in the treatment plan- you're expected to continue with that doctor because of office policy?? Shelly made no effort to help me. Move on and go elsewhere. I treated my patients far better than this office does.

I pretty much agree with most of these comments here about what poor quality healthcare you get at…read moreintercoastal. I find it hysterical that my endocrinologist Dr Wende Kozlow fired me although I had had enough of the disrespect in mistreatment from them and I was moving on to a better doctor anyway. I tried many times to get them to give me test results when I get blood work or test and it takes minimum of 10 days before they answer you they lie to you and tell you that they don't get the results. I find it hard to believe that Sarasota hospital does not send them the results And only them because two of my other doctors got their results 10 days sooner. They must be on the crap list for Sarasota memorial that they don't get their results because there's no other explanation that they're the only ones that don't get them ever. They don't care about you and your health. Don't ever say something to the effect of "I'm sure the doctor cares more about my health then to let me suffer and not call me back and that got me fired. I didn't accuse them. I said I'm sure you don't want me to suffer. That's a lot different than accusing them of making me suffer, but I got fired which was the best thing that could've ever happened to me don't go there cause you are nothing to them. They don't care about you as a person. I have multiple health problems in desperate need of an endocrinologist and she refers me back to my family doctor that's how much they care! She was a fairly good doctor, but her office staff sucks! They're the ones who made the mess out of this. They're the ones that don't call me back and they are the ones who are very rude all the time! Save you the stress when you when you need a doctor and find a better place than intercoastal!!!! Your office staff can make you or break you in this case they definitely will break you! Not only is this my problem with them, but they asked me to have records sent to them because of my multiple problems. The pile of 9 x 12 records was over a foot high and they shredded them! Came all away from Ohio and they shredded them! Again crappy office staff! A doctor is not supposed to ever destroy records for 10 years but yet they destroyed all the ones that I paid to have sent to them! Cost me a lot of money that's how much they care about you! I can't say enough bad about them. I've had so many bad experiences. All I can say is beware there's so many other better doctors here in this town. Good luck.

She has zero personality, does not listen and outright lied to me about refilling a much needed anti-panic medication during an extremely stressful time for me. At my July 2025 appointment with her (a nearly $500 dollar out-of-pocket visit!) she refused to refill my medication until I had blood tests completed, promising to do so once she got the results. After spending $200 plus for testing, she denied me a second time. I was told I needed yet another appointment even though I had just seen her the month prior. She comes off as bored, uncaring and impatient. She's condescending when asked questions and does not listen to concerns. I don't remember a single time she's made eye contact with me. Nothing that's she's done during my time under her "care" has proven otherwise. She's simply a worker bee for the machine to make them money without a second thought to how much it costs the patient. Do yourself a favor and stay far away from her!

None of this would have happened this quickly with a visit to a typical urgent care. I am forever grateful for his dedication to my health and responsiveness to my needs. Lastly, I also fondly recall being in my optometrist's office and needing information from Precision health's office, and I said "Let me call my doctor" to which the optometrist replied "that will take forever".
