I've been coming here for three years now. I am very happy with the care I get, the attentiveness…read moreand the ease of making appts. I read the review that complained it took too long to get an appt. The practice is popular and it does take a while to get in as a new patient. My first appt was 53 weeks in advance. Yes - a year and a week. Go ahead and accept it then ask to get on a cancellation list. They called me in after 5 months and I've been here since. Dr Anthony has a stellar rep and I really wanted to get in his practice. With their guidance and medications I took my A1c from 8-9 to 5.6 my last test a couple weeks ago. I've lost about 30lbs and feel better than I have in a long time. They offered me an appt for dietary guidance and it was very helpful. I had been diagnosed 18 years by then but I learned some good info in that class. I've never had any difficulty with any staff; they've all been as sweet as pie. Once I didn't have the right amount to pay my bill (self pay) and they let me run down to the kwickie mart and buy a snack to get change. I told them I liked it there and sure wasn't going to run off and lose my place in the practice for $90. No way!! If you are looking for an endocrinologist don't hesitate to visit Endocrinology of Athens. I'm very satisfied with the care I get.

I do not recommend this practice. I was calling into their office regarding a referral I had from…read moremy GP. Marie, made the entire experience indescribably unprofessional and horrible. This lady is very old school, rude, and obviously believes she can treat people bad, and go on about her day. From the moment that she answered to the moment I explained to her I would be reporting her behavior, she had a carefree attitude. She said they do not have appointments available for 7 months, and said I needed to call my doctor. I did call my GP, and matter of fact I asked them to please never refer any of their patients to them. I now have an appt in April with another doctor, and Patrick that doctors office manager was A++. This doctor needs to immediately take control of his office, or his reputation will go down fast no matter his skill set. This practice is 3/4 of a mile from me, but I'll gladly drive to Prince Avenue in Athens now. Our family backs St. Mary's group 100%, but they have to step it up.

He doesn't seem to care about the actual health of the patients, leaves early most days and doesn't try to understand the issues presented or come up with solutions like a doctor is paid to do. He just asks what the patient thinks they need and writes something up. I had to actually self diagnose and figure it out for myself. The rest of the staff is great and so sweet, so it's a shame they have to work for a man who just doesn't seem to care about his patients. Just do yourself a favor and go somewhere else unless you know exactly what you need.
