I wish I could do two separate reviews. I give a 5 to the labs and the radiology people and would…read morelove to give a 0 to the ER. So the labs and the radiology check in processed and procedures are handled very well and very professionally. They generally run on time and observe privacy. The waiting areas are clean. Now let's talk about the ER. I came in by ambulance with an intestinal blockage. They put me SITTING UP in the waiting room (which has no security and smelled like cigarette smoke and marijuana). The sitting up position caused already terribly pain to become much worse. Finally, I was taken to the ER and given a comfortable clean room. The nurses were quite professional and kind (OK, the nurses get 5 stars), so I guess I would give the ER 1 star for that. It's diverticulitis and I know this because it's happened before but they run all of the tests needed to make sure. That's fine and good. Before that the doctor has them put morphine into my IV line even though I specifically asked for no opioid pain medication. So, ended up all woozy from that and then she gives me an antibiotic called Cipro (after the tests come back) without talking to me about any of the possible side effects or anything. She prescribed me more pain killers and more Cipro and send me home. My husband got all of the prescriptions and dropped the pain killers in the bin at Walmart. The Cipro gave me terrible hives and tinnitus. So, the diverticulitis is now cleared. The hives have cleared but I'm left hearing what sounds like peeps constantly. I should have been warned. I should have asked, but I should have been warned. I won't let my guard down again. One more thing. There are safer alternatives and medical guidelines now emphasize avoiding fluoroquinolones when safer alternatives exist. I guess the doctor didn't go to that class.

The Belmont location was incredible from start to finish, I sped up the process by completing a form online, waited for less than 10 minutes in a spacious, socially distance-able waiting room, and was met with a smile (through their masks ) every step of the way. Affordable & easy even without insurance. Not only that but I was treated by a DO, who was clearly very knowledgeable in many areas including gyno. Thank you so much to all the Health Care PROFESSIONALS at this location, and across the US, for continuing to provide the best service during this pandemic.

Just make people wait long enough, they will get frustrated and leave. Don't bother going to the Concord Hospital ER if you need help. Drive to Boston. You will get seen quicker.

She had seen a dentist earlier and had x rays taken but nothing was revealed.

He also said the first weekday, an ENT doctor will be referred for a visit. I was pleased with the care and most importantly, the quick diagnosis Joe reached. Since we are snowbirds, our primary doctors are South and I would recommend this establishment if in a pinch. Addendum: Joe diagnosed the source and prescribed an effective antibiotic but we never heard back with an ENT referral.

I got to the emergency room at 8pm with excruciating ankle pain and was given about 2 minutes with the doctor to express my concerns. The receptionist was somewhat friendly but the nurse who was completely unprofessional and rushed through everything so as he kindly mentioned he could finish his shift so he could go to bed. Then the doctor came in a was EXTREMELY rough when he was examing my foot which put me in additional pain. When I mentioned it to another staff member her response was "Well, did you kick him with your good foot? That's what I would've done!". My concerns were not taken seriously in any matter and I felt humiliated for speaking up. I got into an exam room within 10 minutes however we waited for 3 hours for the doctor to blurt out basic first aid at us and to ask me if I wanted crutches just to be interrupted in the middle of our conversations with other things going on. I was sent home with an ace wrap and a couple hundred bucks poorer...

I get that the have to take the more important patients first but seriously the lack of support they have there is insane , instead of bringing me back into an actually hospital bed room I was sat in a triage , and I know they had rooms because I saw atleast 4 kids being put in a hospital room while I sat there uncomfortably at 1:00 am not being seen in time I ended up leaving because my pain was so bad and at this point it was already 2:00 am and wasn't seen at all yet , this place fucking sucks and I recommend that you just stay home from you're pain instead of going to the emergency room where you won't be cared for at all .
