    Unquestionably the most thorough new patient evaluation I've experienced in 60+ years…read more My appointment was with the nurse practitioner, who unfortunately had the flu, but Dr. Smiddy worked me into his schedule the same day. Dr. Smiddy spent more than 30 minutes, one on one, going over my medical history and was steadfast in his pursuit of details regarding my health. He's also a bit of a rare find in that he possesses a very keen sense of listening. Furthermore, while the results of my bloodwork were good and unloaded into the patient's portal the following morning, Dr. Smiddy had an associate call me just to reassure me that everything was fine, which is a courtesy I've not experienced since patient records were put online. Highly recommended.

    The front office staff is not professional. They do not identify themselves by name when answering…read morethe inbound calls to the office so you will not know who is talking to you unless you ask them for their name. When requesting any help with medication refills over the phone, they will read a script to contact the pharmacy again to have them send over the request to get the refill and not allow you to speak to a nurse or doctor. They will not admit any errors or mistakes. Their webpage states, https://druidhillsprimarycare.com/coming-soon for Prescription information, This Page is Under Construction. When you have any additional questions for the doctors, you must make an appointment with the doctor as they will not call you. I am no longer a patient at this office after several years of issues with them as they were unwilling to realize the front office staff was not helping people.

    I am not sure what happened but the physician's assistant who worked for them for decades just…read moreleft. I am not sure why, but I presume it's because they worked her fingers to the bone, as she was very good with patients and always booked because people loved her. Her workload was huge and, I am sure, overwhelming. Now that she is gone, they have basically kicked her patients to the curb. Just called for a prescription refill and they said you are no longer a patient because we are not seeing her patients! WTF?? So lame. I cannot attest to their worth as doctors but this seems vengeful and sour grapes. Seems there's a better way to resolve your business disputes than taking it out on patients.

    I was pleasantly surprised when I took my mom here for her initial visit. She's on Medicare and…read moreMedicaid, so you normally get some pretty crappy docs, but not this one. He took 1.5 hours to perform a complete examination, listened to past problems, made some referrals and suggested she have some procedures done. I was very pleased by his ability to listen and understand my mom, who suffers from mental illness. I only had to interject a couple of times! He seemed genuinely interested in understanding and healing her many health issues. He was also extremely knowledgeable about prescription medicine, even some of her psychotropic medications! Upon leaving both my mom and I felt utterly relieved to have found such a great doctor. HIGHLY recommended for internal medicine.

    This practice has a lot of great reviews and I want to share my experience in case it helps…read moresomeone. In January 2025 I made an appointment for the earliest new patient appointment, which was in June 2025. I decided to wait for the appointment because I really appreciated the philosophy found on the website and definitely liked the glowing reviews. I had positive interactions with all staff I encountered and the clinic was clean and bright. The provider I met with suspected a new problem/diagnosis and so started a work up with labs and imaging. Clinic staff did follow up with me once labs resulted out and referred me to a specialist. The ordered imaging was performed ~2 weeks after my new patient appt but I never received follow up, from the NP or anyone else at Ponce Primary Care re: the imaging results. It has now been ~3 months since my last communication, specific to my care, with anyone in this office. I decided to reach out to discuss the standard of care, which I felt to be lacking. Dr. Chad Costley did return my call within an hour or so and he did verbalize disappointment with my situation. He assured me that my experience is unfortunately the exception to their typical patient experience. I was informed that the NP I had been assigned to was "only part-time and here less than a month". I did not ever receive any communication from Ponce Primary Care to notify me that my assigned provider was departing or to invite me to call to schedule with another provider for seamless continuity of care. I was told that my imaging results were never sent by the imaging facility I went to and that "this is where the wheels came off". That is absolutely possible but it was also not confirmed to be true at the time of the statement. The report not being in the patient chart does not mean it was never received by the ordering office or sent to the ordering provider. Sometimes things get scanned and assigned incorrectly, or not scanned at all. Lots of possibilities there. To me, that shows a lack of accountability for not holding a supervisory review of a departing provider's caseload/EMR task list and it also fails to consider that an out-of-state fax number associated with the ordering provider could be the problem. I waited 6 months for a new patient appointment and, whatever the circumstances, was lost in the shuffle. I will not be continuing with this practice, although I'm sure they have many satisfied patients as evidenced by their overall rating. My advice if you wish to establish/continue care here: Be able to advocate for yourself and for your own healthcare. Be knowledgeable about when to follow up on your care in case the practice doesn't. If the wait is still 6 months out for a new patient appointment when you try to schedule, do not think an extra special or VIP experience awaits you - realize that they just might be too busy to accept new patients.

    My husband and I have been seeing Brooke since we moved to the area over 3 years ago. We love her!!…read moreShe is kind, compassionate and thorough. I always leave feeling like she has addressed all of my concerns. She always goes above and beyond. It truly makes a difference. The office staff has been friendly and welcoming. We appreciate Ponce Primary Care!!!
