Bonnie took care of my daughter and was super competent and explained each step to us. Also, Jackie at the front desk reassured us and told us they would keep the cost down as much as possible.

Especially in this time when so many of us have high deductible insurance plans, or no insurance, I really appreciated their transparency.

Don't let the beautiful, modern office deceive you. I came in after slicing my finger open and left…read moreextremely disappointed with the care I received. I've had a very similar cut treated at another urgent care before, where Dermabond was applied successfully to close the wound. I also work in healthcare and have seen Dermabond administered properly many times. Unfortunately, my experience with Carmelia Petch, PA, was completely different. During the application, her hands were noticeably shaky, and the Dermabond was applied messily, leaving purple adhesive across my thumb and hand while parts of the actual incision appeared inadequately covered. Very little of the adhesive was used, and I left feeling as though the wound itself had not been properly secured--the entire reason I came in. Given the location in Westlake and the appearance of such a beautiful, modern facility, I expected a much higher standard of care. The front desk staff was very nice, but I was incredibly disappointed with the treatment I received from this particular PA. It felt like a complete waste of my time and money, and I would not feel comfortable having her treat a similar injury again.

Everyone from the front desk to the imaging area was so kind, helpful and knowledgeable. The nurses were thorough, professional, and caring. The radiology tech was one of the nicest people I've met in a minute! The doctor actually spoke to me like a real person. This was in stark contrast to the CareNow clinic I visited earlier in the day wherein the doc stared at his computer screen as he typed the whole time he was in the room with me. At Ally, the doc had a conversation and let me have a voice in my care plan. She actually seemed like she cared about what was going on with me even though we didn't really figure it out. She made she I was safe to go about life and try to figure it out with my pcp, which was all I needed. I had seen the Ally logo around but didn't know what it was.

I was sent to a Walgreens 6 miles away and was told that was the only one open. I get there and the pharmacy is closed. I call back to MedSpring and speak to a male who told me I was at the wrong Walgreens and sent me to another one 2 miles down the street. He then said "the address is on your paperwork" and I said what paperwork, I went to the front and asked the girl and she said the prescription was sent over and I didn't need anything else. I get to the new location (walgreens) and was told they don't have my prescription. Now I'm frustrated. I call back to MedSpring and a lady answered and told me that my profile shows they sent my prescription to a CVS?!?! Beyond annoyed. Story gets better, I call back MedSpring and they said they are sending the prescription to Walgreens. Walgreens said that the prescription was sent to cvs and since they are closed, they can't transfer the prescription to bill my insurance so I'll have to pay out of pocket.

i've gone to this urgent care over the years. the wait time varies but is often long…read more I appreciate being able to email them my health history and medication list, as both are long & complex. I think my doing that may be why the Dr who saw me took me seriously, (i saw he had printed out my health history and had highlighted things in it) and spent more time with me than others have. I was super anxious, wayyyyg overtired, and experiencing very intense restless leg (and other parts of my body) syndrome with many forceful spasms, all my muscles in my body were tightly clenched and i couldn't get them to relax and I was also in a lot of pain (this was due to a recent medication change, and my having a bad reaction to it), which I told them. So, at first I was disappointed because Dr. Joe told me that they couldn't give me muscle relaxers bc they would amplify the effects of the drug i was on that I was badly reacting to, so I felt like crying because i didn't know what to do, how to get help. Dr. Joe recommended I go back to my original dosage of the medication, and took the time to show me stretches i could do, and recommended that I take pedialyte or coconut water, and use arnica cream. i followed his advice, got the arnica tablets for leg cramps (i took 6) and the arnica cream for arthritic relief, which i rubbed all over myself. i drank coconut water and went back to my usual dosage of the medication, and did stretches and doing these things worked; got a full 8 hrs of sleep and only had a few leg spasms the whole night! my muscles feel relaxed now, and I am super grateful for that. I appreciate Dr. Joe listening and taking me seriously and recommending all he did, bc i am now back to my normal level of poor health, which is so much less bad than it was before Dr. Joe's help. Emailing health histories and med lists really may have made the difference here, i'm always going to do that in the future. Their email: occmed.pr@texasmedclinic.com

I've received nothing short of the best quality care here and am so thankful for it's existence! Their hours of operation are wonderful and really easy for busy working people.

5/5 Experience at CareNow Urgent Care in Austin…read more While visiting Austin for a bachelorette trip, I had a bit of an unexpected accident at the lake. I accidentally kicked a (thankfully off) boat propeller while swimming and ended up with a pretty deep laceration on my right foot. As soon as I could, I made my way to CareNow Urgent Care; and I'm so grateful I did. From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly helpful. The receptionist quickly got me checked in and even looked up my insurance from California. Although I'll need to submit the bill myself, they gave me all the information I needed to request an itemized receipt right away, which made the process much easier. Dr. Estela Mota Garcia took care of me, and she was absolutely wonderful. She was kind, attentive, and gentle throughout the procedure. She made sure my foot was completely numb before stitching it up. I was also given a tetanus shot since I wasn't up to date, and they prescribed me an antibiotic to pick up the same day; which gave me peace of mind as I continued my trip. No one wants to end up in urgent care, especially on vacation, but this visit was efficient, compassionate, and left me feeling genuinely cared for. Thank you to everyone at CareNow for turning an unfortunate moment into a positive experience. Until next time, Austin!
