Waiting area
Willy K.

Currently waiting here due to food poisoning from dinner at Sax on 4/20/19. Waited over an hour for wife to get her vitals checked, then she came out and we are now waiting for a room to open up. We did not have an appt, came and signed in. Waiting area seems clean and organized, receptionists seem nice and personable. Think this location used to be a blockbuster years back, but many shops next door like sweet frog, papa john, H mart, etc.

Cost for simple uti without insurance $233 plus $156 from another lab.

I go in for a recurring Uti simple right! No, I don't have insurance so I Signed up for star pass and was told it would only be $180 and it would've been more if I paid for care individually. So I paid the $180, Then I am told that they have to send out urine for further tests that would only be $60. I get a bill for $156 far from $60. So I thought that was the end of it but then I get a bill from them that I owe $53 more! Really, just be honest with people about the cost! That's all! Just avoid this place!

I almost forgot- last time I was there- the room I was taken to and treated in was still dirty. Gross. This was on 11/19- why did I go back?

I've been going to Holy Cross Health Partners (HCHP) for years and never had a bad experience. My…read morerecent visit was with Mrs Jolly Joseph NP, and she was very thorough with my yearly Wellness check. I haven't been feeling well, so she did numerous tests to find out what's going on. Jolly Joseph's was amazing with the quality care I got, she listened actively to all I had to say. She was compassionate, kind, caring, and very concerned and determined to find out what's going on inside me. I felt safe and in good hands. The type of care I got was top notch, and I will continue going to see her. I got an appointment quickly, within a week. The check in was quick, only had to wait 5 minutes, I just had to fill out some paperwork. I highly recommend HCHP.

We have loved having her as our health care provider. She is very knowledgeable and personable. My husband loves how caring and kind she is. As a nurse myself, I can say that Miss McGarvey is a credit to the profession and has always provided comprehensive treatment. I know that she is about to retire at the end of October. We will miss her. I want to wish her the very best in her retirement. She has helped so many and been so caring. Now it is time for her to enjoy doing whatever she pleases when she pleases. Thank you, Mary, for all the years of caring and attention to our health care needs. Stay safe and stay well.

I feel the wait is longer than necessary. On this occasion, I scheduled ahead arrived eight minutes early, checked in, completed all my paperwork and paid my co-pay for my scheduled time.  They provide a waitlist view so I could see there was only one other patient in the office at the time. We saw the patient leave and waited another 20 minutes before I was called back.  On the way to the patient room.  Then I waited another 25-30 minutes before the doctor arrived.  He spent less than 10 minutes with me and told me exactly what I expected and provided a prescription. It just seems an hour is an unexpected amount of time to spend to see a healthcare professional when there are no other patients waiting to be seen.. Last time I visited, I thought it was having a heart attack, and I was still forced to wait over 40 minutes before seeing a doctor.  It seems they may need more staff or improved systems to help expedite the patient follow up documentation. I based this on the fact I passed the fellow who would eventually be my doctor sitting at a desk working on notes I presume, as I was taken back to the patient room to wait. Other than that, though, I do like this practice and will return in the future if necessary.

I had horrible care from the doctors at Kaiser Permanente. The doctors never actually treated me…read morefor my issue. I was repeatedly told cancer statistics for my age group and convinced that I needed unnecessary tests. I had these repeated over and over again. They always came back normal. Every time I went through the horrible testing, I was told if everything came back normal we'd proceed with treatment. That never happened. I kept trying different doctors and they all did the same thing. I was actually told it was their protocol. At one point, I was encouraged to have an unnecessary hysterectomy and the doctors told me to go on YouTube to research what to expect after surgery. I suspect that they use the word cancer to scare women into unnecessary testing and procedures. I paid for it all out of pocket. I have gotten second opinions and have been told that they can't understand what they were doing to me. I'm fine. I don't need a hysterectomy and I never had cancer. I went through this for 4 1/2 years. I strongly suspect that the doctors at Kaiser are encouraged to scare patients and come up with reasons to do unnecessary testing so they can bill you and make money. I have been traumatized by the doctors at Kaiser and wasted 4 years of my life. Run from Kaiser - it's terrible!!!

Big fire there today!…read more KENSINGTON, Md. (DC News Now) -- A firefighter was taken to the hospital, and over a dozen people were evaluated after a fire broke out at the Kensington Healthcare Center on Wednesday night. Details are limited; however, the Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service (MCFRS) was dispatched to the center on McComas Avenue for an automatic fire alarm. Once on the scene, firefighters located the blaze in a patient's room, where a mattress had caught fire. Officials said that 13 people were evaluated at the scene, and one firefighter was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Peter Piringer with the MCFRS noted that rooms were affected by the fire, and some had water damage. As a result, several patients were relocated to different rooms in the building. Nearly 60 firefighters responded to the scene as temperatures remained in the teens Wednesday night. The cause remains under investigation.

I had no knowledge of this place but I thought since it was in Kensington it would probably be ok. Well it wasn't. From the moment I was brought in on a stretcher from the hospital I immediately smelled cigarette smoke. I saw many ceiling tiles were missing with wires hanging down. I saw residents who looked like they weren't being taken care of properly. Then I was brought into my frozen room and put on the bed. I waited more than 30 minutes before a member of the staff came to see me. Finally my spouse came and all of a sudden a nurse appeared. I asked her some questions about my care and her answers were inadequate. They definitely weren't going to be able to give me the care I deserved. Then they started telling little lies to my spouse. I was barely there for about 2 hours before I realized this was not the place for me. I called 911 to come take me back to the hospital. When the paramedics arrived they asked to see my medical records and the staff told them no. They told the staff that the medical records were mine and they still said no. So I asked them for my medical records to give to the paramedics and they still said no. Can you believe it? They wouldn't let me have my own medical records??? I am sure they are going to try to bill my health insurance for lots of things even though I was only there for a little over 2 hours. Avoid this place like the plague. I can't believe such a place like this exists in Montgomery county MD. They should be shut down!

Our daughter came home from daycare with symptoms of an ear infection and we didn't want to wait to go to her regular pediatrician the next day. I was able to book an appointment online very quickly for later that evening. Parking was very easy and the waiting area was clean and uncrowded. My daughter was seen by a nurse practitioner who quickly confirmed the infection and sent a prescription to be picked up at the CVS across the street. We've been back a couple of times since and have had similar experiences. If you have a need for pediatric care outside of our regular pediatrician offices, this beats an ER by quite a bit, especially for small things. It is what it should be, and it's now in our medical provider short list.

We even visited another doctor prior to visiting Dr. Gattu, but the prescribed meds didn't make any difference. Dr. Gattu was very thorough with his examination, extremely patient, and had absolutely wonderful approach with our son. Not only his examination and expertise were on point, but he made sure to educate us on our son's condition, and walked us through the next steps of his treatement. Everything happened the way he said it will. A nurse practitioner from the office followed up with us two days later, to nake sure everything went by the plan. Tomorrow is our telehealth visit. We can't ask for better health service. Thank you Express Pediatrics!
