I recently moved to Santa Rosa Beach, FL and was trying to establish a primary care. I booked an…read moreappointment with nurse practitioner Patton, I believe son of MD. He refused to prescribe my anti-depressants that I proved a history of taking for over 20 years (the same dose over 10 years) and wants me to take 225mg, instead of 300mg, my normal dose. A 75 mg decrease in anti-depressants can cause major symptoms including brain zaps. I am completely disgusted that my health is being risked for unknown reasons. Effexor is a non- controlled substance and with proven history decreasing my dose so abruptly will be determental. I do not recommend their care to anyone.

Dr. Rickey Viator is a strange one. Took the grand baby for his first visit and we won't be back…read more After a "well visit", he literally personally kept calling my daughter every hour to follow up on her sons MINOR medical issue. It was to the point that my daughter would look at the phone and not even want to answer. I guess I could be positive and say wow what an amazing doctor to call 4,000 times to check up on an infant he's saw once for a total of 4 minutes. I guess we'll see if he bills the insurance for all those calls? That's the feeling we got because there just didn't seem a reasonable answer as to why he would keep blowing up my daughters phone. His office staff all look and act miserable. His Medical Assistant was acting like she was an MD and that she knew everything about everything. He wasn't recommended by the hospital but he was the only doctor who had appointments open to see a newborn right after birth, so that's where we kinda had to go.

I am not one to write letters but today is noteworthy. First, you are greeted by a receptionist who…read moreclearly dislikes her job and does not care about you. After phoning in and explaining we were from out of town with a sick baby, I gave my insurance info and was given a 4pm appointment. The sick baby and I drove 30 minutes to make our appointment. Upon arrival, we were finally told they could not see us because our insurance, which I had given over the phone, would not be accepted. I said that was fine and that I would just pay for the day's visit in cash. The doctor, Dr Ricky Viator, came out to tell me that he could not see me even then because you can't pay for your visit if you have insurance. I am flabbergasted. I was so confused and amazed. I left. In my haste and disgust, I left the baby's insurance card. I sat in the parking lot calling other places for at least 10 minutes. Dr Smith, from the same practice, was willing to see me as a doctor should. I drove away at least 10 minutes before I realized I'd left the insurance card. Never did the lovely receptionist call me to say I'd left it even though she knew I had a sick baby and was driving 30 minutes away. Dr Viator and his team should be ashamed. * * *

They were not open and there was no one else in the building that I could see. I'm not from the area and I needed a medical professional for my child. If you are going to post something you need to follow it. When they finally opened at 9:00 I was told by the woman at the front desk, "We don't have to post when we will be open. We run our business the way we want to not the way you want us to." It was extremely unprofessional. We will never step foot in this practice again or at least until they can get someone at the front desk that is more enjoyable to work with.

When I called Niceville Family Practice, Mrs. Cindy was so helpful. She got me in on the same day I called. I saw their ARNP (Registered Nurse Practitioner), Kimberly Smith. Mrs. Kimberly was so friendly and helpful. I had a question about a new prescription and even though she wasn't familiar with it, she went and did some research while I waited. She came back with the required tests I would need and had me on my way in no time. I had to return shortly after for a follow up and they got me in so fast and I was back to work in less than an hour. However I did not feel like I was rushed in any way!
