Well that all changed today when my father convinced me to go for a three week bout of nearly every illness one can get. I was able to book an appointment for the same hour, and the front desk was super flexible when I was running late. Once I arrived, I was taken in within 2 mins and brought to a clean, private space. Aidan was amazing and truly took the time listen, ask follow-up questions, and let me know what to expect for the remainder of the visit. He is a gem and his personality helped make me feel comfortable and taken care of. Dr. Gold took the time to go through my history, every single noted symptom as well as some I hadn't even mentioned. He took his time with the physical exam, even double checking and making sure not to miss anything. They ran a rapid strep, flu, and Covid test as well as a chest x-ray on-site, with the results given within 10 minutes. My only regret is waiting as long as I did to be seen because, unfortunately, there was nothing they could treat me for. I will not hesitate to return in the future.

On this most recent visit, I went in for…read morethe flu with wheezing (history of asthma) and was given 4 days of prednisone at 50mg once a day, including the day I was there, making the round of meds 5 days. I didn't know 50mg was a high dose. I have only ever had 10mg, but thought they must know best, so I stayed on it and on day three, my blood pressure dropped like a stone and I had to call 911. I was cleared by the EMTs but it was a scary moment. They told me the dosage was too high for the average person. The moral is to always ask about the medication - if they had checked my MyChart, they would have seen what my typical dosage is for when I get sick. I shouldn't have assumed, but I feel like they are at fault too for not being more thorough. The visit was rushed. I was in and out in 20 minutes!

The office in Maynard was fast, clean, friendly and efficient. As new patients we were registered and in a room within 5 minutes. The back room is set up similar to an ER with the doctor/ nurses station in the middle and all the patients' rooms in a larger square surrounding it. X-Rays were taken right across the hall. The doctors were able to confer with our orthopedist and pediatrician. The staff was excellent! Friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend going here.

I was seen right away by a very professional nurse & my vitals were taken & she inquired about the reason for my visit. The doctor sent me in for an X-ray prior to seeing me. Dr McDonald then explained he didn't see any major injury but after questioning me, was concerned about a possible blood clot. He then referred me to the ER to rule out this possibility of a blood clot & further suggested I see an orthopedist for the knee pain From beginning to end the care I received was thorough & professional. Great Urgent Care experience!

After the vaginal birth of my first daughter in Brazil, I developed panic disorder. What should…read morehave been one of the happiest moments of my life became the beginning of a very difficult emotional journey. From that experience, childbirth became something that brought fear, anxiety, and deep emotional distress. During my second pregnancy, even though I had an amazing medical team and delivered by C-section, I was extremely worried. My second daughter was born with some genetic anomalies, which at that time caused me intense anxiety, fear, and despair. Thank God, today those anomalies do not affect her life in any way -- truly a miracle from God -- but in that moment, it was emotionally overwhelming. This current pregnancy came as a surprise, and it was filled with challenges, discomfort, and many difficult days. However, I was blessed to be followed so closely by the wonderful AFA team at Emerson Hospital in Concord. They always respected my emotional condition and supported me with compassion, patience, and understanding. When the day of my C-section arrived, I was met with a team that completely changed my story. I want to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Letner, the nurses, the nursing technicians, the anesthesiologist, and every member of the hospital staff. From the cleaning staff, to the people who brought my meals, to everyone who cared for Bella and for me -- I will be forever thankful. You rewrote my maternity story. Today, I can honestly say that I experienced a birth that I can remember without emotional pain. I felt safe. I felt cared for. I felt respected. I am grateful to God for each of you -- for every medication given, every blood pressure check done with such care, every kind word, every gentle action. Thank you for your love, your dedication, and your humanity. May God bless each one of you and your families abundantly. With all my gratitude, Karen Aciole de Oliveira Silva

Room service was quick to arrive and delicious. My favorite part of the stay was when nutrition came by with a cart of delicious sweets and fruit.
