Unless your work makes you go here, DONT! I have worked in healthcare for over 7 years and now teach it. Here is why:
I went here on my own and paid my own money to get a physical exam required of me by the state every 2 years. I should have read the negative reviews, because I now feel they are very accurate.
1 week before coming here I called to try and schedule an appointment. I couldn't get ahold of anyone so I left a voice mail that was never returned. I decided to go ahead and walk in. This first time wasn't a bad experience. I waited about 30mins, but as a walk in I expected that. The staff was very nice and straight forward. After taking a drug test I sat in a room for about 20mins before the staff informed me that the DR went home on an emergency. NO PROBLEM! life happens, right? So they scheduled me the next morning.
Unfortunately, my son got sick that night so I had to reschedule. I called and yet again could not get ahold of anyone and left a message. I waited 1 day this time and since I didnt get a call back, I walked in again. This time they wanted me to re-fill out the same paperwork I already did, had me a little upset, but it is what it is. Luckily, before I started they where able to convince the doctor to just use my old paperwork. Awesome. Shouldn't be long now right?
Well I waited an additional 45 mins in the waiting room. People coming and going. I get it, they probably had appointments. Still, a little frustrating, but again...it is what it is. Finally I get my name called. They place me in a room, give me the "Doctor will see you shortly speech" and leave. 45 more mins pass. I am late for other obligations at this point and much more irritated, so I open the door and ask why I am waiting so long. They tell me OH, the doctor is right here for you. Well i feel a little bad now that I asked that, but I was really trying to be patient.
Now for the worst part! The Doctor starts insulting me with comments like, "guess where you have to be is more important that the injuries of other people." and "Oh you've been waiting for almost 2 hours? Well ive been here since 7am." Are you serious right now? At first I didnt catch that he was being pompous, but when I realized he was after the 3rd or 4th comments he kept making, I said " nevermind, Ill go to the front desk and get my money back if youre going to act this way". So he looked at my chart and says, "Oh you're a cash payer?" Now his tone has changed and he is my best friend! Took him literally less than 1 minute to do my exam and sign me off.....
Don't go here. You think healthcare sucks in regular life, dont even give this place a try. Take 2 minutes and google ANYWHERE else and try your luck there, its probably cheaper. In fact this was the most expensive visit of all the places I looked up, but I was crunched for time and was closer to my work.
Also, Read my other reviews, I do not come on here to vent. I try to write fair and clear reviews about my experiences. Could this just be another wrong place, wrong time kind of review? Sure, maybe. However, I have had minimum good interactions with this place since I started nearly 2 weeks ago. That says a lot coming from a guy who works in healthcare! read more
