I am a 21 year old student and i have no health insurance.
Well for the past 2 1/2 weeks I have been coughing alot and trying to take care of it on my own, cough medicine, elevated pillows, vicks vapor rub etc. Finally it got so bad i started coughing so hard i almost threw up. Thats when i knew i had to go see a doctor. Well one of my profs and his friend who happens to be a nurse and i met at Plaza Linda (a good Mexican restaurant in Carmel Valley Village) and when i was talking to my profs friend, she told me that Dr. Qamar and his wife see students for only a 30 dollar consultation as long as you bring a student id!!
This is huge for me because i used to go to Urgent Care and it would cost me 80-100 dollars a visit with no insurance.
Well I went in today, and i was literally in and out of the doctors with my prescription in 30 mins!
Dr. Qamar is super empathetic, professional, easy to talk to and very nice! He also made sure to give me the generic names for my prescription medicine so i wouldn't have to pay as much at the pharmacy!
I usually have to wait 1.5 - 2 hours in the waiting room at Urgent Care.
Overall i am VERY satisfied with Dr.Qamar and his staff. Without a doubt, if i ever get sick again, he and his wife will be my go to people!!
I LOVE the fact that he is helping out the community by helping out students get some decent priced health care.
I delayed my visit so long, and its a good thing i went to Dr. Qamar because he said i have bronchitis, so it could have gotten much worse if i was stubborn and not visited a doctor.
TWENTY THUMBS UP FOR THIS DOCTOR! I HAD AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE WITH HIM! read more
