I've never had a problem here and able to see specialists at this location. I also received my…read morecovid booster shot here.

This is a review of KP overall, and the Southwood Center is certainly part of the "system" that…read moredeserves and has earned opprobrium. I won't even attempt to describe that various indignities and issues. It would take too long. For now - severe back pain, ongoing, unrelenting. I had to beg to be seen for an appointment two weeks out just to be diagnosed. Then, begging for a spinal injection which was another 10 days out. I get to the appointment, and they tell me my blood pressure is too high. They tell me the ibuprofen KP prescribed is making it high and they refuse to do the procedure. I am given an appointment two weeks out to get my blood pressure checked, and if it ok, I will be put in line to get the spinal injection. I am told they can schedule it quickly, even though the last time allotted was two months out, until the begging. I use their Medicare Advantage program. The enticement to use this was low cost. I will never fall for this again. Kaiser is indifferent to pain, and an adherent to their "protocol". Wherever these protocols are located is a mystery, but they are pulled out to justify their indifference. Need to see a doctor soon? Back of the hand for you. To be fair, I have finally, after much trouble and long waits, gotten to see some seemingly good doctors - not all - just a few. Getting to them is pot luck, and takes jumping through many hoops of KP's own making. It's a medical mill. You are on an assembly line, and if you don't fit in one of their oddly shaped procedural slots, then get ready, because that's all you are going to get. As to what's next, I'll tell you. Unrelenting pain. That's it. I actually don't know where to turn now. This is a form of medical care that I have never encountered. If you are thinking about KP for Medicare or Medicare Advantage - don't do it. Just don't do it.

Okay, I'm a little late posting this review, as our visit to Southern Regional Medical Center was…read moreon May 1st, but I still felt it was important to share our experience. My father had taken a fall and his knee had swollen to nearly three times its normal size, so he asked me to take him to the ER. We are fairly new to the area so we went with the closest hospital. We arrived around 9 PM. To be fair, the initial intake process -- vitals, insurance, and registration -- was handled within a reasonable amount of time. However, after that, the wait became absolutely unbelievable. My father was not taken to have x-rays until nearly midnight. Honestly, I'm not even sure he would have been called back when he was had he not gone to the desk himself to ask what was taking so long. By that point, both my 12-year-old son and I had actually fallen asleep in the waiting room. Once he finally got called to the back about 4 AM we learned there was only ONE ER doctor on duty that night. EMS arrivals understandably took priority, but that meant anyone who walked in by car just kept getting pushed further and further aside. I completely understand emergency prioritization, but it is difficult to understand how an ER can function properly with only one physician covering the entire department. At one point, I was ready to leave and take him somewhere else, but after already waiting so many hours, we felt stuck. Eventually, the doctor read his x-rays and bloodwork results and discovered that while he had no broken bones or sprains, his potassium levels were dangerously high, his kidney numbers were low, and his blood pressure was also very low. Thankfully, those labs likely uncovered a much more serious issue than the original injury itself, and for that I am grateful. He was ultimately admitted to the hospital. Unfortunately, the delays continued after admission. A doctor briefly stopped by Saturday morning, but he was not properly seen again until Sunday. That level of delay for admitted patients is concerning and, honestly, unacceptable. Now, with all of that said, I absolutely want to acknowledge the staff members we encountered because THEY are the reason this review went from a 1-star to a 3-star experience! Big shoutout to Crystal at the front desk/check-in area. She was patient, kind, and professional throughout the chaos. We also encountered Dakota, Nurse Donna, Peter, Sonia, and Nurse Lea, and every single one of them showed empathy, patience, understanding, and excellent bedside manner despite clearly being overworked and understaffed. They did the best they could with the resources they had, and it showed. This review is truly directed toward hospital leadership and administration. The staffing shortages are hurting both the employees and the patients. A hospital cannot properly serve its community if it does not have adequate staffing in its emergency department and patient care areas. The staff turned what was an absolute nightmare experience into a more tolerable experience through sheer professionalism and compassion alone. But unfortunately, based on this experience, I will NOT return to this location unless absolutely necessary!

This was honestly one of the worst hospital experiences I've ever had in Riverdale, Georgia. I…read morewould never go back to Southern Regional Medical Center, and I definitely would not recommend it. The waiting room was chaotic, dirty, and uncomfortable. There was a man walking around without shoes on, repeatedly making very loud noises and eating noodles in the waiting area. Another woman was walking around asking people for change. After I told her no, she kept staring at me, then later coughed and spit on the floor. What shocked me most was that I never saw security come through the waiting room to check on what was going on or address any of it. I waited almost FOUR HOURS to be seen and eventually got so disgusted and frustrated that I left without being treated. The disorganization was also unbelievable. I personally witnessed a woman being handed the wrong urine specimen cup with someone else's name on it. That alone is extremely concerning in a medical facility. The entire experience felt unsanitary, disorganized, and poorly managed. When people come to an emergency room, they are already sick, scared, or in pain. They should not have to sit for hours in an environment that feels unsafe and unhygienic. I am genuinely baffled by what I experienced. I left because I could not take it anymore. I highly do NOT recommend Southern Regional Medical Center.

I have been having lung issues so did a search to see how much it would cost cash without insurance…read morefor screening as I have to wait one more year for my insurance to pay. I said OK I will pay it to find out if I was OK. Made appoint after I pre-paid. I get there on time and sat down as no one was at the front desk, when someone came I was informed I was at the wrong address, but address on my paperwork had that address. The first lady was in the back and seemed to act like I was inconveniencing her by asking questions. She rudely said to wait, then when she called my name asked me why I was there I told her then she says, you are at the wrong place. When I asked where do I go she said I don't know maybe next door, go down there. I asked if she could call someone, she says I don't know the number. I was having difficulty breathing after I walked down there and I found out it was at Emory hospital so I go in and I say to myself this isn't right, the lady at the register says while reading my paperwork you have to go back to them you are at the wrong place. So I went back to them and a different lady was at the counter and I asked do you know where I go? Showed her my paperwork and told her I was sent next door and that was Emory. She knew who to call and gave me the number and address and told me I had to go to Riverdale about 15-20 minutes away and I thanked her and went over there. I was late and sitting there an hour no one called me back to register or anything and when I got there I explained what happened, but they could care less. it was not my fault I was not given the correct address and seems like they would have gotten me in for their mistake, but I was treated very badly and I just got up and left it was almost 10AM, my appt was for 8AM by the way. No apology or anything. I would never go back to them. A disgrace how some facilities treat people. One last thing, I even called the appointment desk while in waiting room at Riverdale hospital to explain to them what happened and to see if they could either squeeze me in then or tell me to come back tomorrow at another time, since as I said it was their fault, but no. She said i might have something in a week or two. I said that's OK and got up and left. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

One of the MRI techs told her that her anxiety medicine might not work and that it was all about her managing her anxiety. She is also afraid of small casket like spaces. They then lied and told me that I would be able to accompany her after they gave her an interview. When I got to the back my mom was on the table saying she was trying to be strong for me and was a puddle of tears. They had already tried to insert her IV and everything. They tried to keep my out as long as possible. I will never allow my mom to be booked at this place again. They didn't handle her needs with the individual care that she needed. TAKE THE DRIVE TO ATLANTA AND BOOK WITH EMORY OR NORTHSIDE CANCER SPECIALIST. This office is clueless.

These horrible reviews are valid, don't ignore them (like I did). I truly wanted to support a woman…read moreof color in the medical field as my maternal lineage was full of Nurses & Hospice workers. That being said, there are just some people that should not be in the medical profession . Those who lack empathy, care & concern should choose professions where those attributes are not necessary. Unfortunately, this "doctors" office is full of women who are clearly just there for a check. There's miscommunication between the front staff, patients & the nurse. Mismanaged time is expected, & there is no hospitality or care for their patients. Again, please do not waste your time here. Go somewhere else, I encourage you to go where your time & concerns are valued. You are worth exceptional care, you won't find that here. I hate to say but I do believe whoever is answering the phones & relaying false/incorrect information with an attitude will be the reason this business does not survive.

Well the opposite happened to me. After visiting Southern Crescent Medical Center in Stockbridge, I got a bad blood draw and my left arm has been week and sore for 6 month now. Shantel Bryant not only tried to turn a blind eye to the fact that her medical assistant did a bad blood draw on me, even after the girl admitted it, but she also got hostile and hung up the phone on me for asking her to pay the $77 imaging fee to have my arm looked at for blood clot etc. She had the audacity to state "blood draws don't cause blood clots, especially when done with a butterfly needle." This statement shows Shantel's lack of medical knowledge. Not only is she not a nurse, there is no doctor at this facility. Which concerns me. How can you call yourself a "doctor's office" with no doctor practicing in the building. If you end up at this facility ask to speak to the doctor before being seen. I will never use them again! You shouldn't either!
