My doctor was Jolene Valdez. She's one of the most condescending people I've ever met. Completely…read moreunprofessional. She constantly told me all this pain I've been in the past year is all in my head, and due to anxiety. I've been plagued with anxiety my whole life. And it never made my body hurt the way it does. I told her I couldn't wait to get out of this state and go back to Florida. And she proceeded to belittle me for having state insurance. She said "Oh, you expect top quality medical care with state insurance". "The state and the people in it are paying for you to see all these specialists". I work and pay taxes just like everyone else does in Vermont. I had spoken with the manager there and they switched me to another doctor. I've met quite a few other people that see Jolene. And nobody has said anything nice about her. She needs to lose her license and her job. Put her on state insurance and see how she likes being belittled by doctors when she needs help. See you next Tuesday.

They literally loose your payments all the time. They make you make appointments to solve nothing. They are ZERO help. Money hungry and not for the people or their health. I have gone several times and just given a run around rather than offering me some solution. Here we can give you meds. Well I was looking for a referral to a therapist, no here take some meds. Now go on your way. Oh as you're checking out and just made a $350 payment. Oh hey, you owe a balance of $1,378. Ok can you show me for what? Oh it's from last year, ok but what is it for? I make payments every time I come In and I pay with cash. Oh it's from last year. Yea but for what? What was I seen for? No response...... I don't know where the payments go but I'm not the only one having this issue.
