AVOID THIS URGENT CARE AT ALL COSTS - Completely Unprofessional and Negligent!! I've never written a negative review before, but my experience with this urgent care was so unacceptable that I feel obligated to share it. I visited on February 5th for vertigo and was met with a series of issues that reflect gross mismanagement and disregard for patient care. 1. Two-Hour Wait in a Room With No Explanation After being taken into a room, I sat for two full hours without any communication from staff. No updates, no nurse, no doctor--just left sitting there. That alone would have warranted concern, but unfortunately, it only got worse. 2. Wrong Blood Test Results As someone on an immunosuppressant, my white blood cell and vitamin D levels are always low--this is well-documented. The results they gave me were completely normal, which immediately raised red flags. I followed up with my neurologist the next day and had my labs redone. Sure enough, the new results matched my usual levels--not the ones provided by this urgent care. This suggests either a mix-up or a serious error in reporting results. 3. Prescription Nightmare I was prescribed Zofran for vertigo I have been having for days and was told it would be ready within an hour. The pharmacy never received the order. I had to call multiple times over FOUR DAYS (Wednesday through Saturday), and each time I was told it would be sent over. I finally got my medication five minutes before the pharmacy closed on Saturday. Absolutely unacceptable for something that should have been done the same day and was left dealing with my symptoms without medication. 4. Unauthorized and Mysterious Billing Then, on May 22nd (over 3 months later) I was suddenly charged $164 from my bank account without any prior notice or explanation. When I called, I was rudely told, "Well, that would be your deductible..." My deductible for urgent care is $50, not $164. And even if there was an issue, why wasn't I billed at the time of service instead of nearly four months later? I called to dispute the charge and was told someone would call me back. No one ever did. At this point, I've involved my lawyer because this kind of billing practice is highly questionable, if not illegal. This urgent care failed on every single level. Communication, accuracy of medical testing, timely delivery of care, and responsible billing. I should have written this review after the prescription fiasco, but the billing issue was the final straw. If you value your health, your time, and your money, go elsewhere. This clinic has demonstrated a complete inability (or unwillingness) to provide even basic patient care. They do not do their jobs, and I do not trust them, and definitely will never step foot in this place again.

The receptionist is a complete liar, and I will be disputing any and all charges with my insurance company. I will also be reporting them to the attorney general of PA, and any other medical regulatory agency federal and state-wide. Malpractice to the fullest degree, and they should all be ashamed of themselves for representing the medical profession. This "urgent care" is completely incompetent, and they can not handle anything more than the common cold.

These are the most incompetent doctors and nurses to ever come out of the healthcare system. Avoid at all costs, it might cost you your life.

She called me back 2 Days Later yes 2 Days Later and told me she could not schedule me a diagnostic mammogram without me having a previous mammogram. The previous mammogram was out of state and it would take 3 weeks to get but they DID have the paperwork/REPORT. They needed the scan. I tried to get the previous scan quicker but I couldn't. I call back and left a message for this woman telling her I was in terrible pain and that I tried to get the previous scan quicker but it would still take 3 weeks . This is the Clincher I never got a call back. So I called a different place told them I haven't had a scan in 8 years and I got in. I gave this place a one because it took two days to get back to me originally and then I never got a second call back. I thought when you had an emergency they would get you in quicker not a chance no one cares I mean they don't care

They took care of my mom which is more than I can say about Lehigh Valley Hospital in Dickson city. They completely dismissed and discounted my mother's complaints and sent her home with a broken bone in her spine. Fortunately, the doctor's here took a fresh look and found this fracture and a couple other problems that had been ignored by her other primary care doctors. The ER Dr. White was amazing and had wonderful bedside manner. He actually seemed to care, how incredible is that?! Nothing like getting a full explanation on the current care and future plan for helping my mother get out of the hospital and continue on in her golden years. Everyone was great during our visit to the ER and we appreciate all the loving care my mother received here.

I had to go to this office because I got a shitty healthcare plan that I didn't know was shitty ,and it sent me to this facility. I got a bill from them for $300 for a Pap smear and a couple of tests. I'm sorry, but that is not what a woman should have to pay just to find out if she's healthy. Not only did I get a bill from them stating that I owe them $300 but that my insurance claim was still pending and I may be on the hook for $1674. Again almost $2000 for a Pap smear? In a facility that looked like a free clinic. This hospital has shown me in real time the effects of a failing healthcare system. You can tell the hospital staff does not care about their patients. This whole experience has put me in such a state of panic not just for myself, but for other women who may be going through this, but 10 times worse. I hope this review doesn't land on blind eyes, but I'm sure it will. I have a feeling they're prone to bad reviews.good luck to anybody who has to go to any of the Geisinger hospitals. Make sure to be an advocate for yourself.

My mother had been here two times previously in the past week and sent home with a prescription for pain saying there's nothing wrong with her. Fast-forward one week when she is in excruciating pain and we take her to Geisinger community Hospital in Scranton and they found that she has a broken bone in her spine. They also found she has an infection and a couple other issues that need to be addressed, but we're completely ignored and dismissed by the other hospital. We are considering legal action due to the negligence of the hospital, doctors and staff.

She then left the room and I could hear her out in the hall complaining to the other nurses how rude and unthoughtful not wearing a mask was and how dumb of people to not go out in public without one.. she then came back in and talked down on me AGAIN for not getting my flu shot but I work from home and opted out because I'm not around people only for her to tell me "well you must not be that quarantined if you got covid". Gave me my papers and I left. I will not be back. Poor quality care. Didn't even take my temp or other vitals or gave me a work up. As soon as they got the +result they stopped giving care.

I enjoyed my experience here compared to Wilkesbarre general hospital. Everyone swears by the deliciousness of the smoothie bar (I personally never got it tho). Beware this is trauma center so the ED can be very chaotic at times with long waits for beds but they get to you eventually based on the severity & level of care needed to make you feel better. The labor and delivery ward here is the really good compared to the others I've been to; it also has a Nicu for babies. (But if I had to choose a place to deliver, Geisinger CMC in Scranton labor and delivery is so much nicer but better suited for moms with uncomplicated pregnancies as they don't have a NICU.) My main downside to coming here was how far away the parking lot was & can be challenging to find a closer spot. But to help they do have shuttles that runs till about 4am & can pick you up and take up to the front of the hospital.

As a new patient, you cannot call a doctor's office directly or speak to their local staff. Everything goes through a centralized call center. Even if a doctor's profile says they accept new patients and treat your condition, the call center will block you from scheduling if it doesn't match an exact term on their computer screen. You end up pawned off on available doctors with poor reviews, while the highly-rated doctors are booked out for a year. When you are on borrowed time, you need direct access to a doctor you choose, not automated call-center nonsense.
