You stop at the immediate first desk to pay and then wander hallways to specific areas labeled "AREA 1", "AREA 3" (a great security measure, not to identify doctors but difficult not to know where you are). The noise volume (often by employees) is high. The people wearing face masks are not the ones who are sick (and you have to ask for them). One of 2 bathrooms was out of order while I was there. You check in at a second desk and then are walked a long way to a third area. Halls are narrow, doctor rooms are small. Long waits for xray. The place is not welcoming, staff not friendly. Very institutional. (There are good docs here though.)

I initially went there in June of this year. I had to go back for blood work, and while sitting in the waiting area, I noticed at least ten of the many chairs there had cracked vinyl and stuffing protruding out of them. These were not very high quality chairs to begin with. Once I went in to get my lab work done, the area where they were doing labs had the same dilapidated chairs. I went to use the restroom to get a urine sample. it was disgusting. The baseboards were old and filthy. The instruction signs were printed on paper that was crinkled and stained. It was around 10 am and the trash can was already full. The soap dispenser, water faucet, paper towel dispenser, and light switch all had to be touched manually - nothing was motion activated. (It's 2025.) There was also no pass thru window to place samples. I had to walk around with my urine and ask someone where to put it. I contacted the patient advocate for Bond Clinic and informed her of my experience, and she said that Bond Clinic would be merging (?) with Advent Health and she couldn't guarantee what changes might be occurring. Now this might be the icing on the cake. POSSIBLE TRIGGER WARNING: I'm a 60 year old woman in good health and have been going to the gynecologist for decades. The last doctor I had was amazing, but sadly this year my insurance changed so I could no longer see him. I will try to put this delicately. In recent years - perhaps with advancements in technology - and possibly the expertise of the mostly good doctors I've been fortunate to have - I've usually had a pap smear that was uncomfortable for just a few seconds and then it was over. Enter my new gynecologist at Bond Clinic. She seemed nice at first. I won't name her, but she has an Eastern European accent and said that she was trained in France. Anyway, she does her business down there - and it felt like she put one of those little metal clamps that hold paper together inside of me. But, it gets better. This b$!ch leaves it in there for like 90 seconds while she goes back and forth to a little cart and is pumping something. I almost felt like crying, but anger won out - even though I was able to remain calm and keep my mouth shut. I vowed I would never go back there again. Thankfully I was able to change my doctors with my insurance. I pray that no one ever has to go through what I went through. They clearly have no regard for their patients or even their employees.
