    Savannah, Georgia. In total agreement with the other reviews above. She takes time! I am never…read morerushed and she goes out of her way to answer questions and to make sure you understand everything that is going on. She listens - sometimes too much - to all of the stories I tell, but it makes my visits very enjoyable. At age 71 it is great to have someone on my side who seems to care. There is not a lot of that left in the world. AND Sharon is the best! She has a kind, confident approach which keeps you at ease. Great practice!

I like the concept that she is providing in healthcare. With an annual membership you get unlimited visits, 2 sets of labs and most medications at cost from the office dispensary for a set price with no surprise costs to be concerned about. This has made medical care affordable for me while enjoying the experience of no long waits and getting in quickly. Her assistant, Sharon, is a great asset in the office to schedule appointments, take your vitals and draw your labs. She's very personable and always smiling. Dr. Lavallee has been more than a physician to me. She's helped me get through some of the most difficult times life has presented me. I can't imagine, looking back, how I'd have made it through these last 7 years without her care. She makes getting better unbelievably enjoyable. To put it very simply, I consider Dr. Marilyn Lavallee the absolute best!

    Dr. Ghaleb is an extremely kind and thorough doctor who usually spends 30 minutes to an hour with…read moreme for appointments. My previous PCP would shove me out in 10-15 minutes due to pressure from the insurance companies to see the most patients in the least amount of time, so I am more than happy with Family Medicine of Pooler's direct care business model as it allows me to actually share my concerns with my doctor and be involved and informed in my own care. Dr. Ghaleb always informs me of all my options and allows me to make my own decisions with her guidance. They will even ask if there are any particular labs you would like her to consider when you are getting your annuals. I am a very anxious patient and she is always so considerate and patient with me. I can't speak highly enough of her and her team. The nurses are also extremely kind. I hope Family Medicine of Pooler is my family practice for many years to come.

Their system may work, just don't be sick when you call, as they are 6 weeks out to see you. They claim it's because of being a new patient, which we all know is really just a few extra pieces of paper that need to be filled out. The real ironic part is that their speech they give about their services is geared towards how to ensure that your credit card stays up to date for all billing. That was mentioned 4 times while talking about my wife's stroke. They may be good, just not for an emergent issue. I would not call them if you have immediate unforeseen needs.
