I was confirmed for this appointment. - Arrived and was told they don't have flu shots yet for the season and don't know when they will. Complete waste of my time. - I advised they update their appointment scheduling procedures so they don't schedule flu shots before they are ready to administer them. The receptionist looked at me like I was stupid and said they can't do anything about that, it just depends when flu shots are ready nationally (that wasn't my question). - Before I discovered they don't have flu shots, the routine front desk check-in experience was bizarre. I was asked if my information (address, etc) had changed but had to ask twice for examples of my information on file so I could verify it hadn't changed. Then I was told to go around the corner, but there was no waiting area there, so I had to go back and ask a second time where to go. Super strange.

When trying to make an appointment for an annual wellcare visit the answer is always that there are no openings or the schedule is not out yet. I have not seen my PCP in 2 years, only a PA.

I have been a patient at 3737 Penn Family Medicine for two years, and while my visits are usually…read morequick and uneventful, my experience today was completely unacceptable. I called around 11 a.m. to address a billing discrepancy regarding a student doctor and my insurance not covering services provided by students. Instead of receiving assistance, I was met with hostility from the receptionist, Keisha. She was argumentative, dismissive, and outright disrespectful. When I calmly relayed what my insurance company had told me, she responded with statements like, "I don't know what to tell you," and even accused me of lying by saying, "You're lying, that's not true." No patient should ever be spoken to that way, especially when trying to resolve a billing/insurance concern. I remained composed during the call, but the level of unprofessionalism was shocking. I escalated the matter to the Practice Manager, Joyce Summerville, and unfortunately, that conversation was just as unproductive. My concerns were not taken seriously, and the behavior was not meaningfully addressed. This experience has significantly damaged my trust in this practice. I will be filing a formal grievance. Patients deserve respectful communication and accountability when issues arise.
