The doctor that I saw today for my preop check up was professional and thorough. The wait was not long. The staff was friendly and answered all my questions. I definitely am going back.
unbelievably wait. awfull!!! we came 11:50am. the doctor checked my daughter around 2:30pm. people was seen before us. if i dont ask the receptionist our turns.she will let other patients to go first before us. but we came first before them. terrible staff. the waiting is terrible. i hope they could do something about it.
The doctor arbitrarily decided to leave before closing hours... I had even called in the morning to say when I'd be coming in. I then took a $25 cab ride to get there. Then the receptionist informs me the doctor has "decided" to leave. So I go back home, still with a stomach infection. Later I find out through google that there was another walk-in clinic 2 blocks away that was open, but the receptionist neglected to mention this. Terrible. People have health issues; we're not dollar signs.
I am using this clinic many years & so far could not find better walk-in so I could switch to something closer to my home.
Pros:
- Most of the doctors are really knowlegable, will listen to you, & will give you excellent referrals (which I think the most important thing your family Dr can provide).
- They do blood tests even on the weekends.
Cons:
- Only work half-day on Fridays
- Wait is usually long
- Parking is not free (but if you can wealk, you can find plenty of free paring not too far)
