"I've been to this FastMed three times in the past two weeks for various reasons. Every time I had to wait thirty minutes past my scheduled appointment time. Once in the exam room the process is very quick. ... Overall I believe that this is a good facility when you're in a pinch but they seem understaffed and their appointment times are very inaccurate."
— Birdeye Review"Don't understand the bad reviews. I went in on a Sat afternoon with extreme knee pain so bad I couldn't walk. I was seen right away. The staff was friendly and attentive. The doctor was thorough and kind. Very pleasant visit."
