"Physician care was professional and competent. The wait time has been reasonable. However, follow up appointments (and care) certainly leave something to be desired."

— WebMD Review

"If you actually want help do not come here. They do not call medications in until 5 minutes before close if they call them in at all. The staff does not care about you."

— LocalityBiz Review

"Absolutely love the ladies in the lab. They are the only ones in Dothan that don't stick me repeatedly. Great job ladies"
