- Inconsistency in patient care and prescription management
"If you want to go here for a general physical, it’s a good place to go. If you’re sick or need to be seen for something that can’t wait AT LEAST two months - you’re out of luck. They don’t schedule appointments less than two months out and all the receptionists I have spoken with on the phone have been very snappy with me."
— LocalityBiz Review"They cannot keep drs and you cannot get ahold of anyone in the office. Ive called probably 45 times in one day and not one time did I get anyone on the phone."
