"I'd maybe put a four if they kept a doctor longer than 3 months, reception is rude and bitter. Most doctors bedside manner is that of a corrections officer. Though they have amazing case manager, MAT help and a couple great therapists."
— Birdeye review (La Junta Clinic Valley-Wide Health Systems)"Frivolous billing and inflexible office staff. Charges will be inconsistent and unjustified. They have no respect or consideration of long standing patients who pay their bills."
