— LocalityBiz (Review of Freeman Lamar Family Care)"Has gone really downhill. Been going for a few years now. The doctor is only there once a week now and not only are they generally slow to begin with now they are basically running with a nurse practitioner."
— OpenGovNY (Review of Freeman Health System - Lamar location)"My friend went to the hospital in the ambulance and they made him wait in the waiting area for four hours without ever taking him back. We finally left and went elsewhere. The triage was condescending, the nurses were rude."
