"Our members are very, very financially fragile"
— Mary Kate Mohlman, Bi-State Primary Care Association public policy director"Both the doctors and the staff are not very customer focused - they have not returned calls, did not respond to mailed correspondence, delayed giving referrals, the list goes on and on."
— Yelp Reviewer"The doctors here are fine, the real problem is with the receptionists. ... Calls are not returned, questions are half answered, and all inquiries result in you must see a doctor, and you must wait a long time for an appointment."
