What Patients Say

Overall sentiment across review platforms: negative

  • LocalityBiz: 1/5 stars (1 (available online review))

Common complaints

  • Patient felt inattentive care from provider
  • Provider did not review medical history/charts prior to appointment
  • Allegations of the center functioning as a drug dispensary rather than providing comprehensive care

"I was surprised to know that she doesn't review the chart before an appointment. I would think that losing nearly 80 pounds would be cause for questions especially with extensive digestive problems in the last 90 days. I would expect a medical professional to be prepared to provide quality care... This experience is another reason that I feel the Vincennes University Primary Care Clinic is nothing more than a drug dispensary."
