My favorites are the two PAs; Jodi and the other provider whose name I unfortunately can't remember. They have taken care of my entire family with such genuine kindness, and you can truly tell they care about their patients. Today we visited the new Palm Harbor location, where Jodi took excellent care of my mom. She is professional, attentive, and takes the time to listen. She explains everything clearly and thoroughly, making you feel comfortable and cared for every step of the way. Our entire family has been coming to StadMed for years, and every visit has been a positive experience. They make us feel like more than just patients. they make us feel like family. I highly recommend StadMed to anyone looking for an urgent care that truly puts patients first. They deserve 100% of our recommendation!

I suffer from a sprained wrist and went to two other Urgent cares in the area, but none is even close to STATMED at Countryside Mall. Not only were they able to see me in a timely manner but they were able to do X-Rays on site (on a Sunday!) and provide a prescription to help with the pain. Thank you Rachel and Jennifer and everyone else who helped. In addition, they recommended that I see an Orthopedic doctor and gave me the name of one that took me on short notice, because I was referred by STATMED. If you need help, don't hesitate to use this wonderful facility.

Extremely Disappointed With Billing Negligence and Lack of Accountability…read more I visited Bayside Urgent Care and clearly informed the receptionist--three times--before receiving any services that I needed to make sure my insurance would cover everything. I was assured and proceeded based on that understanding. The doctor recommended a lab test "just in case," and I followed his medical advice. At no point did anyone warn me that the lab they would send my sample to was out-of-network. A few weeks later, I received a huge bill from an outside lab that does NOT accept my insurance. I called Bayside Urgent Care immediately to understand why my labs were sent to an unauthorized office when I had explicitly stated multiple times to verify insurance coverage. The receptionist was dismissive, unhelpful, and simply told me: "You received the bill, so it's your responsibility. Talk to the lab." No concern, no accountability, no explanation. To make things worse, when my insurance agent contacted Bayside Urgent Care today, the office suddenly changed their story, claiming they had sent my labs to a different facility that does accept my insurance. Meanwhile, I continue to receive large bills from the out-of-network lab, and Bayside Urgent Care refuses to assist or correct the issue. This has been stressful, misleading, and completely avoidable had the staff simply honored my repeated requests to verify insurance coverage. Their inconsistent statements and lack of responsibility are unacceptable. I do not recommend this urgent care to anyone who values transparency, proper billing practices, or respectful customer service.

After being unable to afford health insurance for almost 20 years, I was instructed to contact the clinic. They immediately examined me and ran all necessary tests that might be pertinent. Through a combination of mental health and physical health monitoring, I am a different person today on his way to a longer, healthier and happier life that was not even imaginable a year ago. The genuinely caring manner in which everyone at the clinic approaches the patients adds another level of healing to the process that they might not even realize. The clinic is headed by a particularly professional, sapient and informative individual that has shown me an unprecedented level of sincere concern that I have not experienced for decades. I owe her and everyone there more than they know. This is my first and maybe only yelp review. I felt it was important to give these beautiful people the praise they deserve.

They work in conjunction with local community partnerships to provide resources and care for patients that would otherwise not have access to healthcare due to lack of insurance. Staff is composed of nurses, medical assistants, and nurse practitioners as well as volunteer physicians from a multitude of various specialties including: cardiology, neurology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, pulmonology, rheumatology, orthopedics, gynecology, urology, allergy and immunology, ophthalmology, ENT, pediatrics, behavioral health counseling, psychiatry, physical therapy, and chiropractic medicine. Referrals to hematology, nephrology, and dermatology are available through community partnerships with BayCare medical group. They have their own pharmacy and provide medications to patients at no cost but do ask for donations, any specialty medications (insulins, respiratory inhalers, or other extremely expensive medications) can be obtained through patient assistance programs. They truly are an all-encompassing practice, their knowledge and compassion is evident in the care they provide. I recommend this clinic implicitly.

When they took me back, the doc took 30min or more to come to my room. When I was told it would be quick... Dr Vy - not a great doctor, IMO, I had been sick with symptoms that mirrored the Cyclospora Parasite outbreak. I mean they fit to a 'T'!! Plus I had eaten at Taco Bell literally 6-7 days prior to the first symptom! My symptoms were - Day 1 Severe nausea/gagging/dry heaving, diarrhea, no appetite. Then somewhere mid day, all of those went away. Then come evening the nausea and diarrhea would slowly start again. Day 2 I felt fine, maybe felt a lil off, no nausea, but did have diarrhea, nausea showed up later that evening, overnight. Day 3 severely nauseous/gagging/dry heaving early morning. No appetite. Half way through the day seemed ok, but very little appetite. Day 4 slept all night and actually woke up hungry and felt great all day! Day 5 all the symptoms showed up again in the middle of the night same as Day 1, bad! This was the day I decided I need to see a doctor. The info was out there about how the symptoms of the "poop lettuce" presented themselves and I was like this has to be that! When the doc came into the room, I explained all of these symptoms and the research. She told me the onset is usually within 2 days (not true - it can present in as early as 2 days- but per the CDC- a week is the average) and my symptoms weren't as severe as everyone else's. I use zofran and essential oils to help my symptoms plus not everyone is the same in their symptoms. I asked for the lab test to test for Cyclospora. She kept asking me about fevers. I said the symptoms I told you are the only symptoms I have had. They never took my temp in the office. 4x she asked about me having a fever throughout the 10-15min she was in the room. She said she couldn't give me an antibiotic without the lab test proving what I had - I didn't ask for that at this appt - I asked for the test. She ordered 3 tests, fortunately, I had the help of AI to determine the one test I requested, she didn't order! I was still in the lobby and asked the front for her to redo the orders because it's a very specific test that has to be requested that looks for Cyclospora. Finally got it. Unfortunately, this was a Thursday and I couldn't get the samples done before the lab closed. Long weekend goes by where Day 6-8 are a repeat of Day 5. Over the wknd I had time to research more about the lab tests, the parasite and the to do's and not to do's. My labs came back negative. Disappointing, but not uncommon, as the specific test for cyclospora is known to need to repeat tests (because of the parasites shedding cycle), but many doctors are trained to know the symptoms and can bypass the negative test to go ahead and prescribe the antibiotics based on the timeline from exposure to symptoms, the symptoms and the manner they present themselves. Or they could request a repeat test. Dr Vy - did none of those. Didn't request for me to come back in (we called to ask for the antibiotics/help because I was in bad shape) or another test. Her advice was to take Imodium and that was it. Off we went to the Mease ER. Where we were seen and heard right away. The ER doc said well, it's very common to need to do MULTIPLE tests because of the parasite shedding cycles- it's very common to get a false negative for Cyclospora. Since, I was dehydrated they gave me IV fluids, while we waited to see if I could provide a sample for them to run another test. Unfortunately, I had depleted my samples in the middle of the night (as that must have been my parasites shedding cycle ‍) and the ER doc made a decision (while advising me of the risks of taking the antibiotic) to go ahead and prescribe the Bactrim based on the timeline and on/off cycles of the symptoms and the specific symptoms. I am on Day 12 of this parasite sickness - but am also on day 3 of antibiotics with symptoms improving every day. First night symptom free with no zofran or oils! So, I'll never go to this urgent care again nor will I ever recommend it - unless it's obvious your bone is broken and this is the only place open.

I saw him for a hammertoe on my L second left toe. He never fixed it!! He decided to rearrange my toes because he did not like the spacing between a couple of them even though they matched my other foot perfectly. He inserted a rod into my big toe and turned it inward to close a space between that and the hammertoe, then he moved the hammertoe closer to my third toe so closely that I can barely get a washcloth in there. He left my metatarsal bulging on the top surface of my foot and in doing so, a pocket formed under it that filled with puss that had to be cleaned out throughout the healing process. Then he put me on antibiotics because I was in great pain even though I have profound Peripheral Neuropathy (no Diabetes here) and proceeded to prescribe only 7 days at a time. The pain came back full force at the end of each stint because 7 days was not enough. I had to beg him to leave me on it for a longer period before it was finally cleared up. And AFTER ALL THIS, my hammertoe was NEVER FIXED because enough of the bone was eaten away by infection. He left me a HUGE Medicare bill which they paid thankfully, but he caused me great pain and anguish, I missed a planned visit to one of my sons prearranged in great detail, and now the hammertoe can NEVER BE FIXED because it was eaten away by infection and is now very reduced in size.
