I started driving a school bus in 1991, straight trucks 1992, and then big riggs I'm 1996. Ihave visited Canada and all of the United States, accept for Oregon, Washington and Idaho. Just a little history on why I have a CDL! Back to the review, lol! My first time at this particular CMD was maybe 2020. I wish I could say that all City MD's are the same but reviews will vary. Walking inside the facility I found it emaculate and everything was in its place. The ladies at the front desk was very cordial but the worker that came from the back was very rude. She interrupted us while we conversing. Other than that everything else was fine. I didn't remember that there was a parking lot in the back so I paid for two hours on the street and then moved to the parking lot. The rational for street parking is because I had to drop a friend off at the Asthma clinic and I walked to the CMD. So I did the physical and all went well I also brought papers to get a blood pressure monitor. Finally I did her X-rays on my finger because my finger was slammed in my car door when I got out. Well! How'd you slam your finger in your own car door, one might ask? Well I was distracted, okay, okay. Okay, I wasn't minding my business. I like to observe my surroundings for my safety. Well, I guess I'll chalk up scanning my environment for safety, it didn't work well. SMH! The other staff and doctor that I dealt with provided compassionate care and kept me informed. It was a good visit. Doctor Lee gave me my results on the X-ray. All is well with the finger just tender to touch, Doc says take Tylenol and ice. (Since you don't know me, I did it). I immediately replied, Trump said don't take Tylenol, he looked at me turned around and walked out of the room. I need to resist opportunities for joking when they arise. ‍ Oh well! I'm out!

She refused to recommend an electrolyte drink or OTC solution when I asked for something with little to no potassium without pee and blood tests first....be real people can't throw money around on expensive tests because they are thirsty! Unlike another commentor I did find Maria at the front desk to be organized and friendly, just totally wrong with her information later on, and deaf to reason or logic. She actually warned me on the phone that I may not get the Dr to order an MRI which was correct and ok, but seeing I had several maladies I decided to go anyway to at least get referred. I desperately need this MRI as comparison for court because of an assault that occurred making my torn labrum worse. My proof could evaporate with time. I will even just pay out of pocket for it right now without insurance! The Dr did xrays negative at clinic. She says "next step mri" I thought she might order it. She has Maria get me a referral (Fri) for an orthopedic hip surgeon for Monday, pretty quick. I was impressed. I spent months finding in network providers through Anthem and my Health Advocates, how did she do this so fast? Few hours later I thought this is not right, google search. That's when I decide to call that doctor because he does not exist on the internet!!!! Or on Anthem's site. He is NOT an orthopedic hip surgeon he is a Pain Management doctor. Pain Management must be prescribed with my insurance, but I don't need that, I need a comparative MRI and surgery consultation. And I need it now!! For court!! For pain!! Before more damage is done with incorrect healing. You can't bring a pain management doctor to court. Maria says this is the process to see someone else first to get yet another referral for a surgeon. Why am I seeing 2 doctors? I need a Hip Surgeon Expert for court not a pain management dropout. If my lights don't work, I don't call a General Contractor or a Plumber to fix my electric and pay them for an unnecessary visit....I call an Electrician! If there is a chance for possible surgery, you see a surgeon. Then the surgeon will recommend pain management and or rehab. I did 4 MRIs, 1 CT and 3 Xray last year with various providers all direct to specialist with no middle doctor or PCP. All in less than a week I had scans.

That's so important when needing medical care and you can't get to your own doctor. The services were thorough and the attention I received was good.

He asked me very excellent and SPECIFIC relevant questions, which I appreciate. That to me is a good tell of a Knowledgeable individual. They know WHAT questions to ask and he explains WHY he's asking for clarity and context! I know because the same goes in my profession as well. I know what the good ones look like, sound like, and act like. There's a similarity in that across all sorts of Professions! The Blood Draw was the best I've ever had!! The SMOOOOOOTHEST!!! Literally no pain and NOT EVEN A PINCH that would typically be felt! I complimented KEVIN ZHANG on it!! He Explained and Demonstrated his technique and tips to me after I asked him out of curiosity! I HOPE KEVIN TEACHES AND COACHES THIS TO HIS FELLOW SCRIBES IF THE POWERS THAT BE WOULD CONSIDER THAT!!!! WHAT AND HOW HE DOES IT SHOULD BE THE BEST AND WIDELY KNOWN PRACTICE!!! I went in there for just a routine STI panel. No Symptoms on my end! I'm just responsible like that since I'M OUTSIDE!!! You feel me?!?

I have been a patient at this practice for over 10 years. I originally switched providers after…read moreexperiencing inappropriate comments about my body from a previous doctor, and until today I had never had an issue here. While waiting in the exam room, I was feeling anxious and warm (it was over 80 degrees outside), so I pulled my hoodie off one shoulder to cool down. When the doctor entered the room with what appeared to be two nurses in training, the very first thing he said to me was, "Cover yourself up appropriately." I was completely taken aback and embarrassed by this comment. It immediately made me feel judged and ashamed, and I found it difficult to focus on the rest of the appointment because I was so upset. No patient should be made to feel uncomfortable or shamed about their appearance, especially in a medical setting where they should feel safe and respected. After more than a decade as a patient, this encounter completely shattered the trust and sense of respect I believed existed between myself and this practice. Unfortunately, because of how I was treated, I will not be returning to this practice. For context, I have attached a photo showing how I was dressed at the time. Given the 82-degree weather and the fact that I had simply moved my hoodie off one shoulder while waiting alone in the exam room, I do not believe the doctor's comment was warranted.

In what world is it professional to convince me not to do something. Anyway, I was very clear that despite what he had to say, I still wanted the lab drawn. He said okay. Come to find out two days later that he literally tested me for every other STD BUT herpes. STDs should all be taken very seriously and should not be downplayed at all. I did my part and was responsible about wanting to get tested and ended up getting stuck with a doctor who refused to do the one thing I asked.

Today between the hours of 4-5 pm I visited this location. The reason for this visit was to get a…read morerapid test for my grandfather and the visit I experienced what totally unacceptable. The receptionist both have attitudes however TIFFANY is just DISRESPECTFUL. When I first spoke to her asking about wait time she asked name I replied with the name and she replied NAME again only louder and with an attitude this time. I was told to bring my grandfather inside I did that and he was told 20min wait for test not a problem. I went back inside to see if results were ready no one was at the desk so I waited when she (Tiffany) came out I said "hey I was just waiting for the test results" she said "someone would come outside with them" I then said "I needed a paper copy" because I thought the guy was outside with an iPad originally. This is where she got a nasty attitude and opened her eyes at me like I am a child. When I asked her for the office manager I was told there isn't one and I have to call the number on the card. The card has only one number and that is to the place I am standing in. Makes 0 sense. I asked for her name and she walked away from me and ignored me and went to the very back room. I walked behind the desk and ask someone else for her name and was told then. She screamed out I'm calling my supervisor which I'm 100% sure she did not. As a healthcare facility these attitudes towards patients should never be tolerated and I would know because I am in nursing and would never treat a patient or family of a patient as such. I am disgusted with this visit. The office had other employees there not one person stepped up or in to see what the issue was and how it needed to be addressed. I usually come to this location however I haven't been back since July 7th because I went in for a covid test and this facility didn't offer it yet but even then the front desk girls were nasty they wouldn't even open their mouth to speak to me when I was inquiring about the test i was replied with Head nods. Someone tell this child working here that healthcare is not for everyone and maybe she should leave if she is unhappy with the job.
