I'll be frank and admit because they called themselves a Christian center, I went there hoping to get some relief with some nice people. My experience was meh. I won't go into too much detail with costs, but if you don't have insurance, you're just screwed out of a good part of your paycheck. It costs way too much for just a consultation over a cold. The receptionist was short and acted like I had interrupted her day, and the doctor, while nice enough, made me feel pretty stupid when she diagnosed me with a common cold and asked, "Are you sure you feel bad?" Snarl. Boo. Hiss.

I've been to this clinic twice. Once was in May 2012 and while the staff was a bit abrupt, it was…read morenothing out of the ordinary. Dr. Petway saw me only briefly but she seemed nice enough. I work for a company that calls for medical records for our clients and in the past everyone I had spoken to from Christian Family Medical seemed very polite and genuinely helpful, so I assumed that they would be just as helpful with their actual paying patients. However, upon my return in February 2013 I made an appointment and was seen by the nice receptionist who, after looking at my file, informed me that my insurance wouldn't cover a wellness checkup within the same year period. I thanked her for letting me know and we rescheduled. Subsequently, I switched insurance companies and cancelled my appointment. I have since been billed for that "appointment", with a charge for a diagnosis that I have never been given. I called the office to try to inform them of the mistake, as I never even saw Dr. Petway, or even went to the back for that appointment. I was told that I would receive a call back and have not. Then my prior insurance company sent me a bill saying that I was diagnosed with Allergies due to Pollen by Dr. Petway. I have never had allergies in my entire life. When I called again to try to clear up the issue I was rudely interrupted and then hung up on. I have been waiting a call back, but as of yet have not received one. I worry that this is going to turn into some sort of fraud issue. By claiming to diagnose me with "allergies" I can't see how I can prove to them that I was not seen as there is no prescription that she would have had to write me. But the fact remains that I was never seen this year by Dr. Petway or any of her nurses so I do not feel that I should have to pay such an exorbitant amount. I am truly disappointed that this mistake has not been corrected and that the staff has been so rude in dealing with this issue. I understand that they are most likely overworked and have a lot of walk-in appointments to deal with but that is no excuse for such poor handling and potential fraud. I am actively seeking a new primary care physician and felt strongly enough about this issue to write a review.

The two met at medical conferences and are good friends. I was having trouble finding a good local physician. How ironic that I found my local PCP+ (definitely PCP PLUS) through my out-of-state specialist! I can't say enough good things about Dr Forbes and his staff. He once sat and listened to me cry -- pouring my guts out -- while handing me tissues. He never once rushed me or pushed me out of the office. THAT is unheard of, but that's how he is. His entire staff is kind and understanding, and very gentle in dealing with sensitive patients like me. He listens to me, understanding that I know my own body. He doesn't force me on or off medication when I have grave concerns about it. I firmly believe in the holistic, integrated approach. It makes complete sense! And I recommend Dr Forbes and Nashville Integrated Medicine. Heartily.

Do not recommend…read more This is the first time in my life I have ever written a review. I made this Yelp account to write this review. I don't know if I am doing this correctly, but I would honestly advise against using Sterling. I made an appointment months in advance because I was struggling with depression and wanted to pursue getting antidepressant medication in addition to diet, exercise, and therapy. I confirmed my appointment two days in advance, signed my forms digitally, and was glad about getting help for my condition. They responded to my confirmation with an additional message, so my confirmation was confirmed. Thirty minutes before my appointment, they let me know it had been cancelled. I called the office to ask why, and perhaps reschedule. I get it. Sometimes physicians get sick or have a family emergency. That would have been totally okay and I could have done the appointment another time. The receptionist pretty rudely informed me that my would-be psychiatrist quit a month ago, and that she was no longer with Sterling. I told her that was a bit confusing for me as the patient, because they still confirmed my appointment. She responded to this negatively as well, and when I asked about scheduling with another physician, she said that would be not likely or not possible because Sterling only has one psychiatrist and he is far too booked up. I really needed help with my depression, and I wish that Sterling hadn't given me what was basically a fake appointment. I also wish they weren't so rude when I was following up looking for care. If I had known my physician quit, or that the appointment wasn't happening, I could have gotten treatment somewhere else. Now, I am still in need of medical advice regarding my depression, but I'll likely have to wait a few more weeks to get advice somewhere else while my condition worsens. I can't speak for every physician or every patient experience, and I am sure that Sterling has some great physicians and patients with great experiences. However, my experience was pretty bad. My advice would be to either get psychiatric care somewhere else, or to pick up the phone and call to confirm appointments, because they'll apparently mislead you about availability and confirmation through both text and email. Thanks.

Receptionists? Health care is at a premium in this country and people are complaining about…read morereceptionists? This is a Medical Group. Doctors. Receptionists have very little to do with how I feel about the medical care I receive. I can't. And (since I can't quite let this go yet), who shows up to a doctor's office without an appointment and not in the care of one of said doctors? People, seriously! Ugh. Ignore any such foolishness. You see all these 5 star reviews talking about the actual *medical care* received from the *medical group*? Yeah. That. Here. So, Hillsboro Medical Group... well, more specifically, Dr. Womack. Dr. Womack is a phenomenal physician and I feel extremely fortunate to have him as my doctor. When I moved back to Nashville after living in Miami, I was excited at the promise of top-notch, world-renowned medical care. Don't let the honky tonks fool you: Nashville is a doctor/health care town. Being a Commodore, my allegiance to all things doctors starts (and ends) with Vanderbilt. After an unsuccessful search for a doctor on Yelp, I turned to friends and, finally, the internet. I kept hearing about Dr. Womack. Great. Him. I want him. When I called his office to make an appointment, I found out that his schedule was packed and, because of this, he wasn't taking new patients. He couldn't; his waitlist was too long. I was crestfallen... but undeterred. I tapped into Tennessee sweetheart Reese Witherspoon's performance as Tracy Flick to make sure I got what I wanted. A short time later, I was a patient of Dr. Womack's. I quickly saw why his schedule was so packed and why he's in such demand. He's extremely intelligent, patient, inquisitive, knowledgeable, thorough, and judgement-free. I can be on the high maintenance side of medical attention and not once have I ever been made to feel as anything other than a respected patient with needs to be met and care to be given. He's always quick to respond to an inquiry and quite connected with the greater physicians' network so that when/if you need a referral, he knows exactly to whom to send you. My next door neighbor is a Vanderbilt doctor and he told me that Dr. Womack's reputation precedes itself. When a doctor is revered by patient and colleague alike, you know you have a great one. I trust him implicitly and feel very fortunate that he's my doctor. With stress that comes at you from every side, it's nice to feel confident that when you are at a time of greatest need, you have all the best support in the world. Dr. Womack is as good as it gets. Without a doubt.

I became a patient of this clinic last fall, and have been attempting to find the root of a host of symptoms ever since. My provider was extremely dismissive of very serious symptoms, including some bloodwork that came back indicative of major systemic problems. In consults with others that use this provider, she seems to always be this way. Speaking of bloodwork, when I needed additional testing, I was asked to come in for an additional blood draw and that it would take "10 minutes" and on three separate days had to wait over an hour, and therefore leave and return another day. Need a referral? Be prepared to wait. For weeks. And for it to be wrong/not taking into account your insurance situation. I waited weeks to hear something from an abdominal ultrasound referral and only after I called again did I learn it had been sent to an out of network clinic that did not have my information and needed to be started all over again. A need for a dermatology referral produced the same result, but fortunately I was able to handle the booking and insurance situation on the phone. They never were able to find the referral. Oh, then there's the one prescription that I was told would be called in (an allergy med) that never was. Ever. And the other (an anti gas med I didn't want to be on and told my provider the second they suggested it I didn't want) that she called in anyway and I was hassled about not picking up. And let's talk about the staff. There's one lady at the appointments desk that has once hung up on me in the middle of a reschedule and, when I asked to switch providers due to dissatisfaction with the one that has seen me for months and been dismissive of my results, was UNBELIEVABLY condescending and rude. There are multiple people working that desk, but every time I get this one a minor request turns into a PROBLEM. If you'd like to say you have a doctor without actually having one, by all means the Frist clinic is correct for you. It's a weird 4th floor urgent care with hospital prices and wait times. At best. If you have something really wrong and want a partner in your health, go literally anywhere else. I'm sure there are exceptions but I feel like this clinic is, overall, a landing spot for people who care very little about their patients' experiences, wellbeing, or outcomes.
