Not only are the wait times ridiculous (1 hour in waiting room, 1 hour 20 mins inside the clinic room until finally a doctor showed up. this is for both appointments and walk in visits) but the service is terrible.
I have been diagnosed 5 times now with a bladder infection since September 2013 (it is now March 2014). Each time I would be prescribed antibiotics that end up not working so that I have to come back (making them more money and wasting more of my time). So for one bladder infection I would have to buy 2 different sets of antibiotics. Fine, great, whatever.
However, the most recent time I had been coming in for my second appointment, to get a stronger antibiotic, I had the doctor there actually look at my results and say "Well that's funny". It turns out my results came back negative, for this current appointment and the week early when I got my first prescription. Not only that, but looking back, my results have come back NEGATIVE EVERY TIME for the past 7 months! They just kept pumping me full of antibiotics assuming their misdiagnosis was correct because they didn't READ the results!
Alright, I let that slide. I'm pretty upset that I've wasted a good $100-$200 on worthless antibiotics, and wasted so much time in their waiting room.. but that's okay, I need to figure this out.
So they book me an ultrasound to see if anything would show in my bladder/ovaries to explain why I'm having abdominal pain. I go to the appointment, it's quick and they tell me the results will be in by the Monday. Low and behold, I'm still suffering and Wednesday comes around where I finally give in and call them to see if the results are in.
Yep! They are! But the doctors didn't register for a call-back. Which means, they didn't really find anything.
Are you kidding me? I don't care if you didn't find anything, but it would be great if you let me know so I can look into what else it might be that is causing me such pain! I have been suffering on and off for 7 months because of your misdiagnosis and ignorance. I know you're busy, but if you recognize that your clinic has made such a BIG mistake, wouldn't you think to save face by trying to find out what may actually be wrong with the person? It is unbelievably frustrating that they can get away with brushing off someones medical issues because one avenue came back clear. If this turns out to be something seriously damaging or deadly, I will bring this to some sort of authority.
Never go to this clinic. I'm not just talking about one doctor. I've seen 3 of them for the same problem, and they all misdiagnosed me. I know you're not paying for the visit, but the governments money is better spent ANYWHERE but here. read more
