The person they sent us, however was elderly and unable to do hard work without feeling ill. V.A. was supposed to send out a manager to check on how we were feeling about the help we were getting, but never did in the 7-8 months we employed them. They did not seem to know (?) that the person sent to help us was too ill or uncaring or unmotivated (?) to carry out the tasks we required. We will be out of here quite soon now and are thankful for the help and the existence of Visiting Angels in this community, but feel they should monitor their employees and keep tabs on how employers are feeling about their helpers. I would recommend that if you employ people from V.A. (or anywhere else) that you are very clear about what you need to have accomplished and spend time training 'your' helper before you expect them to fully understand your priorities. Also they (V.A.) are paid $30.00 by us (or you) and only pay $12.00 to their employees. I don't believe their are benefits, but I'm not entirely sure. Our housekeeper was 70 yrs old and in poor health. Also she was weak after having a heart attack. We felt as though we couldn't fire her. Where would she work if not V.A.?

It was, hands down, the best service we have ever received from Apria. Thank you!

She was fiercely independent and I worried the transition onto a carehome would be problematic. The owner and staff at Frye's very professionally and compassionately provided the assistance to make that transition possible and less traumatic for her. The facility is very nicely decorated with large living rooms and a beautiful garden courtyard off a large sunroom. The individual apartments are kept immaculate and the floor staff are well trained. They provide daily activities, meals served in a spacious dinning room, and each room has a large screen television. Mom passed after about seven months of residency but considered Frye's her new home. They truly do provide excellent care.

The employees leave them in their depends for hours which causes bed sores. They do not provide enough care to keep your parents or grandparents alive. If you want them to die this is the place to send them. They don't pay the good caregivers enough to stay so they employ highschool students and people who have never had experience so they can save money. If you care about them don't send them here!

Uncle Dave looks super happy

He took my headdress as a personal offense and kept talking about it being a safe space, as-if me covering my hair had anything to do with him. The audacity. He said I had to remove my headwrap & use a pillowcase! He then sneakingly and deceitfully slowly removed this random pillowcase he made me use during the neck massage. This guy is an arrogant egocentric narcissist. This is definitely not a safe space for everyone. Whenever I saw him in public after this, he pointed to his hair while looking at me with this odd expression. I get massaged weekly and this is by far the most regrettable massage. I wish I never allowed this weirdo to touch me with his pompous fake deceitful trickster energy.

Disappointed! I'm…read morenot one to leave reviews, but Dr. Nathan Webb did not leave a good impression with me. It was my first visit with him as a new patient at Center for Natural Medicine, and I had to take off work to make the appointment, after waiting for weeks. Due to my busy day at work and traffic issues, I was 7 minutes late to my 1-hour appointment. I brought all the necessary paperwork that had been emailed to me and it was filled out prior to my arrival. I was ready to go when I walked in. Dr. Webb then handed me more paperwork to fill out after I arrived. I'm now repeating the same information onto more forms for the third time, which I've already stated twice before on the previous forms. After filling this paperwork out and handing it to Dr. Webb, we're now 15 minutes into my 1-hour appointment and he tells me he's not going to see me and that I'll have to make another appointment (weeks out) because it's too late. I explained to him there's plenty of time left to get done what we can and that I'm also a busy working professional with responsibilities and obligations, and I did the best I could to get there on time. I provided all the completed paperwork that had been emailed to me. He did not care. He said "Bro, you were late..." I explained to him that, at this point, we still had 45 minutes left. Again, he refused to see me. I explained to Dr. Webb that I was obviously upset, after having waited for weeks and taken the time to fill out all the forms, then take off work, rush to drive 13 miles to his office, and then be denied medical treatment when my time was still scheduled and available. His response was a calm and condescending, "You don't have to come back." After an already busy and difficult day, that was the last thing I was prepared to hear. In the end, it's his business and he can choose to treat people however he wants and deny service if he so chooses; however, I found it unprofessional and lacking empathy for a community he says he seeks to serve. Apparently, Dr. Webb doesn't need the business.
