My wife, who rarely gets sick called today to see a Doctor regarding a rash and muscle ache and was told they could not see her until March (3 months from now)! The reason, she hasn't been seen by a practice doctor herself for 3 years. The office administrator claimed this was an insurance requirement, but when I checked with my provider and my insurance broker I was told this is done so the practice can use a different billing code that has a higher payout to the practice. It's a shame how this once "family" practice has evolved since Dr. Harrington's retirement, that they care more about being able to get a bit more money than actually caring for their patients.

Doctors Lorena and Kevin Harvey opened Physicians of Family Medicine over twenty years ago, at their Oxbridge office. I do not know the exact year, but I have been a very satisfied patient for over twenty years. I have been extremely happy with her husband (Dr. Kevin) as my primary care provider for most of those years. When he retired, I was worried about getting another primary care physician and tried his replacement, Dr. Marshall. I was not happy with him and was told I might like Dr. Lorena better. The office staff was correct and I have been very happy with Dr. Lorena Harvey. She has seen me through many rough times and I have a great respect for her. I have a hard time scheduling appointments around my work schedule and they are always willing to work around my schedule to be sure I get the great service I desire and need. She works out of their Cloverhill office located at 13861 Hull Street Road, Midlothian VA. 23112. It is not exactly on Hull Street Road so I do not know how they got this exact address, but it is across from Food Lion and Burger King just off of Hull street next to Outback Steakhouse. Also, a quick note that if she does not have an appointment available when you need one, there are a number of other doctors in the office that may be able to fir you in their schedules, and their Oxbridge office is open on Saturdays for walk-ins, no appointment necessary. Again, I am extremely fortunate to have her as my Primary Care Physician. Steven "Randy" Brooks

Came here for my first physical in years, figured I was overdue for one. Dr. Kent took care of me…read morefairly well, and he was very straightforward in his approach which I greatly appreciated. Dr. Kent was one of my options as a member of the Anthem Healthkeepers section of Bluecross, and he had quite a lengthy service record as a physician, so I opted for him. His office was very quaint, didn't look like a doctor's office from the outside at all. Parking was easy, and the front desk employee was pleasant enough. They asked me to call my insurance company later to have Dr. Kent listed as my PCP, though when I did so later I was told that that was unnecessary and that Dr. Kent would definitely be properly compensated regardless; I get the feeling that many of Kent's patients have been a little problematic in terms of payment based on the way the employee approached the situation. I didn't have to wait very long at all before Dr. Kent came to get me. We went through the process of taking my history and basic measurements, though he did seem a bit rushed in doing so; his explanation was that one of his nurses wasn't there that day, so it's understandable I suppose. After that I was whisked down the hall to do the usual fluid tests and that process was about what you'd expect from a place of this nature, though they did it very expediently. Returned to Kent post-tests a few minutes later and he saw nothing of note on my lab results. Need to lose a little weight, though I was well-aware of that before I came in (if you see all my restaurant reviews on here, it shouldn't be any surprise that I have gained a few pounds!). A few days later, he called me back with the additional lab results and told me that everything checked out and that he wished me much luck in the future as I would likely not have to return for a year or two. Overall, he seemed quite nice and well-informed and I would likely return to him for another yearly checkup or if I was experiencing general problems. I'd take him over PatientFirst anyday! Overall: 4.0 stars ----------- Pros: - He has lots of experience, he's straightforward, and he's attentive. - Easy parking. - Very short wait, and your visit probably won't take too long. Cons: - Admittedly, I did feel rushed through the history-taking process. If there had been something wrong with me, I would have been a bit worried that he might have missed something. - The practice has a very informal feel to it, though it doesn't really detract from the quality of care you're receiving.

I've never had a hard time getting an appointment and every other doctor he's given me referrals to have been great as well. Best. Doctor. Ever. Seriously, I can't say enough good things.
