Earlier this week I had my first and last visit to the practice of Dr. Jason Luciano at his…read moreAspinwall PA Office. I was referred to him by my PCP to have a cyst removed. The procedure seemed to go well and I returned to my office. Once there I noticed that my back felt wet and, as you can see in the photo, the wound was leaking blood. I called Luciano's office and spoke with a nurse who I told I was back at the office and the wound needed attention. He suggested I get gauze and tape and apply it to the wound. I noted that I couldn't do it myself since the wound is on my back. What was I supposed to do? Strip to the waist and ask a colleague to do it? I then told the nurse I was immediately returning to Luciano's office. When I arrived the Physician's Assistant treated the wound and redressed it. I asked to speak with the doctor but was told he wasn't available and I could speak with the Office Manager. My conversation with her was, to put it mildly, highly unpleasant. I won't be returning to this doctor and I've made arrangements to have the sutures removed by my PCP.

I wanted one doctor that took care of everything, that actually knew me. The direct care model is exactly that. Low monthly fee, direct access to your doctor via phone, text or email, and next day appointments! One appointment at Medexpress would cost me $250 due to my high deductible. Now I never have to go to an urgent care ever again!

The staff did a good job for my regular checkup last year, but this year they messed up some…read morethings. I needed to have a form filled out for nursing school, and after a month of five visits, they filled out only half of the form. The front desk scheduled my first appointment for a day when I could not have a test done. The doctor and physician's assistant did not seem to closely read my form, and I had to keep reminding them of what needed to be filled out. I ended up going out of network and paying out of my own pocket to get the remaining tests completed. I will not return to this doctor again.

This also is the first UPMC practice that I visited where I felt like I was a valued patient--the appointment was on-time, the staff was polite and attentive, and the facilities were very clean. The nurses were very kind and made sure to get complete information. I liked them a lot. One of the nurses--Marianne--immediately noticed that I needed a vaccination booster. Apparently, I'd needed it for years and no other medical professional has noticed this. Kudos. Dr. Reasbeck is a gem. Very thorough and funny and professional. He thoughtfully answered my questions and I didn't feel rushed. They really don't make 'em like this anymore. Come a bit early for your appointment. Since this is in the Heinz building, you have to sign in with security and get a visitor's badge to swipe through to the elevators. It only took a couple minutes, but I went after "rush hour." I imagine there would be a longer line if you had an early or late appointment.

Looking for a primary care physician? You can't do better than Dr. March. She is, hands-down, the…read morebest PCP I've ever had! She always runs late for appointments (seriously, usually an hour or so). But she is well-worth the wait. She runs late for appointments because she actually spends time listening to you and talking with you. She never rushes you and will spend an hour with you if needed. She will never make you feel rushed. She is proactive on treatment of anything and also a registered nutritionist. She will never say "well, let's see if your leg falls off first before we do something". She knows your history, will take action when needed, and also give you a reality check even if uncomfortable. I am seriously dreading the day when I move away from Pittsburgh and have to find another PCP, because none have ever or will ever be as great as Dr. March. Definitely choose her and don't stress about the wait.
