Jeannine Francis is a NP not a doctor and I'm sorry to say is not my cup of tea. Tried to give her so many chances to change my mind over the years. But always comes off pretty cold, with lack of eye contact and a feeling of not really caring. Feels like it's not genuine, more going through the motions. Has forgot to put in scripts for me and at one point I literally told her she has terrible bedside manner. I have heard from at least 5 others their shared experience. Go to the urgent care instead.

Dr Walter Maier has been my primary care physician for several years. I like having a Dr nearby…read morethat always works me in when something comes up. From lab work that I need to get done regularly to the friendly office staff. Sue in referrals is the best, and usually has everything taken care of within minutes, not days. Austin the office manager is professional, friendly and easy to work with. Dr Maier listens to my concerns and works with me to achieve the goals I set each year. From Diet and exercise, to preventive maintenance. Recently found out he was an ER doctor for many years, which is nice to know in case I ever do have an emergency. I'm grateful to have Dr Maier and his staff, plan to stay as long as his practice is open. Lastly, even prescriptions are easy to refill, either by mail or in person at a local pharmacy. No complaints in all the years I've been a patient. He has a large patient base, but if you call and ask to be worked in if anyone cancels, you can usually be seen latwr that day by phone/video or within the week. Beats driving dth and MCH is a fantastic local hospital. Sincerely, Mike Wyatt

My biggest Shock was at the first of the year , (2024) When I walked into the office and one of his staff approached me and told me I had a balance due of $255! I immediately said What!? This is literally my first appointment of the year! His Accountant girl in the back said Oh, yes , that's your medicare deductible! ‍ In my entire life of being on Medicare never ever have I heard of this scam before! That day he ordered some labs, and a mammogram. And of course his office called me to come in so he could go over the mammogram, , and when I did , he literally sat down and said " well.... I guess, I'm supposed to go over this mammogram with you...." ‍‍‍ seriously! That took all of 3 minutes! The Best part is .. the Labs he ordered apparently Medicare didn't want to pay for.. I didn't find out until 1 year later! (1/11/2025) I'm appealing the $383 to Medicare, So I asked Dr Maiers if he could write a Letter Supporting his decision to order the Labs 1 year ago, He actually had the nerve to CHARGE ME $40!!! To write the Letter! As Well As say And I can't Guarantee This Will help.. His Front Office Staff are Extremely Nice , but this is a small mountain Community, and It's Not Fair to Treat Ppl Like This.... Especially Seniors..

I've been with Dr Maier for several years, and have nothing but the highest respect and…read moreappreciation for him and his staff. They have always worked me in someway. Either by phone/zoom or if there's a cancellation. I was surprised to read the one bad review associated with Dr Maier, because my experience is in complete contrast. I need a lot of lab work done during the year, so Dr Maier gives me a stat order that is good for 6 months at a time. I just go the the Hospital and it's already approved. His staff is top notch between the office manager Austin and Sue in Referrals. I feel they take my well being as serious as I do. Yes Dr Maier has a lot of patients, but isn't that a good thing, kind of like a busy local restaurant that all the locals like to eat at. Sometimes the price to pay for good service is that ypu might need to wait or make an appointment. And if it's a life threatening situation then that's what Emergency Rooms are for. On a side note Dr Maier used to be an ER doctor, which I find reassuring. The staff has changed somewhat over the past decade, but I feel they have only gotten better and more helpful. Lastly, I feel more like a friend than a patient. Which IMHO is important. Sincerely, Micheal Wyatt

Dr. Maier is both a nice man and a good doctor. BUT - with that said, he is terribly over booked…read moreand when I called this morning with a raging ear infection (it was a Monday), I was told that I couldn't be seen for THREE days. When I explained how severe the pain was, they said, "Drive down the mountain and go to urgent care." When I explained that would rupture my ear drum, they said, "Why don't you go to Rite Aid and get some over-the-counter ear-pain drops?" (Those don't exist and they don't cure ear pain). I had to switch him from my primary care doctor. The doctor upstairs (Dr.. Elwood Cohen) saw me in TEN minutes. Ten minutes! I was right - my ear infection was so bad it was going to rupture. I called Maier's office back and spoke to his medical assistant and she was both snotty and rude. Bad front-and-back office staff ruin a medical practice. Pick a doctor who will actually see you when you're sick. Isn't that what doctors are for?

What started a week ago was horrendous when attempting to speak, hear, swallow, and the inability to blow my nose AT All, I am now in great discomfort with my eyes as well, and was finally given antibiotics in case it may be a bacterial secondary infection. Two different doctors, not 5 minutes with either of them, and I don't think they even considered my autoimmune disease in treating me. Some of the staff at the hospital are wonderful. I feel sorry it can't have a better reputation. This is at least my 3rd review over the past 25 years living here.

More precisely, California will be. See you in court! Came in with multiple emergency health issues. Main thing I will mention here is that I came in with an inner ankle injury and a FULLY NUMB LEG for 10 days due to said acute inner ankle injury. 10 days of a fully numb leg. Finally gathered the strength to go to the hospital. Doctor improperly diagnosed me and said "Yeah you probably have a pinched nerve or something in your spine." Huh? No....It's likely Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome, a severed nerve right where the impact wound is and injury occurred. Leg still numb. Still "concerned for my health" as I stated many times to them. Different ER here I come! These time wasting negligent idiots let me leave the hospital despite telling them I felt scared to go. They essentially tossed me on the street. Never thought this would happen in my own country. Thank God for lawyers. You, "doctor" (not putting a capital letter, as that denotes importance) are the reason nobody has faith in this healthcare system anymore. Avoid. This. Hospital. Don't let your insurance companies give them their (your) hard earned money.

Doctor is very good but Arrowhead office staff and nurse don't seem to care…read more First round the nurse disposed my urine sample instead of sending it to the lab, "because there was no blood in the urine". Had to come next day to submit another one. Meanwhile, there was no way to get a response from the doctor till I actually came to the appointment. Few days after I spoke to the doctor I decided to do at-home pH test that showed I needed specific antibiotic. Took a full day of calling the office and texting the nurse. Was about to go to ER since my symptoms worsened when got a call from the nurse saying she sent prescription in for me. Got 90 antibiotic pills from pharmacy with no indication of how long to take them for - obviously, very possible mistake. Texted the nurse - no response, called office - took efforts to convince them that something may be wrong and I need to double-check with the doctor. Called another line and at last found out that it's only 7 and not 30 days I should take antibiotic for. Very frustrated! UPD: right after I posted this review, got a text response from the nurse, picture attached
