was a patient of Primary Care and Associates in Anderson, South Carolina for nearly 40 years and…read morehad an excellent, respectful relationship with my physician. That relationship was effectively destroyed--not by my doctor--but by office management. I was dropped as a patient over a $30 balance tied to a work-injury insurance claim, not a routine bill. The handling of that claim raised serious concerns for me. The situation was managed administratively, without transparency, and in a way that felt more aligned with protecting outside interests than advocating for a long-term patient. My physician was not allowed to intervene, explain, or continue my care. It was made clear that business policy overrides medical judgment in this practice. Doctors here appear to have little autonomy and are unable to prioritize patient care when office management decides otherwise. What's especially troubling is the lack of accountability afterward. Communication stopped. Questions went unanswered. Responsibility was deflected. It felt less like a medical office and more like an operation focused on minimizing exposure rather than treating people. I want to be clear: my doctor was excellent. This review is not about the physicians, but about an administrative structure that undermines them and sacrifices patient trust. Long-term patients should be extremely cautious. If billing disputes, insurance claims, or workplace injuries are involved, understand that you may be treated as a liability rather than a human being.

This practice has lost the plot…read more With every visit it continues to get worse, on all levels. The lack of consideration that is given to their patients in regards to their time and staying on schedule is unacceptable. Yes, it can happen, however religiously for the past two years every appointment has not been on time. Not just by a few minutes, I'm talking by hours. Appointments are given for a reason, one of which is respect, respect of patients time. There is much time and planning that goes into making an appointment, and for such total disregard is infuriating. In addition to their policy of no refills in between visits or their is a charge. Have you ever heard of such a thing? I'm not asking for a "new" or different prescription but please be sure the medicines that I'm on get me to my next scheduled visit. It is not rocket science. Fun fact about their billing as well, that they do not code a once a year visit ( that insurance covers). They state that visit needs to be separate and you cannot discuss any current conditions you have, it's more or less a physical. However, my insurance covers one "wellness" visit a year. This doctors office will not code this correctly!!! And then there is the overall customer service, which truly should be the easiest to excel in. You would think? Whether it is the front office staff or the apathetic billing/ scheduling clerk to the intake nurse, there are never any pleasantries exchanged. It's just like being a number. And let's not forget the fact that you can never speak to anyone on the phone. The only option is to leave a voicemail and await a call back. So, yes I am exploring other options to change doctors offices. I have had enough abuse as a patient and have reached my boiling point. I do NOT recommend this practice, as you would get better service, respect and consideration at a walk in clinic.

I am sad that I have to make this post after being a patient of Dr Abraham for 9 years. I enjoyed…read morethe empty waiting room and quick visits while my health was good. Sadly, the last 6 months his service has been horrible! He decided that my labs for my thyroid levels were troubling him, despite no complaints from me. He decided to lower my dose of synthroid twice in the 6 months and when I called to complain I felt terrible, I was told I'm fine (after making 3 phone calls about it). He never looked at my chart and realized I had gained 25 pounds nor listened when I told him I was suffering. When it was time for my quartet appointment, he downright argued with me that my labs indicate that I should be using even less of the synthroid. He, reluctantly, upped my dose, saying he was making all kinds of notes that it was against his better judgement, and, lo and behold, I was feeling better within the week. I knew then I had to find another doctor. Today I met with Dr Christian Askew of Anmed and he changed my life! I was actually skipping when I left his office, after spending almost 2 hours talking with him! It turns out because I had thyroid cancer, the numbers for my thyroid levels are much different than someone with a thyroid and now are fully in line with where they should be. Also, Dr Abraham put me on a "memory" medicine that was for Alzheimer's and never even told me that's what it's for. Dr Askew adjusted my other medications that weren't seeming to be working anymore and offered a different way of taking them. He is young, smart and in tune with new information. Unlike Dr Abraham, who is total old school and it's his way or the highway, never wanting to admit a mistake. Well, Dr Abraham, you were wrong about my thyroid levels and made me miserable and when I met with you to get my medications, you could care less that I was leaving your practice after 9 years. Oh, and I also found out I don't have to be seen quarterly, as you require. You just do it so you can bill Medicare! Crook! If you haven't figured out who I am yet, it's Gigi, and I had to use a different email because I left you a positive recommendation 7 years ago! I am so thankful to leave Dr Abraham in the rear view mirror and feel so much more confident with my current care.

They didn't explain to me at all why my request was continuously denied, these are women btw, you would think they would have a bit more of an understanding when it comes to pregnancy losses, and pregnant women with autoimmune diseases. Anyways, they lost three patients today. This is honestly the very first issue I have had over here so it's really disappointing. I have no issues with the doctors I have seen, ( Dr Pollard and Dr Jones-Moon, who actually did tell me two different things in the situation) but their female nurses and office manager both have awful bedside manner considering their professions. I and my mother spoke to these women today, and they are super caddy and unprofessional. All I needed today was reassurance and an explanation, and for some reason these two things are not within their capabilities as healthcare professionals.
