UPDATE: This the…read morefirst time I've ever had such a strong range of opinions about a business practice. I still think Dr. Ilyas is a good physician - but I'm decidedly less enamored of her / the office as I was initially. Turns out - they deliberately prescribed a different allergy Rx than the one I'm used to - simply because they couldn't find it in eScribe. It took an insane amount of back and forth via WellStar MyChart messages to get it resolved. Walgreen's was nice - but they told me, they just didn't understand why someone from the physician's office didn't just pick up the phone to call them. Keep in mind - I gave them a TYPEWRITTEN list. And remember when I said she offered to order the annual labs I need as a GBS patient. Whelp! She reneged on the offer. Lol. Initially, I declined the offer because there's a lot of them I figured I 'd just get Dr. Jean-Pierre to order them. I told warned Dr. Ilyas that there were quite a few labs and her exact words were, "No problem. If you change your mind, just let us know. I'd be more than happy to order them for you." But later I wound up having to make yet another trip to south Ga - got stuck there for over a week dealing with real estate closings and probate stuff. And, of course, Dr. Jean-Pierre's nurse refused to order the labs I needed. (Check my other Yelp review for more on that.) So I decided to message Dr. Ilyas to take her up on her offer. When I sent Dr. Ilyas the full list of labs I needed, all of sudden, she told me that she'd prefer that I let my other doctor order them. Hunh? We messaged back and forth and I explained my reluctance to go for labs on two separate occasions when I could kill the two proverbial birds with one stone - but she held firm. I accepted her decision, but I must admit - I still don't understand why she changed her mind. The other problem I experienced was related to another Rx she called in for a trial 30 days usage. After 30 days elapsed, as directed I messaged her a request for a dosage increase. Her office sent an Rx for higher dosage, for 15 days, with instructions to break the pills in half (which would have resulted in putting me back at the current dosage). It took several messages back and forth to get them to understand and correct the error. But because of their mistake, my insurance company refused to fill the new Rx and out of pocket cost is over $75. This was another instance where I feel that picking up the phone and calling me (or the pharmacy) would have saved me countless HOURS (and I'm not exaggerating) with Walgreens and Ambetter. Keep in mind - this was not a language barrier issue - I messaged the staff via WellStar MyChart with my exact needs, and a brief recap / reminder of what she'd said and prescribed during the initial visit. With the current state of the world, I don't know that I'll be switching providers any time soon - it was hard enough to get an appt with HER - because a lot of doctors are not taking new patients at the moment - but I'm definitely feeling a lot less optimistic about my care under this provider. Mistakes with Rx's can cost people their lives and while the medications in question were not a class of medications that could cause death, this level of carelessness and lack of attention to detail makes me nervous. This really should be a 2 star "I've experienced better" review. Or perhaps even a 1 star review. But I'm combining original 5 star review with a 1 - 2 star review - which averages out to a 3 star review. ORIGINAL REVIEW - I had a bit of trouble finding the office because I turned in but didn't notice the low slung single story building right near the entrance, but even once I circled around the parking lot and came back to it - it wasn't immediately clear which of these buildings housed Suite 220. Upon my entrance, I was happy to see an empty waiting room. :-) The front desk associates / medical receptionists were pleasant and efficient. My wait time was less than 4 minutes. Dr. Ilyas was pleasant and professional. We went over my medical history and she offered to order my labs and take over management of my endocrinology care. She did not make me feel rushed and seemed to genuinely care about my health and well-being - unlike some physicians who seem to be pretty burnt out and just counting the days til retirement. Lol. Her assistant, Fatima (sp?), was also a joy. I'd typed and emailed myself a list of all the vitamins and herbs I'm currently taking - along with some maintenance meds I take as needed (stuff for allergies, stomach spasms, etc). The visit went great and I am looking forward to a great relationship with my new primary care physician.

want to start by saying the front office staff are truly lovely, kind, and welcoming. That was…read morehonestly the most positive part of my experience. I came in hopeful that I had finally found a gynecologist who would listen to me and help address my lifelong struggle with painful periods, along with other physical changes I've been dealing with as I get older. I also carry anxiety from poor care I've received in the past, so finding the right provider really matters to me. Kara Chestnut NP was referred by a PCP I trust, so I went in with a lot of hope. Unfortunately, that hope didn't last long. At my very first visit, some of my concerns were quickly dismissed because they "didn't look that bad," despite this being the first time she had ever met me. I chose to move forward anyway, trusting the referral and wanting to give the process a fair chance. I scheduled a follow-up appointment for what I was told would be a test/procedure. Per their policy, I paid about $250 upfront expecting that service. However, due to an error on their end, I was scheduled for a basic follow-up discussion instead--without having completed all necessary testing (including an ultrasound). The appointment ended up being unhelpful, as we couldn't even fully review my situation. When I brought this up, I was told they don't even perform that procedure on the day I was scheduled. As a new patient, I relied on their office to schedule me correctly, so this was incredibly frustrating. I was left feeling anxious, dismissed, and stuck paying for an appointment that shouldn't have happened in the first place. There was an apology, but no real resolution--no refund, no credit applied--just a suggestion to schedule more appointments (and spend more money). To make matters worse, after this error, I received an email dismissing me as a patient from the practice. While I did not plan on returning, I found this incredibly distasteful given the situation--especially after being told they wanted to help me. Additionally, their lab system was difficult to access. Despite multiple attempts, I was never able to log in. I had to call to receive my results over the phone, and even then was told to wait and discuss them in person at my next visit--which ended up being the incorrect appointment. Overall, while the staff is kind, my experience felt disorganized, dismissive, and costly. If you choose to come here, be aware that you may be asked to pay upfront--even if scheduling errors occur--and that your concerns may not be fully acknowledged.

Before seeking a new Provider I have to do my due diligence. One of the biggest things I "expect"…read moreis not to be rushed with my appointment, especially an initial appointment. Unless my wait is 30+ minutes past my appointment time, I stay patient as I appreciate not being hurried during my time/exam. Emory has been doing really well on that aspect. To that end, my effort brought me to Dr. Gustafson, who surpassed delightful engagement & patient care. Before seeing Dr. Gustafson, I waited less than 5 minutes before her Medical Assistant Shantell brought me back for my vitals. Her personable & lighthearted demeanor added to my anticipation of a positive visit. A few minutes later Dr. Gustafson came in & throughout my examination, it felt like we were having a book club through a GYN lens. I'm well pleased with the interactive time & conversation with Dr. Gustafson as she gave me more insights & practical ways to integrate the "Seasoning" GYN insights into my life. I'm a firm believer that a great Doctor is only as great due to their team. From walking in & leaving Nicole, the Front Desk Representative reminded me of myself with her uber spirit & frequency. The way she navigates patients regarding the C-19 mandates was polite & impressive. During lunchtime & in the main lobby of the building, different restaurants rotate in offering food for purchase. In addition to the nearby parking lots & garages, Valet is a flat fee of $7. I really lucked up with Dr. Gustafson & her team, I can not be happier & satisfied with my appointment.

Long story short, I had a REALLY scary reaction to the combo - I took all as prescribed, dosage and timing wise - and basically had a near stroke and all the OD symptoms. After I was put to bed and felt ok the next morning, I called Dr Foster's office and his nurse Linda was amazing. I explained what happened and she consulted with him and got back to me - it doesn't happen to everyone but the combination of hydrocodone (lortab)and tramadol (the former being what WellStreet gave me and Dr Foster also prescribed) and the latter added by Dr Foster, can cause such severe reactions. While I took them as directed, if this happens, the best thing is to separate them and taper off the lortab as soon as possible. Haven't had a problem since I made the changes, and the best part? Linda gave me her cell so I can get in touch any time if needed. Would've been good to have avoided the whole frightening experience, but that kind of thing can't be predicted and they were there to help me get it corrected.

After doing my research and getting some crap over the phone from my first choice, I decided to give Piedmont Endocrinology a try. I called and was greeted by a very friendly receptionist. She advised of a recent cancellation and could squeeze me in the following Friday - perfect! She told me I would be seeing Dr. El-Kebbi. I arrived 30 minutes prior to my scheduled appointment to complete all of the new patient paperwork. After I was done, friendly receptionist called me up to the window to advise me that Dr. El-Kebbi was a few minutes behind schedule, but I was his next patient. She apologized for the delay and I went back to playing Jewel Mania. I'm usually super super anal about being on time. Maybe I'm just jaded now because I'm convinced that no doctor is ever on time, but I at least appreciated the fact that she took the time to tell me that he was running a little late. With previous doctors, most just let you sit there until you realize your appointment was supposed to be 45 minutes ago. So 5 or 10 minutes later, I'm called back. I'm taken to an exam room by a super friendly guy who's name escapes me. He also apologizes for the delay and emphasizes that Dr. El-Kebbi really doesn't like being late. We go over some basic info and he advises that the Doc will be in a moment. Let me first say that my previous doctor was a bit standoffish. Nice enough, just didn't seem overly personable or concerned. I experienced the complete opposite with Dr. El-Kebbi. He was warm and friendly and very interested in my medical care. He provided valuable insights into certain aspects of my medical care that I feel were lacking with my previous doctor. I honestly felt like I was speaking with a friend the whole time. There was one awkward moment when he seemed to fail to understand how I could be so certain that I would not be getting pregnant, but we got through that. It's quite funny in retrospect. The whole appointment went exactly how I feel a doctor's appointment should go. I'm almost (but not quite) willing to overlook the tardiness, but we'll see how that goes in future visits. I highly highly recommend Dr. El-Kebbi to anyone in the market for a new endocrinologist.
