Besides my initial visit I needed to come in for an upper respiratory infection. I called late in the afternoon and the receptionist actually got me in early the next morning. The location is so relaxed and patient friendly on hand were snacks, beverages and a large screen tv. Did I mention the fireplace?? I was seen in a rather short time by Dr. Pederson who was extremely patient and attentive. He listened to me and what complaints I was feeling and he took the time to consider my thoughts before he or should I say we took as a course of action. I never felt rushed, I felt like I was heard and I was part of the process in what medical solution that was chosen. I had two other interactions regarding the refilling of prescriptions. I actually requested a prescription on a weekend online on Highland Health's app and wouldn't you know it within a few hours my prescription had been ordered at my pharmacy. I had another prescription that I called into the office and again within hours it was already ordered at the pharmacy. I feel so comfortable and satisfied in my experiences with Dr. Pederson and his friendly caring staff.

First of all you are always given her full attention.. no rushing or long waits. It is her and her two Nurse practitioners , so you never see an unfamiliar face at your visits (I love that).

I am comfortable with her and she always puts my nerves at ease. They always get me in when I need and they have a patient portal for convenience, I have never not got a response with questions or concerns ,they are always on top of it.

When they took me back, the doc took 30min or more to come to my room. When I was told it would be quick... Dr Vy - not a great doctor, IMO, I had been sick with symptoms that mirrored the Cyclospora Parasite outbreak. I mean they fit to a 'T'!! Plus I had eaten at Taco Bell literally 6-7 days prior to the first symptom! My symptoms were - Day 1 Severe nausea/gagging/dry heaving, diarrhea, no appetite. Then somewhere mid day, all of those went away. Then come evening the nausea and diarrhea would slowly start again. Day 2 I felt fine, maybe felt a lil off, no nausea, but did have diarrhea, nausea showed up later that evening, overnight. Day 3 severely nauseous/gagging/dry heaving early morning. No appetite. Half way through the day seemed ok, but very little appetite. Day 4 slept all night and actually woke up hungry and felt great all day! Day 5 all the symptoms showed up again in the middle of the night same as Day 1, bad! This was the day I decided I need to see a doctor. The info was out there about how the symptoms of the "poop lettuce" presented themselves and I was like this has to be that! When the doc came into the room, I explained all of these symptoms and the research. She told me the onset is usually within 2 days (not true - it can present in as early as 2 days- but per the CDC- a week is the average) and my symptoms weren't as severe as everyone else's. I use zofran and essential oils to help my symptoms plus not everyone is the same in their symptoms. I asked for the lab test to test for Cyclospora. She kept asking me about fevers. I said the symptoms I told you are the only symptoms I have had. They never took my temp in the office. 4x she asked about me having a fever throughout the 10-15min she was in the room. She said she couldn't give me an antibiotic without the lab test proving what I had - I didn't ask for that at this appt - I asked for the test. She ordered 3 tests, fortunately, I had the help of AI to determine the one test I requested, she didn't order! I was still in the lobby and asked the front for her to redo the orders because it's a very specific test that has to be requested that looks for Cyclospora. Finally got it. Unfortunately, this was a Thursday and I couldn't get the samples done before the lab closed. Long weekend goes by where Day 6-8 are a repeat of Day 5. Over the wknd I had time to research more about the lab tests, the parasite and the to do's and not to do's. My labs came back negative. Disappointing, but not uncommon, as the specific test for cyclospora is known to need to repeat tests (because of the parasites shedding cycle), but many doctors are trained to know the symptoms and can bypass the negative test to go ahead and prescribe the antibiotics based on the timeline from exposure to symptoms, the symptoms and the manner they present themselves. Or they could request a repeat test. Dr Vy - did none of those. Didn't request for me to come back in (we called to ask for the antibiotics/help because I was in bad shape) or another test. Her advice was to take Imodium and that was it. Off we went to the Mease ER. Where we were seen and heard right away. The ER doc said well, it's very common to need to do MULTIPLE tests because of the parasite shedding cycles- it's very common to get a false negative for Cyclospora. Since, I was dehydrated they gave me IV fluids, while we waited to see if I could provide a sample for them to run another test. Unfortunately, I had depleted my samples in the middle of the night (as that must have been my parasites shedding cycle ‍) and the ER doc made a decision (while advising me of the risks of taking the antibiotic) to go ahead and prescribe the Bactrim based on the timeline and on/off cycles of the symptoms and the specific symptoms. I am on Day 12 of this parasite sickness - but am also on day 3 of antibiotics with symptoms improving every day. First night symptom free with no zofran or oils! So, I'll never go to this urgent care again nor will I ever recommend it - unless it's obvious your bone is broken and this is the only place open.

But I was in the ER with pneumonia Friday, 4/7, and Dr. Burca's office called me Tuesday to ask how I was & to schedule a followup visit. THAT was impressive. Today (4/14) was that follow up, and she is extraordinary. She went over my tests and records from ER, and past records from my previous primary. She was thorough, intelligent, and kind. She recommended a pulmonologist for my prior lung issues, recommended a follow up in a month to be sure the pneumonia was gone, and changed my June appointment to a wellness check & physical. Meanwhile, she asked me to please call if I got worse or needed anything. SHE is impressive! Her office staff is friendly and efficient. Erin was the one who called me Tuesday and I met her today when I checked in. Shameeka took my vitals before I saw Dr. Burca. Tracy checked me out, making my future appointments and giving me paperwork for referral & tests. All three women were cordial and skillful.
