We told the receptionist our situation and she asked us to wait until she could ask the doc. We waited for about 20 minutes and then she came and told us that since we weren't "established patients" we would have to pay out of pocket. We said ok. She told us she needed to talk to the doc again. We waited again and then she came back and told us to try CVS or RiteAid.

It came to the point were i walked out and she released a chuckle would not recommend this doctor to anyone im not sure how she got to were she is with her attitude very ghetto and unprofessional.

I decided to get myself a local doctor for family practice/general stuff since I don't really have…read moreone....my insurance doesn't require a PCP and I hate going to the doctor, but every now and then something stupid like strep throat comes around and you need one. I came in over the summer actually because I had had a persistent sore throat and wanted to make sure it wasn't strep. My appointment was with Dr. McKell, a new practitioner who has been added to the office. She is absolutely amazing, I might add. She's got a wonderful bedside manner, is incredibly friendly, and will actually listen to you and make you feel like your input is valued. Nowadays, that's rare in a doctor. I've been in once more since then and had the same great experience. Dr. McKell is patient, knowledgeable, and helpful. I can't recommend her highly enough. Their new office is located a little ways down Main St (across from Cetrella). The little parking lot off to the side usually has plenty of spaces. The staff is polite and professional, and the waiting room is clean & bright. Reminds me of the down-home doctor offices of my youth.

HIPPA violations…read more Receptionists don't know how to answer phone calls properly or greet people when they walk in Receptionists not routing messages properly to medical staff when patient has had a stroke fault of doctor Sandra falling asleep during patient visit check ups saying everything is fine and not speaking to patients or seeing why they maybe having certain symptoms. And second doctor he saw didn't do a full work on patient that was having stroke symptoms and patient had to go to the er to find out he had a stroke and due neglect of doctor not running test even showing red flags of patient being in out of the er past month. Missing patient documents such as they are violating hippa and patient privacy and not checking who they are calling before disclosing patient information or knowing where they place forms and at the end lying about having consent forms in the chart that Irma was able to find but according to other staff or nurses can't find unbelievable people are getting paid to give patients the run around. This what the county clinic provides setting patients for failure. Nurse Celina using improper vocabulary words to patients. Telling people to not come in hot what type of way to start an introduction to patients and instead asking who am I speaking to and how are you not who are you and do you have consent. Prior to calling patients they must review patients chart and know who they are calling. When you had been waiting on a phone call for a week for patients medication from a patient having a very recent stroke and now have to wait longer for another Dr to approve it because the Dr is on vacation. What kind of excuses and negligence does the nurse and front staff have. Maybe they all need to be trained and know what's urgent and not. And if your a certified medical staff the receptionist should be giving their two sense about a request they have no legal authority to give medical advice or say well message the Dr and end up not sending a message to the providers. They need a real audit and retrain staff properly and not give patients excuses about it's a new system no excuses to be putting patients safety first

Looks like I'll be the first to write a review about this place. I don't know about all of you, but…read moreI'm very alert, concerned, and iffy when it comes to places I've never been to. Even perhaps when no know has ever written a review about the place at all. First thing, it was difficult finding this place! It's hidden in the back of some sort of old- fashion shopping area. I literally had to do some searching even after the navigation took me to the destination. It's right next to the gas station if you're looking for it. Second, it looked empty when I got inside. There were so many chairs. Perhaps I came in on a less busy day. The employees there were very nice. I was definitely not expecting someone rude, mean, or with attitude. That's definitely a PLUS. My doctors saw me and gave me a full scope on everything! She took care of every detail in terms of my health concerns and anything that I needed (vaccinations for school). I seriously thought that I would be having to see the doctor on multiple visits, but she took care of EVERYTHING today. It's such a far out breach to come out here, but they definitely made my trip worth it!!!
