I know I am in excellent hands with her and I'm very grateful. My only frustration is thrying to reach someone by phone. It is rarely if ever answered, which can delay making appointments and questions being answered.

After having been on medication for over twelve years I was required to take a urine drug screen to…read morecontinue, though I had never previously taken one, had changed nothing about frequency or dosage over that time period. My previous doctor at HFP, who was a respectful, intelligent, good-faith partner in my health care, retired. I'd have begged him to stay but he was emotionally exhausted. Can't imagine why. I was tested for heroin, cocaine, barbiturates, fentanyl, marijuana, oxycodone, methadone and other substances. They did not itemize in advance the things they were testing me for - I found out on the results. They tested for weed. Which is none of their business. Go for it, guys. You own my body. You don't need a search warrant. You aren't the government. You can just blackmail me for my health needs. I can only assume that this information will eventually be used to deny me insurance for one reason or another. I just discovered I now owe six hundred dollars for the privilege of carrying a bottle of my own urine down a hallway in full view of other patients to prove that I am not a heroin addict. Passed with flying colors, everyone. I haven't done an interesting drug since 1995 and have never been addicted to anything but cigarettes, which I quit, ages ago, like everyone else. Interestingly, they don't check for cigarettes, which are as addictive as anything, and have quite a bit of historical data supporting their lethal effects. Great news, it is completely fine with whatever corporate behemoth now controls HFP if you smoke cigarettes. Perhaps I should start. They also neglected to mention the $600 insult that awaited me. I guess they thought that was best left unsaid. Honestly, they were probably right on that one. (If you're curious what phenyclidine is - it's on the report on the image, that would be PCP. They tested me for PCP. I am paying $600 for a completely unnecessary test that established that I do not take PCP.) I'm stuck with them, because it is my responsibility to myself and my family to do what it takes to get mental health care. I came very close to not doing it, but I need ADHD medicine to function. When I questioned the requirement, I was told 'everyone is treated the same way' to which I would respond 'Yes, but shouldn't no one be treated like a criminal if there is no evidence they are a criminal other than that they are living their lives?' But I cannot say this, because they will note on the charts that I am 'difficult' - they probably already did - and things will be worse. So here is the result of this: I am in my fifties. Will I get a mammogram? No. Will I get a colonoscopy? No. Will I get a pap smear? You have got to be kidding. Not in a million years. Will I submit to any regular testing of any kind? No. If I have a fever of a 103, will I call them? No. If my appendix bursts, I'll go to the hospital. If I break my arm, I'll go to the hospital. If I get the flu and have a fever for four days, I'll take Nyquil and drink orange juice and suck it up and hope I don't die and if I get close enough to dying, I hope my partner will take me to the hospital. "Parole officers" are not doctors. I hate the medical care I get, and I hate that I can't get better, and I miss Peter Weitzman, a respectful and compassionate doctor. Those don't exist anymore. Oh, and the benzos on the report? Oh my yes. I had to take a Xanax just to get in their doorway. I'm not playing whack-a-mole hunting through the cabled-together conglomerate of a nationally terrible health care system try to put a glass slipper on the kind of doctor that no longer exists. I am clearly emotionally not ready, and you can't call and ask 'do you treat patients like criminals?' because that marks you ask a drug-seeker. This isn't obeying in advance. It's obeying because I have no other options available. Giving them two stars because the techs are kind and competent, the front desk is friendly, and you never have to wait too long to see someone.

I have not been to this practice but while looking for new PCP came across this on Yelp. I called…read morethe number listed merely to ask if they are part of the Baystate Health System. No one answers the phone, just voice mail. If you wanted to become a new patient, you apparently have to download a form online or go directly to the office and pick up a form. To me, a very odd way to do things. I'll look elsewhere.

Dr. Fanti has been my dad's primary care doctor for at least five years and before Dr. Fanti came on to the practice, Dr. Egelhofer was his doctor. They've both been great and so has the entire practice. They are extremely patient with my dad and me, his caretaker, and always get back to us with answers to any questions we have. Dad also appreciates the extra service they have where someone checks in with him via telephone once a month to see how he's doing and then reports to Dr. Fanti. Dad feels very well taken care of and I agree with that assessment. Good folks, great service.

Horrible customer service!!…read more I called from another physician's office in regard to a patient that was referred to us by their office. The receptionist (or whomever answers their phones) was EXTREMELY rude. Their office sent this patient to us, but would not supply the medication to test with -- a test THEIR OFFICE requested we do! If they can be that rude to another physician's office, I cant imagine how they treat their patients! I will NEVER go to them for any reason.
