I've been coming to Family Medical Center for almost the better part of a decade now. I am, for the…read moremost part, fairly healthy with room for improvement (especially dietary-wise). However, I don't typically have a ton of health issues that require ongoing and frequent care. That being said, in the handful of times in which that has changed due to whatever health concerns arisen, this practice has been pretty good about ensuring that I get the most optimal treatment or referrals to specialists for treatment possible. I've been very fortunate that my experience with this practice has been primarily a positive one.
Though, I do take some gripe with the fact that we don't alway get to see our primary care doctors due to scheduling and usually have to opt to see a nurse practitioner in their place. It's not the end of the world, but it is common practice especially if something comes up prior to the traditional annual we receive. Beyond that, even with the nurse practitioner, I've still had really great interactions with ALL the staff that have aided in my care.
So, for as long as I'm a resident of Orange County, I'll be keeping this practice as my go-to primary health care. I must note, that health is a deeply personal journey and it is not always the easiest finding health practitioners that are truly working towards ensuring that you are not only healthy, but that also seek to ensure you maintain that health (or help you get to that point). I sympathize with any and everyone, that have had negative experiences (even here - as my mom has been one to have a negative experience and no longer comes to this practice). I understand, that, as I a noted, I have been very fortunate that my care here has been very positive and I pray it remains as such. I wish nothing but positive journeys to all looking for a practice to call home for their health care. And if it happens to be Family Medical Center like it is for me, then so it is! And if not, that is okay because there are other practices and I wish the best of luck in that search.
As a quick note, before I close this out, they do have two offices right next door to each other. Both have labs, so, if you need lab work, they can perform it in either office. It's pretty convenient. Their main office is larger but their smaller one, is newer. It was once a banking institution if my memory serves me well, that they eventually acquired and gutted to turn into a medical office building. Hence, their close location to the main office.
