It builds up their immunity they say. =) Our little one picked up a little pink eye in one of her eyes. I called ahead to make sure it was okay to bring her in as our primary care doctor couldn't get her in for 2 weeks. The two young ladies at the front were so sweet. If it is your first visit and you are an adoptive parent or guardian you must have your paperwork with you. I had just been the the ER for another one and they required the paperwork to, but not being to Banner they don't have it. The office girl really tiptoed around me and felt bad me having to run home first to get it. I understood as there is a lot going on in the world with families and it is important. It is her job. I was very kind about it. I ran back really fast and came back. Our visitor paperwork had already been filled out, so were taken back right away. PA John was super kind and friendly. We were in and out in a jiffy. I hope I never have to, but would gladly come back if we need to.

I started seeing Dr. Marquard because I found him on the Ehlers-Danlos foundation website. I've…read morebeen seeing the office for about seven months now, and I am extremely pleased with the care that I've received from all of the providers. Because I am a frequent user of the practice's patient portal, I do not mind the $50 administrative fee because I feel it is necessary to balance out the extra work that they have because of the patient portal. For patients with EDS, this office is a godsend as so few doctors acknowledge the disorder, more or much less treat the disorder. I appreciate the added bonus of having in-house counseling and the in-house lab. Every time I go in, I am greeted warmly and well taken care by the administrative staff and medical professionals.

In my opinion, based on my experiences described below, Thunderbird Family Medicine and their…read moreassociated practitioners are UNETHICAL and MONEY GRABBERS. They will hold your refills and lab orders "hostage" to make you come into the clinic so they can charge you another co-pay and bill your insurance for another office visit. Background. I went to the same doctor for almost 20 years. Unfortunately, he had a stroke and could no longer practice medicine. We had a great relationship. Every year, I would faithfully pick up my lab orders, get my labs drawn, then schedule my yearly appointment to discuss the results and make any necessary changes. If something unusual came up mid-year, I would make an appointment to see him. If I needed a specialist, he would recommend a good one. Perhaps I was spoiled with this kind of patient-doctor relationship. When searching for a new primary care doctor, I asked my friends who lived nearby for a referral. Dr. Scott Marquard with Thunderbird Family Medicine received a lukewarm recommendation and had decent reviews, so I decided to give him a try. It turned out to be a BIG mistake.  Red Flag #1. The clinic charges a yearly fee just for the privilege of going to them.  Red Flag #2. On my initial appointment with Dr. Marquard, I brought in my 20 year history printed out for him along with recent lab work. My vitals were taken by the technician and I waited for the doctor. He came in, shook my hand, then we had a ~15 minute discussion, then he shook my hand and left. No look at the eyes, ears, throat. No listen to the lungs or heart. No nerve reflex test. No palpations. Nothing. Only conversation in which we discussed my current prescriptions and an upcoming international trip, among other things. I was told to call in for future prescriptions refills. Red Flag #3. When I called to get my prescriptions renewed, I was told by the front desk that I needed to make an appointment. This was contrary to what we had discussed on my first visit. When I asked the front desk to ask the doctor about it, she confirmed that I needed an appointment. My resolution was to call 98 point 6 (my telephone insurance service) and pay $5 to get my prescriptions renewed (they asked to see my lab work which was current). Red Flag #4. When it was time to get my annual bloodwork done, I called to get a test added to the lab order (I found out about a test that could tell if you had a genetic disposition for blood clots - my dad died of a DVT). I was told by the front desk that I needed to make an appointment. When I asked the front desk to ask the doctor about it, she confirmed that I needed an appointment. My resolution was to skip that test and go ahead and get my blood drawn. Red Flag #5. As my international trip to India and Nepal was getting close, I called to get prescriptions for an anti-nausea and antibiotic "just in case" as we had discussed during the initial meeting. Guess what? I was told by the front desk that I needed to make an appointment. When I asked the front desk to ask the doctor about it, she confirmed that I needed an appointment to discuss CDC guidelines. My resolution was to wait until my annual and visit an expensive travel clinic that would be much more knowledgeable about international travel.  Red Flag # 6. After my annual and after my international trip, I called in to get a prescription refilled. Guess what???  I was told by the front desk that I needed to make an appointment. When I asked the front desk to ask the doctor about it, she confirmed that I needed an appointment. I called again when I was almost out of medication, I told the front desk that the situation was "b*llsh#t", and that I had been in 8 weeks prior and my lab work was only 9 weeks old. She refused to connect me to a doctor, so I tried to use their portal to make the request to the doctor directly. Dr. Marquard told me via the portal that I verbally assaulted the staff and was terminated from the clinic. This was not a huge disappointment as I had already researched, found, and made a future appointment with another primary care doctor.  Note #1. All this occurred in a period of less than 8 months. Note 2. I saw another provider (NP - nurse practitioner) other than Dr. Marquard for my annual. I can't find the name as my access to the portal has apparently been terminated. I remember that a PA signed off on the visit (also a red flag???). So, patient BEWARE!!! I highly recommend finding another clinic if you value your time and money. If you choose to go to this clinic and see these practitioners, make sure to get prescriptions filled and lab work orders in hand before you leave their office.

We visited this emergency room on March 18, 2026. My wife came in with abdominal pain. The doctor…read moreordered a CT scan, an ultrasound, and blood work -- then we sat and waited nearly four hours because everything was sent out to an outside provider. When the doctor finally came back, he told my wife she had cancer on the liver with metastasis. We were absolutely terrified. He scared us beyond words. We decided to get a second opinion at another hospital. Come to find out, they were hemangiomas -- completely benign. No cancer at all. That older doctor had no business delivering a devastating diagnosis like that without being sure of what he was reading. He should be retired. On top of the emotional nightmare they put us through, the bill came in at $41,000 -- and we're stuck paying $3,000 out of pocket. It feels like they were just running the clock and ordering unnecessary outside services to charge the insurance company as much as possible. It's outrageous, and it's no wonder insurance costs keep going up for everyone. Do not go to this emergency room. It is hands down the worst. Between the misdiagnosis that had us believing my wife was dying and the astronomical bill for incompetent care, I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone.

I love that she stays on schedule and if you know you tend to run late, put an earlier time on your calendar so you are respectful of everyones time.

Thank you Lord for this beautiful day, I give thanks for your blessings. My angel woke sick today,…read moregive me the strength to hold and care for him through your glory and grace. Amen! As parents we have to choose. We have to make choices, those hard ones? Is it worth going to the doctor? It's just a fever! Let them sleep it off. Here's my story of why not to ignore a fever. Why not ignore a fever? A few years back I lost one of my sisters to the flu. It all started with a fever. So when any of my children, friends and families children we never mess around with a fever. The fever tells us "hey you, something is wrong here!" Take care of this please?! That's exactly while we are sitting here in the car waiting for further instructions on how to get checked in and all here at Urgent Care. Now that we are sitting in a waiting room, one other patient sits across from us. Beware with the new COVID rules going to the emergency room has a whole new set of rules. Usually, they only want the patient to be seen, even if they are a child. I have no time for this rule. I understand that we are trying to contain a virus and one never knows the diagnosis but what's it gonna hurt to have mama holding your hand. The nurse felt the same way and allowed me to accompany my son in the room in the back. All you need is the mask, but if you forget the ER staff has you. When you get sick all you want is mama? Connor kept looking back as he coughed from that cold bed. They stick him with needles to ensure that he's healthy. Tube after colorful tubes of his red blood flow out flooding the tube. He's such a trooper, not even screaming or crying. I can see it in his eyes, that glazed over look. He's so tired and can not breath with all that congestion. He wishes that he was able to cough it all up. When we came to the urgent care they are super through and asked Connor his level of pain. They put him on a sedative drip so that he could get comfortable. They informed me that since he came in with a 109 fever, he will not leave until it breaks. I agreed and left his health in their hands. As the nurses worked on us and other patients we were asked on numerous occasions if we were comfortable. The room that we were in had a bed that Connor relaxed in and I sat right next to the bed holding his hand. Remembering back when they were so young, I get lost in the memories as I sit here in silence. The room has a television and great privacy. As we wait I dozed off next to Connor. The doctor came back in what seemed such a short amount of time, or so it seemed. Needing that short nap after being up all night with Connor I feel fresh and awake now. Just need coffee. That's later back to Connor. Breaking the fever is key. The staff informed me that since it is so high, they need to put him in an ice bath. Temperatures that high can cause brain damage of not broken. The Tylenol and ibuprofen mix did not work, only bring it down a few degrees. Connor was put in an ice bath being dipped for five minutes in and then five minutes out for about thirty minutes. After attending and aiding the nurses that the color came back to Connor. He was put back in the bed in some fresh hospital digs with the drip medication put back into his veins. One can never know what's going to happen. It may seem such minimal impact that was done for Connor; he's healthy and smiling now. The fever is not all gone, but when we left it was 101. Instructions were given to me for continued home care. I was told they would call my phone and follow up with us. Now that we're home, the instructions that I was given were easy to follow. Any concerns that arise I was told to return immediately to the urgent care. I feel that the staffs kindness was one of the best blessings one can have. They eased my nerves and kept me calm. Yes us mamas tend to get emotional when our kids are sick. They sent the prescriptions to a local pharmacy. All this work was much appreciated. Knowing that this is just their job. Health care individuals put their lives in jeopardy every moment to celebrate your health and happiness. Much love to all the happiness and stillness that you were able to give my angel. Sometimes it feels that we continue to fail, putting off if the fever is just a wonderful little nothing. In the eyes of our children we are super hero's. Trust your instincts and know that you can do it! For our children their is nothing that we will not do. For you are brave, strong, and smart!
