This is absolutely the most frustrating office! Even booking an initial appointment with them is…read morequite frustrating. By the time you go and fill your form online, they give you a fake appointment and then you have to wait another two weeks to be seen . Half the time the phone is only answered with a rude hello. The office staff is constantly (except for the 1 new guy) is rude, short tempered, always on their cell l phone, efficient at some things is the nicest thing I can say. I would run and never come back except I LOVE and respect the expertise of the DR. If I could deal with just him and the clinical staff it would be the best experience. I have tried to schedule a call with him 3 times to let him know and I have never receive call back. They sat on submitting insurance information for two weeks and then lied about it until I asked for the documentation and then there was not even apology. There was just a answer of "sometimes we get busy." It is not worth your time money or emotional energy to go to this office until Dr. Is able to get a handle on his team. It's now been almost 2 months of the process to try to have a small procedure to help with pain management and we've gotten no further along in the game. Disappointment is an understatement.

I called yesterday and arrived super early, thinking that it would be flooded with patients, but to my surprise - it was just me. I presented my order to the receptionist - who quickly took my information. Within 5 minutes, the phlebotomist called me back and my labs were complete. This facility is so clean, efficient, and the staff is so kind. To my knowledge - they do PT, lab draws, and imaging there. If you are in the Tampa Bay area and need any of these services through BayCare, I highly recommend this facility!

Doctor Echevarria was running behind appointments but it was understandable. I thought he would be able to be my Surgeon for my hiatal hernia but unfortunately he is not up to par on robotic surgeries that deals with hiatal hernias or hasn't done them much to feel safe with the surgery that I need since my surgery is a complex or hard surgery. He did not charge me for a office visit due to being sent to his office for something he can not do and this was very nice for him to do so. But my troubles he did refer me over to another surgeon he knows that deals with hiatal hernias with robotics. The office lobby is a small to a medium size with a small tv and free WIFI for the patient to use while waiting to be called to see the doctor. The patient rooms are some what small but nothing to worry about.

I had my annual mammogram today at 8:30 this facility and the technician treated my exam as if it…read morewas not important. She greeted me and told me what to do to prepare. During the exam she did not tell me to hold my breath when the machine was going. I asked her why didn't she tell me and she said oh it looks good. What?!?!? I also do not feel she situated my breast in the machine accurately either. Mammograms are critical to detection and her half hearted exam does not make me feel secure in my results. I do not trust her reading my results or my result at this point. I have gone here for years and never experienced this lack of thorough service before. I have tried to reach a manager but everyone keeps sending me back to the switch board. I will give them a call first thing tomorrow morning. P. Jackson

Let's just say we've been through the ringer with doctors so it was beyond refreshing when we met…read moreDr. Patel. He is passionate and cares about his patients. He doesn't just read what's on the paper and interested in prescribing meds. Instead he took the time to explain kidney function and recommend diet and exercise to get us back to where normal is. He took 2 hours with us, dedicated to us and reading through all bloodwork and testing that's been done. He simplified the medical terminology and broke things down to where we could understand. I love how he treats you like a person and not a number. It's the absolute best experience we've had with a specialist! I finally feel like we have someone who cares and is going to help us treat and fix the kidney issues we are currently faced with. Dr. Patel gave us the insight and treatment plan that we needed. If you are in need of a kidney specialist I highly recommend Dr. Patel.

Dr. Meyers retired! Sad time as he was the only person keeping me at this practice because he truly…read morecared for his patients. He just didn't write scripts for unnecessary prescriptions or tests. He took time with each patient and you could truly see his care. Now it's been a little while since I've been as I typically only go for my routine exams for prescription renewals. Keep in mind I've been coming here for years and I've also been on the same meds for longer than I've been coming here. I called a few weeks ago to schedule my routine exam and was told at that time that they'd send a note to the nurse practitioner for my script refills since I booked my appointment. They'd also get my blood work script out to my home address as I'd need to get that done about a week or two before my visit. Today I called because no script received to date and I was notified by my pharmacy that my script refill was denied. Spoke to the receptionist who informed me that the nurse denied my refills because she wanted to see me first. Also informed that she didn't approve my blood work because she needs to meet with me to determine what I actually need. Keep in mind I only have 10 days worth of meds left so irritated I explained that this was absurd. I cannot just simply stop taking my meds for weeks while the nurse determines next steps. I've been on these for years and there's been no change to my health to indicate it's ok to stop taking and even the warning on the meds state to not stop taking unless consultation with a doctor which I've had no consultation or tests to confirm it is ok to stop taking. In looking through my file she noticed that I was coded as a new patient so she explained since that wasn't correct she'd send my file back through to see if she'd approve. Today I just couldn't take it anymore and changed due to my experience. I just had enough and switched to another practitioner. I should not have to deal with the mere stress of this. I mean come on!

Sun Lake is a part of the same medical family as the former Northwest Family Medical Center on Linebaugh, and so it was quite easy transferring my chart up to the new office.

Dr. Meyer has been a family practitioner since 1989, and was an Army General Medical Officer in Desert Shield and Desert Storm before that. He is extremely knowledgeable, very personable, and really takes the time to get to know his patients. It's not uncommon to spend an extra few minutes talking about a new exercise program that I can use while traveling, or discussing the medicinal benefits of various types of hot tea, or even the details on that really good restaurant that I discovered last weekend. The mission statement in the examination rooms really says it all, "To provide the most compassionate and best quality care possible for each individual in order to enhance his or her quality of life. This includes not only physical care but also spiritual, mental, and educational support." That really says it all for me, and it explains why I will continue to go out of my way to see Dr. Meyer.
