I am truly appalled at the way I was treated by the staff at Aiken OBGYN today. I have NEVER…read moreexperienced such unprofessional and inappropriate behavior at a doctor's office before. I met with Christy, the nurse practitioner, a few weeks ago and was prescribed antibiotics. I have been taking the antibiotics for about 5 days and they have been causing me to be very nauseous and sick. I was very sick this morning and was worried about taking the AM dose. I am aware that antibiotics are usually supposed to be taken on a strict schedule, so I called the Aiken OBYN office hoping for guidance. I spoke with a receptionist (as soon as I find out the name I will edit this post), and asked what I should do. She had a very rude tone with me but still transferred me over to Christy's direct phone line, and I left a message regarding my issue. I left the first message at 8:54 AM. Around 11:26AM;, I started getting worried that I wouldn't hear back by the time I would have already missed the morning dose. I decided to give another call to politely ask if it was possible they could mark the voicemail as urgent, so I could ensure a response by the end of the day. I was extremely kind and understanding in my delivery of this. I am aware that they have other patients and I am not the most important person in the world. All I was asking is that they mark the message so it wouldn't be disregarded. After politely asking that question, the receptionist responds to me and says in a very rude tone "the doctors are busy and we can't stop the whole office for you". I was extremely shocked by this and word for word said "I was not asking that, and you really don't need to be rude to me about it." The receptionist seemed to have an attitude change and connected me directly to Christy, the nurse practitioner. Then, I am speaking with Christy and she states she will phone in an anti-nausea medication. After the conversation seemed to be done, I said something along the lines of "I'm sorry if you guys felt I was being pushy, that wasn't my intention, and I know you guys are busy." Christy then responds to me and says, "the receptionist told me you called her an extremely foul name and I would appreciate it if you didn't talk to my staff like that." I told Christy that I asked the receptionist to not be rude with me, and did not call anyone any negative names. She honestly didn't even seem to believe me and I told her I will be writing a review about this. I called back and spoke with the front desk supervisor. She said she would handle it and call me back shortly, and I never received a follow-up phone call from her. I do not appreciate that I was lied about and how I was treated today. This has caused me extreme emotional distress. I feel ashamed and embarrassed when I didn't do anything wrong or call anyone any names. Unfortunately, I still need to go to this doctor because the only other OGBYN's in Aiken are booked months down the line. I have never felt so shocked by a business in my life. I was treated extremely horribly, and it doesn't seem like Aiken OBYN is going to do anything about it and that is very disappointing to me. UPDATE: no action was taken by Aiken OBGYN except deleting my review on their facebook and completely deleting their google review page. Found a way better and more professional gyno. See anyone else! Please!

So much for truly caring about me. I called my doctor in Tennessee who filled my prescription and told me to get another doctor who really cared . Said sounds like a money racket to her. So that's what I did. Couldn't be happier. So my new review is although you may have a doctor that is good, it's important to have nurses that truly share your vision and care about your patients as much as you . This happened 3 years ago but I wanted to update my last experience and rate it here. Now I understand the low reviews Pryor to mine .
