    My mother-in-law just moved out of Porter Hills. At one time this was the premier retirement home,…read morenot anymore! After several incidents, UTI's from not changing her diaper, several falls, many cuts and bruises, leaving her unattended on the toilet, and missing items, my wife finally had to move her to a different facility. Two days in and the quality of care is amazing. They check on her a minimum of every 2 hours. When she rings the bell, someone actually shows up in a timely fashion. They wheel her to the dinning room instead of bringing meals into her room at no extra charge. Porter Hills is building a big new expansion and they have a skeleton crew working to help pay for the new build. Be very careful before committing your love ones to this institution.

    Absolutely deplorable. Would not recommend this place to anyone. Do not believe "what you've…read moreheard". The aids require a ton more training and/or better vetting during recruitment and hiring. The administration is aloof and was contentious when discussing the care (or lack thereof) of our mother. Important note: The sales people are great! No doubt. But they aren't the ones providing the service. It's about revenue. Remember that! My siblings and I all now live out of state. We relied on a lot their former reputation. Our mother was not treated with dignity (left on the toilet unattended at times) and that was only when they "got around to" responding to her calls to use the restroom. She had multiple UTI's during her short time (6 months) and had fall related injuries that were not reported in acceptable detail or in a timely manner. (**And then later charged us for the wound care for injuries they didn't even deem necessary to share. Ridiculous) She felt like the moment she arrived, she was a burden to the staff. She was afraid to bother them and afraid to tell her children (us) so we "don't make it worse for her" The staff, especially evenings, were gruff and annoyed with her. ALL because she needed the very assistance she was paying to receive. Unacceptable. Whatever the reputation WAS prior to our decision to move her to this "premier senior facility" has long passed and in our experience, completely untrue today. Knowing what I know now, I would not let these people watch my dog overnight much less care for our mother one day longer. We have since moved her from this sad situation. After giving notice, we did not hear from the administration for almost a week and on the day we came with our truck, not one person there even asked why or where she was headed. Apparently They just let people come with a truck and take someone's entire belongings and don't ask a single question to stop by to ask anything. Trolly after trolly moving what was left of her personal items, (many missing with no follow up from PH) It was just more evidence that our mother was right about the complaints she would barely share. This is not written in an emotional state. We have since found her a better place. This is written as a warning and a plea to those who consider Porter Hills and take Yelp reviews under serious consideration. If you should choose this place for your loved one, plan on being VERY involved in the day to day needs, believe your loved one when they tell you about mistreatment and keep a close eye on the care they receive and more importantly, what they don't receive. I wish I had ONE kind thing to say. Honestly I do. However, there isn't anything I can point to. Due to the Yelp rating system, I'm force to even give one star. The stress and setbacks Porter Hills caused our mother and our family is impossible to overstate. Thankfully we were able to make a merciful and swift change before things became worse. Consider other options.

    Hi, after reading the negative reviews, I feel badly for those folks and don't doubt their…read moreexperience. However, to counterbalance this, I have had no trouble with MPCP. Have used the one on Gilbert a couple of times with good service. Everyone was nice to me. Have gone to the MCPC in Canadian Lakes for years and have had good service. I sometimes have to wait for prescription refills, but their statement clearly says to allow up to 72 hours for refills. I try to do that, and find it reasonable. It takes a while to get an appointment for routine things, but that isn't any different than all doctors. They are all busy. If I am really sick, they will get me in. My husband has gone to the MPCP Pain Clinic on Gilbert for years and gets excellent service.

    If I could give zero stars I would. My husband was kind enough to schedule a New Patient…read moreappointment for me in August. Unfortunately, my work schedule is difficult to accommodate on particular days, and that was one of those days. There were crossed wires and I completely missed the appointment. I called them back to reschedule, and was informed that because it was classified as a no call/no show, they will NEVER book an appointment for me. I am not one to no call/no show and understand their frustration when that happens. However, I am also a business owner and appreciate new and existing clients and view them as more than just a billable hour. Clearly, if Michigan Primary Care Partners can't make a quick buck off your insurance, you have ZERO value to them. Since they clearly have no interest in MY business, or the business of anyone else I would refer, the best I can do is to warn ANYONE and EVERYONE ELSE to go elsewhere, unless you are looking for a doctor that doesn't care at all about the patient and only what they can bill. Enjoy!
