I have been a patient of Dr. Carlson's for about four years, and I am so glad that he is my primary…read moredoctor. I am a huge proponenet of "old school" doctors that actually listen to your concerns, share their expertise, and together come up with a plan that will work for you not only in that moment, but also in the long run. His office staff is caring, and gets you to where you need to be. It may take some time, but you will get there. All in all, he's a very kind, compassionate human who wants the best for his patients. Yes it may be a long wait to see him once you're in the examination room, don't worry, the wait is worth it!!!

I am being excessively generous with the second star here and the only reason I am giving two is…read morebecause I like Dr Carlson. He's a very nice person and the staff in his office are also pleasant. But from a quality of care perspective, you should find another primary care physician. I made my appointment as a new patient a year ago. As is the case with US healthcare, I had to wait months for my appointment. My initial appointment, even though I had health concerns, was mostly just a meet and greet and filling out paperwork, including records request for prior doctors and specialists. And that was it. Paid a copay, and they billed my insurance company. Second visit was 4 months or so later. This was to give Dr Carlson time to review prior records. When I showed up, again, no exam at all. Dr Carlson spoke briefly about the records he received and wanted to send me out for blood work, even though I had blood work already. Turns out they didn't receive records from everyone, including a specialist who had just done an extensive blood panel a month or so prior. So, Dr Carlson sent me on my way while they attempted to get that paperwork. Had me schedule another appt in 4 months. Copay and insurance billed again, for nothing. Fast forward to this past week and my last appointment. Dr Carlson spent most of the time talking about all of the data he received from the specialist. And while he did ask me if I had any health concerns, he told me my questions were good ones for the specialist and I should ask him. He also suggested getting another opinion on my issues. But that was it. Once again, no exam. However, this time he said he was going to bill this as my annual physical because then I won't have a copay. I don't know why I didn't say anything then and there. I should have. But that's 3 visits. 3 times billing my insurance company and two copays. And one of them billing as an annual physical without giving me any type of exam. What kind of doctor or medical practice is this? How do you have me come in 3 times without giving me any kind of exam? Apparently, they are just here to bill your insurance as much as possible. People come to primary care doctors specifically to help find any issues early, but you can't detect issues in advance of them becoming problems if you don't conduct basic health exams. Moreover, the visits he had me come for could have all been handled in advance of any visit. The office could have contacted me at any time before my first visit to have me fill out records releases. And if any records didn't show up timely, they could have contacted me to follow up with those other doctors. That would have eliminated the need for those first two visits. Instead, they were inefficient - presumably because they just wanted to needlessly and endlessly bill my insurance. Anyway, long story short, Dr Carlson is a nice man and maybe a good doctor, but the way this practice is run is horrible. It's clearly more about billing your insurance and collecting your copay than it is about your health. Don't waste a year of your life like I did. Go somewhere else for your PCP needs.

I have been dealing with this location for over 20 years. Currently it's Optum and I am throughly…read moredisgusted with the current manner in which referrals are being treated. Yesterday a Gastro specialist called me requesting I do something to force the Bayway site to send him the referral document so I could come in 12/9 for a scheduled colonoscopy. I immediately (9:50am) drove to the office and made the request and was told it would be handled and I would be called after it was done. 4 hours later(1:30) I had received no call so I went back to the office to find out what was going on. Reception staff checked and told me it was flagged to be handled immediately but hadn't been done. They said it would get it handled. Now understand I have to start a medication routine to get ready for the colonoscopy and I needed to know it was going to happen. So I left the office thinking (stupidly it seems) that after the specialist requesting it, and I visiting and requesting it twice, that the referral documentation would be sent to the Gastro specialist so he could get his staff ready to perform on 12/9. Well, at about 2:20 12/8 I get the call from the Gastro specialist telling me he has cancelled my procedure due to not receiving the referral documentation. I drove to the Optum Bayway office for the third time. There I confronted the staff demanding to know why they were so incompetent. I received a lame excuse from the office manager about system problems which it seems had been miraculously solved as she was able to hand me a copy of the form saying it had been sent just minutes ago. I informed her that was nice but it was after the scheduling deadline and I now have to wait for a reschedule. The office manager assured me then that the referral document was good for 3 months (like that makes it okay for them to be incompetent). Now this is a serious screwup on the part of the office staff, but understand My Doctor there is great, as are the nurses and technicians. But this is the third time I have had to go to the office to request the office staff to do their damn job. It was absolutely the worst experience so it seems they are getting worse and not better. From this point on when I get a referral I will have to demand it be given to me the same day. I would suggest others do the same. I don't think this is just something that happens to me.

Optum is actually pretty hood if you understand your policy and Optum procedures. even in…read moreemergency the turn around time for a referral is usually ten days. if you can't wait you go to ER. it's that simple. unfortunately the referral staff are poorly trained and have no idea what they are doing so it can take much longer to get what you need....like a pain specialist referral....ten days is a long time...three weeks is unbearable. assess your needs. know before you go. I've had two hip replacements, two ablations, all requiring referrals. luckily my specialist had crackerjack teams to Marshall the referrals from their end. this can be a life saver no pun intended. my primary left and gave two years notice. they cannot find a new primary and the practice was pure chaos. I am going to stay with Optum at another location pending doctor reviews.

When you walk in the door you're greeted by your name and a smile. Even sitting in the office waiting to be seen every person that comes through that door is greeted by their name. Dr McCoy staff is so awesome. Jay is such a caring special nurse. He always smiles and is very thorough with you before you see the doctor. Dr McCoy is so knowledgeable and possesses and aura that you experienced minute she comes in the room. She never rushes through seeing you until she is satisfied that she has gone over everything with you and that you understand and are satisfied. She's been awesome with me and my medical problems. Dr Lydia runs therapy department and she is such an outstanding therapist. She was worked on my shoulder hips and knee and I have come out of it with great results. I've had the pleasure of experiencing the most dedicated primary Care doctors with Labrador primary Care. Thank you Dr McCoy for all you do and having such a great staff.
