    Takes forever and the girls behind the counter have quite the attitude. I heard them talking about the patients in the back room while I was waiting in the front. I believe it was the medical assistant who was complaining to the receptionist saying, "The fuck? Her daughter or whatever is asking me all these questions being rude". I didn't come here for gossip, just an appointment, and now I'm uncomfortable. The girls who work at 12:30 on weds need a talking to.

    Dr. Iskarous has been my PCP for over 10 years now. Yes, you'll be waiting a lot in her office. But in my experience, the wait is worth it. She has always been very thorough and very patient with me. Her bedside manner is very professional and her religious beliefs are very comforting. I've only appreciated the care of one her PA's, but she is no longer with the practice (Priti was the name???). I've learned to be very specific when making my appointments, to only choose dates where I'll be seen by only Dr. Iskarous. I had to take my son to her Urgent Care one evening because there were broken water lines at his Urgent Care. We were seen pretty much right away, and my son received the same care as I would have. She has a new upgraded office building located out of Stonewood Mall. The parking is is small, but it is only shared with the pharmacy downstairs, and I've never had a problem parking there.

    I picked this place off a long list from my insurance... wasn't sure what to expect but I needed…read moreX-rays so went here. First, let me say this place was amazingly clean, and even had refreshments in waiting area. The young lady at the counter was friendly and professional. You hand them your ID and health insurance card... and the rest is done on your phone.. so easy!!! I don't feel the wait was very long, especially for a weekend at an urgent care. I was seen rather quickly and my entire visit, including X-rays, results, medications and paperwork was just over an hour. I think I take longer at my regular doctor sometimes!!! Everyone was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The doctor explained everything to me, they gave me some shots to get thru the day... and I think this was an amazing experience! Highly recommend and will definitely use them again.

    In terms of customer service, the service was exceptional. Mandy and Jessica took care of me and I…read morecannot overstate how impressed I was by their welcoming service. Unfortunately, 2 days after visiting, my experience left me frustrated and scratching my head. My main complaint is I was prescribed fluoroquinolone antibiotics (Cipro) for a sting ray sting, without any mention about the well documented risks associated with lasting tendon rupture and collagen matrix disruption. It was only once I'd done my research that I had to call to see if we can switch. One of the PA's (Paula, also exceptional) took my call and even said she was glad that I caught that and did not understand why I was prescribed Cipro when there are much safer alternatives out there. When I had gone in, I was also given a steroid shot to help with inflammation and left in the room for some time. I started to get quite nauseous and felt close to fainting. I had to step outside and call for someone, just to be told "yeah this happens often, forgot to warn you" and "you beat me to checking in on you." What's worse is I came to find out combining fluoroquinolones with corticosteroids (steroid shots) have been documented to a FOURTEEN (14!) FOLD increased risk of tendinopathy and tendon rupture (D. Baggio, M.R. Andana-Rajah, 2021). Why on earth would you combine a fluoroquinolone and corticosteroids? If there are safer antibiotics, why fluoroquinolone alone? The whole experience just feels medically untrained or professionally careless. I'm completely bewildered, and quite frustrated.

    First of all I did not know this location was inside the Downey Landing, so it was a bit tricky to…read morefind at first but im so glad I came here. The hospital I go to does not have urgent care, so I needed a Dr ASAP. I brought in my son due to high grade fever and a stye on his left eye. The nurses and Drs were very patience with my son, he absolutely LOTHES seeing drs, so shout out to all them for helping me keep my son as calm as possible and doing their best in caring for him. If I ever need to come here again I definitely will. Thank you TEAM

On 5/1/26 at approximately 9:54 AM, I called the hospital multiple times regarding a blanket | left behind. The security guard, who identified himself as Abram (A-B-R-A- M), disconnected my calls repeatedly-five times in total. After finally getting a response, I was told the item had already been checked for "yesterday," which does not align with my timeline, as I had been there more recently. Given the repeated hang-ups and dismissive behavior, I have serious doubts that any proper effort was made to locate my item. This is especially concerning because this individual is a security guard-someone expected to maintain professionalism, assist patients and visitors, and handle situations responsibly. Instead, I was met with repeated disconnections and a lack of basic courtesy. I am requesting that management review this incident. The calls were made at a specific time, and there should be records available for review. I strongly encourage an internal investigation, including listening to the recorded calls, to understand exactly how this situation was handled. No one should have to call multiple times just to be hung up on while trying to recover a personal belonging. This needs to be addressed.

    I had to come here after an unsatisfactory experience from Excer Urgent care on Lakewood blvd. They…read moretold me they needed a "credit card" when I have full medical coverage! With all the healthcare fraud and breeches...there was so way I was going to do that. The receptionists at ContinuEM were super nice and got me checked in within 5 mins. Never did they ask me for anything financial other than my copay which was expected. Once I saw the doctor, boy was he thorough. He explained what was going on, what to expect and what I was doing that could make things worse. They gave me a steroid pill right there in the office - no need to go to the pharmacy! And they observed me after I took the pills to make sure I didn't have a reaction. It was actually a good thing that Exer didn't work out!

    I received the worst service from JENNIFER PEART, NP, today, 6/2/2026…read more I told her my concerns, and she told me they don't handle this in their establishment. I just said, "Ok, I guess that's it". I felt helpless at this point. She then replied with, "okay"! And walked off nonchalantly. I stood there for a few seconds before realizing a nurse or aide was not coming to offer me an after visit summary, and escort me out. I then found my own way out. It made me wonder would she treat a non-minority the same way she treated me. I understand they have their own limitations, but to be treated so nonchalantly with lack of compassion is the upsetting part. Are bedside manners nonexistent now? I understand people have their off days, but this was completely unacceptable. Maybe consider another field if helping people doesn't bring you any sense of fulfillment. I will be reaching out to speak with a manager if possible.
