Mount Pleasant Location: I would give this office zero stars…read moreif it'd let me. I had an extremely frustrating experience with this office and would strongly caution others. I originally came in for a routine physical, which should have been fully covered by my insurance. Instead, I was billed for standard services like bloodwork. It took SIX MONTHS of repeated calls and back-and-forth to get this addressed. Every time you call, you're routed to a call center, which makes resolving anything even more difficult. After reading other reviews, it seems like this is a common issue here. On top of that, basic accuracy seems to be a problem. I'm 5'10" and fully grown, yet they initially recorded me as 6'1". When I questioned it, my chart was later updated to 5'6" -- which is wildly inaccurate and concerning. The most frustrating part: I specifically went in last fall to establish care and ensure continuity for a prescription after moving from NC. I clearly explained that I didn't need a refill at that time since my previous doctor had just sent one in. I was told that was fine and that I could simply call when I needed a refill. When I called today, they refused to fill it and said I'd need to come in for another appointment and pay again -- completely contradicting what I was previously told. Overall, this office is disorganized, inconsistent, and incredibly frustrating to deal with. I would AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

I recently moved to the area and needed to establish myself with a primary care physician. You all…read moreknow how stressful this can be. My daughter recommended Palmetto Primary Care and Dr. Teachman. I called to make an appointment and they were very nice. They texted me a link to fill out all my forms, attach a copy of my insurance card, and pay my copay ahead of time. It was so easy and allowed me to breeze right into the appointment. The assistant was very nice and put me at ease, taking my blood pressure and history. I really liked Dr. Teachman. He said he wanted to get to know me. He took time to understand my family history and talk about my lifestyle. I felt very comfortable, not nervous, like when I usually visit a new doctor. I trust that we have a good plan moving forward for my care. Checking out was easy, and I made a follow-up appointment for 6 months. The offices and waiting room are beautiful and clean. The staff is super friendly. If you are looking for a doctor that takes time to get to know a patient and really listens while providing excellent care, this is the place for you. Highly recommend.

Stumbled across Dr Nicolette's office because it was close to home and I needed a doctor that could…read moredo some quick blood work for CBC my work would fund my HSA for doing. The receptionists here are great and super friendly and helpful. Dr Nicolette was very warm and friendly as well. Took time to actually talk with me as a new patient and seemed interested in developing a relationship beyond just this visit. When an issue with the bill, the staff here actually worked with me to get that changed so that my visit would have been covered by my insurance. There's no way a Dr with one of the big hospitals in the area would have cared enough to do that. I don't actually go to the doctor much, as I'm (luckily) a pretty person. But I've actually been back to Dr Nicolette this year for a back issue and he displayed the same warmth and caring as he did my first visit. Anyway, I just wanted to write a positive review for the guy because I think he deserves all the praise he can get.

They don't deal with insurance because they are a small practice, but give you everything you need to file with your insurance company. I was actually shocked that the bill was only $300! We saved hours by not going to the emergency room, got better treatment and just felt very grateful to find this place.

The strength of this practice is the quality of care from Dr. Newton, who is a listener and supports a wellness approach to health. He is holistic, works with patients as a team member. He respects the patient's leadership role in this consumer-driven medical economy. He understands the systems of medicine that cause healthcare to become astronomically and unfairly priced--and as a result, he delivers cost-effective treatment.

Very glad to have found her.

Dr. Mea and the staff were absolutely fighting for me to get this medicine approved by my insurance. The team here is considerate, timely - and most importantly an advocate for the patient.

Uh- Dr. Maria Dzierzko-Trojanowska First off. Where do I…read moreeven start. I only made an appointment with her office as I've been having pain and she's the only pcp I called that was either accepting new patients or not booked out 8-12 weeks. And boy do I see why now. My appointment was at 3:30, I was called back at 3:45 and dr came in right before 4. So that was good. The facility was old and dated and dirty. When I say dirty, there was a bandaid wrapper on the floor of the exam room I was seated in that when the person who sat me in there she noticed. The fact she didn't pick it up and throw it away was surprising. So the Dr comes in with a smile and introduces herself. After a few seconds we are interrupted by a knock at the door. Another staff member talking about what to do with another patient. Kind of rude but whatever. I get it. New patient appointments can be long and she didn't want to wait. So anyways the Dr comes in, introduced herself and immediately tells me I need a vaccine. She knows nothing about it I've had it, or want it, or anything. She handed me the RX to get it. She went on about this vaccine I know I've had for at least ten minutes until going to my family history. After reviewing how many members of my family have illnesses she starts talking about a referral she's going to give me for genetic consulting. What. No. I don't want that. If I was seeking genetic consulting I would have said so. I told her that wasn't a priority for me and she went on how it should be. I get it. She's the professional. I'm not. But I'm here for pain, not genetic stuff. We are about 25 minutes into the appointment now. I tell her my chief compliant and she says she'd write me a prescription to manage it. I don't want an Rx to manage the symptoms. That's what I've been doing for the last year, hence why I am there. Finally. I want to get rid of the symptoms from the source. When I asked about cause she then stated she'd have to give me a referral to a specialist. So then I question her. How can she want to treat something with meds but won't explain what's going on...? She didn't have much to say besides the same thing she did. Not helpful at all. I was like okay, whatever, I'll go to a specialist. It has to be more helpful than her. So she tells me about who she's sending me to and basically gave me no choice in provider. When I voiced my concern, she didn't care and went on her way with the referral. While she's typing all of her notes and referrals and other stuff my phone lit up. No sound. No vibration. Nothing. I didn't reach to read it. It just lit up from a notification. She then states "oh I can't see you if you're going to be on your phone. Your health deserves undivided attention and I deserve that respect too" in a very rude and condensing way. first off. I agree. Secondly. It wasn't even close enough for me to reach and be on. I almost ended the exam right there as that was so rude of her to assume it lit up that i was going to be on it. But in interest if time I knew I was never going back to her so I let her type her notes. Answered no to all of her questions and I left. On my way out I handed the RX back to the front desk and asked her to inactivate me as I'd never go see her again for anything. Also to cancel the referrals and RX as I don't want those either. Overall very unprofessional. Every nurse there seemed like they hated it. I worked in the medical field for ten years. I went in for 1 specific issue. I was given a 30 day supply of pills to manage symptoms(if it'd even work), 2 referrals I didn't want. The last thing I'd say is about her hygiene. If she's rolling that computer on wheels from room to room and touching in between touching patients, it's probably full of nasty. She went back and forth from touching the disposable part of the light piece that goes in my ear with her bare hands to touching mouse to doing the exam where she's touching me, then keyboard. I was just grossed out.

Dr Stroud took the time needed and listened to symptoms that I had been experiencing for years that all the other doctors I have seen in years past just waved off as "nothing to worry about". Dr Stroud encouraged me to see a specialist and with his guidance and help I was able to get a concrete diagnosis. I highly recommend him for an adults & children's primary care. Appointment times are easy to schedule and they take most insurances.
