When they took me back, the doc took 30min or more to come to my room. When I was told it would be quick... Dr Vy - not a great doctor, IMO, I had been sick with symptoms that mirrored the Cyclospora Parasite outbreak. I mean they fit to a 'T'!! Plus I had eaten at Taco Bell literally 6-7 days prior to the first symptom! My symptoms were - Day 1 Severe nausea/gagging/dry heaving, diarrhea, no appetite. Then somewhere mid day, all of those went away. Then come evening the nausea and diarrhea would slowly start again. Day 2 I felt fine, maybe felt a lil off, no nausea, but did have diarrhea, nausea showed up later that evening, overnight. Day 3 severely nauseous/gagging/dry heaving early morning. No appetite. Half way through the day seemed ok, but very little appetite. Day 4 slept all night and actually woke up hungry and felt great all day! Day 5 all the symptoms showed up again in the middle of the night same as Day 1, bad! This was the day I decided I need to see a doctor. The info was out there about how the symptoms of the "poop lettuce" presented themselves and I was like this has to be that! When the doc came into the room, I explained all of these symptoms and the research. She told me the onset is usually within 2 days (not true - it can present in as early as 2 days- but per the CDC- a week is the average) and my symptoms weren't as severe as everyone else's. I use zofran and essential oils to help my symptoms plus not everyone is the same in their symptoms. I asked for the lab test to test for Cyclospora. She kept asking me about fevers. I said the symptoms I told you are the only symptoms I have had. They never took my temp in the office. 4x she asked about me having a fever throughout the 10-15min she was in the room. She said she couldn't give me an antibiotic without the lab test proving what I had - I didn't ask for that at this appt - I asked for the test. She ordered 3 tests, fortunately, I had the help of AI to determine the one test I requested, she didn't order! I was still in the lobby and asked the front for her to redo the orders because it's a very specific test that has to be requested that looks for Cyclospora. Finally got it. Unfortunately, this was a Thursday and I couldn't get the samples done before the lab closed. Long weekend goes by where Day 6-8 are a repeat of Day 5. Over the wknd I had time to research more about the lab tests, the parasite and the to do's and not to do's. My labs came back negative. Disappointing, but not uncommon, as the specific test for cyclospora is known to need to repeat tests (because of the parasites shedding cycle), but many doctors are trained to know the symptoms and can bypass the negative test to go ahead and prescribe the antibiotics based on the timeline from exposure to symptoms, the symptoms and the manner they present themselves. Or they could request a repeat test. Dr Vy - did none of those. Didn't request for me to come back in (we called to ask for the antibiotics/help because I was in bad shape) or another test. Her advice was to take Imodium and that was it. Off we went to the Mease ER. Where we were seen and heard right away. The ER doc said well, it's very common to need to do MULTIPLE tests because of the parasite shedding cycles- it's very common to get a false negative for Cyclospora. Since, I was dehydrated they gave me IV fluids, while we waited to see if I could provide a sample for them to run another test. Unfortunately, I had depleted my samples in the middle of the night (as that must have been my parasites shedding cycle ‍) and the ER doc made a decision (while advising me of the risks of taking the antibiotic) to go ahead and prescribe the Bactrim based on the timeline and on/off cycles of the symptoms and the specific symptoms. I am on Day 12 of this parasite sickness - but am also on day 3 of antibiotics with symptoms improving every day. First night symptom free with no zofran or oils! So, I'll never go to this urgent care again nor will I ever recommend it - unless it's obvious your bone is broken and this is the only place open.

StadMed is the place to go when you're not feeling well. The entire staff is incredibly kind,…read morewelcoming, and compassionate. My favorites are the two PAs; Jodi and the other provider whose name I unfortunately can't remember. They have taken care of my entire family with such genuine kindness, and you can truly tell they care about their patients. Today we visited the new Palm Harbor location, where Jodi took excellent care of my mom. She is professional, attentive, and takes the time to listen. She explains everything clearly and thoroughly, making you feel comfortable and cared for every step of the way. Our entire family has been coming to StadMed for years, and every visit has been a positive experience. They make us feel like more than just patients. they make us feel like family. I highly recommend StadMed to anyone looking for an urgent care that truly puts patients first. They deserve 100% of our recommendation!

This place is the best !! Excellent in every way!…read more Everything from the reception to the care quality is absolutely the best. I suffer from a sprained wrist and went to two other Urgent cares in the area, but none is even close to STATMED at Countryside Mall. Not only were they able to see me in a timely manner but they were able to do X-Rays on site (on a Sunday!) and provide a prescription to help with the pain. Thank you Rachel and Jennifer and everyone else who helped. In addition, they recommended that I see an Orthopedic doctor and gave me the name of one that took me on short notice, because I was referred by STATMED. If you need help, don't hesitate to use this wonderful facility.

I brought my husband here bc he was having concerning right side, abdominal pain. We walked in and…read moreno one was at the front desk to start and two people were in the waiting room. It didn't seem busy at all. When the desk attendant did show up, she said there a people ahead of you and I can't help you right now. No hello, how are you, nothing..... it was very dismissive. For an urgent care clinic this is unacceptable. She asked us to sit down and she'd be with us when she could. I expected to be able to sign in or at least fill out paperwork while we waited. My husband was so put off by the not so warm welcome we ended up leaving. Do not recommend.

She then started typing away and a few minutes later 'twas time to cough up the copay for today's proceedings. Seems like I'm coming down with bronchitis, BTW. Since I walked in at 2:45 pm, being taken into the back @2:56 pm not horrible Clinician on duty was/is Leighanne J. Before that the assistant (Rachael) came along, took me to exam room and did all the preliminary mumbo jumbo such as history, meds, allergies, etc. She lunches it all in her laptop and tells me the "provider" shall be in shortly. I was the only patient in the joint (one was leaving after I arrived) yet it took the "provider" another 16 minutes to show up after the PA and her laptop left me alone in "Exam Room 1." I suppose it's pretty good that I'm not urgently ill if this is supposed to be "Urgent Care." If I WERE urgently ill, I'd likely be headed to ER instead, but I digress. Leighanne was pleasant enough I suppose. She spent a few minutes listening to my lungs and looking into the dark abyss of my yapper. So long story short: I was right about bronchitis. She went off to go do more computer crap and before U know it I was prescribed a steroid, an inhaler and antibiotics. Then she came back with my discharge instructions (no time off work: CRAP!) and sent me on my way. Altogether I was in there roughly 32 minutes...I guess I can't complain too much since one often sits for much longer periods whenever one deals with the mysteries of medicine and its minions. BTW: they test for COVID also. So if you feel a little low and got nowhere else to go, uh: here you have it. "Get well soon!"

The office staff and front desk are welcoming and helpful, answering questions. And the nurses are absolutely the friendliest. The office itself is clean, very patient-friendly, and easy to navigate. Another bonus is they have onsite blood work - phlebotomist Dale is super great!
