My experience with Family Practice Associates of Corpus Christi has been pleasant and satisfactory…read more I went under Dr. Bruce Mertz after my lifelong family doctor down the street (Schulze Sr.) finally retired and I have the former office to thank for the good referral. Dr. Mertz sets his patients at ease. He doesn't beat around the bush, answers all our questions with a thorough explanation, offers prevention advice, and has a very proficient practice. The paperwork that is shared with the patient is modern and easy to follow. The admin help visibly work off the options of the health insurance I am using. The low waiting times with the waiting room and exam room have been impressive versus what I read of elsewhere. The overall operation is set up to run efficiently, which is too rare in the healthcare industry. The waiting area is large, clean and well-kept. I would recommend this practice to family and friends.

I was waiting hours and hours in the waiting room of my previous family practitioner and it was becoming a burden. He was a wonderful physician but the wait time was just too much. Luckily I found Family Practice Associates of Corpus Christi and was accepted as a new patient. That was about six months ago. Both my wife and I switched to Dr. Mertz. Dr. Mertz is fantastic. He doesn't beat around the bush, answers all our questions with a thorough explanation, and has a very proficient practice. Both my wife and I have seen Dr. Mertz several times since becoming his patients and every time we only spent five to ten minutes in the waiting room and only a couple minutes in the exam room before Dr. Mertz came in. I only wish I had found Dr. Mertz when I retired to Corpus Christi in 2005. My life would have been much better from a medical standpoint. I'd be remiss if I didn't mention his staff and the waiting area. His staff is wonderful in every regard. And the waiting area is large and clean. If you're considering Family Practice Associates of Corpus Christi, don't hesitate to give them a call. And by all means as to be assigned to Dr. Mertz.

Awesome, professional medical team!…read more Amanda seems young and up to date with new techniques. I used to have the clinic card and was on about 15 meds.

Also love the fact that they do the blood work there and so you don't have to worry about going and finding a place.

Workman's Comp was a terrible and slow experience but once my status changed to Short Term disability I was able to find Dr. Vanderheiden ! His referrals really got things going in the right direction. From a high quality Orthopedic Surgeon to a top Of the line Physical Therapy team . I was able to focus on me and work hard in the right direction . His staff made me feel #1 and never made me wait for doctor notes to get back to HR or Short Term affiliates.

WellMed may be the worst run medical group that I have ever been treated at. They cannot hang onto…read moredoctors therefore, the quality of their existing medical professionals are very low. Nothing could prepare me for the terrible care that I have received for the last two years. The communication between the doctors, their nurses and the labs are the worst in the industry in my opinion. After two years of of using the well med in Portland, Texas because it was a preferred provider within my insurance contract. I have made the decision to seek treatment not from an insured preferred provider, but on my own. I realize this is not an option for many people I would strongly recommend you never ever stepped foot into any of their offices.

They take ages to do almost anything. I went to him mainly to get a prescription filled because my…read moreprevious doctor stopped taking my insurance. By the time they did my blood work and stuff it had already been a week and I had run out of my medication. In the end it took them around 11 days from when I had the appointment to getting my medication. One time I called to have my prescription sent to a pharmacy and it took them 6 days to call in my prescription. Because of the laws surrounding my medication, I could only have it filled three days before I run out, causing me to go three days without it. This is after I already did all of my blood work and in-person appointments, so all I had to do was call them to get the prescription sent. Sometimes when you call and explain your situation, they place you on hold for so long while they do something that a different person picks up the phone and you have to explain the situation all over again. A few times I was on hold for so long that it went to their lunch time, and then I was immediately hung up on without talking to someone for over 10 minutes. Then I would have to wait 2 hours for their lunch break to be over. Having a 2-hour lunch break is already ridiculously long. If you want quick, effective, and professional care, then avoid this place like it will give you the plague. Judging from other people's reviews, it just might
