If this many people are calling in, perhaps you need more people answering the phones. Once I did get the appointment girl, she was unfriendly and not playing with a full deck. Somehow the lines got crossed and another patient was on the line with me. She couldn't hear him but he and I were talking back and forth. She insisted no one was on the line and they had no males working there. Then, she continued to ask me for personal info. I'll find another practice. They lost me.

I went to this medical center campus to visit a husband and wife. One was already in the hospital…read moreand the other one was there to check in for surgery. The husband was in the orange building and the wife was having surgery in the main hospital. I must say this hospital is gorgeous. The glass windows and atrium really make the building. First we had to register for surgery in a small office to the left of the front desk in the lobby. We then were instructed to go to the second floor. The surgery center is conveniently located on that floor. To the right of the elevators is another check in desk. The wait time was minimal even though there were a ton of people waiting. I later realized it was family members supporting their patient. From the time we got there to the time we went to the patient's room after the surgery we were met with nothing but kindness and friendly faces. The entire staff gave an air that they love their jobs. I was impressed that they had a harp player in the lobby. This was much needed for those that are worrying about their loved ones. I also appreciated the free golf cart shuttle between buildings. The campus is pretty big. It was extremely hot and who wants to move their car when it isn't needed. The golf cart driver was really cool and friendly. Excellent service here at this hospital.

The only reason to not give a five star review is because only two people in the ICU at a time, but overall good experience.

What a great staff. Never like getting these anyway but they made me feel comfortable and at home and I was able to cut up with them a bit as a prep me for the procedure well keeping the office safe during the pandemic with limited patients having exposure around each other. Arrived an hour early and filled out the paperwork I got called in a little early to meet with the anesthesiologist and will review the protocols and procedures. Excellent staff made me feel comfortable and I never was excited or stressed but what was about to come. I always love it when the anesthesiologist says you can count back from 100 and you really don't even make 99 so I was happy to wake up after the procedure only taking 20 minutes to complete and another 15 minutes for the anesthesia to wear off so I could leave. My son waited in the car as all other drivers or people waiting were forced to do to keep the lobby area clear of crowds. We were right next to Zaxby's so he simply grabbed a bite to eat waited in the car and I was out in short time and on the way home. I had no uncomfortable experiences and waited in till the next day to eat a pretty good meal because I was starving! I haven't got the bill yet but regardless this was a great staff great location very clean very happy with their service. Highly recommend!

Insisted on blood work. labs show multiple low "range" scores but because my thyroid has not yet totally shut down, the Endo "dr" offered no assistance or guidance and quickly blew me off. This "dr" treated me like I was an addict despite only taking BP meds. I don't smoke or drink. So the attitude was extremely offensive. I have trouble asking for help - and this "medical facility" does not help you. They keep you sick and say let's just keep watching things so they can keep making lots of money. Money is all they are about.
