Everytime I have appointment here it's just a blessing. I had another video visit appointment with Dr. Vaddireddy yesterday and she just nailed everything even before I could say. She was so thorough in her diagnosis and highly professional. I would recommend everyone to go to her or anyone needing a new PCP should definately go with her. Thanks read more

I had a really bad experience with this practice. My provider was not well trained his communication skills were very poor. Mr Syed Nayer is only an FNP who received his degree from an online university. His clinical competence was suspect. He showed up over 1/2 hour late to the appoinment and acutally hung up on me during a telehealth visit. In my opinion, they did not follow the kind of standard clinical practices I would expect. I would not recommend them and would suggest looking somewhere else for care. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. This place is an absolute joke. Today was the last straw. I had an ultrasound appointment scheduled -- and just like every other time with this miserable excuse for a clinic, they canceled it without telling me. I followed strict pre-ultrasound instructions: no food, no water. I canceled my daughter's class. I rearranged a complicated schedule to be there, and I showed up hungry, tired, and ready -- only to be told "Oh, your appointment was canceled." They claimed they sent a text. I don't have a text. I don't have a call. And when I asked why they didn't call, the front desk shrugged and said, "Oh, we did... at first." THEN the story changed -- now apparently the ultrasound tech had to take a three-week emergency break. Three weeks. Emergency. Make it make sense. What's worse is this isn't a one-time thing. This place has consistently failed me and my husband. Appointment changes without notice, horrendous front desk staff who act like you're inconveniencing them just by showing up, and a complete lack of accountability. Last time I came, a new doctor reviewed my old blood test results and told me there were things in there that were extremely concerning -- things I was NEVER told by the previous doctor. Even she was shocked I wasn't informed. This place is disorganized, negligent, and outright disrespectful to patients' time and health. I've had enough. My family will never come back, and I strongly urge anyone reading this to run -- not walk -- in the opposite direction. Avoid this clinic at all costs. Your time, health, and sanity are worth more than what they offer here. read more

Windermere Medical Group - Internal Medicine Near Me - Cumming, Georgia

I am so frustrated . I went to this office for over a year and was compliant no issues. As soon as Dr.Karnstedt passed away it became a problem I was told I couldnt be a pt while pregnant but I could return after my pregnancy. I tried to return and somehow I supposedly was discharged from the practice that makes no sense and noone can even give me an exact reason or what I supposedly did. Just overall no communication and no sense and this is my first time EVER reviewing anything read more

Very poor service and extremely expensive. They kept insisting on additional tests that were not necessary at the time of the visit. Felt like they were trying to upsell rather than provide genuine care. I would not recommend this place and will never visit again. read more

I quit going there, changed whole institutions because of their snide, rude, arrogant behavior by the Manager and the doctors when my GP Dr Karnstedt passed. This is the U.S. If they want to live and practice here maybe they wouldn't lose patients from there practice by treating people kind & with respect. read more

Windermere is a predatory company thats goal is to get as much money from people as possible. With that being said, if you want to get your hands on stimulant medication quickly, Windermere is your place. I was referred here for ADHD testing. The "testing" only consisted of a 15 minute computer test. No questionaire or interview. I was tossed around to 3 different providers at 3 different facilities. Dr. Taylor attempted to prescribe me a high dose of amphetamines right off the bat. Understandably, it took a toll on me. I discontinued the medicine and was referred to an actual behavioral medicine practice that followed procedures to actually take care of the patient and provide a proper diagnosis. That's not the end of my nightmare here at Windermere. Appointments were scheduled without my knowledge. The worst of it was the fact that I did not find out my insurance was in network until MONTHS after my appointments. They did not file a claim with my insurance until a month after each appointment. They failed to check insurance prior to appointments- which although not illegal, is very predatory, ESPECIALLY when their website claims they "accept" my insurance. Billing is snarky. I have tried to contact management with no reply. This company is quick to get you in so they can screw you over. Nobody should come here, and this place needs to be shut down. read more

shiitiest in the wait time!! it is as if the patient's do not have a life, job, little kids. and I am not even a patient, just here for the annual visit!!! the average wait is 1 hr! 30 min in the waiting room and another 30-45 min in the exam room! if the doc is running late, it is a common courtesy to inform that there is this average wait time, instead of waiting there hopelessly!! the WiFi doesn't work, so chance of working from there or attending work calls etc to cover the time away from office! hate the front desk staff's attitude!! so irresponsive!! just laziest and mismanaged office!! I am changing the damn clinic!!! read more

I was one of the first patients at this clinic (about 18-20 years ago I think?). It used to be good. I had an appointment yesterday. The nurse took me 10 minutes early (good) and then I sat in the examination room for 40 minutes alone. I finally had to leave to get back to work. The receptionist was rude, confused and confusing. She contradicted herself repeatedly, spoke unclearly, asked questions an then interrupted me repeatedly. I will never go back to this sh*thole. read more

I have had very frustrating experiences with this doctor's office. I came to them seeking mental health support, but their terrible communication regarding appointments and billing has done more harm than good. Despite attending monthly appointments for the last six months, I was unexpectedly sent to collections over a charge from April. There is a complete lack of accountability here, and it's incredibly disappointing to feel ignored and mishandled by a healthcare provider when I needed support the most. One star is one star too many. I wouldn't recommend this office to anyone looking for reliable care. read more

If I could give a zero, I would. No follow up, no return calls, won't return my texts - completely incompetent group. The answering service barely speaks English and have absolutely no idea what they're doing. I finally got to speak with someone that I thought could help, and was told that they would send my medical records to another doctor, and true to form, they didn't. I'm not sure what's happening over there but I DO NOT recommend this group! read more

Dr Patel and some of the other Drs are great. NP Hanaford is an awful human. If you try to tell someone the so called "office manager" it gets you absolutely no where. NP will not tell you anything but then you will get a letter saying they won't see you anymore if you disagree with them. I want everyone to know that NP Hanaford should lose her ability to see patient. read more

I have seen 2 separate providers in the last 2 years. Neither of them were helpful or have any bedside manners. The NP called my name, made no eye contact, walked back to his office with not a single hello.... He didn't care to look at my previous medical records I printed out to show him. My case is complicated and prior to booking this appointment I was assured the providers specialized in PMDD. Well, they do not! Nor Dr. Bhumi or NP Syed are aware of the complications with PMDD. I was dismissed as "it's manageable" and that I should go see a therapist. The front desk staff needs to be trained on the services provided by their providers. The lady who answered my call and texted to schedule me had absolutely no knowledge of which provider could best help me. When I asked her how much it would cost, her response, "nothing, you have insurance." She never looked at my plan to confirm. And then they wonder why people get upset about surprise charges!! I took some ADA paperwork and they never once indicated there would be a "$25 admin fee" for it. read more

I'm writing this review because I've reached a point where I don't know what else to do, and I'm hoping that by making my concerns public, I'll finally get the assistance I need. I have to say that my Family Nurse Practitioner, Katy Hanaford, is absolutely amazing--she's an attentive, compassionate caregiver, and I have never felt more heard and understood by a medical professional in my adult life. This makes it even more frustrating that I'm encountering administrative issues that are preventing me from receiving the complete medical care that I need. On July 16, I saw FNP Hanaford and raised a concern about a spot on my shoulder. She promptly prepared a referral for me to see a dermatologist. I scheduled an appointment with Marietta Dermatology in Canton for September 13. However, on September 8, I received a call from the dermatologist's office saying that there was a paperwork error from Windermere Medical's Canton office that could affect my insurance approval. The office staff told me it was a common mistake and asked if Windermere Medical could call them to resolve the issue. So, I did one better--I drove to Windermere Medical's Canton office to handle this in person. After explaining my situation twice to the woman at the front desk, I left thinking that my concerns would be addressed. I even gave her the direct contact at Marietta Dermatology to expedite the process. Fast forward to September 22, and I get another call from Marietta Dermatology stating that nothing has been done. They're going above and beyond by offering to contact FNP Hanaford directly, which I appreciate but also find embarrassing, as this is not a task that she should be handling. I'm putting all of this out here because I need help and don't know the proper channels to get this administrative issue fixed. I've done everything right on my end and yet I'm stuck in limbo. If you're considering using Windermere Medical's services, be prepared for great medical care but be cautious about the administrative side of things. I hope this review brings about some prompt action and resolution. Thank you. read more

I really thought dr Taylor was a very nice man and a great doctor he listened and helped me by explaining everything to me.

I was receiving medicine after visiting 4 times which is 2 hour drive then they told me I couldnt receive my meds because of my pharmacy change which the operator told me to do to save money through RX, my doctor said it was because my frequent pharmacy change, but then the manager said he couldn't give me a reason or call my new doctor to send my information. So now I have no doctor DO NOT GO HERE VERY BAD SERVICE. read more

Would not recommend- always running behind and really poor time management- waited 1.5 hours to be seen for scheduled appointment and I had many problems with the clinic read more

Unfortunately I have to write this review so hopefully no one else has to go through this experience. As a healthcare provider myself, I want to emphasize this practice is disorganized and uninformed at a dangerous level. I have been attempting for months to get a medication authorized and I will spare you the details but wrong insurance was submitted multiple times, unaware of lab results for weeks, and not once receiving a call back as promised. This has been nothing short of an absolute drain on my energy and I now have zero confidence in this office. While the staff is courteous, unfortunately they are terribly scattered and continuity of care is non-existent. It is truly my opinion that in the interest of patient safety these doors should be closed for staff education before continuing on. read more

Leaving 1 star as there no option for zero. They have rescheduled my Appointment to their convinece from what I had scheduled... have called clinic that will be 10 min late arrived just to hear that i have to reschedule to some other day --- I am not going back to this Clinic again. read more

I hate to complain, but I have NEVER had a good experience with Windermere Medical Clinic. The doctor is ALWAYS late to my appointment. Katy Hanaford was my first doctor. I asked her to not give me a specific medication, because it causes me to feel suicidal. She did not listen to me & prescribed it to me anyways. Every time that I tried to contact her, I was asked to leave a message with the office. I never received a response. This doctor was also always several days late to prescribe my medications. My second doctor was Katherine Fulcro. She was kind, but every time that I would ask her a question, she would say "let me look that up" or "I think so." It looked like she had no idea what she was talking about. read more

I love all the doctors here. They get to the root cause of things. Just be experienced for long wait times!

The doctors I have seen are professional & courteous. They listened and ordered necessary tests to determine the cause of any issues that I have suffered. read more

Stay very far away from this clinic. My mother went here to get pre op medical clearance taken care of. They crafted a fake X-RAY to try and substantiate my mom needing CT scan and several other unrelated diagnostic assessments. We both work in medicine and knew the likelihood of her having this alleged moderate form of restrictive respiratory disease is slim to none. We decided to schedule a second X-RAY to establish a second opinion with a completely different medical group. Of course the new X-ray showed no findings claimed in the X-RAY. The language in the first X-RAY is night and day compared to the second one. Also, all other lab diagnostic had no indication of the disease process that she claimed my mother had, yet she also refused to be given the radiologic imaging of the new X-RAY so we can really compare. This is a company that likely scams elderly patients (the frequent clients as far I can see) by throwing around pretentious medical jargon and running up a bill with diagnostic procedures when there is simply no basis. I'm grateful to work in medicine and be competent enough to decipher a nincompoop from a skilled practitioner. They're extremely dishonest and incompetent and will double down on the lies to substantiate not having to admit poor judgment. Please do not go here or bring a loved one read more

Last time I was actually in the office I wait over 5O min in waiting room. When I finally went to the desk, she said "oh I thought you were in room 2. I have always been on time for appointments. But, on 1 occasion i was 13 min late due to an accident on the highway. When i check in the front desk said I wouldn't be able to see my Dr. because I was 15 min late. I let her know on every occasion I wait for more than 30 min so I wasn't sure how my 13 min was fair and ethical! Today I had a televisit. scheduled at 10am since my last one was deleted by a staff member and I was never notified. They called to confirm. It's now 12:20 and no televisit ever happened and I'm out of meds. I love my Dr. but this place is run beyond horribly. Run far away! read more

My family and friend visited their facility in North Atlanta. We were their for shots required for international travels. We each paid the fee required at check-in. They explained that the full amount had been paid, and no balance was due. Thereafter, we each have received bills saying that we owe more. This is not a practice I would visit again. read more

5 months later and I'm still dealing with this nightmare office. I'm now reported to collections for a bill that I've told them MULTIPLE times was billed to an insurance that was inactive. read more

No regard for the patient or keeping to a schedule. Awful right down to HIPAA and PHI violations

If I could give this doctor's office 0 stars I would. My daughter is a patient here and just went for an app last week. They sent her medication to a pharmacy that does not accept her insurance (not the doctor's office fault) but when she called back to have the prescription sent to another pharmacy that does accept her insurance she spoke to a woman named "Gee" in the medication department and was HUNG UP ON with no resolution. She called back 2 more times this week to have her prescription transferred and got the same results from the same woman. My daughter is 18 so wondering why it took her mother to call the office to get her prescription issue worked out and almost a week to due so? Shame on you for poor patient treatment Windermere. read more

I have been a patient for 11 years. Dr. Priyya Bayyapereddy is an amazing doctor. Her office staff and manager are the most incompetent people I have ever dealt with. They have gotten worse each year. Prescriptions don't get called in, hospitals don't get orders they need for tests. Today the practice manager told me that's not her job. She was more concerned with telling me what her job is not, than providing any type of customer service. They are going to drive away all of their business. Too many other doctors in the area with customer/patient service. read more

The medical staff is good, if you ever get pass the front desk!!! The worst front desk, customer service personal you will ever run into. Talk about an incompetent, illiterate, amateurish bunch of people working together at the same place!! Extremely rude staff! Appointments are a joke; you can have one but will wait for up to 45-60 minutes for no reason. Unless you have nothing to do and you like to be treated like 3rd class citizen by some substandard ladies at Windermere, it's your place. Turn around and Run!! read more

If I could rate windermere medical clinic zero stars thats exactly what I would give them. I have been a patient here since they opened. When I first started coming here the owner Dr. Bayapurredy was very hands on with her patient she was a good doctor. I guess once she built up her clients that changed. The last appointment I had with her after waiting for an extremely long period of time she came in the room and was very rushed and didn't even allow me to address all of my concerns. That was definitely a red flag for me. My recent experience with them allowed me to see that this place does not care about their patients. They are only after money. I could not get a refill on a prescription without paying for an office visit. Which is definitely a rip off because the prescription was not a control substance. I was led to pay for a zoom call. Only to pay and still not get my prescription refilled. As soon as the call started the doctor said ok what prescription do you need. No hello what medical concerns do you have nothing. Very impersonal. If that wasn't enough, I made several calls to the clinic for them to fix this and was referred to the office manager. Who is a very ignorant ghetto and extremely unprofessional. She's trash garbage and is not fit to be a manager. This place is a scam and I would highly not recommend any one go here that wants good professional efficient service. read more

It takes forever to receive the lab results. I received email lab results are ready to view on portal https://health.healow.com/ on Aug 25th. But I cannot review it as it is not available. Looks like my lab results are controlled by Clinic. Nobody in Clinic knows online system enough to help with reports. I called today on Aug 29th, and i am told I can view my lab reports after doctor's review only. But i received email on Aug 25th visit summary available to view. Now, I am stuck and waiting to see my reports . Medical negligence and not allowing patients to view their medical report can be risk. There is no way for me to wait for doctor or nurse to call me and release my reports. I wish patient had right to view their lab results without the control of clinic. Not only this, I am continuously calling for 7 days to talk to nurse about my prescription but nobody calls back. Doctor is good, but the staff is not at all organized and helpful. Please share if anybody else faces it. Thanks read more

Dr McGuinn is the single best physician I've ever meet. He treats me and my wife like people. He listens, he remembers and he's authentic. I feel safe that my health is taken care of. read more

A great staff with wonderful doctors who actually care about their patients. Dr McGinn is a really personable, knowledgeable doctor who always makes time for his patients. read more

A caring medical staff. Dr. Bayyapureddy along with the other medical Doctors are very thorough. The doctors take time to explain your diagnosis. Treatment is swift and medicines (when needed) are prescribed. Staff Nurses take care of you as well. We have been coming here for over two years. Either location is fine (Cumming or Canton). We normally make an appointment to go to the Cumming location. The Doctors refer you to Specialists when it becomes necessary. I am stunned by the lower reviews. My husband and I have been very happy with our healthcare at Windermere. The office staff are welcoming and helpful. read more

I enjoyed that this clinic had evening appointments because I work 9-5 like everyone else who has health insurance *eye roll.* They called to see if I could come in earlier because they close at 6:30. Why have appointments at 6:15? I just cancelled and will go somewhere else. I also had bloodwork there done with a routine physical. My thyroid was very low when I looked at the results online. No one called me to tell me my levels were low, so I had to make my own appointment. Would go somewhere else. read more

Shady billing practices. My wife went in for her annual and was charged for an additional visit for writing a prescription to refill her medication. How do you charge for a different office visit that never happened? Insurance scammers that refuse to speak with us. We've left several messages to speak with the office manager. Avoid the Canton office at all costs! read more

The quality of care is subpar. I went for a new patient/annual physical. Being a registered nurse for 32 years, when I say "one visit was enough for me not to return, I mean it. I don't want to speak specifics on this one particular provider's character. Why would a practice automatically schedule follow-up appointments without speaking with the patient and expect you to attend. They use telemedicine as a cash cow! Why would you schedule and want to bill my insurance company for a tele-medicine (I was seen for a physical 4-5 months prior) appointment to reorder a medication that I have been taking for years. It isn't like they were monitoring my blood pressure. My medication should have been renewed during my physical (that is a different experience). I recommend the state and CMS (Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services) in Washington DC investigate their practices. Also, check out their call center. read more

Dr. Bayyapureddy and her staff are awesome. I also see the NP, Katy who provides excellent service as well. The office staff is very busy, but quick to address your needs even if you stop by without an appointment. The office is very flexible with scheduling which is why both my husband and I chose her as our primary care doctor. read more

I was directed to Windermere Clinic by the physician I was working for back in 2021. The sole reason I went there was to get the Moderna vaccination that he set us up to receive. I was covered by insurance at the time. The wait at the first visit was 1.5 hours just to see an MA. I NEVER saw a doctor and I've received invoice after invoice from them for two years now. Each time I call, they state they will look into it and get back with me. Then comes another bill months later. Said invoices come from Northside PatientCo and mind you, they state they are calling Windermere for answers. No one responds. Not ONCE did anyone call me back and now they've sent me to collections. At the very least, I deserve answers or an explanation of charges. What kind of customer service ignores a patient's request and has them sent to collections thus putting a derogatory mark on their credit? read more
