I was very apprehensive at how well the NM DOH was going to be able to complete this massive task. I had been listening to media tales of state departments of health from around the country scrambling to administer their vaccines. I felt secure that it was going to happen. During the previous week I had received two reminders . . . and on the morning of the appointment I got a third reminder. It was going to happen. When it was "my day" to accept my vaccine fate, I left an hour early for a 15 minute drive. I had taken the entire afternoon off knowing that i would be lucky if that is all the time it would take. When I arrived at the NM DOH vaccine administration location, there was a line of cars. Oh great. Early and I was still going to have to wait. An employee immediately walked up to the car and very politely gave me an overview of what the process was. Oh great. One long line of cars that split into two lines and then wrapped around a huge parking lot. They gave me a short form to complete, an information sheet on the type/manufacturer of the vaccine I was going to receive, told me I would need my insurance card, an ID and I would have to take my jacket off. The vaccine was to be administered without ever getting out of the car. All along the car lines moving fairly quickly. Barely time to fill out the form. Periodically another employee stepped up to the window and input a little more info (1st dose? 2nd dose? registration number? birth date?) . . . and the cars kept moving. Two lines became one again. At the end of the third turn of the horseshoe around the parking lot two nurses stepped up to the window. One gave me verbal instructions on how to treat the injection site and where I was to park for 15 minutes while I waited to assure I had no reaction. When I turned to the second nurse I realized she had already given me the shot (absolutely did NOT feel a thing) and was putting a Band-Aid on it. Whow!! That was fast. This entire process was simple, but well coordinated. My afternoon turned into less than 45 minutes - including the 15 minutes I had to wait for any reaction. Everything I've seen from the New Mexico Department of Health since I moved back to NM is that they really have their act together. A well oiled machine. Makes me feel very secure in our New Mexico State Health Department.

This is a complaint about the NMDOH. I am over 75 years of age. I am also physically impaired…read more There is to be a mobility impaired option now. However, I called 1-855-600-3453. the hotline for the State & picked 0 for help as I was a told to do. I got a recording which told me to call 855-600-3453. I then called back picked option 0 then option 4 when I called again. Basically, I called back 4 times and got no where! I even called other numbers for DOH and they also told me to call -855=600-3453. I will not call any other numbers as they have not gotten their act together! I cannot waste any more of my time and just will not get the vaccine. Since I have caregivers who wear masks I will forget to pursue it. Tell our governor that there are mobility impaired people who will not waste their time and will be unvaccinated. She can extend it to people who are 16 years old to get the numbers up!!

In mid June. I ordered hearing aids and other items in order to connect to my laptop. At the time…read moreI placed my order, I was told it would be 7-10 days to come in. We are now in mid July, and I have heard NOTHING. Making several attempts to contact them has not been successful as they do not answer their phones and all messages have fallen on deaf ears (pun intended) as I have not received any response. If this is the hassle I have to go through to get my hearing aids, I'd hate to think of the type of service I would get for any follow-up attempts. I have attempted to cancel my order through TruHearing but they also cannot get a response as they need the order back from McCurley to cancel. So it looks like even the supplier can't get any action. I would hate to get a lawyer involved just to cancel an order that was never received because McCurley staff continue to ignore me. Funny how just the 5 star reviews are the only ones posted.

I got my first pair of hearing aids over ten years ago from McCurley. They lasted five years and I…read moreuse them as a back-up, especially when I travel - in case I misplace the pair I use now. I opted to get an updated version of what I had. The new ones are still great after another five years. I just went in for some help replacing the tips of them (at no charge). I was afraid to monkey with them on my own. The office was very helpful and friendly, taught me how to replace the tips myself and gave me some extras. You will not get care and quality like this from places like Cosco -- I know because my partner went there and wants to take his hearing aids back and go to McCurley.

DO NOT trust G & M Medical Center & MedSpa -- I paid $965.86 and got absolutely nothing in return…read more I went in for a Tribella treatment, paid $965.86 out of pocket, and after two sessions, I saw zero results. No improvement, no follow-up, no concern. I reached out multiple times -- by phone, messages, and even went in person -- and was completely ignored. When I finally showed up to address my concerns, the staff staged a disgusting scene. The receptionist put on a fake crying act while two others came out accusing me of yelling -- even though I was calm and simply asking for answers. It was clearly a setup to distract from the fact that they had no intention of helping or standing by their services. I even recorded the interaction -- that's how insane it got. Rather than offer any kind of refund, explanation, or professionalism, they had the nerve to call the police and warn me not to return -- as if I was the problem for wanting accountability. This place is a complete scam. Unprofessional, dishonest, and manipulative. I lost $965.86, got zero results, and was treated like a threat for speaking up. Save yourself the money, the stress, and the disrespect -- stay far away from G & M Medical Center & MedSpa.

Cured my Blepharospasm, and more…read more.. A year ago I developed an unusual condition with my eyes where they involuntarily closed and were irritated, forcing me to not be able to drive and work. After several visits to optometrists who incorrectly diagnosed the condition as dry-eye and much research later, I determined that it is a neurological condition. Getting an appointment from a neurological specialist take months; while no work or driving or normal life. More research and talking to others, an eye doctor's assistant said she had heard of this condition being treated with botox injections in the eyelids. I setup an appointment with NM Eye Associates and it helped the condition (a "band-aid" solution, not correcting the cause), but with side-affects. The best part of the botox was that now I know the problem: Blepharospasm. The condition I had is called Blepharospasm, which is an abnormal contraction of the eyelid muscles. Now that I know the condition...more research, and more options, such as acupuncture. I setup an appointment with Dr. Geoffrey N. Hayes at Endpoint Wellness. Geoffrey say me that day. I had never had acupuncture before, and didn't have an opinion regarding if I believed in eastern medicine or not. One thing is for sure, I didn't know how it worked. Geoffrey talked with be to describe the basics of opening-up or releasing the chi (energy) and blood. He said due to my condition (again, unable to work and live a normal life for months), I should receive treatment frequently at first. I received acupuncture around my eyes (mainly) and other normal spots every other day for the first couple of weeks. After the first two visit I noticed relief, I was VERY excited. Within 2 weeks the condition was much better, at least to the point where I could drive and work and live normally. We changed our appointments to 2 per week, then 1 per week, then 1 per 2 weeks, and now 1 per 3 weeks. I AM CURED!!! ENDPOINT WELLNESS saved me. In a very short time Geoffrey resolved my problem, where many other doctors could not. I now go to Endpoint Wellness about every 3 weeks. Now I ask Geoffrey to focus on other stuff in addition to my eyes; such as allergies or injuries or soreness or general tune-ups. It is amazing how far-reaching acupuncture is regarding our bodies. In addition to the acupuncture by Endpoint Wellness, some other benefits are that they take most medical insurance, they support other muscle/body rehab work, and Geoffrey is open / willing to help in any area you may need assistance. Geoffrey and Jennifer are personal, very nice, and great contributors to our health...wonderful assets to our Albuquerque community.

I'm alive and I'm extremely grateful to be alive because of Renee and my cardiologist. They continue to work closely to make sure I'm managing multiple and very complex conditions in the best way possible. I'm currently only taking necessity medication which is such a huge relief. I have been seeing Renee for almost two years and to have my very own TRUE concierge care that is managed like true coordinated care. It's a HUGE difference and let me tell you why: Renee was able to confirm that another doctor misdiagnosed me. Since she has taken over my care, I feel heard, cared for and recently had some serious heart problems and other debilitating conditions she has helped coordinate care with my cardiologist and my orthopedic surgeon. Energee Medicine puts your health first and is always willing to go above and beyond with research , referrals and offers you a true seat at the table when making important health care decisions. I'm under 45 and have some major issues that if she didn't catch; the other medication could have really done some damage to my body. In two years I have stopped taking at least 4 medications that I didn't like because I felt like a numb zombie. Now.... I have a chance at living a happy life while still being my healthiest!

I have been a patient of Renee Ott, FNP-BC, at Energee Medicine's Concierge Primary Care for over a…read moreyear, and the care I've received has been exceptional. She is incredibly attentive and takes the time needed to dig deep and address concerns promptly. She is also truly accessible--you can actually talk to her or be seen when you're sick, instead of hearing, "We can see you in 3 or 6 months," which I've experienced elsewhere. I have some complex health issues, and Renee has done an outstanding job guiding me toward better health. She is one of those "super smart" providers with a deep breadth of knowledge and experience, and she is genuinely invested in taking care of her patients. My lab work has improved significantly, and I've lost weight as a result of her guidance. For the first time, I feel like I have someone who truly has my back and is in my corner when it comes to my health. I believe this is the future of medicine--getting back to real care in healthcare. Renee is the real deal. I highly recommend making an appointment to meet her. You'll never want to go back to, "We can see you in 6 weeks or 3 months!" My sister is also going to her now, and she is taking new patients.
