I cannot say enough wonderful things about Physicians Plan of Hickory! From the moment you walk…read morethrough the door, you are treated like more than just a patient--you are made to feel like family. Shafney, Jill, Thadra, and Heather are absolutely amazing. They are always welcoming, kind, helpful, and genuinely happy to see you. Their warmth and professionalism make every visit such a positive experience, and they truly set Physicians Plan apart. And Jennifer--I absolutely adore her and genuinely look forward to seeing her each time! Her knowledge and professionalism are top-notch, but what makes her even more special is how personable and caring she is. She takes the time to listen, explain, and make you feel completely comfortable and confident in your care. Last, but certainly not least, Dr. DiOrio. There honestly isn't enough space in a review to say how incredible he is. He is the reason I originally began going to Physicians Plan, and I am so thankful that I did. He is one of the most professional, knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuine physicians I have ever met. He is truly an asset to the medical field. What stands out most about Dr. DiOrio is that he is one of those rare physicians who you can tell truly cares about his patients. He listens, he takes his time, and his knowledge and expertise are second to none. You never feel like just another appointment on the schedule. If you are looking for Botox, weight-loss services, facials, skincare, or simply a team that genuinely cares about helping you look and feel your best, Physicians Plan of Hickory is the place to go. The entire staff is exceptional, and the level of care and customer service is unmatched. Hands down, the best place in town. You will not be disappointed! -Laura Armstrong Barnes

Best Weight Loss Clinic around! The entire staff truly care about their patients. Coming into this…read moreclinic I had no hope, I was tearful even talking about my weight. They break down food nutrition, macros, proteins, which is so important to long term success and maintaining a healthy weight. Once I reached my goal I knew the importance of my eating habits as I swore I did not want to yo-yo with my weight anymore. Each month during my weight loss journey they encouraged and supported me. I highly recommend Physician's Plan if you want to truly change your life.

It must have been a bad week for Xcel fitness with me. Having just moved to the area i visited…read morethree Gyms. The first day i went to Xcel and a very pleasant woman showed me around and outlined the various plans. I liked the variety of machines and cardio equipment . While the locker room has a strange layout it didn't matter as i seldom use it. In her spiel and on the web site they pitch their Personal Training ability and how they guide you. So when i signed up i specifically asked how PT works. Well, actually they don't have PT themselves but instead they have independent contractors who work for them. In order to get PT i have to call one of their trainers and organize it myself. This seemed very odd but the woman then handed me two cards and suggested that i call them. Okay, i thought it odd but i took the cards. I then left and called both trainers and left messages with them...twice. 4 days later i still hadn't heard back from either of them. So, i went back to the gym in the morning. The gym was essentially empty so i asked the guy at the front desk if he could walk me through a simple circuit using the machines. He told me sure and that he would be right with me. I wanted to get started so i said i would start on Cardio and when he had a chance just come grab me....50 minutes later i was still on the treadmill and i had watched this guy walk by a few times and chat with friends and wipe down a few machines. Twice i waved at him and he gave me the "be there in a second wave." Finally i finished my cardio and went back to the desk and now he was gone. So I left. 3 days later and still no word from the trainers I went back in and talked to the front desk yet again. I explained the situation and pointed out that no trainer had called me back . The woman at the front desk asked who i called and i literally pulled the two cards sitting on the desk and showed her. She said looking at one card "Oh he doesn't work here anymore"...huh? them why is his card on the desk...That seemed to baffle her as .much as it did me. The other trainer "she hadn't seen for awhile" Huh? She said there was a trainer hanging out there she could call. To be honest I had had it . I explained that on my last trip I had tried to get help for 50 minutes and was ignored. She seemed uninterested. Finally, i decided i would just cancel my membership. Of course , having been a member for a week, and having no trainer call me and be given a card from a guy who didn't work there at all anymore and having been shuffled off by the front desk guy on the last trip she still would have to charge me 75 dollars to cancel. Seriously? To be honest i would have paid 100 to get out of this disorganized mess. Clearly, misinformation and false promises meant little to these folks so it seemed an expensive yet valuable lesson. I ended up joining Spa Athletic where the owner took me on a tour and had a personal trainer call me to set up an appointment an hour after joining. Like i said maybe it was just a bad few days at Xcel but i find it hard to believe that i'm the only one who experienced this. Again, its a nice workout space but thats all i could see going for it after my experience .

Clearly some of these other reviews were written by staff/and or people who are confused about…read morewhere they are. Equipment goes down, it stays down for a long time. They allow people in the hot tub without showering off, there is, in fact, no signage to this effect until they have already passed the showers and entered the pool area. Thought rinsing off would be a given but not so. There is not enough equip. unless you are a weightlifter and it's often hard to get a machine because there are so few ( except treadmill ). They often don't replace the wipes in a timely fashion tho they have little signs that say "don't forget". Some may say the pool is heated, I contest that ( and no, they do not have towells) but do have plenty of lockers. Staff is friendly enough, but any discussion you might try to have with managemnt about a concern will end with them becoming arbitrary. ( defined by Webster as, " decisive, yet unreasoned." Or, because I say so. I've gotten myself shaped up but I'd rather take my money, get a modest elliptical and hang a heavy bag in the cellar.

A search indicated a pool/workout area within the Phifer Wellness Center. After a lunch at Moon Dog Pizza, I drove over to check out the Wellness Center, adjacent to Grace Hospital in Morganton. The Drexel Heritage Aquatic Center is located within the Wellness Center and features a 3'/6'/3' depth pool, sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, and shower area. The facility is very clean and well maintained. Towels are provided, as are spacious lockers for use during your visit. The heated pool is placed within an area with a restful colour scheme (no glaring lights!). Fast-paced 'workout' music is piped-in for those working with movement exercises. There are several access ladders, as well as a set of access steps into the pool. Additionally, access is provided for those needing wheelchair accessibility. It must be noted that while several pieces of water rescue apparatus are placed along the pool area, there is NO LIFEGUARD on duty, ever. The parking area is clean and reasonably level, with plenty of Handicap Parking available. Drexel Heritage Aquatic Center and the Wellness Center accepts members of the SILVER SNEAKER program, at NO COST! This allows visitors carrying membership in the Silver Sneaker program to continue their wellness programs when away from their home base, or local residents access to a fine gym/pool at little or no expense. Consider the Phifer Wellness Center your very own 'Workout 'Gem' in the Upper Piedmont'!
