Walked into urgent care, checked my son in at the kiosk. Walked around to find a front counter person to fully check in and they tell me that they are CLOSED. I was confused as it says they didn't close until SEVEN PM so I mentioned this, only for them to say that due to MAX CAPACITY they aren't taking any more patients. What!? When did URGENT CARE start doing this?! Close a half hour early because the doctor doesn't wanna take anymore patients?! Could have placed a sign on the front door.

When I arrived for a 9 am appt the registration clerk informed me that my appt was with the wrong type of specialist and I was now scheduled with a different dr. for 11 am. Their scheduler had suggested the original dr. I have severe pain radiating down my left leg & need a shot asap and was under the impression I would get it today. When the second dr. finally saw me after I waited another hour, he informed me that the shot must be scheduled for a surgical center.
I explained I expected the shot today and could not wait several weeks. I became very upset. He asked if I wanted to see his "manager." I said yes, hoping some accommodation would be made considering their errors, but that did not happen. I reluctantly agreed to see the dr. for a consult. He now refused to see me. I asked to see the other pain management dr. and the manager said she would have to get his permission because he too might refuse me. Essentially they blacklisted me after enraging me through miscommunication and mismanagement.

God awful place, run the other way. They treat you like cattle there. Most of the staff have a horrible bedside manor and the female staff and doctors act like they are in a high school clique. Hope you have the best insurance there too as they will do unnecessary xrays or other messages to make as much money as possible on you. They don't see patients they see dollar signs.

When I start by saying that I've always had great orthopedic care there, however, they've reached an all-time high in customer disservice with their automated answering service. It is IMPOSSIBLE to speak to a real person. I missed two calls from my doctor asking me to return his call. When I go to return this call I'm met with a brick wall of an answering service. All I can do is leave a message so that he can leave me a message so that I can leave him a message so that he can leave me a message.ad infinitum. Ridiculous! Frustrating! Inexcusable!

I've been trying to make an appointment with the office for over a week, and they tell you to go online to make the appointment but there is no availability, there is no calendar, there is no dates, there is nothing. I just tried to make an appointment online three weeks ago and there was availability, now a big sign says office! I've called the office, actually all five of them and not gotten anywhere except for a voice message.
The text system that they had isn't even in place anymore. If Dr. Andrew Stewart wasn't at this location I wouldn't even be bothered, the hassle to get an appointment is ridiculous. I should not have to leave a message, go to loopholes, and write a public poor rating to get an appointment for my knee that feels like it's falling out of the socket. If your orthopedist isn't Andrew Stewart! Don't bother!

Worst organizational structure possible. Doctors and staff seemed competent but communication is non-existant. I dumped them after first spending an entire week trying to contact someone to make an appointment because their website is completely non-functional, and then waited in their waiting room for close to 2 hours before walking out. BTW they called me the day of my 2nd appointment and cancelled it. They do seem very effective making sure they collect their money though.

No return phone calls from staff in a 2 week period after leaving numerous messages about upcoming surgery. Dr McLaughlin never responded on info needed for surgery after his own staff emailed him about it 4 times! It's horrible how bad they've become! I used to be an advocate for them 10 years ago but no longer. I just canceled surgery and will not return. Definitely need new management; using "we're experiencing higher then normal call volume " for the on hold wait is a joke as they don't call back either.
If their patients aren't there 1st concern then they're in the wrong business! I called a new orthopedic company and they returned a call same day and set up appointment. I guess I should've read reviews before I went back to them, it seems most feel the same way!
