Report
The lack of diversity is a huge concern. But, the most disturbing is the lack of professional standards and accountability for the vile and disturbing behavior of employee, Katie Hyatt. Ms. Hyatt left a voice mail message for me that is so violent, threatening, and deplorable that a warning is issued to anyone interested in listening. Patients of this practice are horrified at her behavior and the fact that faced no consequences for her abusive behavior.

Well, I thought I'd seen everything, but I was cancelled as a patient. I'd already had left but being fired as a patient. Hmmm. didn't know it was a possibility for a civil, rather friendly, paying person. The whole practice just has a bad vibe. The only gem was the nurse who was friendly and competent. I also noticed the lack of diversity. I'm saying this as an old man with European ancestry. Pale as a ski slope. The only good thing I can say is making me aware of my diabetes situation. That is why they got 2 stars. Too many choices in Greensboro to put up with this. Just say no.

I think Guilford Medical is great. My primary Dr is Dr. Holwarda. He has been my doctor now for about 6 years. He is very kind, and he listens to his patients. He is very caring and shows concern. The lab techs are amazing. I have also dealt with Ms. Miller. She has helped me considerably with my diabetic medication and I am doing so much better with my A1C now. She is a great dietitian. I highly recommend this practice to anyone.

My first time here was great! Dr Mckinney was thorough and thoughtful, keeping in mind my particular situation. However, every experience thereafter I was met with a doctor that clearly does not think of patients as anything other than a time slot. "Name please? Surgery please? Money please?" Find yourself a doctor that listens and understands and is not just following the money-grubbing routine.

I've been going to this practice for many, many years and would never consider going to any other practice. I love the staff and have always been treated with courtesy and respect by everyone that works there. Dr. Russo is my doctor and he also treats my son as well. He is a wonderful doctor and spends quality time with both of us. I would never consider going to anyone else for any reason!

I have been going to this doctor office for a little over a decade now. So I think my review counts just a tad bit. This place is professional, clean, responsive and sharp. My Doctor is Doctor Perini and he has been my main doctor for all these years and he has taken care of me very well. He is a great doctor and a great human being. There is no shady business at this place. I feel like you are dealing with real, genuine people that care about you and your health. I highly recommend this place.
