We have had multiple billing issues and prescription issues. The staff is burned out or complacent, they are not happy at all. The doctors are okay but follow up and diagnoses are difficult and vary depending on who you see. The facility is clean but outdated and very worn.

You start by answering a text message on your cell phone asking you to update all of your personal health information before coming in. When you come in you are told they don't pay any attention to that information.so they ask you all the information again. How many patients time has been wasted? Waited 40 minutes to be seen for an appointment made months ago. Does anyone look at these reviews? The nurses are great, the doctors are great. the office help is rude. They lack a good office manager.

The staff that I dealt with yesterday were all very nice and helpful. Emily Featherstone was the provider that I saw, and she was very professional and personable. This place is my new primary care provider! Thank you all for all that you do!
