You'd think after being their patient for 26 years they'd have a little flexibility when you're 10 minutes late. Lackluster care.

I had a great first experience with MNGI yesterday for an endoscopy. The nurses, anesthesiologist, and Dr. were all excellent. Everyone was so kind, and caring. I was well taken care of.

I saw the first doctor available for a UTI. Three days into the prescription, I got a call telling me it was the wrong medicine, and I needed to stop taking it and go pick up a new one. Two weeks later, symptoms were back. This is a miserable condition, I called on a Wednesday to see if the doctor could simply prescribe another round of meds. I received no response whatsoever, and was so miserable ended up having to go into urgent care over the weekend.

To add insult to injury, received a call Monday morning from an employee less than eager to help, who told me that a random doctor, whom I didn't see for this, is 'sending his apologies for the late response'. No solution, just an 'apology'.I asked why she didn't go to the female dr I saw last time, her only response- 'I don't know what you want me to do.' Wow.just wow.my entire family has been going to this practice for over 40 years. But if they're to busy to care about health, must be time to go somewhere else.

Shady billing practices. I received $250 bill for just a visit to get my blood pressure prescription refill! Just to compare it with my colleague with exactly same insurance went to Mayo clinic to see a specialist and got $250 bill. How can a GP with just BP refill prescription charge as much as a Mayo clinic specialist with full check up! They don't even spare patients during annual check ups that are completely covered by insurance provider. They charged me $100 for it making excuse that since I have high blood pressure it will cost extra! Better to place your life and well being in hands of an honest Doctor.

Phenomenal level of care from the MDs and NPs. Very attentive and exceptional staff. Moved all my primary care to this place.

I have been a patient here for years now, and absolutely love the staff and my PA, and other PA's and doctors I've seen. I moved to the Cities eleven years ago, and had some sad experiences from doctors when trying to find a Primary Care Provider. Because I am older, female, and asthmatic, I was rushed through appointments, and had few questions answered and the ones I was allowed to ask were quickly dismissed.

My providers at FAFP listen to me and are responsive to the whole me--not just health issues but social/emotional problems as well. It's important to be able to trust providers, and I feel that my PA has my best interests in mind. Thank you!

Went here for 6-7 years. My PA Suzy Runkell was wonderful and always gave me the support and care I needed. She was both pragmatic and empathetic with my care. Had some odd experiences with a Dr. Berge and Dr. Ledder. Saw Dr. Berge once and he stated I may have acanthosis nigricans, a pre-diabetic condition, when my BP and A1C came back normal. Dr. Ledder refused to see me because I was a "young and female" patient. Avoid the male practitioners if you are a POC lmao.
