Since it was a weekend I scheduled an appointment at Physician’s Care. The facility was clean and the staff helpful.  After a short wait I saw the nurse followed by the doctor - both were professional, personable and thorough.   I’d certainly use them again

The only reason I didn’t give wait time a 5 star review is because I had scheduled my appointment and did my registration online and I still had to wait about 30 minutes. I expected to wait about 15 minutes but not 30. I probably could have just walked in and waited the same amount of time because I was the only one in the waiting room when I got there. However, on the plus side, I was still called back and attended to promptly before the others who checked in after me were called back.

I have been having issues with extreme dizziness, earache, headaches, nausea, I finally decided to go to Dr to see what was going on and I was informed that I had inner ear. The staff was very friendly and efficient and the nurse and Dr. did an awesome job getting my ear irrigated enough to finally see there was no damage to my ear drum. Thank you all👍

I got a dot physical. I did not understand the paper work that dmv asked for. I called back and the person who answered the phone took the time to look up what I needed. He told me what I needed to do.

Trauma Centers are hard to manage. A person of 60 having chest pain will get into the back room much faster than a flu victim or minor injury. Nonetheless, when you are in pain, the wait can seem forever, and as we wait, we get anxious and angry. I have been here several times. Yesterday, when I arrived the place was packed. My injury was bad enough to move me to the head of the line. Other times, I had to wait. Perspective is everthing! My doctor, Sanchez, as well as the staff were wonderful. Peace and all good things, in this life and the next.
