I was treated with utmost care today in my time of need. They were incredibly busy when I got there, and they did not treat me as if they were in a hurry.

Checkin was straightforward, fill in some paper work and insurance info.  After a few minutes I spoke with the doctor, review the issue, sent out for labs, and received medication.  Very helpful staff.

When I checked in I was told the wait was 45 minutes to an hour but it was more than 2 hours before I was seen.  However, it is cold and flu season so I understand somewhat.  Everyone was super friendly and I received good care.

This place is amazing. I have no insurance so the appointment was 120$ please keep in mind the payment is due upfront! Wait time - less than 10 minutes (whole thing only took about 30/40) Scheduling - I was a walk in Check in - beyond easy! If you use your phone to preregister I imagine it would be even quicker but mine only took me 5 minutes and the receptionist offered help! Staff - phenomenal. They are amazingly friendly! I'm a yapper and don't go to the doctor often. They listened to me tell them exactly what my issue has been and for how long. They offered comfort and assistance as needed and took me seriously without judgement! This is the first place I've been to where I felt seen as a patient and not a $$$ Care - again amazing! I had an issue with my ear (ear infection maybe ruptured ear drum) they took every step necessary to assist with my issue and had me in an out in a jiffy! Tldr - payment required up from. 100% WOULD recommend. Will be coming again if I need to be seen!

I had a serious problem with my back..My Doctor Carolyn Meyer saw the pain I was in and showed real concern for the problem with her skills and provided me with medication that helped. From there she had made sure that I was taken care of thru outside help that was not in her  specialty.. that meant a lot. Special thanks to her.

Went to Cherokee Blvd Urgent Care as a walk-in out of concern for possible flu, since I had developed nagging cough after being with my father as he passed due to flu-related issues, and staying with him and my family, some of which were also being treated for flu, during his wake and funeral. After hearing my concern, Dr Sara tested for flu and covid, and performed an exam to check for other issues. Doctor and staff were exceptionally friendly and compassionate, prescribed necessary medications, and treated my wife and I on a personal basis that was above and beyond expectations for a doctor visit.

I cannot complain about the office staff, provider, or facility appearance. We usually have a positive experience here. Today was the same. However, I noticed a tray of condoms on the counter in exam room 1 like a tray of party favors. I have young kids.  Thankfully, they did not ask what they were or even notice them, but I don’t think this is a good practice. They should be put away. I have never seen this at a doctor’s office or urgent care office.

I have been coming here for years and have never been treated bad! They are very understanding and caring as long as you are there for the right reasons! They arent a pain clinic and alot of the reviews I've read that was the number one issue. Although they can refer you to pain management. I have no complaints!

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.
