Scheduling was super easy, I arrived a few minutes before the appointment time, but check in seemed to take forever. There were 2 people in front of us and it took over 15 minutes. The appointment itself was fairly quick. When I went to pick up a prescription I had to call the office back because the dose didn’t get sent over to the pharmacy.  Overall I would definitely go back

I woke up this AM with UTI sx. My insurance sent me to Tran Urgent Care. I was pleasantly surprised by the ease of scheduling, the care, and the prompt care as well. I would like to see an improved patient portal experience. The provider and staff were kind and knowledgeable.

Very easy to schedule appt for a same day. Was surprised by the fact that they are paperless and in order to view anything you have to download their app. It’s been 2 days and still no results, as for the medication you have to go on the appt and send it your self to the pharmacy otherwise you will not get it. Overall it was a good visit but it could have improved on some things for sure.

Woke up early am with a sever stomach ache, vomiting, and diarrhea.  Ended up with chest pain.  Was able to get an appointment on line for 8:15.  Arrived at 8:00.  Got checked in right away and got looked at quickly.  Diagnosis was spot on and prescription worked fantastic.  Everyone was professional and personable.  It was a great experience overall.

I needed to get in the same day.  The waiting list was approximately 3-4 hours out, so they took my name and sent me home until they had an opening. It wound up being only about 1.5 hours to wait and I was able to do so in the comfort of my home.  Once I arrived, I was in and out in 30 minutes.  Staff was great!

The assistant and/or nurse didn’t seem particularly comfortable working with kids, and the provider came across as overly aggressive and lacking patience with scared, anxious children. My son was resistant to the oral and ear exams, and I felt the provider was too forceful in their approach, focusing on “getting the job done” rather than handling the situation with care. While I understand the need to complete the examination, a bit more patience and understanding would have been greatly appreciated, especially given how ill, tired, and frightened my child already was.

Check in staff and office were amazing. Very clean and friendly. Issue was the wait time of the actual appointment. I had an appointment for 9 am, did the pre-check in, uploaded all my docs, and got to the office at 8:50 am. Paid the copay and just waited to get to the room. Nurse did the check in (she was very nice), and then i waited and waited for the caregiver, about 25-30 minutes of waiting. And then after talking to the caregiver for less than 5 minutes, she said she had an idea and left the room. Did not hear back again for another 25+ minutes until i walked to the lobby and asked if I was supposed to just wait further. I have a very long work day and waiting incessantly was horribly annoying. Turns out I was forgotten about and I just needed to be given a piece of paper with pharmaceutical instructions. Literally wasted so much time. It felt about 90% of this process was waiting for the caregiver, extraordinarily frustrating. Especially when they don't tell you how long you're going to wait, you just wait and wait and wait. It seriously felt like talking to ChatGPT was easier. I even knew the pharmaceutical drug I needed, its just that it has to go through prescription. I can not wait till this is no longer a part of the health care experience.

I called the clinic to ask about an appt because of my granddaughter's eye problem. There were no appts available, however Mi-lihn (sp?) was so helpful & explained about walking in. We did not have to wait long. The staff was very courteous & friendly. The PA had a great bedside manner & made sure my granddaughter understood everything. This is not her first time there. The clinic is very consistent with its service. A nice medical clinic to go to. Would recommend going here.

My 2 year old woke up with a fever and cough. I called ahead and they put me on the walk-in list while I drove over. We were seen within 15 minutes, service was quick and efficient - we were back on the car in under a hour. They were so so friendly, gentle, and patient with my sick toddler. The space was super clean and inviting. I would definitely recommend!
