Office didn't receive or schedule appointment made through this app. I'm not sure where the mix up was but thankfully the office was able to fit me in to their schedule.
Verified patient
The wait time seemed excessive since I checked in and filled out all the paperwork online ahead of time. It felt like it didn’t matter if I had an appointment time because walk-ins were getting seen just as quickly. I don’t mind waiting 10 minutes, but almost an hour past my scheduled appointment felt a bit disrespectful of my time.

Always takes time with me and explains things. Very caring and I dont feel like I am being rushed in and not listened to.
Verified patient
I loved the online appointment and check-in. The doctor and staff were fantastic and I highly recommend this clinic.
Verified patient
The appointment I had with this "Professional" gave me the sense that money was the only thing he was interested in.
Verified patient
I'm pleased with the services I've received through this medical facility. I would highly recommend to others.
Well, it is a pretty well organized smooth flowing office. Also I trust what we discuss stays in the room.
It is always easy when I go see him. In and out in no time and always pleased with the diagnosis.
The wait time was LONG because they did not receive the paperwork that I filled out through you ??

She and your nurse were very professional and very, very nice. You have a very helpful staff.
Hands down the best doctor in Pawleys Island, maybe even the entire Grand Strand.

I thought I was going to see him based on my confirmation email. But he was nowhere in sight. I received a prescription for pain and hope that the results of my blood work are forthcoming.

Very good doctor
Verified patient
Very caring and serious about patients health. My son who is very picky about doctors due to his mom being a nurse and he listened to horror stories, and was very happy with the outcome of this visit. Thank you ZOCDOC because as his mother I live in VA, and found Dr. Congdon, this was a very positive experience. Once again My son was very pleased with this visit.
Verified patient
I love Dr Congdon, he is A+ bedside manner, he always takes time to listen to my issues and tries to help me understand the best choice for my health care. His head nurse is excellent and she has always taken very good care of me while at the office.

Very good and on time
Verified patient
The doctors listen to their patients and treat them like human beings and not just another number. You feel respected. I respect the doctors, their professional knowledge and how you are treated as a patient.
Verified patient
Waited for forty-five minutes past the appointment time. No apology or even an acknowledgement of the delay. Nurse who took me to the examination room was not wearing a name tag and never introduced herself. It took her over 20 minutes to refill a prescription.
Verified patient
I saw Dr Taylor but she was awesome
Verified patient
The treatment like always was good but I used this zoc doc to book my appointment and the ladies at the front desk didn't get it. I was considered a walk in so I had to wait longer than usual. I will not use this website again I will just call next time to make an appointment.
Verified patient
Everyone was very nice and helfui
Verified patient
I was very pleased with Dr. Condoms compassion and concerns. I have been living down in south Carolina for 12 years and I think I finally found a doctor who actually cares for their patient and not just the dollar sign!!! He was worth the wait.
Verified patient
I just moved to the area. Looking for a new primary care physician and I couldn't have found a better choice. I was a little skeptical at first finding a new doctor over the Internet but I am so glad that I did. I highly recommend Dr. Gerald Congdon,MD and his staff. This was a very friendly, professional and attentive staff. Thank you guys so much!
Verified patient
Nice courteous staff.
Outstanding Doctor with a personal touch
Verified patient
Very thorough and accommodating. Great visit.
Very good experience with the staff. The staff was very organized and professional. However my appointment booked through ZocDoc was for 1255. The office closes from 1-2 for lunch. So I had to come back at 2PM. Also the office did not receive any of the pre appointment information I filled out on ZocDoc.
Verified patient
I understand it was The end of The day but there was still no right for The girls at the front desk to be acting like they were. The girls at the front desk were more worried about being catty to each other and arguing than taking care of the patients. The male nurse practitioner was great though and so was the female nurse practitioner was great.
It was great and they worked with me considering that they had no clue i was coming, never use through the website, always call to make an appointment.
Verified patient
the problem was with no LIVE voice awnsering the phone . . . get a grip SERVICE SERVICE SERVICE and no one ever returned my call from last Friday!! But I really enjoyed my experance, while it was clear that we had to go theu several steps to assure I wasn't abusing, no one ever treated me like I was a drug abuser! Good thing too! I have a short temper for disrespect . . that's why I made sure I wore my Navy Veterns hat . . . Thank for a great interview Jack
Verified patient
very caring professionals.
I have been to many doctors in the past two years. They push you out the door in 3 minutes. This doctor took the time to get an actual diagnosis. I hope to come to him for all my care. It was great.
Very helpful
