I had my appointment at 4pm. I confirmed it and everything only to arrive at the office and not be allowed it. I buzzed the doorbell for almost 30mins and the door never opened. Called several times and no response. Left a voicemail. Its been 2 days now and I still haven’t received a callback.
Dr. O offers Zoom appt. however when sending medication to the pharmacy you don't get it to the next day when you really need it on the same day. Overall the experience was good
Verified patient
I didn't have a good personal experience while waiting there was no clear communication. My insurance wasn't verified and had to wait for that. I provided that before coming to my visit. They take such a long time to see me and the Dr wasn't profesional. I wouldn't reccomend anyone to go here as it's not in a safe area. While waiting there were patients fighting with one another and there was family drama.
Verified patient
She wasn’t there and the lobby let me know “she doesn’t really show up until 11:30” even though they admittedly saw my appointment was set for 10 o’clock
Verified patient
Worst service ever, wouldn’t wish that on anyone. I booked an appointment for 2pm which was confirmed, fetched my daughter early from school and only to get to their office and being told that they don’t have my appointment confirmation and DR isn’t around. The receptionist took down my info and told me that I will have a video consultation at 2pm and no one had the decency to even call me or text me to let me know anything, absolutely pathetic
I was told that I would have a zoom call appointment at 1:30pm. My kids missed school for this appointment and I missed school for this appointment, that never happened. I called and called all morning and afternoon and never saw nor talked to the Dr, only a receptionist.
Verified patient
My 7 yr old son fell ill and I needed to book appt asap fever over 103, looked on doc for first availability found this office, Unorganized the whole office we waited after arriving 30 mins early to hear the staff acting as if I wasn’t there the front desk guy asked me to sign n I did. Mind I’m only one in office the nurse saw is sitting my sin in tears and asked if we checked in the guy never even put us in line. Which again no one was n waiting area but me! They took Covid test for my son n said they would call with results next morning! This was wend, no call Thursday I called first thing someone answered said no results repeated my contact info n said would call! This is Covid testing for an 8 yr old! No sense of urgency I call back at 3 same response from same person! No call back again this is Covid testing for an 8 yr old I’m trying to find out additional precautions school n home! Today is Friday still no results, so I guess we will go to get him tested!!
Verified patient
I love my experience for my son, what stood out the most was how attentive the doctor and staff were to my needs. I love how the doctor filled me with knowledge with questions and concerns i and about my son, it was great !
Verified patient
see Google review. never come here. ever.
Verified patient
Fantastic
Verified patient
The staff were friendly and nice. My concerns were not dismissed but addressed. Since I’ve been going to another doctor my sons skin issues were ignored or I was told that that’s how his skin was. But this doctor was able to notice it and give me something for it.
Verified patient
My son went here for an earache. Was prescribed eardrops and antibiotics. The wrote to high of a dosage for his age and size so the pharmacist wouldn't fill it. Thank God for the Walgreens pharmacist who has more knowledge than my child's doctor! I have contacted this place currently 3 times on this matter to get fixed and nothing!! ! First and LAST visit here! Baffled on the amount of confusion that's going on at this location. Like how did the not make a two-minute call to address the error? So, I can give my child antibiotics, so he won't be miserable. I have made a whole new appointment with a new doctor so I can have a legit prescription to help my child. I'm tired of waiting and watching my child cry in pain! I could go on and on, don't waste your time!
