Well the wait as many other reviewers said is quite long. The place itself has barely any close parking without paying by meter and the inside is not as clean as some other Dr.s places Ive been but...Dr. Michel was actually a great Dr! First impression could have been better but he was professional and really listened to my concerns. So worth the wait and I think I may switch my primary Drs.

I’m so glad I chose Dr. Michel to be my primary physician. I took a chance after finding him on ZocDoc and I’m glad I did. He’s always pleasant and goes the extra mile to help.

October 4, 2018Mallory A.Verified patient
The wait time was awful! I was the second patient in the office when it opened in the morning. They kept me waiting for over an hour. If you schedule an appointment you'd think you would be seen by a doctor at some time around then. Not here you wont. I would not recommend for anyone.
February 27, 2018Joe G.Verified patient
I’m so glad I chose Dr. Michel to be my primary physician. I took a chance after finding him on ZocDoc and I’m glad I did. He’s always pleasant and goes the extra mile to help.
November 1, 2017Charnae S.Verified patient
I showed up for my appointment 15 minutes early. The waiting room was loud with multiple people talking on their cell phones and cursing. Typically this wouldn't bother me but it was relentless for my 2 hour and 15 minute wait. By the time I finally saw the doctor the first thing he said to me was "hold on" and then spent two minutes texting on his phone. He also kept making jokes about how I looked like a teenager, which again typically wouldn't bother me but after a 2.25 hour wait was just irritating.

Dr. John Michel is great. Excellent bedside manners, really wants to help you and get you feeling better. The wait time was short which is great.
More than 1 year agoShanygne C.Verified patient
The staff take good care of patients, and they are very flexible to place your next appointment or lab work. Honestly I love them and you have to try them as well.
March 15, 2016Rock L.Verified patient
They didn't have the confirmation.
February 12, 2016Thomas B.Verified patient
My experience was great. The location was convenient and the staff was very nice. I would definitely consider keeping Dr. Michel as my primary care physician.
October 22, 2015Denise M.Verified patient
He's a attentive doc, happy I found him! Staff were also great, over all no concerns other than the usual wait you find at any
Doctors office the wait is always bad

My visit was good. Seems like allot of the patients have been going there for awhile the staff knew most people by their first name.
August 26, 2015Initials hidden
Dr Michel is so understanding and empathic, i cant imagine anyone else as my primary doctor. Most doctors are very arrogant and have made thier desicion regarding you based on your apperance. He looks past that. He listens to you and i found that ive found a doctor who can understand me and no sterotype me. That kind of doctor who has apathy towards you may get you killed. Be honest with him and you will get assisted with the utmost respect.
July 18, 2015Brandon B.Verified patient
All around bad! he took 2 phone call during the 5 minutes he was in the room with me. The ladies at the front desk assumed I was there For a drug to help with painkiller addiction Witch I wasn't just went for a check up.
