Amazing !!!
Verified patient
Karina, listen to my concerns and took action. She even noticed a few things that I did not mention and recommended that I follow up with some of my other doctors
Verified patient
Zoc Doc had her listed s a HRT provider but she isn’t. She is a primary care physician. I had to switch my PCP on my insurance card to her before the visit. Which I hesitated because she was supposed to be a HRT provider but I did it anyway so that I could get to meet with her. She told me she was didn’t prescribe HRT but she ordered all the blood work needed and even to rule out other possible diagnoses . Had it drawn right there. Great bedside manner, very informative and . knowledgeable. Also a great listener I felt comfortable sharing my embarrassing symptoms of menopause plus a huge weight gain. I appreciated her apology and her making my hour trip worth it.
Verified patient
I would not return to this doctor / doctor's office. I had to wait more than 30 minutes to be seen (which they did apologize for) causing my appointment for a routine check up to drag on for over an hour. The doctor also essentially gave me a sales pitch on all the services offered within their healthcare network. The whole thing was uncomfortable and felt like it prioritized profits over caring for me as a patient. I also had to do a virtual video appointment just to get blood test results, which added an additional unexpected charge.
Great all around appointment
Verified patient
It's annoying and so discriminating when you're honest about your mental health and you keep getting asked about STD's. If I said no the first time, it's a no. Don't ask me again and if I'm sure. I said no. Mental health does not equal promiscuity.
