Very little parking. Does not write prescriptions for tier 2 drugs that I am currently on. Told us to go to a pain clinic.

The doctors and nurses are good, but it was a Saturday, and there were many walk-ins, which delayed my appointment.
Romina L.Verified patient
Dr. James is such a caring doctor. I never feel rushed...he always takes his time in listening to my concerns.

Zocdoc did not work. They had no record of my appointment. But they worked me in.

February 9, 2026Emir O.Verified patient
It’s hard to rate an appointment for a provider that I didn’t see. Honestly, the office staff were very friendly; however, I did wait for an over an hour of my original office appointment time to even be seen by a provider (which was someone else). I like the convenience that they are open on a Saturday, but otherwise it was OK.

The wait was long.... but it could've been catching up from the holidays. Dr. James was so nice and personable. Great bedside manner

September 29, 2025Ron C.Verified patient
Dr. James was very helpful and friendly. I usually don’t enjoy doctor visits, but he made me feel comfortable and at ease. I truly appreciate his care and look forward to my next visit.
September 26, 2025Mario W.Verified patient
Dr. James was so kind and seemed genuinely attentive. I think my husband and I have found our permanent primary care physician. We did wait in the office for a while but thats ok
September 11, 2025Cristal L.Verified patient
I came in on a Saturday to meet with Dr. James Joseph just to find out he was not there. I checked in by 11:15AM and had to leave at 1:30pm because I had not yet been seen by a doctor and had other plans for my Saturday. This is my first time choosing a primary for a medical issue and I was so disappointed to the point that it made me emotional. This center doesn’t respect their patients time, do not come here.
May 3, 2025Soraya R.Verified patient
The doctor is very thorough and understands your needs. He doesn’t take any shortcuts to speed the process. The entire office was friendly and caring for why you’re there. Absolutely would recommend this practice and doctor.

Thanks
February 13, 2025Sean O.Verified patient
About 3 years ago this office was great to visit, but now its terrible. Not only did I not see this doctor, but it took over 1h and half to see a doctor who didn't spoke unless I said anything. I prefer to taking the day off work (appointment was on Sat.) than having an experience like this again. Long wait time for something that before it took less than a hour to finish.
September 15, 2024Heisell F.Verified patient
I want it to be seen by Dr James but even though he was listed on ZocDoc he was on vacations and no one contacted me to let me know. The Dr that I was scheduled with took an hour to see me in the room, I came the room twice asking when I was going to be seen and I was told both times I was next. I had to stand at the door so everyone can see me and finally I was seen.
August 14, 2024Aida C.Verified patient
Using ZocDoc to book appointments is useless. The providers still make you redo all the paperwork. I will never use this app again.
August 3, 2024Michael S.Verified patient
It’s so refreshing to finally feel heard. If you’re looking for a collaborative healthcare journey, come here. If you want to be gaslit and forced to self diagnose, by all means, try another provider.
July 21, 2024Jack T.Verified patient
The Doctor listen to me and gave me answers about my concerns... He explained prescriptions and processes. I very happy with him most all he listen and didn't cut me off from talking about my ailments.Most doctors do...

August 11, 2022Charlotte J.Verified patient
Overall a great experience. It took a bit longer to be seen than I had hoped for, but I'm also a first time patient, so I understand if that may have been a factor. Other than that, Dr. James was wonderful and so was the rest of the staff. Looking forward to going back to see him soon.
August 3, 2022Jose M.Verified patient

June 25, 2022Ricardo P.Verified patient
I made an appointment and when I got there I was kept waiting for an hour, and when I mentioned it to an office worker she stated "it's still going to be awhile so you might want to reschedule"
June 2, 2022Charlotte J.Verified patient
Doctor James was nice, so was his assistant, however, the nurse who took took my vitals was extremely unprofessional, didn't even let me see my blood pressure, said she couldn't find my chart, used a BP cuff. Office was filthy. Receptionist was extremely rude over the phone. They sent my prescription to a pharmacy in NJ when I'm in FL.
IT TOOK 3 days and 7 phone calls to get the prescription over to the right pharmacy.
Neve going there again.
May 28, 2022Deborah G.Verified patient
Worst experience of my life. This place is full of lazy people foe front staff that don't know how to read zocdoc appt or treat people and made me feel so uncomfortable and unwelcome there
