In patients' words

"If they don’t have a provider in the building, they won’t acknowledge you or let you wait inside... 1 star is for poor customer service/consideration."

— Patient review, Middletown location

"This may be the worst clinic in America. Be prepared to wait over 3 hours just to be seen by a C tier clinician while the nursing crew spends their time ordering lunch while you suffer."

— Patient review, General/Providence location

"Patients praise attentive nurse practitioners, clear explanations, and professional front-desk and MA staff."
