The primary care physicians are fantastic -when you can get an appointment. Being able to see someone at express care is sometimes adequate but not always. It is frustrating to know that I can't see my PCP when I would like to. Having a several month wait time for an appointment with my PCP Is far from ideal. I am giving some consideration to moving to a concierge practice at some point.

While Amy did appear to be very attentive and concerned when I told her of my current issues and upcoming appts I was still left feeling a little uneasy because she never touched/examined me I.e., listen to my heart or lungs, or took a look at my throat or ears, just to get a look for herself. That is why I say the treatment was only fair.
