Another truly amazing visit at Care First Walk-In Clinic. I was able to make an appointment and get seen by Kaela Thurman NP without waiting months. I assigned her as my PCP and I feel confident that I am getting the BEST care available! She listens to my concerns and comes up with a treatment plan while including me in the discussion. Can’t thank her and Care First enough for helping to keep me healthy and strong! If you need a primary care provider that will really listen and get you on a path to wellness, look no further than Care First!

I have went to Care First for nearly 10 years and have always thought they have had great providers and staff. I went in today after suffering for days with a cold that blew up into a sinus infection. I was seen by Kristen Alpert, a provider that I had not previously seen at this location. One thing I thought was strange is that she thought she saw scar tissue when looking in my ears. Now I am 40 years old and can say that no provider in my life has ever said such a thing. She did eventually concede she saw fluid in my ears but was overall dismissive of this. She offered to call in prescription strength cough medicine. I indicated I thought that was a low treatment plan: I'd been getting progressively worse and worse. She then told me she "didn't really care" if I followed the treatment plan. So I immediately walked out after that. I do not think it should ever be acceptable to say that to a patient. I'm already sick as hell, why be mean to me??? Interesting was she followed me down the hall and said "Well I think you misunderstood me." Nah. I might have fluid in my ears but I understood perfectly well what was said. Learn some bedside manners and demonstrate empathy. As the name of the business states, Care First before all else. I have contacted Blue Cross Blue Shield and reported this and instructed them not to make payment for these services. CF already tried to send over this visit to the insurance 😆 Care First had some guts to try and send a bill for that so quickly. Sorry, now y'all have been put on notice to the insurance as you should be. Shame on that provider.

I’m extremely disappointed with my experience here. I made an appointment, completed all paperwork on time, and arrived early- despite having to drive 25 minutes with two toddlers while feeling sick myself after being ill for nearly three weeks. After waiting about 10 minutes past my appointment time to be taken back, I was placed in an exam room, had my vitals taken, and then was left waiting another 45 minutes with no provider, no updates, and no acknowledgment of the delay. At that point, my toddlers were hungry, upset, and melting down, and I had no choice but to leave without being seen. I understand delays happen, but waiting nearly an hour after being put in a room- especially with no communication- is unacceptable. If your office is running that far behind, patients deserve transparency and the option to reschedule rather than being left sitting indefinitely.
