List 20 Doctor of Medicine (MD) near Merced, CA (part 2)

Christine Asher The physical therapists here are amazing! I am avoiding neck disk replacement like the plague and have opted for alterative treatments to help. The staff is always kind and caring. From the two schedulers in the front on. Appreciate the care I received here while in physical therapy. Christy is phenomenal.

Regina Rhoan The pulmonary rehab therapist, Henry and his staff are so amazing!! We are learning so much and they treat my husband with care and professionalism I would recommend them to those who are suffering with chronic lung disease.

Annalisa Salcido Probably one of the most inconvenient places to go get help from. I spent four hours in the emergency room so they can help me with excruciating pain. They were not able to give me painkillers Until the fourth hour. As well as the medicine that they gave me did not help

Alex Theman They are hella rude for no reason , im in pain and just wanted to ask a question and oh my goodness these ladies are hella rude and careless . Wth guys people are hurting and in pain and just wanted to ask if i can get help but nah they choose to not care and not help what so ever .

Kinleigh Gatlin I came in by ambulance Mercy Medical Center due to severe back pain and total numbness from the waist down. The doctor did not examine me, did not even touch me. I was taken for X-rays and given Tylenol by the nurse. That was the extent of my treatment. I asked to use the restroom twice because I was waiting for 7hrs. I was unable to walk and stand so the nurse had to take me to the restroom. She could visably see I was struggling and I told her I had the urge to use the restroom but was physically unable to due to the total lower body numbness. This was a new symptom with my back pain I had never experienced before. Upon returning from the restroom the second time the nurse left me in a wheelchair in the doorway of another patients room stating the doctor was discharging me although he never even saw me. The doctor Soliman Atai came to speak with me and my husband telling me I was going home and my X-rays were fine. I explained to him I had no ability to walk and he said “I can get you some crutches or whatever. You will be fine and pain free in the morning. Tomorrow you will be doing jumping jacks”. I began crying and he then said “I can do an MRI but it will be only for you to ease your mind and will not change my discharge instructions whatever the result is”. I felt so uncomfortable with whatever this doctor called “care” and was discharged. I went to Emanuel Medical Center after leaving Mercy due to bladder rentention/unable to urinate as the nurse as Mercy knew but did not care or even seem to think worrisome. Once arriving at Emanuel I was diagnosed with severe spinal stenosis, saddle anesthesia, cauda equina & transferred to Doctors Medical Center for an emergency microdiscectomy on the L4 & L5. Does that sound like doing jumping jacks doctor? He put my life in danger by not even examining or treating me. I visually saw the doctor for two minutes of a 7 hour ER visit. I may never be able to fully walk again or have proper urinary or bowel functions without medical intervention due to the 7hrs I wasted waiting for medical treatment of cauda equina and saddle anesthesia. What an absolute joke this hospital is allowed to “treat” patients this way. My life will never be the same due to this horrible visit.

Matt D Im suffering from a osteomyelitis wound that started off as a pressure ulcer that was diagnosed by this doctor. Im at risk of losing my bone and or dying. Initially it started off as a small pressure ulcer in may 2022 that barkshay treated with just permithean cream. It was not healing despite him witnessing that it was growing and gaining necrosis. I stopped eatingamd was losing weight and had cold sweats that haunt me today. They just scraped the necrosis and sent me home. Months later October 2022 i had severe chills and looked like a skeleton. The last visit with him and his rude nurse(who kept complaining that I wasn’t giving her eye contact when i was literally sick and losing focus) needed to refer to my primary doctor who told them to send me to the hospital for antibiotics. Even then the call didnt come thru for me to get me into a chair. I remember one day i was losing consciousness on my living room floor and my mom dragged me to the hospital ER and they found cellulitis at the wound site and iwas septic. They kept me in the hospital for a week under antibiotics. The nurses and surgeon stated that I should have been treated much sooner They however left me with a big hole that has yet to heal. Nothing has worked to heal this wound and now i have sever chromic osteomyelitis that i have to go to stanford in January for. I am afraid. Im not sure how this is going to turn out but I should have gone to a real doctor at stanford or ucsf for this type of wound at the beginning stages. Im in a wheelchair and have spina bifida (and not a doctor) but realize i needed better diagnosis than just a simple cream. Barkshay has a history of misdiagnosis from what I heard and his office at the time smelled horrific( like infection and death) and his patients are visibly sick or have severe infected wounds from what I remember. Also his nurses are unprofessional . Barkshay ruined me i just hope not permanently. I will eventually report him and his staff once i heal and go from there. If you are a patient and notice no improvement go to the emergency room dont risk it like i did. *picture is from Aug when it finally had necrosis*

Bill Eldridge Went to see Dr Bakhshay regarding a diabetic wound on my leg. Over a period of two weeks the staff nurse wrapped my leg every morning From the time I walked in I was greeted by an amazing lady who always had a smile on her face and a positive attitude. The doctor was easy going and very knowledgeable The staff nurse was always pleasant and friendly.

Albert Sanchez Went to this doctor 2 years ago for blood blisters on my toes 3 on my right 2 on my left. All were treated except my middle toe. Maybe cause blister was smaller. All other toes healed. Non-treated toe got infected they had me coming back on a regular basis but it wasnt getting better. My last time there the doctor comes in looks at my toe and says you need to go to the hospital. There was no way to save it. It was black and dead. It was amputated at Emanuel Hospital in Turlock. This doctor had a stroke years ago he shouldnt even be dealing with patients.

lyssanfro Went here for the first time for my dad this last week.. great staff great doctor . Definitely felt comfortable there

Steven Segerstrom Great doctor. Approachable. State of the art wound management. Excellent results.

Rob Beltz Dr. Carter knows his stuff and took good care of my medical needs. However, his bedside manner is devoid of any kind of human compassion. If you irritate him in the slightest, he has a tantrum and becomes verbally condescending. That makes it extremely difficult and uncomfortable for a patient when a doctor is supposed to treat his patients with dignity and respect. He does neither of those. Front office staff is WONDERFUL!!

David Hauff Hes a great doctor, diagnosed my thyroid cancer 25 yrs ago, went after it aggressively. Ive got nothing but the utmost respect for him. I can honestly recommend Donald Carter. I probably wouldnt be here today if it wasnt for his dedication to his profession and patients

c l a r i s s a It took a while to get an appointment, but I was able to be seen a bit early thankfully. I cannot exaggerate that he probably saved my life catching something that had been dismissed by every other professional I had seen the past 3 months. He is blunt but also took action immediately to get me taken care of.

Geet D Good doctor. Wait time is very long for him and doesnt go into detail explaining things. Felt he critizcied me more than he did what I went in for.

Kelly Williams Everyone at Dr. Carters office is very kind and very competent. I once had to come to an appointment there in a wheelchair and Dr. Carter was very accommodating to my needs.

Jess Montoya Excellent service! Staff was helpful on the phone when I initially called in with questions. They were friendly and efficient at the front desk when I arrived. The staff that took care of me in the back were friendly and provided excellent care. It was also $140 cheaper than they wanted to charge me at the urgent care down the street. Highly recommended!

Rainer Soehnen After a cat bite 4 days prior, my leg looked like it was infected. Waiting time was short. After PA inspected area he determined Tetanus shot and antibiotics were needed. Also ordered a blood test. After an antibiotic shot was cleared to leave. Great Ser vice.

Amy A Im sick to my stomach and i had two wait literally 2 hrs to not even be seen. I decided to walk out then they call me saying am I in the waiting room? . No I left due to your terrible service.. Im not waiting anymore I think Im wasted to much time there especially being sick. So unprofessional and terrible service. Then when I asked a question to the front desk she wanted to be rude about it .

Jeff Lawry Bernice is always very helpful and very friendly. I saw Dr. Chiu today. She was very thorough and caring.

Cheri Fogelberg I had a perfect experience at Fountain View Urgent Care last week. I only had a few minutes wait to get in to see the doctor. Dr. Michael Courtney was very professional, kind and caring. I was seen immediately. The facility was very clean and nice. The ladies at the front desk were also very nice.

Tom Cozzi I dont know what people expect from the staff. Ive been going there for years and I have not seen the problems that people are complaining about. People need to relax and give the employees credit for what they are doing and realize that there other patients patients being seen. Sometimes it takes them a little longer to finsh with some patients than others. I prefer that they take their time to make sure each person gets the proper care. So put away your stop watch and relax

Interested Party The staff at the Merced CBOC are great ! They care about their patients and work hard to ensure the care provided is good. They do really good in navigating the VA health care system and explaining the process. Thank you!

Mr HF Ive been going here since moving from Fresno in 2011. The staff is very friendly and understand that stress is normal especially with us Veterans. They try to answer all of our questions and are very understanding. I only had one issue with a primary care doctor in which I was offended by his comments, so I informed them and eventually I was given another provider. Great service and my new provider is great. I hope that someday they will expand this clinic. For the size of Merced County , this could be better if it were a regional facility that operated 24hrs, instead of either driving all the way to Fresno or north to Palo Alto. All in all, great facility, great staff and great respect.

Ashley Mcniel The blonde lady at the front desk is rude and seems like she hates her job. Our veterans deserve better than that. The nurse Tarah is amazing and always in great spirits, makes us feel comfortable, and generally takes good care of all her patients, which is why I gave 3 stars instead of 1.

Sherry Louise Field I love my Doctor there, let that be clear from the getgo. But, the office itself needs to be brought into the 21st century. They dont have a website, or a MyChart option for patients to see their visit summaries, schedule new appts, or email their doctors. They also dont have an advice nurse on staff. And if your pharmacy sends a renewal request for your meds? They go weeks without responding. YOU have to call and tell them that the renewal has been sent to their system.

Lauren Stokes My initial appointment was thorough and I was quite impressed. I had a follow up telehealth appointment scheduled to go over my blood draw results. I called the day of the appointment to check that the doctor would call. They office staff said they would call at the scheduled time. An hour went by past the appointment time, no call. I called them twice in that hour. Went to voicemail once then rang a few times and hung up the second time I called. My blood results did not look good and I really needed to hear from a medical professional. If I were you, I’d look for care elsewhere.

Mya Yarbrough This clinic has changed dramatically since Dr. Arbo left. One little girl in specific named "Gisella" however the heck you spell it, is RUDE and immature. She claims she told you one thing, but completely lies when she clearly messes up. After waiting for Dr. Johnson to call for my televisit appointment for 2 hours, I call back and guess who answers? Yup, the rude witch Gisella. She told me she stated it was an in person visit, which no she didnt. I have yet to miss a Dr appointment done in person. Also, they rescheduled on me, 2 different occasions LAST MINUTE!!! I am DONE with rude staff that think they are entitled! Save your time and go elsewhere!!!

Capt Auron The people here are very nice and they do take care of your health concerns, but my complaint is that many people can be schedule for the same time. Sometimes you can get up to 3 people. Average wait time can be up to 1.5 hours. I understand the need to schedule more than one patient in case of cancelation so I won’t hold that against them. My doctor has been patient and understanding with consistent follow ups and physicals to ensure I’m healthy. They don’t take walk ins but it’s easy to make appointments.

Mike F Positively arrogant and negligent. Front desk insisted we first schedule an appointment to establish care before they would listen to ailments. I told them fine but it is urgent they list reason for appointment. Put me on hold for 15 minutes then they hung up the call. Complained to my insurance provider who switched us over to another provider who could see us immediately since my wifes ailment is urgent. After some prior research, they dont even have a doctor on staff only a Nurse Practitioner. Go to Provident Primary Care if you are ok with tolerating their bad attitude and poor service.

Alejandro Mercado Specialists here can give two craps about medical patients. Dont even know why you would need to go here with concerns if their objective is to get you out the door as soon as possible.

Mocha Mercer Made my appointment and they prescribe me a prescription and then I tried to go get my medicine from Walgreens and then they needed a code and they still have me waiting I keep calling their transfer me and no one is answering pick another doctor to go to. This is a horrible place to go through.

Jm Hernandez Always attentive to my kiddo been going since she was 1..shes now 9..

Lina I want to thank the ladies at the front desk at the Womens center! They were very helpful and worked with a sense of urgency & sympathy. They couldnt help me with the appointment I had scheduled but they called around and found solutions for me. Ive never had an office do that for me. I drove all the way from Modesto & I was already in excruciating amount of pain but they turned my experience into a good one after all❤️

Emily Gomez The woman’s health center has to be one of the best compared to the one at Sandpiper location. The front desk ladies are always so warm and inviting and the nurses are sweet and friendly unlike the sandpiper location. They should really use this as a training facility so Sandpiper can learn how to treat patients.

Olivia Rodarte I hated every single experience I’ve had here. My Dr was Monique Sanchez. I’m pregnant with my first baby which my husband and I are extremely happy and excited about. However she was so rude and made me feel like she had no time for me and didn’t care about me or my child at all. I get it, it’s a job. But at least pretend to care about my baby’s well-being. Because that’s literally what the job is. I won’t ever be going back. All you’ll do is waste time sitting in the waiting room for an hour and a half only to be seen for 2 minutes.

Yamila Pena Ive had very bad experiences here and I had to mention I finally have finally found the best Dr. Professional and friendly. Dr Laurie Mata! Such a sweetheart.

Cathleen Hathaway Nice place. Why don’t the buildings have big signs on them. It took me 15 min to find where I needed to go.

Kiki B truth Very unprofessional lies about what time thy open and closeclose.as well as not being confident havingnvarioys employees handke one person and lie as well as manipulative is putting the patience information at risk as well information.they play games and nicky doesnt do her job professionally and neither do her coworkers.

Wilfred Milanez rude staff. Never going back.

Amanda De Matteo My son has been going here since he was born. The staff is always friendly and patient with him. He goes to Dr. Meyer and she’s always very good at explaining things in ways even he can understand. She’s a very kind and loving doctor. I have never had a problem with anything here. The only reason I’m not giving 5 starts is because there is a wait for appointments. Overall I’m very satisfied and wouldn’t take my son anywhere else.

Andrew Minor I was sent to the Pavilion on the side of the hospital for Sonogram by urgent care suspected appendicitis just to be sent home and told to call urgent care for results. Paid almost $200 hundred dollars for the results to tell me nothing only to end up going to a better hospital in Turlock within a couple hours. They didnt need a sonogram to tell that I had appendicitis. They had me diagnosed and in a room ready for surgery in a couple hours.

De’Anna Briggs I seen Dr. Moore here & he is an excellent OBGYN! He delivered my son via C-Section last year. I requested him again when I found out I’m pregnant this year but I was told he wasn’t accepting any new patients or patients with my insurance. Ok bummer…no problem, so I asked which doctor could see me at this hospital and I was told that Dr. Edwards was accepting new patients. I had my first appointment with Dr. Edwards and it went well. Then the receptionist booked my next appointment for my first ultrasound over a month later which I thought was odd. I asked for something sooner and was told there was nothing available until October 20th. Yesterday on October 4th I got a phone call from the receptionist stating that my current doctor…Dr.Edwards is taking a “personal leave and she may or may not be returning to work and that my next appointment is cancelled and no other OBGYNs are accepting new patients”….What??? This is the most unprofessional thing that’s ever happened to me! They dropped me as a patient for no reason and didn’t let me have my next appointment or find another OBGYN there for me. Now I’m looking elsewhere…very unprofessional

Maria M Ramirez The nurse with the last name Offhaus told my mom that if she didn’t have suicidal tendencies, she could not extend her disability for three more months. Apart from that, she said that it wasn’t her problem that my mom didn’t have insurance. I’m seventeen and my mom’s translator, and witnessing her distress during this appointment made my heartbreak into shards. My mother suffers from PTSD, Transverse Myelitis, Hyperthyroidism, Asthma, Neuralgia, and other chronic illnesses. I truly cannot believe the lack of sympathy on behalf of the nurse. Though I am seventeen, I know that temporary disability benefits are extracted from patient’s paychecks, which means that any benefit is NOT extracted from the paychecks of doctors, NPs, PAs, etc. Therefore, health professionals please don’t be cruel to your patients whenever they ask for disability benefits. They’re not YOUR benefits, they’re YOUR PATIENT’S benefits.

Stephanie Foster Do yourself a favor and pick a different medical group. I used their online scheduling option to schedule 2 appointments for my husband and myself. No problem until we got to the office. First their fax machine had been down for a week, so they didnt get any notifications from their online scheduling service; Then, she told me that the online program was only for Existing patients, even though there were several times through out the process when the system asked if you were a new or existing patient and I always selected "New". Finally, the doctor that we scheduled our appointments with didnt even work on the day we scheduled our appointment. She used to, several months ago, but doesnt anymore. If they cant run an online site, they probably can run an efficient office either. Oh, and I asked to speak to the office manager, the girl went in the back to get her and 5 minutes later, the manager had mysteriously "stepped out" of the office. These people obviously dont want your business.

Sonya Virk He’s such a horrible doctor. I went int the ER after 3-4 days of vomiting & diarrhea. He admitted me & completed an endoscopy. He informed me of having ulcers in my stomach & esophagus. He then informed me I’d be out from work for two weeks. I was released from the hospital the same day and went into his office the following week to complete my out of work paperwork. He then refused to fill anything out, claiming he never told me to take any time off from work. I had several witness there including the Mercy Hospital floor charge nurse that confirmed he stated that however, he still refused to fill out the paperwork work. I nearly lost my job because his lack of professionalism and memory issues. I went into my primary Physician who indicated not one of my hospital medical records indicate I had any ulcers at all.

Robert Palmer Doctor Uppal Saved my life in 2012 He found these things wrong with ME when NO one new what the problems was 1st. Leukocytosis, Leukocytosis is a condition that causes you to have too many white blood cells (WBC). Are part of your immune system and help fight infections and diseases. 2nd. Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease ( GERD), 3rd. I have Teeth problem Due to Side-effects of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease ( GERD)

Kris Ann Staff is lazy, rude. Dont like to fix their mistakes. Waited a month to fix prescription, they said they didnt receive anything from pharmacy, 12x faxed! Saw confirmation! Did it to 2 other people in Los Banos. Doctor is good. Long wait times.

Bob Edwards Never was a problem until this past year. Getting Rx refills is a head bummer as only gives 0 refills unless seen. Not one time in his office did he ever listen to by lungs and I have asthma etc and gave me Rx for infection. My pharmacist called him that his new Rx faxed to them was denied ( my Zoloft antidepressent) by his office (gurrr!) Pharmacist said his office was very rude but got it fixed after I had been out for a week! He is an old man and needs to retire!

Sharon Buchanan Wonderful efficient staff great dr Had endrocopy and colonoscopy and they were efficient and it went well thank you Dr uppal and staff!

Armendariz If its not medical records, the receptionist, security guard, staff as well as billing.... no one gives a damn and depending on who you are dealing with.... " they demonstrate the dont give a damn with a side of b.s. attitude." Billing - shes lazy and expects you to provide updated information and shes never pleasant and like to avoid you. Security guard likes to instigate and makes matters worse. Receptionist station... states "its not their job." Medical records lets just say its all who you are talking to to get some cooperation. The doctors depends on who you are working with have attitude. If there are issues involving your case and depends on who you are dealing with treat you less as a person... oh and the phones ring for 14 rings or more with an answer or without an answer.... yup! The list goes on....

C Nancy “Fancy Nancy” I have noticed great experiences with Merced county BHRS, the staff are amazing and work hard and go above and beyond to best help their clients, and the supervisors are amazing as well there are some things I would like to point out that could be better though, Communication could be better, especially when clients are checking in for appointments sometimes clients are waiting for a while and not being seen and they become agitated or frustrated because they have been waiting a while, it would be beneficial if clients were told by staff that their provider is busy or running late so clients are aware, I definitely understand that sometimes a crisis/emergency may come up, I strongly believe that staff could be more kind, respectful and considerate to clients I get that we all have bad days but I do believe that the they way mental health providers treat clients could be better. I look forward to the future when more mental health providers are hired thank you mental health for doing your very best to help the clients keep up the good work :) We all are a work in progress including the mental health providers, We can all do better together. :) nobody is perfect thats for sure mental health is amazing theres just a few things that could be worked on for Mental health providers to do more better theres always room for more improvements

Dao the Eternal Nameless Beyond Thought Meditation/awareness is not pointed at here it seems, most the mental illness/drug addiction, etc if not all comes from "Ego" or materialist/physycalist conditioning most of the world suffers from. The psychiatric medications dont help much instead look into various "non-duality" meditation pointers, psychdelics and evidence based therapy but please do your research. It is work and nobody is here to do your work but you. Recommend a book "Loving What Is" by Byron Katie but there are many pointers as there are grains of sands in the universe,

Qui Cali Another understaffed ineffective mental health clinic. Theyll meet the basic requirements of care to avoid legal liability. Youre getting the bare minimum, bottom of the barrel, compassionate-free mental health care. If you or your loved ones want a fighting chance of recovery, go literally anywhere else.

George Soverns Well managed environment. Check in thru seeing Doctors. Many people so be Grateful. Good Doctors always busy. If you dont do well tight spaces ...

Heather Price Horrible experience that begins at the front desk. The attitude at the front desk was the worst Ive ever encountered. Compassion and empathy can go a long way when dealing with patients who have a mental disability that includes anxiety. Giving attitude to the stressed parent doesnt help anyone.

Giovany Ramos Was seeing one of the Dr.s for about a year under the impression that they were treating my diagnosed symptoms. I knew something was off so I decided to get a second opinion. I then find out that, sure they were treating symptoms but not all of them. The dr forgot to mention that I was diagnosed with more then just one illness. Like who forgets that?!? Aside from that, the whole year I was seeing him, I kept mentioning that my medication didn’t seem to be working. He said that was all they could prescribe but my new doctor says that was false with my grade A insurance, I could’ve gotten anything stronger! More to the story! After one of my procedures, after being released. I was still under the anesthesia and the doctor had the nerve to leave the nurse with a message for me and didn’t tell my driver. I don’t remember ANY of that conversation. Please, if you care about your health. Do NOT come here. Needless to say. If you look at past reviews. They always say they are sorry and they’ll chat with you but no one has ever heard back from them after emailing them.

Mai Mychelle Lee They take hours just to see you for a brief second. Waste your time when you have other appointments. And they get mad when you missed your appointments. Like seriously, the services and nurses are good but god help me. No one have time to sit there all day just playing the waiting game.

Damon Hammond The front desk lady’s are super rude and miserable, they schedule way too many appointments and have 8 people sitting for hours with in 12 inches from eachother on every side. They had multiple people in wheelchairs in a 5 by 10ft room. There are a lot of old and severely handicap people here, and during covid it’s dangerous to keep so many people packed in together it could have terrible health risks for the handicap. I got up and walked out. This place is a joke. This is the first time I have ever reviewed a place. I just felt the need too. Doctors QUIT REFERRING YOUR PATIENTS TO THIS DISGUSTING PLACE.

Gaby Alvarado Terrible customer service. Ladies at the desk have a serious attitude problem. The overall dignity system is completely antiquated. I called to request an itemized statement. They needed to mail (yes mail) a form to be filled out and then mailed back. Nothing can be done by email. Requested form never arrived nor was there any reference of the request. Requested a 2nd time and nothing. Absolutely no solutions other than the automated answers they need to give. Most horrible health system I’ve ever been with. Wouldn’t return if you paid me

Trish Haerens I have severe chronic pain, and I used to be on MAP. So I had no choice but to go to this doctor, and they did the wrong test when they were drug testing me, so it came back negative. Then they kept saying that I was selling my medication, that I was lying, and that I was a drug addict. I didnt know anything about tests at the time, so I didnt know why the test was wrong. But the way these people treated me over it was enough that I could have sued them. Also, I went on vacation at one point to Michigan, and I needed my mental health medication filled early. I told them that I was going to be on a trip and that I would need my medication early, and before I could even tell them that I only wanted my mental health medication early, they said no, we will not fill your controlled substance early. But thats not even what I wanted.... And the way he said it really hurt me a lot, he was condescending, and rude. I dont remember that doctors name, but the other doctor was Dr helm. And she was the one that was accusing me of selling my medication and being on meth. Even though I have never once been on meth. Please do not go to this doctor at all costs.

nano nan9 God forbid you need a prescription and you call to do their job and remind them they messed up. You get a dial tone because they hung up. I called today to let them know the prescription was wrong and they need to contact the pharmacy. The people answering are rude and when I asked why are you being rude af she hung up. I called again and she hung up again. The lack of respect and empathy for people that are sick is just mind blowing. If you work in a health care department you will be dealing with sick people that can’t talk or hear and will probably need to repeat thing. Do better. You can’t make this stuff up they will cancel your appointment last minute and their explanation “ the doctor is not here till in two weeks” just save your self the trouble

M. G. This clinic is owned by Mercy Medical Hospital and they will charge you hospital prices. They will not let you use a copay, but they offer the same services as a traditional doctor’s office. I have pretty good medical coverage but I still had to pay $300+ for something so simple. They will charge you for something the doctor could have told you over the phone. Even the lab prices were ridiculously expensive when compared to other labs. Stay away and go somewhere else if you have the option. Everyone I know hates Mercy and will go out of town for medical treatment. Merced really needs another hospital or more doctor’s offices.

Mireya Rodriguez The receptionists do not smile at all. They are not the friendly type..they check you in and out efficiently so at least thats good. Of you have a appointment and your a timely person like me..Do not be surprised if you are called a whole hour after your Appointment then seen in the room 45 minutes later. My appointment was at 1:30 and at 3:15 I was called in..(I swear to you! This is not a exaggerated story) 45 minutes later waiting with 2 babies They were finally seen.. They have a lot of resident doctors ( learning doctors) There is not a problem with this until they dont know what to do so then you have to wait really long for the actual Doctor ( M.D.) to show up. They have 1 restroom in the waiting area its clean theres no changing table. They have the most ridiculous key holder for the restroom..A clipboard attached to the key !! Makes it almost impossible to open the restroom! The rooms are small but clean a bit dingy and dated. The nurses and nurse assistants are alot more friendly. Than the receptionists. There is wheel chair access and parking as well as wheel chair door button. Theyre lunch is 12-1 and hours are 8 a.m to 8pm M-F Saturdays 8a.m -1 and closed Sundays. Down fall is the wait and they make no appology. If your ever late be prepared to have your appointment rescheduled which is funny because they will have you wait almost close to two hours after your original appointment. You could do much better Family Care Clinic.

Eustace Ugwu The worst experience I had visiting a clinic in my whole life. The receptionist was so rude, always grouchy. She hides her identity and she lies always, she tells you one thing over the phone, getting there, she will deny it before you. She always shouts on patient because she is easily annoyed. She shouldnt work in a clinic because she reacts like a beast. She is unprofessional, not knowledgeable enough to do that work. Her window at the clinic is put upon "PAYMENT" , thats the lady am talking about. Please, for your happiness and good health care, dont visit here and the doctor seems to support her as well.

Kristina Rylands While I dont love my particular condition, I love going to Dr. Thomas. Her staff is super friendly. They play THE best music. And I always can count on getting in and out in a timely manner. Dr. Thomas listens and responds to my questions and addresses my concerns. Im glad we have a medical team like this in Merced!

Mezie M This is the worst clinic in Merced, CA based on my experience with the receptionist or the person that answers the call when you are calling in for an appointment or asking a question. She is very rude, in fact she lacks home training and the professionalism to work in such a place. She will tell you something over the phone, when you visit the clinic, she will deny about saying that. She is inhumane, and shouldnt work in a place like this that needs someone that is humble and caring. She also seems to be a racist. Please, I advice that people should not visit this clinic.

Joseph Galindo Terrible staff, everytime my mother in law has made her appointments and spoken with the dr the staff calls 1 to 2 hours later asking if she is coming to her appointment, also veronica gave incorrect directions that couldve lead her to sepsis during procedure. Complete incompitence from the staff

Adrian Vera Bad experience. Tried calling all day, but they don’t answer and their voicemail inbox is full. The building is very dated and falling apart. When I arrive they end up turning me away for not having the right tools to remove a cyst.

Ladd Kathleen (Kathy) Most staff wasnt very friendly. I wasnt looking for sympathy at all, but they werent sympathetic at all...not knowing a persons history or problems, I feel like I was treated like a number and not a human being. Some staff admitted to me they wouldnt come here for emergency services.

Team Ashke Discharging a patient at the er window is extremely unprofessional and unethical. It called a emergency checkin and also people have some shame. If you see a long as line of a patient is immediate assistance. One of the worst experiences. Was waiting for 30 min freaking checkin. Staff needs to taught and this hospital gonna get a lawsuit soon at this point for lack of patient care. The hospital needs to look at these reviews and respond with proper procedures. 1.8 rating should mean something for the only ER in Merced.

Sandy Vang It’s ridiculous the wait time. Instead of seeing patients who need to be seen and could be sent home after a few minutes of being seen they make that patient wait a whole dam day to be seen for 5 minutes. RIDICULOUS!!!! I don’t want to speak to another nurse I just want the Dr to hurry up, do his rounds so people aren’t waiting hours and hours wasting their day away sitting in a germ infested waiting room.

juan hernandez Absolutely horrible experience, went in for a sprained ankle, was never ONCE seen by a doctor. Before even being checked for the one thing I actually came there for, they made me do a pointless blood pressure test and then took me to someone who began asking me questions on whether I had ever tried to commit suicide?? and a plethora of other pointless questions. To my surprise, this was all done so they could charge me THOUSANDS of dollars in costs for these “extra services” that I had never asked for. After that I was given three x-rays of my ankle, told to wait and was then forgotten for nearly two full hours until a nurse came by and asked what I was waiting there for. I told her and then a doctor came back with a SEVEN THOUSAND dollar bill and a piece of paper telling me how to “care for a sprained ankle”, and was sent off. TLDR: I was charged $7,000 for 3 x-rays of my ankle and that was WITH insurance.

Mrs. Bueno 3 stars for the Night Shift doctors and Staff ONLY. 1 star rating for day shift Admissions and Triage nurses. The RN’s in Triage are so rude!!! If you are not having a heart attack, stroke, or homicide you are not considered an “emergency”. I’m here to say there are other illnesses in this world that constitute an emergency room visit. Illnesses you cannot see, illnesses that Merced maybe hasn’t heard of. It’s a shame. There’s one nurse in particular that thinks she’s tough and touches you to sit down when I asked if I can have a seat in the hallway because my neck needed wall support. She came outside put her hands on me and said “sit down, no, sit down you will not be going back there” she also took off my neck brace and threw it in the trash because I didn’t “need” it since I wasn’t there for a car accident, neck injury, etc…(Nurse Mercedes had given it to me for stability because I have neck issues that heighten during these flare ups). The RN was annoyed she gave it to me. Night shift I was met with so much compassion from the RN to the Doctor, Dr Bowes (sp?). To my surprise they took me back and kept me back there to treat me. He was such a blessing and listened to everything I had going on. I wish I got to RN’s name but she was so helpful and treated all her patients the same. Dr treated me the best he could until I was able to make it to SF. Morning Staff—I know you have tough patients but you should treat everyone as a decent human and not diagnose their condition rudely as anxiety when there’s so much more than anxiety. Learn about it and be humble! Front clerk: get an attitude check..you check people in there should be no reason for eye told, grunts, tones. I am a nice person, that had an emergency.

Javier Alvarado Stay away from this medical facility unprofessional at its finest. The secretaries are rude and very disrespectful. If you’re gonna go to this facility, be ready to wait three hours or more. Seems to me like they’re very unorganized. They need to have better people skills obviously they don’t since, the secretary is very rude. I went there for Work Comp case every time I went there. I had to wait three hours or more. There was a few times where I got up and left and I told the rude staff, I couldn’t wait any longer. this happened a few times where I walked out because of long weight times!. I recentlybecame aware of defamation of character, Since I made several complaints in the past. And refused to be seen there through my workers comp!the secretary, there told me that I was being denied medical care because of an issue in the past with me being uncooperative. And this is my first time of being aware of this accusation. This type of accusations could shut down a place like this because they are making up lies about people and that’s defamation of character. I recently contacted the manager have yet to hear from her. Do not go to this place they are very unorganized or unprofessional. The secretaries need to be trained in proper communicating skills to the public because there people skills are trash. And don’t forget if you make a complaint, they will turn it around on you and put a bad review on your profile. This place needs to be shut down as soon as possible.

Barbara Hill Dont go there. Its patients last. Hours say they are open til 6, but they stop taking patients at 4. A note on the website would be an easy fix. We have been going there for years mostly for the sake of convenience. We have seen mostly competant practitioners but front-line ppl are surly. I dont recall any attempted calls over the years being answered. Although no excuse for rudness the put-upon staff have to deal w the crap that comes w being owned by corporate America where $ is prioritized at the expense of valuing vital lower-level staff & patients. In contrast, the clinics on G Street & on Olive are better managed w happier staff. Its interesting to note that ppl who gave ☆☆☆☆☆ have written several fold more reviews than those giving 1☆. Why is this?

Salvino Amaya I had a follow up appointment with Workmen’s Comp. after I had surgery the staff there are rude;? Was verbally harassed by another patient;? They called the cops and I spoke with the officer. Everything was fine. Had to go to the ER and showed why I was in pain after my surgery. My medication was refilled,? A note to be off work and show the fracture on my shoulder bone where they shaved it due to my surgery, This place is terrible, If you read all the reviews, mostly every consumer says the same thing. I give this place zero stars; When I saw them in June, I had my x-ray and MRI done on my shoulder. They said nothing was wrong with it. I go to see the specialist and had multiple tears on my shoulder. Individuals are inexperienced and poor Customer Service skills.

Cesar Munoz Diana is extremely rude. Very unprofessional , the other lady on the phone was being very rude to customers on the phone when they called in. I just needed a drug test for pre employment and the Diana was acting like I was begging her for money. Don’t ever come.

Alfayo Michira Best place to get good quality care. Caring team; and it’s a one stop shop for sure… multiple services provided here; Urgent care, Primary care and Occupational medicine.

Elijah Douglas Extremely rude front desk lady. Dont go this place.

Cynthia Lynn Trust me, G-d awful in all ways possible.

Vesper Von Lichtenstein Couldnt even find the place because its not well marked from the street and Google and Waze both couldnt locate it. Also... no one answered the phone when we tried to call for better directions. Only here because of the MiLs Medi-Cal. Otherwise I would.never walk into what looks like a back alley clinic.
