The Best 10 highly rated medical facilities near Sanford, FL (Page 3)

Miss WIC - Good luck trying to get to anyone through the phone lines. Long wait times or no answer at all. Oh and not sure why they schedule appointment times or time windows. All my phone appointments have been almost impossible to recieve my benefits for my son. Schedule for 10am they will call u once at 8am and not leave a message then u have to chase them down trying to call back and get to a representative..

Damien McCall Impossible to get through on the phone. I dont even know why they bother to publisher telephone number. You cant get anyone. Theres no operator. You cant connect to any actual human being. Its absolutely useless.

Julie Jarrell Just moved down here and had my wic office fax over my sons papers to only be told they never got them when they did. No one ever picks up the phone there’s two or three different numbers I have to try everyday in order to get ahold of someone and to no avail my son still has no wic in Florida and I’m tired of it.

Anthony Baker Does anyone even work there????? The phone rings and rings and nobody picks it up. Chalk another one up for the disgusting public Florida Health Care system that is a joke!!!!!! Update—-Over a week later and nobody still picks up the phone or it disconnects you. This place must be a joke.

Wyatt Fantastic. I came here for travel vaccinations and Grace was very helpful, kind, and professional. A huge help. Prices were also on-par or cheaper compared to other locations (e.g., CVS and Passport Health). Could not recommend more!

Peyton Russo I would not recommend him. He is clearly to stupid. He dissmisses everything. He clearly isnt a real Doctor and if he is one he deserves to have his license taken away. I had a broken hip and Im only 25 i now have a metal hip. However when I met him he told me to "just walk it off." Completely rude. Id love to see him in a wheel chair and have some karma. Anyone that gives his more than 2 stars are clearly lying.

Rita Sabatino Dr. Aujla is a highly experienced and insightful doctor. I first went to him a few years ago for tendinitis in my wrist and I received excellent care. More recently, I went to him about a month ago because of severe sciatic pain. At the time, I wasn’t ready to accept his advice, which was to take the conservative approach and avoid surgery for the time being. Over the last month, my MRI was evaluated by three neurosurgeons, who were all too happy to schedule me for surgery. I went back to Dr. Aujla a second time after seeing the neurosurgeons and he kindly and patiently explained to me, in a truly caring way, that he still believes surgery is not right for me now. Over the last week, my pain has diminished significantly. A neurosurgeon at UF Shands recently confirmed that my body is healing and I should take the conservative approach: exactly what Dr. Aujla said from the very beginning.

Heysha Garvey Exactly what I needed, was quoted $200-600 from other orthopedics for a simple 5 min evaluation. The doctor was kind, knowledgeable and straight to the point. The office staff are Gems!! So sweet with my wild child. He provided exceptional service without ripping you off! I would recommend to others and will also use his services again when needed

sarah martinez I was referred to him from a Co worker ( His wife works for this doctor) to get a second opinion on a meniscus tear. After the nurse took my vitals. I was actually very uncomfortable when he came into the room and said "So what are you doing with yourself besides gaining more weight? " I dont recommend this doctor to anyone. He does not do surgeries anymore anyway. Hes a very rude and nasty old man who really needs to retire! Yeah and dont forget the $300 bill you have to pay only for him to be so rude and nasty to his patients !

Gwen Cogswell The receptionists were the only good thing about our experience at this practice. The doctor and medical assistant were both very rude and short with me and my daughter at her visit. After my daughters 2 minute exam by the doctor, the medical assistant took the orginial wrapping that my daughter had worn for 5 days which was originally wrapped at a ball field (which u can imagine was pretty gross) out of the trash can and rewrapped her ankle with the same materials. It was very disgusting and needless to say we have a second opinion at a real orthopaedic facility and will NEVER go back or refer anyone to see this doctor.

Senada I went here for my prenatal care and now for my baby after giving birth and I will never switch. The front desk is always so nice and super professional. I dont get how they don’t have 5 starts by now especially with having Dr. Smith-Sutton there she was not only professional but made me feel like I was family. I am a first time mom and I was very nervous but she made my experience so enjoyable from my prenatal visits to my labor and than my check ups after delivering the baby! She is super compassionate and you can clearly tell that she loves what she is doing!!! Highly recommend this place!!!!

Lu Timmons In short, the psychiatrist they have there made me feel judged, belittled, and wanted to alter the meds I’ve been on for the past 8 years. Asked questions she should have been better informed, and I felt like she had pre-judgement of my mental health. I don’t recommend her. EVER.

kenna bedgood Jillan at True Health has been the utmost help. She does above and beyond for her employees and patients. She really shines positivity onto everyone she meets with her amazing personality. True health has been overall a very outstanding place to partner with!

Josh Vasquez We have been visiting this location for many years, but unfortunately, this is the first time we’ve felt so uncomfortable due to the poor customer service provided by Catalina, a particular staff member. There were no solutions or options offered, and my wife has felt extremely stressed during our last four visits. The unprofessionalism and personal attitude of this employee are concerning and need to be addressed. I’m sure she is capable of doing better without this attitude and her poor approach to customer service.

Jasmine Do not waste your time here. I’ve been her a couple times each time is beyond a disappointment. I almost wonder if these are real medical providers bc they are by far the most unknowledgeable staff. Literally they can barely read blood work, very disorganized, the nurse actually almost dropped my test swap and the other nurse laughed and said we are still figuring it out. Then she almost put it into the wrong container thank goodness the doctor caught her In time and once again they thought it was funny. It was not. The podiatrist is a joke and can’t do any sort of lab work or scrapings . The psychiatrist is even even bigger joke. He is literally about 100 years old and knows absolutely nothing about psychiatric. He only prescribes antidepressants nothing more. The place is dirty. Not clean at all. I would almost rather find a free clinic to go to than to ever step foot in this place again.

Laurel Omg! They are amazing! Jessica, Stacy, and Kathryn are phenomenal! I wish I would have found this office during my first 2 babies instead of my 3rd. They made me feel heard. They put me first and made sure I was involved in all decisions when giving birth. They also followed my birthing plan. I will be using them as my regular OBGYN for my yearly appointments, but if I ever decide to have more babies - they will be my first call. Im so happy with this team of doctors. 100 out of 10 on the recommendation front!

Scott Williams This is a nonprofit hospital that forced its patients into unneeded doctor appointments just to get refills. I literally have to do a visit every 3 months for my sleep meds and 6 months for my prostate meds. None of this is required by Florida law. My next appointment is by telephone where I get to say I am fine and just need my prostate meds and get to spend $100 or more for nothing. Even worse my meds run out before my appointment and they refused to offer a refill so I will go without. I only gave 3 stars because Dr Friend is awesome.

Eclectic Archaeopteryx Twenty-five and a half (25 1/2) weeks. Just a few days shy of 6 months. Thats how long AdventHealth Family Medicine is making me wait for my first appointment here as a new patient (with pretty good insurance). I still have more than 3 months left to wait. The whole AdventHealth system is a joke now. I need a colonoscopy (one of the "Overdue for" reminders on the AdventHealth patient portal), as Ive never had a screening and am in my 60s, and have symptoms that need to be checked out. Yeah, I KNOW Im overdue, I just havent had insurance until this year. Next to the "Overdue for colonoscopy" reminder on the AdventHealth portal is "Request Appointment." I submitted that form 4 months ago and never heard back. When I called, I was told that despite the fact that my super-duper new insurance does NOT require referrals, AdventHealths OWN policy is they wont schedule you to see any specialist without a referral! So the only way to get that referral for the much-needed colonoscopy screening is to see a PCP. Which is what this place is making me wait 6 months for (assuming they dont cancel on me like they apparently have so many others according to reviews here). IF I finally get to see a medical professional, who knows how many months after that Ill have to wait for an actual referral to get a colonoscopy, and then how many months after THAT if any kind of followup is needed. How or why is it even worth having insurance at this point, if its impossible to use it??! Guess Id better hope I dont have any fast-growing cancers or any other issues that require timely treatment. Just a side note: All you Americans who believe the conservative propaganda about how "awful" it is to have free Universal Health Care because in countries that have it, people sometimes have to wait (gasp) 1 or 2 months to see a doctor -- OMG WAKE UP. Id be delighted with a 2-month wait instead of the 6 months Im forced to wait here just for a basic initial appointment with a family practitioner in good ol USA.

Lori Bragg I think AdventHealth pulled a bait & switch scam on me this week. I made an appointment at the insistence of my doctor’s office to get a refill on some meds. When I got there, they handed me a form to sign that said the appointment was for a physical/preventive exam and if I talked about refills or anything not on the list I would be billed twice. When I questioned the nurse about this, they looked at the form like they’d never seen it before and ran to get another person to explain it to me. That person didn’t introduce herself or tell me her role in the office but said various things about it being an insurance requirement, that they would reject the claim otherwise and that she was trying to save me from a $500+ bill. She finally said she could change the appointment category from an annual physical to my original request for an office visit so I could discuss the refill. Oddly, the annual visit estimate was $382, the office visit estimate was $162. Why did they change the purpose of the visit? Why did they argue with me about what I could talk about with the doctor? How can they bill twice for one 10-minute conversation? The items on the list for a physical are so basic they could only apply to patient/customers with no history with the doctor or the office – basically: is the patient breathing and have they had all their shots?! I’ve researched the policy and the form online and can find no references about it being a requirement. I found one reference from a Minnesota insurance provider saying that the doctor’s office may switch the code and bill differently if they feel you went outside of the items on a physical. Which is not billing twice or changing the codes so you can bill a higher amount. I think AdventHealth wanted to bill the higher amount for a physical. I’m not sure if this is a corporate issue or a local office problem but there was no attempt to treat me as a “Whole Person” as their website claims, or to be the “Healing Hands and Servant Hearts” they also claim to be. To them, I was money in their coffers. Full stop. No questions allowed. Follow orders and we’ll get you out of here in 10-minutes and get as much $$$ as possible.

Sabrina Biery I have been having issues with this office for over a year. I attempted to get some of this resolved in the past couple weeks with an office manager, but even she stopped responding to my email. They’re completely disorganized, there’s no communication between the office staff and the doctors. No one calls you back and then when they do they leave very Cryptic messages without a name of who called or what you need to call back about. It’s extremely frustrating when I’m trying to get my health back in order that I don’t have a doctors office that supports communication. I’ve had everything from medication that sat in a cabinet for six months before they called me to lying about sending bloodwork and me having to scramble the morning of to get them to send it over. It’s sad because I absolutely love my doctor and she is amazing but the office has really made me start looking at a new primary care physician.

DarkValkyrie512 My mother was practically neglected while she was staying her. I found her wet in her bed and she said she had been like that for an hour. The nurse was rude to me and trying to pick a fight while we were in the ICU with my mother. Not to mention they kept pressuring her to do procedures she felt were unnecessary. Avoid at all costs. You and your families deserve better care.

Ron Gerard Receiving bills for treatment that told me nothing. $10k in bills to tell me nothing is wrong... And people wonder why no one gos to the doctor...smh.

John Wolf Best hospital in. Florida

Kimberley Ruman My experience was a very positive. The staff was very polite and helpful. I had to be referred to othropedic surgeon because unfortunately the Doctor is a non-surgical othropedic at Tri-County. Thank you for all your help. Kimberley Ruman

jay Payne See I read the reviews before I went and was hoping it wasn’t true surprise surprise don’t go here yes sir you did get it half right I told you my back also hurt you said nothing is wrong with your back you can not see it on a old X-ray machine y’all had since 1942 my back has a Bludge disc and it’s herniated only a MRI will show you this x ray will not show everything he told me I will need hip replacement in 4-5 years and good luck cause you have Medicaid. Gee thanks for the hope just know he will tell you nothing is wrong and you don’t need to go nowhere else but please do save your money for quality care you’ve been warned

Mike Lasa I personally have been there for two separate issues, one for my back and now one for my knee.i have had nothing g but great experiences with the staff and Dr. I wouldn’t have gone back had I had any of the issues from the other reviews. Maybe it was just a bad day for the reviewers.

Mari S This place needs better customer service. Someone who actually cares about patients who are in need of a new provider. Kelly has been rude every time I call shes quick to dismiss me and she doesnt even care to hear what I have to say. Shes quick to hang up on me. I just need a provider who is approved so my situation. Nothing more or less I dont need to be told that its only for newly hurt patients. Please hire someone who wont be rude to people who help pay there bills.

Megan Sanders I don’t usually leave reviews but this is the absolute worst place I have ever been to. The “orthopedic” (which he doesn’t even deserve the title) was so unhelpful, belittled me, and made me leave crying. He read my whole report from my MRI that was done, and saw my disk and still had no clue as what to say besides “tough it out.” Please don’t waste any time going here.
