The Best 12 MEDICAL SERVICES near St. Petersburg, FL (Part 3)

Phyllis Harmon My husband and I both have Dr. Patel and have great faith and trust in him. He recently did a colonoscopy for me and everything went smooth as always. I would recommend him to anyone needing an excellent doctor.

Dale Haagenstad I love this doctor but it is almost impossible to call the office during business hours. Recording says call during business hours when you are actually calling during business hours. Answer your phones and you get 5 stars

Whitney Evans Dr. Levoy and Dr. Franco are hands down the best in the city, their staff deserves a resounding round of applause (and so much more). Even the visiting staff that I had the extreme pleasure of being attended to by today. Clean, sanitized, intelligent, professional, helpful, fun, funny, good humored. I simply cannot say enough good things about this establishment. We were recommended by friends over a year ago and could not even begin to imagine going anywhere else! The most attentive and respectful professionals I’ve ever had the pleasure of being seen by. GO SEE THEM. End of story.

Christopher Bowman Dr Trimble and his assistant are great. They are caring and compassionate. They always made sure I was comfortable and they keep the atmosphere fun and relaxed. I just completed the radiofrequency ablation for my neck and I feel pain free already. A big THANK YOU to EVERYONE at the St Pete office.

Teri Shook I have been a patient of Dr. Trimble and staff for many years. You will not find a more caring doctor. PA , nurses or staff. Dr. Trimble doesn’t want anyone to have chronic pain. He and his kind staff will guide you to a life with much less pain.

Dwarrenee Hughes This hospital in the small community of Pinellas Park is a hidden gem. No big city overcrowded waiting rooms. No take a number an wait to be called in the ER. I am often wary of new medical environments and stick to places I know. This is conveniently located about 2 miles straight down from my home. I have never felt more comfortable in a hospital environment. The nurses, the techs and all the support staff are welcoming. They work really well together. The place feels familial. I had a health incident after surgery and the response was so on point. Fast, specific and at the same time nurturing. I felt SAFE. I am incredibly grateful to the 3rd floor staff for my care and recovery.

Bob Trumble The entire staff provided excellent service and care. My surgeon, Dr Cohen, did did a great job. The hospital seemed a bit aged and worn, but fully functional. I did my pre-admission interview in the lobby, and the surgical cubicles were squeezed along a narrow hall with barely enough room for stretchers or equipment to pass. All functional but not up to the bar set by St Anthony.

Diana Ruffer Dr. Rao has been my primary care doctor for 20+ years and I am very pleased with both her and her entire staff. Everyone is friendly and attentive; she personally sees me on every visit (not a PA) and shows genuine interest in my health issues and recovery. Her bedside manner (along with that of the nurses and aids) is excellent and she takes the necessary time and steps to ensure I understand her care plans. She has helped me through numerous serious health issues, and I am still alive to this day (nearly 88) due to her dedication and support. A big Thank You to everyone in her office!

Keith Worden I dont normally write reviews however this will be an exception. Dr. Rao has been an extremely thoughtful and caring professional. I am impressed with how she takes the time to listen to my concerns. She is helping me live a healthy and happy life.

Diana Harris It was awful. Nobody seemed to care. It was all about getting me out of there. The attending nurse seemed uncaring. I was brought to the lobby and when I needed assistance I was instructed to wave my arms. I could have done jumping Jacks and still no response. I wasnt sure if I released or not. Very poor patient care. I will find another hospital. Thanks for nothing but a large bill.

Michele Johnson I arrived at Saint Petersburg, General Hospital ER the day after hurricane Milton with respiratory and G.I. symptoms. Palms Pasadena was closed and several their employees were working at Saint Pete General. They had triage set up so that the doctor could speak with patients about have minor complaints and needed to work up. I am a nurse for 44 years and retired. I was quite impressed. With the quick flow of patients in and out, considering all the urgent care centers were shut down thank you HCA for accommodating our population during a devastating time! Michele Johnson

Crystal Hampton I have been a patient of Dr. Patel for years. She then drops me as a patient out of the blue while needing a thyroid prescription refilled because I saw another Physician for weight-loss. I went to this other office for that because she made me feel horrible when I enquired with her about it. She stated that office is also primary care so she will no longer see me since I went there. She literally left me hanging after lab work with no thyroid prescription refill. What kind of Physician does that? Apparently one that doesnt care about my health. Ill gladly switch. Good riddance!

P. Short My entire adult family has been going to Dr Patel for over 20 years. She has taken exceptionally good care of us and we are all very confident in her approach to medical care. She is thoughtful, explores all angles, explains your situation and gives multiple options for treatment, allows the patient to be involved. Dr Patel takes her time to answer all questions, never rushing through. She even helps you with your insurance company, trying to make sure she is not going to break your bank to get proper care. She is also the only doctor I know that will actually call your insurance company and fight for you. In a pinch I like NP Pauline, and other family members see NP Debra Jackson,, but Dr Patel is who I ask for every time.

Chris Branscum Went in today for a slip and fall at work had to listen to all of the nurses on duty talking about their most morbid cases and which doctors house they were going to party at . I understand we are supposed to have fun but some discussions about sensitive cases. Its easy yall close the door easy fix. And I never usually write reviews on anything but I also overheard the staff talking about leaving themselves good google reviews. Im sorry but if you want good google reviews then maybe you should try doing things the right way and people will leave you good reviews so if you happen to be in an ambulance they will take you anywhere so if they give you a choice avoid Northside emergency if you can.

Jeff Rockwood I arrived via ambulance around 8 pm on a Saturday. I stayed in the ER until about 6:30 pm on Sunday. I did not know my diagnosis and needed to connect the dots of where I was heading. I asked to see someone in charge so they can explain my condition. Christian, the charge nurse came over and spoke to me. He was very informative. I had on an Eagles shirt, and I mentioned that I wanted to watch the Superbowl. Christian promised me that I would be able to do that. Well, just before kickoff, I was moved to a room in 2 West and was able to watch the game. Shoutout to Christian!! Go Eagles!!

Deborah Vanlandingham I am a new patient at Baycare Family Care on 38th ave St Pete. I just saw Dr David Nguyen. The staff was kind, the office was clean, the wait time was less then 5 min to be seen DR Nguyen is very kind and thorough. I never felt rush he listened and address all my concerns. I highly recommend this office

Maggie Ransom Love Dr. Pudur!! She really takes time to listen to her patients and has a excellent bedside manner. She is also very encouraging when it comes to your health goals, cheering you on along way!

Alli G I am not one to leave reviews or even bad ones at that, but I am so tired of piss poor healthcare. I had an ultrasound schedule in October through Hurricane Milton, I called to see if they were still open the day before the storm but no one answered and I found out when I drove down they had closed. No biggie, I get it, it’s the day before a hurricane but you could have called. I call to reschedule my ultrasound the day after the storm, they cannot get me in for 1 month . I reschedule, take off work, my fiancé takes off work, we arrive for our 8:30 appointment at 8:15 to find out an employee named Jessica had canceled my appointment. No one can tell me why, no comments in the note box as to why the appointment was canceled. It’s now 9:00 they had the ultrasound technician come out to talk to me. As the receptionist tells me someone called you and left a voicemail to reschedule. I said I spoke with someone and they asked if I could come in at a different day, I said I am schedule to scrub into surgery at work all week I can’t reschedule, I requested this time off. She replied “ no worries, we will move someone else” have a nice day. The ultrasound technician offers me to wait around for the day to see if someone cancels and she can work me in as I am scheduled to be at work at 10:30. As I was sitting there 3 other women had already approached the window annoyed asking if they are running behind.The ultrasound tech was put to talk to me when she should be doing other women’s ultrasound. I found that to be silly, she seemed way overworked. Then she offered to schedule my appointment again. I am already 36 weeks, it had taken me 2 months to get the appointment after showing up twice and appointment was canceled without my knowledge. I am so disappointed and upset. No one was apologetic or remorseful as if my time TWICE DID NOT MATTER. By the time they could schedule me for a third time, I would be pay my due date. So much for checking my baby’s heart to make sure it’s okay. I work in healthcare. I am a X-ray tech, nurse and a office manager. This practice is run so piss poor they should be ashamed. Needless to say I walked out declining a 3rd appointment. What is the point so they can waste my time again..

Deborah Miller Unprofessional. Unpleasant. No empathy. No patients=No job/No income/No money. Patients are customers. Some of these "ladies" need a customer service course!

Bob Moody Baycare was right to part ways with this Dr. I saw him today at the VA at Bay Pines as my new Primary. Wondered why he would leave Baycare and go with the VA. I read his previous reviews after my 4 minute visit after 50 minutes waiting. All the bad reviews described him to a the T. Smug and very dismissive. Was not just me. Will not go back. Too bad the VA did not do a better job vetting this guy.

Daniel Walsh Just got an email that he is leaving 03/03/24!. Dr. Parish is by far the worst doctor you can ever imagine. He has zero bedside manner, and is very condescending. He seems to be on the spectrum or totally detached like a dead-eyed soulless robot.Thank God hes leaving. Ill find a real doctor now. Just because you can make it through medical school doesnt mean you should be a doctor. There should be some kind of a process in place to keep clowns like this out of the profession.

Bryor Mosley Had an okay experience with the PA when I was here. However, the place was a wreck. All my labs were ordered incorrectly, and when I called twice to follow up, I was hung up on and then transferred to a random voicemail without speaking to anyone. I was trying to set up a new PCP but I will be going elsewhere now.

katrina headley Absolutely horrible office I would not refer them to my worst enemy. They sent my blood work to the wrong provider that my insurance does not take back in April and I have been contacting them since them to advise them of their error. They have not fixed it yet and making excuses and not returning calls Ashley Carlene and Sharicka has all displayed less than poor customer service skill I have even sent messages to Dr G which have gone unanswered. I was just reading other reviews and I am not the only one having bill issues from this office.
