Seen promptly by physician, received chest x ray and rx. for cough medicine …. Dr Lee was very thorough and said he would contact me when resuts came in….. which he did early the following morning. I am very pleased with the care and follow-up received !

He was very good and quickly put me at ease. The only reason I didn't give him 5 stars was that he was a little too quick with the diagnosis. He explained it well and I understood what is going on and I agree with the diagnosis. It would have been a little better if he took a little more time letting me express my concerns and examining my issue.

Direct and made sure my questions were answered. That was good. Bedside manner was that of an unfriendly rock which is not what one hopes in urgent care. “Care” implies some warmth or kindness and as scared as I was about falling on my head, at my age, and with my medical history. Well, a little could go a long way. BUT he was a good MD and made clear sense and I left assured that I was ok.

For a emergency telahealth appointment the doctor was available within 20 minutes, very prompt. I was happy, he answered my questions. I was reaching out for consultation for a spider bite, and did not want a emergency room if it wasn't needed. After speaking with Doctor I felt better. After a that appointment the next day the area where I was bit started to get better.
