Communication is often fast
Many residents and families describe quick, responsive communication during treatment.
A recurring theme in the reviews is how quickly the clinic responds—especially through calls and the patient portal. Multiple reviewers say messages are returned the same day or that they are reached promptly with updates and instructions. A few reviews take the opposite view, describing delays, unanswered calls, or difficulty getting timely follow-up, including confusion around portal notifications and scheduling requests.

Caring bedside manner stands out
Residents and families frequently praise the team’s kindness and bedside manner.
Many reviews emphasize that doctors, nurses, and staff are supportive and show empathy through an emotionally challenging process. Several reviewers describe feeling listened to and treated with patience, including having their questions answered thoroughly. A smaller set of reviews says the experience felt dismissive, short-staffed, or focused on administrative work rather than patient needs.

Doctors feel involved in care
Reviewers often say their doctors stayed actively involved rather than treating them like a file.
Several reviewers specifically highlight that they are seen by doctors as part of their care and that the team reviews their situation in detail. Some describe clinicians being direct but also compassionate, with follow-ups that help them understand the next steps. Others contrast that with complaints about missed context or poor communication about treatment details and instructions, especially when follow-up after results didn’t happen as expected.

Portal and scheduling can frustrate
Some reviewers report problems with scheduling, portal messaging, or inconsistent medical instructions.
While many reviews speak positively about responsiveness, a few describe operational friction that affects communication and planning. Complaints include an unintuitive portal experience, delayed notifications for messages, and difficulty scheduling appointments. There are also reviews that mention inconsistent or incorrect instructions, plus situations where med changes or follow-up didn’t arrive when expected.

Short staffing and dismissiveness
A minority of reviews describe short staffing and dismissive interactions.
Some reviewers describe being turned away from scheduled care, not having ultrasound appointments properly set, or feeling misled about treatment dates. A few also characterize staff interactions as impatient or dismissive after patients raised concerns. These comments stand in contrast to the more common praise for kindness and attentiveness in other reviews.
