Scheduling and phone access frustrate

Communication around appointments and getting help by phone can be inconsistent.

Some reviewers describe trouble confirming appointments or getting through to the right place, including visits that start with a delay or a provider change. Others say they cannot get assistance without an appointment, that the phone line is difficult to reach, or that even basic contact details cause confusion. A few reviews also mention that issues during a visit were not resolved, leaving patients feeling unsupported.

caveat 6 reviews mention this

Billing complaints create major sticker shock

A recurring concern is unexpected or mishandled billing.

Several reviews report large bills or charges they did not expect, including out-of-network concerns, delayed or incorrect account crediting, and additional facility fees for services. Others describe feeling billed for something despite not getting the outcomes they expected. A few reviewers also question whether costs were verified properly or whether billing follow-up handled their issue.

differentiator 3 reviews mention this

Mental health experiences are mixed

Mental health and behavioral health care draws sharply different reactions from families.

One review describes mental healthcare as exceptional, praising staff for understanding and providing proper handling during a crisis. Other reviews are far more critical, including a report of an emergency behavioral health stay that ended with the person being sent home and later facing safety concerns. Another review criticizes how a psychiatric crisis for a minor was handled, including concerns about supervision and discharge planning.
