I thought my doctor was very informative and professional took the time to listen and explain

I especially liked being able to make the appointment for urgent care online

I have only one complaint. I expressed concern that my chest and back were beginning to hurt with my congestion. Dr. Derrer used his stethoscope but didn't even compress the bell to my chest or back when I took a breath. I didn't really want to pay for an xray, but I felt like the physical exam could have been improved. My back and chest still hurt, but my congestion has improved some. I felt like my concern was not really addressed. Either way, I am improving, so it doesn't really matter.

I really like Dr David Derrer. He never rushes to get done and always explains things and also listens to the patient. I'm always happy to see him. I failed to mention that I need Albuterol Vials for a nebulizer phoned in. I have a few but will be out soon. They help. Thank you!

There was a mix up about the appointment we were suppose to have at 12:00 pm that day, so we were delayed in seeing the Doctor. However, I must say the receptionist investigated and explained the problem to us. Dr. Derrer was very through and listened to our questions. Upon his examination, he recommended a chest xray. After reading the xray a nodule was found and he recommended a CT scan which was done. Upon completion, Dr. Derrer reported that every thing was OK and it was several spots of pneumonia in the right lung. He explained the medication he was prescribing and advised to see the pulmonary Dr. for a follow up. Dr. Derrer was very attentive during this visit and showed great expertise. He was very through in his examination, which was greatly appreciated. Thanks again Dr. Derrer for the care you provided.

They did give me an antibiotic and a steroid to help my sinus infection. But I waited over an hour in the waiting room, and over two hours in an actual room. After the Dr came in and told me he was giving me 2 medications he said "give me one minute I'll be back with your paperwork." He never came back and over an hour later a nurse walked in and said "Are you waiting for something?" I was very appalled at the fact they forgot about me, I only had two screaming kids with me as well.

Waited in the back room for 40 min. I was told when brought into the room that the doctor would in soon. I had to go ask after 30 min and the nurse said he was assigned to me and it shouldn't be long (can't remember the exact wording). I went out 10 min later asking since it had been 40 min and she snapped at me saying they were really busy. No one should have to wait 40 min in the back room for a doctor.

However, I must say the receptionist investigated and explained the problem to us. Dr. Derrer was very through and listened to our questions. Upon his examination, he recommended a chest xray. After reading the xray a nodule was found and he recommended a CT scan which was done. Upon completion, Dr. Derrer reported that every thing was OK and it was several spots of pneumonia in the right lung. He explained the medication he was prescribing and advised to see the pulmonary Dr. for a follow up. Dr. Derrer was very attentive during this visit and showed great expertise.

I have only one complaint. I expressed concern that my chest and back were beginning to hurt with my congestion. Dr. Derrer used his stethoscope but didn't even compress the bell to my chest or back when I took a breath. I didn't really want to pay for an xray, but I felt like the physical exam could have been improved. My back and chest still hurt, but my congestion has improved some. I felt like my concern was not really addressed. Either way, I am improving, so it doesn't really matter.

The Acworth urgent care is the most well organized medical facility I have seen in years. Not only that but each person was KIND.
