I thought I was only getting my bloodwork done and not meeting with a provider, who was new to me. I was very pleasantly surprised by Dr. David D Shepard's kind, warm demeanor and friendly visit. He took the time and explained everything. He wasn't in a rush. Which I am thankful as I became very nervous when I arrived and that they told me, I was meeting with him. Overall very happy.

The experience checking in was great and the medial assistance were polite and friendly. The doctor was very friendly and made me feel very comfortable. The only issue that I have is my returning appointment was scheduled without asking me what day or time worked better for me. New to the area and I have to have someone drive by me until I get familiar with the city.

The care received from the provider was excellent. The clinician was great. He was detailed, he was explicit, he was succinct, and he was clear. Very disappointed with the wait. I waited too long to meet with the clinician. In fact, I was on my way out of the exam room to reschedule for another date when he walked in. Other than that, everything was great, but the wait time was disappointing.

This was a WellStar Facility and I was charged $911.13 of he $1284.00 charged and only had a consult with the Dr. which was $267.63. I feel cheated. They wanted to draw blood which would make this the 3rd time in 3 months, but needed me to come back for an extra draw of blood since one of the viles needed Insurance approval . . . to DRAW BLOOD into another vile. I asked if I could come back later and draw blood only once. They agreed. I'm very disappointed and really feel cheated having to pay $911.13 for very little work.
