The staff at the Urgent Care Well Star at Avalon was exceptional. Dr. Donchev was great and listened very carefully. And his assistant gave me the EKG. She was great. And when I went to have my ultrasound, my x-ray done, the x-ray technician was very, very detailed in what she was doing, so I felt really valued, heard, and seen at this particular location for WellSTAR.

I'm very pleased with the level of service that I received. And even after I went home and recovering from my, the illness or the situation, I got a call back to follow up with me to see how I was doing. They checked in with me, which I really appreciated. So that is a great level of service. I appreciate that.

The wait time seemed long based on having a reservation before arriving, but can't tell if the others in the waiting room were walk-ins or also had reservations or check-ins. The nurse did advise there would be a delay in seeing that doctor. So she tried to keep us informed on status. But the arrival to depart time was 3 hours.

Hi, the two items of feedback that I have are regarding the waiting area. It seems that cell phone use is encouraged in the waiting area, and when you're not feeling well, listening to someone argue with their insurance provider incessantly as if they own the waiting room and it's their own personal office is incredibly frustrating. And then the other thing that I would like to say is I found The giant tablet in an urgent care facility is the only means to check in when you didn't already have the app to be unsanitary, and I did not enjoy that process. Thank you.

Dr. Donchev is an exceptional doctor. His mannerism and genuine concern during our visits is what we all hope to find when we face any kind of urgent medical issue. He is a compassionate, and caring doctor. He is patient, understanding and thorough. I have never been to this location and experienced any kind of disappointment. The front desk staff and nurses are wonderful. I recommend Dr. Donchev and his staff at this office to any one seeking excellent medical attention. Big shout out to my care nurse Melanyse! She was the icing on the cake ?

I arrived early and was seen right away. The nurses and were very courteous and helpful. The Doctor took time to listen to my issue and ordered a CT scan that helped determine the problem and therefore the treatment. It was super nice that the scanning capability was available essentially immediately and was read right away as well. All-in-all I was impressed with the care I received. I truly believe the diagnosis was right and the recommended treatment was on target. It is 2 days later, and I am already feeling better, regaining strength, and resuming normal activities.
