“My experience at Physicians Premier was an improvement in every aspect of ER care I have ever experienced before. Every person from the front desk to the doctor were friendly, professional and efficient.
“I was in the exam room within 5 minutes of being in the building and was seen by the doctor within 15. The whole visit, which entailed an IV, blood work, CAT scan, and diagnosis, lasted about an hour and a half. Granted, I was lucky and arrived when there weren’t a lot of other patients, but the efficiency of the staff rivaled any other ER I have been to, so I believe my experience would have been nearly as good at a busy time.
“Other highlights are the cleanliness of the facility, the radiologist who explained everything in detail about what to expect about the scan and the fact that they accepted my VA insurance. I honestly have nothing negative to report about this place and the people who work there.”
