The Best 18 MEDICAL SERVICES near San Antonio, TX (Part 2)

Michelle Hernandez I would highly recommend not to come here. They change doctors like you change underwear... They forgot my sons shots for 2 years and when he started school he had to get 6 shots plus they tried to blame but it was their fault do to changing doctors and losing their files that were paper. Its hard to find a new pedi if you are on medicaid and a child older than one... Please stay aware for your childs safety.. Also you wait for hours when you make an appointment and if you walk in forget it.... Im happy that their is google to protect other patients before they go...

wera deluna Dr carballo is a good dr but the call center omg they dont want to due there work 2 times I had an issue with the call center very unprofessional they need more training how to due there job they dont want to work call center needs more training and to answer the client questions thats why they are the call center to direct the calls to due appointment s they get paid to due there job !!!

S Gonzales Dr Leos is very thorough, professional and really cares about her patients. She takes the time to really know her patients to better treat them. The office is always friendly and easy to communicate with. I would recommend Dr Leos to anyone looking for a good “old school” doctor.

Leacy Helen Pryor Dr. Dina Goytia-Leos is awesome! My family loves her! She is super thorough, great at communications with family and other doctors, and so kind to my Dad. Her staff is wonderful! They all go above and beyond for patients and their loved ones.

Michelle Hernandez Dr Cajas is one of the best doctors I have meet. I wished all my children where delivered by him. I had a high risk pregnancy which caused me to have a fluke of blood clots in my lungs. People normally don’t survive that. I was 7 months along and he made sure that I made it to 38 weeks. He kept my anxiety low and answered all my questions. My delivery was amazing. I had to be put to sleep and I didn’t want blood if I needed it. After my C-Section I was able to go home in two days. No staples pulling or anything. My -Section didn’t hurt as bad as my last ones. Stop all pain medications in the hospital. I’m truly lucky for my son and I to be alive!! Now I go every year for my Pap smear and he always asks about my big bundle of joy. 9 years later.

Marcos Vargas Dr Cajas is an amazing doctor. He took his time with my fiancé answered all our questions. I wasn’t sure if it was going to be awkward having a male doctor for my fiancé, however he is very professional and calmed all our worries. The receptionist was very pleasant she greeted us upon signing in. The billing department answered all our questions and even took us to a private room to speak about our benefits.

Josephine De Leon Nice n clean

Rico Hernandez Great customer service very friendly and helpful

Chels Dr. Chen and his clinic are subpar at best, and that’s putting it politely. The clinic is very disorganized. The staff does not give appointment reminders and is very unsure of their insurance policies and coverage; be prepared to wait in the office at least an hour for your appointment, even if it’s not busy. There’s no sense of urgency and patient care for threatening issues such as: I had a UTI which I tested positive for on my first visit, the OBGYN office NEVER EVEN CALLED me to tell me I had this serious infection, I was not informed by them until until I came in for my second visit which was a month and a half later.. at that point my UTI had already escalated and had was treated by a local hospital ER. Dr. Chen tries to be funny, his lack of professionalism and tact made my husband and I feel VERY uncomfortable. As far as atmosphere, the office was NOT CLEAN. i.e. there were insects in the light fixtures, dirty tile floors, foul food odors, etc. The large tower skyscraper building is practically abandoned, outside from this particular clinic; the empty doctors suites of unused equipment makes the vibe eerie and gloom. Finally, the office is located downtown.. therefore, you have to PAY TO PARK by the hour, which is inconvenient as the office does not give you a heads up on the payment for parking for their patients, no vouchers for reimbursements are offered. In summary, This was not OBGYN my husband, and I have decided to go with for our baby, especially for the delivery..Not impressed and not returning after two visits of giving this clinic a try. Back on the hunt for a suitable OBGYN, which should feel easy after this bleak experience at Pea In The Pod.

helaina Condon-Heck If I could give ZERO stars, I would. HORRENDOUS, I mean HORRENDOUS experience. I am a patient person and I can stand to wait for the important things, but this is not about the wait time. This is about DOCTOR HENRY CHEN. Please, please, please do not go here. This doctor had the WORST behavior of a medical "professional" that I have ever seen. As a future nurse, I was BAFFLED and left in tears. The entire time this doctor degraded postpartum nurses on the phone because they asked to confirm a dosage. He called them the "Stupidest people on the planet" and proceeded to curse. EVERY OTHER WORD WAS A CURSE WORD. and youre about to give me a pap smear while Im PREGNANT!!!! Youre dealing with women at their most vulnerable time in their life and youre being so disrespectful it triggered my nausea. LITERALLY. Before he could even do the procedure, I said I was leaving, got dressed and walked out. I feel bad for the nurses who have to work with this JERK!!!! MOCKERY OF A GOOD DOCTOR. WHO GAVE YOU A LICENSE TO WORK AMONG PEOPLE. Utterly, utterly disgusting behavior. The nurses apologize PROFUSELY for his behavior, knowing that it was the reason for my leaving. They shredded my documents in front of me and I left crying because I was SHOCKED that a doctor could behave this way among new mothers. Whoever is writing these good reviews needs to reevaluate their definition of good medical care because really and truly, this was the worst experience of my life in a "medical" setting. DO BETTER OR LEAVE YOUR PRACTICE. YOU DO NOT DESERVE TO BE IN THIS POSITION MR.CHEN. You are unruly

Afkar Zaheer Unjust Accusations and Lack of Professionalism I am deeply disappointed and hurt by my recent experience at postpartum. After delivery, I was falsely accused of smacking my own baby—an accusation that is completely unfounded and untrue. Not only was this claim made without any evidence, but the staff also failed to conduct a proper investigation or listen to my side of the story. The lack of professionalism and empathy from the hospital staff was shocking. Instead of addressing the situation with care and diligence, they immediately jumped to conclusions, causing immense emotional distress. This kind of behavior is unacceptable, especially from a healthcare institution that is supposed to prioritize patient well-being and trust. I urge the hospital to review their protocols and ensure that such baseless accusations are not made in the future. No one should have to endure the humiliation and anxiety that comes with being falsely accused, especially in a place where they should feel safe and supported. Until significant changes are made, I cannot recommend this hospital to anyone. My trust in their ability to provide compassionate and fair care has been completely shattered. ---

Andraya Pass I had my first baby here, and as someone who struggles with a lot of anxiety, the staff made the experience so much easier and more comforting. I wish I could remember the name of the nurse who was there with me-she was absolutely fantastic. I didnt have much emotional support with me, but her kindness and presence, even just holding my hand when my boyfriend wasnt sure how to help, will forever be a memory I hold close to my heart. Thank you to all the amazing nurses and doctors who helped me have a safe and relaxing delivery. Im so grateful for everything you did for me and my baby

Ricardo Rivas Dr Baros is the best. He listens to his patients and does a detailed examination when you are in for a visit. I was able to see him, not a NP, today without very much hassle. He is my primary doctor as of today.

K Joel (us1415) I went to the practice for the first time today. The first impression was amazing since the staff greeted me properly and I was able to see the Dr. Larry as a new patient pretty quick. Dr. Larry is amazing. He took his time listening to me and gave me some good advise. I am looking forward to keeping Dr. Larry as my PCP for as long as I live in San Antonio.

Britt Davis worse doctor ever! This man knew nothing, about anything medical. If he doesnt know what your problem is, he doesnt test you to find out neither. If you are in constant pain like I am, for my condition he acts as if he cant do anything to help you. So if you have something serious, that you need special care I strong advise you not to see this doctor. In his words. "google it. You might be better off."

i gn Dr. Damien Poursani is a dedicated and concerned physician. He always made time to answer my health questions. I miss him very much.

Theresa Peery They told me to arrive at 7am for surgery. I have been sitting in the waiting room for 2 1/2 hours with no update from the nursing staff. There are multiple other people here waiting to see the same surgeon as me. So God only knows when I will actually be taken back. I get VERY anxious before surgery and just sitting here for hours is NOT helping. This is the most unprofessional, shit show of a hospital that I have ever been to. I have had several other surgeries and have NEVER experienced anything like this. I absolutely do NOT recommend Metropolitan Methodist Hospital. I’m furious right now.

deb donais Nurse Kelly was awesome! She called and we did the preop questions and she took great care of me on the day of my surgery. I have no complaints I was probably the best experience Ive had. Thanks the Nurse Kelly..

DESTINI GRADY The best hands down I seen them last year throughout my pregnancy my son wasn’t growing and his heart wasn’t beating right they were time I felt sad being admitted into the hospital constantly but they made sure they done everything possible to make sure me and my son was fine eventually I ended up having a emergency c section @ 31 weeks spent 89 days In nicu now a year later baby boy is glowing and growing I’m forever grateful for them & Mrs crittenden

Aaliyah Martinez Dr. Melvin is awesome! She listens to every concern you have & tries to find a solution. The front staff is always friendly. When I show up to my appointments I’m always seen within 10 mins of waiting.

ashley marie 0 STARS! My mom sees Dr. Reddy and she had to wear a heart monitor to track her heart palpitations. Next step was to mail in the heart monitor for the results and the clinic says they "lost the results" this was told when she came into the appt for the heart monitor results 1.they didnt even know what she was coming in for and 2.they make my mom come in for no reason. Please prep your charts the day before to see why patients are coming in and do not waste peoples time ! This clinic is UNBELIEVABLE AND UNACCEPTABLE. This is a HEART DOCTOR. Nothing is even done about my mom’s heart palpitations. They keep increasing her Blood pressure meds for no reason. of course her BP will be HIGH that day yall lost her RESULTS and wasted HER TIME.

Ruby Contreras Beyond grateful for the WONDERFUL care Dr. Wu and has team have provided for my grandmother. She has had two procedures so far and is waiting on one more. Both times the team was right on time and Raul explained everything to us thoroughly. He allowed me to be with grandmother so she wouldn’t be afraid and went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable. Thank you so much for the excellent care.

Sara McCumba I had a great experience! Daniel was very helpful. He did a great job starting my IV for contrast administration. I have small veins so sometimes the nurses have trouble finding my veins but he was able to get it on the first try! I was very happy. He explained everything that was going to be done and took great care of me!

Tootrue Start Center provides complacent care. The doctors are nice but incompetent and passive. They don’t stand up to insurance companies and they don’t fight for patients.

Antranett Boston ER nurse James. Thank you so much for being pleasantly exposed, dedicated, a human, and reassuring. You made my stay feel like I was at home in my bed. I see you love it, please!!! We need more realistic people not rusty insensitive robots. Love

Michael Garcia The staff was great but don’t expect much rest. The place is as noisy as an airport if you’re staying the night.

DB Kennedy UNETHICAL. Tells women they have to be married for 5+ years to be eligible for an IUD, and has denied women IUDs who want one based on this. This is absolutely not the case. Anyone who wants an IUD can get one. It doesnt matter how many partners you have or how long you have been in a relationship. This is unethical. His license should be revoked for discrimination against unmarried women and women who have multiple partners.

Alexis Amos Today I thought the tears cried would be from possibly hearing my babies heartbeat on my first sonogram but instead its tears from a failed second attempt of finding a good ob/gyn office in San Antonio, Texas. My appointment was at 10am, arrived at 940am, they didnt tell me nor were there signs saying they only accepted cash/checks so we had to walk down the street to an atm, and then I watched 3 people who got there after me go before me. After 1.5 hours I took a urine test and after another 45 minutes my vitals were taken and I was put in a room. By 1245pm the Dr still had not seen me and my bf was already an hour late for work so I got my money back and left. On top of that I had to pay $20 for parking since I was there for over 3 hours.. (only paid parking is available at this office) I was a new patient but was literally only there for a sonogram since they had all my info from another Dr I went to 2 weeks ago. I was recommended Dr. Chen by 2 close friends who are also registered nurses so I trusted their opinions, but after reading the reviews I see people either have a 5 star experience or a 1 star. Chloe the receptionist was helpful and kind but everyone else I met there lacks professionalism.

Nicole Morris My first visit was great. I arrived early and had minimal wait time to be taken into the back. The Dr. Was running behind due to the delivery of a baby, but the staff was very apologetic and gave me a choice to wait or reschedule, and I chose to wait. Once she arrived, the communication with Dr. Akonye was amazing, she listened to my concerns and we made a plan that works for me. I felt like a person that was heard and understood and not a number to meet a quota. I highly recommend making an appointment with her.

Lisa Bianchini Dr. Akonye herself was overall “fine” I suppose. Saw me for maybe 2 minutes. Didn’t do a breast exam or ask any overall health questions. Waited 2 hours in the waiting room. Since then, every 3 months it has been a nightmare to have my birth control prescription refilled. It is either never approved or I have to call and call to get it refilled when it’s supposedly automated. Never had such a problem with a reoccurring prescription before. Don’t go to this practice, not worth it.

Will Yumwall ace 1/23/2025 why are American and Texas flag at half mast? Why is there nowhere near enough parking and the wait time is ridiculously long. Ive been hereany times. Even something as simple as a follow up. Ive been waiting for an hour and a 1/2 and still havent been seen. Ive been told 3 over the last 45 min. They should be calling me back soon. These place is like the waiting area in Beetlejuice where the number is 117,678,009,659, to be called.

Lydia Gonzalez I’ve been wanting to write this review for a few months already. I’ve been here many times for sick visits and honestly, I always have wonderful service. I have to also share that my friend mentioned to me that she was very impressed with one of the young men there. She said his name was Jesus Aguillon. She stated that she had to get her blood drawn, but the nurse couldn’t get her. She has always been hard for the nurses to get her veins so they end up poking her in the hand. She said the nurse brought over this young man in wine colored scrubs to try and he got her in her arm on the first try!! She kept gushing about him. She also said he was very pleasant and had wonderful customer service. Thank you so much Jesus Aguillon for making my friend feel very comfortable and giving her wonderful service. I truly appreciate you. God bless you. UH, make sure to take care of this young man, it seems he’s one of the good ones.

Shayla KItchens It’s a pain to get in! Just trying to get my child another appointment to see his gi and it’s we will put you on the call list. My child doesn’t have time for no stupid call list. Definitely finding another place who will take my child’s health more serious.

Kimberly Phillips I love Dr Maheshwari she is so wonderful and attentive to my daughter care. She has explained everything so thoroughly. She really cares about her patients.

T. Darnice Houston My mother was seen there this past week. I learned this weekend that she was dropped on a gurney by three staff members as they were transferring here between gurneys. I also learned from my mother, who by the way is 73-freaking years old, that these three staff members laughed and joked about not being able to move her AND dropping here. Needless to say, once I make my phone calls tomorrow I pray those staff members are terminated, or my mother who now has severe lower back pain will have one hell of a lawyer who will be instructed by me to work to have EVERYONE terminated!

Norma Martinez Always grateful for the kind and attentive staff, nurses and doctors at star vascular. Thank you for taking great care of me.
