Turn over seems to be high. There is always a new face. However my Hematologist and the Q
Dr. Idowu is always patient, shows extreme care and she is very knowledgeable of my health and informs me what to do to stay healthy. The staff was very patient and caring. Will continue to drive 3 hours for my appointment.
Once I arrive at the clinic, the receptionist is very friendly, very nice, and takes the time to let us know how long everything is going to be, make sure we sign the proper documents and explain to us what we're signing and why, and let us know how long our wait is going to be, which normally is within 15 minutes. And from there, the next person, everyone is just so welcoming and so warm. And they make my son, this is [...] representing her son, and he is so welcoming because he has Asperger's disorder and he doesn't attach to people very well. And they make him very welcome and warm. And I like that about the Sickle Cell Clinic, from Miss Jackie to the doctor, they listen to us, they answer our questions, or they find out the answer for me. And that I appreciate.
Dr. Idowu has really been one of a kind. I've been looking for a hematologist that cares about their patients and it's super noticeable in the way she treats her patients and cares about them. I'm so glad I was recommended to her!
I understand everywhere is short staffed. As patients if we get there later than 15 minutes after our appointment time scheduled, we have to reschedule our appointments. What is the process when waiting almost 2 hours on the Doctor after my scheduled appointment? My time is valuable just as well, and I'm very considerate of the next person. I had a appointment for my youngest daughter at 1:30 and she has Autism. Time is extremely important! This is every time I don't see Dr. Idowu on time. Last time it was over a hour wait, after my appointment time. I already feel invisible as a person of Color with Sicklecells, this makes it worse. If you don't want to see me just let me know. After my last experience, I all together don't even want to come to any hospital anymore. Now, I don't want to keep my appointments anymore. The only people this will affect will be my spouse, children, loved ones, friends, and myself. The business bottom line is the dollar.
Awesome experience as usual. Been coming here for many years now. And I will not stop. Even after moving out of state I still fly into Texas just to see Dr Idowu and her team
I was forced to be the last patient seem and has to wait for 1 hour and 30 minutes just for the medical provider to come and see me for exactly 3 minutes. She didn't even refill my ibuprofen 800 mg or my pain medicine. She complained about a provider that retired and what he wrote for me. Trying to get pain medicine from that lady is impossible she would rather I die than to help me with pain medicine. All she cared about was Dr Foote writing me a prescription back in January. It's March I asked her for a refill and she couldn't do that. I would never recommend her to anyone. Not even the devil himself. She is a doctor for the money. Not for the help.
I had a good visit, a good talk, everything was great. And I recommend it to everyone. Thank you, have a great night. Bye bye.
I had a very good visit with my doctor yesterday. My doctor always listen to what I have to say and how I feel about things. Her staff members are so nice and sweet and understanding. They are the best. [...]
My dr. Has always been a great doctor. But when it comes to going here for hospital stay never again. But dr. Idowu is great
Very good medical service
I am extremely grateful for Dr. Idowu, the nurses, fellow, community worker and front desk. I felt seen as a sickle cell patient and that my care was extremely important to them. They were courteous and helpful. They were knowledgeable about my sickle cell type. I immediately told my loved ones that I liked my visit a lot. Thanks again.
I don't like being lied to and I don't like being given the run around.
Good Dr
The office, everyone I encountered was friendly and professional and gave me lots of information. During my second visit, both visits were great.
I felt I was heard. Everyone was professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. I am excited that I have found a group of medical professionals that truly understand sickle cell.
My appt. was for 8 am. I arrived at 7:30 am. I was requested to be there at 7:45 am. No one was able to check me in to see my provider. If I'm requested to be at my appt. 15 mins. beforehand, the expectation is to be checked in on time.
I felt well taken care of during this visit. I felt supported regarding my specific needs. Dr. Idowu stated my plan of care regarding my diagnoses and included my concerns within our plan. I appreciated have this specialist provide care for me. The staff, NP, and nurses were are supportive of my healthcare needs. The Nurse Practitioner, [...], listened closely was knowledgeable and addressed my concerns. All of my questions were answered.
Dr Idowu is the absolute best provider I have ever had. She listens and cares very deeply for her patients. I appreciate her so much!
I appreciate the ease of navigating the facility, from arrival to the moment you leave. The staff is courteous, helpful and efficient.
Everyone was professional and was helpful to my needs and concerns.
She is caring and patient and very concerned of my health. And ever since I've been going to her, I can tell she's the best sickle cell doctor I've ever had in my whole entire [...] years. And I will recommend her to anybody. Thank you.
