Quan Le, Immediate care Bldg MCDH, Fort Bragg, CA


Rating: 1 out of 5.

Dr Le is puerile kid. He lacks all compassion and understanding of even the most basic standards of medical practice. I believe he is vindictive and will set out to hurt you by whatever means, Do not go to this doctor there are alternatives in Santa Rosa.

This review is in reference to a United Healthcare virtual visit on July 3, 2022. I'm a 49 year old male who has suffered through anxiety and sleep related issues. To give a little more background I'd previously spoken with 2 other doctors on June 30 and July 2, also through UHC virtual care. But unlike this experience, those two were 5 stars. I originally called because at the time I was going through severe withdrawal symptoms after having to abruptly stop a sleep/anxiety medicine. I had a scheduled appointment with a new primary care physician on July 8 but I had no idea what to expect from the new doctor, plus I needed some immediate relief from the withdrawal symptoms which were making it almost impossible for me to sleep. The first doctor, William Errico, DO was extremely helpful and prescribed a 30 day supply of .1 mg Clonidine to help me. He was friendly and I immediately felt comfortable with him. On July 2, I spoke with Karen Beers, NP. At this point I hadn't noticed much effect from the Clonidine and was looking to gather a little more input on things. She was very patient and helpful and gave me some good suggestions on natural remedies to help with my issue. The 5-HTP she recommended has worked very well for me. By late evening July 2/early July 3 I noticed the Clonidine was starting to have a positive effect. I was still apprehensive about what to expect from the new doctor and I felt that I could possibly gain some more insight from talking to a third doctor and possibly get a refill on the Clonidine since it was beginning to work for me. Plus I had no idea whether a new pcp would even prescribe it. My mistake was getting Lisa Primiani. From the beginning she projected a cold, unfeeling demeanor and I felt uncomfortable with her. The only good thing about the visit was there was no cost because it was fully covered under my insurance. But in this case I got what I paid for. She tended to use the word "unfortunate" a lot but the truly unfortunate thing was this visit. Well, where do I begin? I clearly stated my issue and my concerns and her first response was that I'd already had 3 previous visits with other doctors (it was only 2 - the first visit with Dr. Errico was accidentally disconnected before it had begun). In essence, this made me feel very uncomfortable. Like I'd already called several times already and why was I wasting her time? This isn't what she stated word for word, but it was clearly the impression that I got. To quote a phrase from my 13 year old daughter, it was a "cringe worthy" moment. It got worse from there. At this point I knew I was wasting my time, but I decided to approach the subject of giving me a Clonidine refill. I stated the reasons for this as I did earlier in this review. Her response was basically if I'd taken the whole bottle already then I had a serious problem. These weren't the exact words but they're nearly identical. My initial reaction was complete shock. I honestly don't have words for it. At the time, this comment kind of reminded me of an old lady with a serious case of dementia who will pretty much blurt out the worst possible thing. I was like, no way, she didn't really say that! Also, if I'd actually taken the whole 30 day supply of Clonidine in 3 days then chances are that I probably wouldn't have been having this conversation in the first place. Another truly cringe worthy moment. Unlike the previous 2 doctors, she offered me nothing. Well, actually she did. She offered me an excuse. She stated that her specialty was not "chronic" issues but rather short-term issues or something to that effect. Well, I'll make it a point the next time that I call a telehealth doctor to tell my body not to have a "chronic" issue but a short-term one instead. One word of advice for this doctor, actually 2 words, smile more. A little friendliness goes a long way. I'd love to see the world of telehealth become a kinder place as exemplified by my visits with the first 2 doctors. Every patient out there deserves nothing less.

Thanh T. Le, St. Petersburg, FL


Rating: 2 out of 5.

This doctor speciality is pain management. My primary care doctor no longer writes scripts for pain medicine, due to gov. Regulations. I was referred to Dr. Thanh at the Pain Relief Center, here in St. Petersburg Florida. Dr. Le, suggested a treatment for my chronic back pain. I postpone treatment until the first of the year, due to my work. Dr. Le assured me there would be "no problem" re filling my pain medication. The first time I needed a refill, within ten days after the pharmacy notified his office, the medication had not been refilled. The pharmacy called twice. I called the office four times in ten days, trying to find out why the script had not been filled. All I got were recorded messages and i requested to have my call return. The calls were never returned. I have had 8 days without pain medication. I have had to use over the counter meds. I will be contacting Medicare and my insurance company. Looking for a new doctor.

This doctor terminate life and will not bring out the necessary machines needed. He just wants to save his hospital money over a life.

Todd Atkinson, 8710 College Parkway, Fort Myers, FL


Rating: 5 out of 5.

I have used Dr. Atkinson since 2004 he has worked on my shoulders, knees and now has replaced my hip. I have sent several friends to him and they think he is the best. He shows true apathy, care and concern for his patients. I have the utmost confidence in him and never feel that a 2nd opinion is necessary, even the in-home therapist all agree on his professionalism and bedside manner. You won't see a commercial, or advertisement, but if someone recommends him to you, you should go!

Doctor is too full of herself, don’t entrust ANYONE with her care! No one!! She’ll gaslight you, and turn everything you say into your own problems?!!! Not her or one of her facilities Driftwood!
