I am only rating this practice one star because it will not allow me to rate it as zero. If you want to see a microcosm of everything that is wrong with the health care system today, then by all means waste your time at this practice. If you value your time, health, and money avoid this practice like the plague! You will wait for hours to be seen and when you finally are seen you will be rushed through your appointment. Dr. Gunawardane will complain to you if she has to process a worker's comp claim for you, even if you have been a patient for 8 years like I have. She doesn't like it because "it takes too long to get paid" which is a direct quote. The office will charge $45 for FMLA paperwork, $10 for a doctor's note, and $10 if you need to have your prescription reissued. They will only use certain pharmacies, regardless of how inconvenient it is for the patient, because "if I send it to your pharmacy the girls will have to stay late to do extra paperwork and they don't like that" again, another direct quote. And God forbid you ever have to deal with her office manager, Corey. Corey is rude, condescending and acts nasty and put out regardless of the reason for your call. I have never been treated as poorly by a doctor's office ever in my life and what makes the treatment of their patients even more deplorable is the fact that everyone in there is there because of extreme pain and serious medical conditions. I will be reporting this practice to every medical board professional and governing agency I can get ahold of.
