SCAM SCAM SCAM!!!!

i have never in my life written a review because i have never felt passionate enough to take the time to do so. Well, I have been to this clinic a handful of times and its always been just OK... well today i made an appt. for a severe sinus infection and took $50 bill to pay my $30 co-pay... No change even though it was in the afternoon and was forced to use my credit card. Then the doctor told me she would like me to wait 3-5 days to make sure i don't just have a virus before i take my antibiotic... who has 5 days to lay around sick??? I rarely take antibiotics but once or twice a year and told her this.... then i asked for her to fill a routine prescription which i fill every time i see Dr. Killen, its a mild 10mg for an anti-anxiety med I have taken for 10 years... she asked Dr. Killen what she should do and he said to have me come in the following day to see him.... I asked if this meant i had to not only pay the $30 co-pay all over again but also come again in even though i was super sick and already here???? Yes, she said.

I think it is a scam to bill me twice and frankly i don't think the care given is worth even paying once!!!!
