Piedmont Physicians Group

Three stars is an average of 5 stars for Dr. Marxer but 0 stars for the appointment staff. Actually it would be minus 5 if that were possible. I called on November 2^nd to make an appointment for my mother. I was caller number 15, I’m 20 minutes into the hold and only caller number 8… That will be at this rate, 40 minutes to make an appointment. They’ve gotten too big for the staff…

A friend of mine recommended Dr. Jodi Chitwood and I’m very happy she did. Dr. Chitwood and her staff are extremely professional, talented and amazing.
I liked that I could be seen before 8 a.m. And I enjoyed not waiting very long to be seen. And the overall friendliness of the receptionist, nurse and doctor.
Jocelyn, my nurse, was very professional and kind. She answered any and all questions I had. Her bedside manor was sparkling! Probably one of the best nurses I’ve ever encountered!
I’ve been to so many doctors in Atlanta in the past year since I’ve moved here and I have yet to find a primarily care physician til now that I was happy with.
I felt like I walked in with a thousand questions, and Chitwood took her time and answered every single one of them with a cool and confident demeanor.
I was treated with care and respect. I was happy from the time I arrived to the time I left. I can’t explain anymore how happy I am with my experience!
I’d recommend Dr. Jodi Chitwood to anyone!

I only tried this practice because one of the doctors was recommended to me through a friend. When I called to schedule a physical they said that he wasn’t accepting patients at this time. I hung up the phone, looked on Unilocal and found another doctor highly rated in his practice. Called back and they said he wasn’t accepting new patients either! Frustrated, I asked them to make an appointment with the new doctor and that was that.
The appointment was only 2 weeks out, which I thought was nice. When I arrived for the appointment I wasn’t impressed with the office itself nor the front desk staff. The place felt cold and dated. I was pretty sure that I wouldn’t return.
Then I met Dr. Chen. She was extremely kind and concerned with my well being. Spent plenty of time talking and getting to know me. After the appointment, she went out of her way to contact me — on her day off — on her cell phone — to make sure that the test I needed was properly scheduled.
The facility is definitely lacking warmth, comfort and even privacy, but the experience and relationship with Dr. Chen made up for that.
Would recommend her and will continue to use her myself. Would have given 5 stars if the facility was updated and the front desk staff was a little more friendly.

My first visit with Dr. Roberts was today, and I don’t have a thing to complain about! Well, I wasn’t a fan of paying for parking in the parking garage, but that’s it. I had zero (yes, zero) wait time in the lobby. The office staff was nice and helpful. The nurse was friendly and excellent at her job. Dr. Roberts has great bedside manner and seems to know her stuff. I was very confident in everything she told me. I had to get routine labs drawn and the phlebotomist was great as well. Like I said, nothing to complain about!

I really liked Dr. Roberts; however, the unethical business practices of Piedmont Physicians Group won’t allow me to ever return. I came in here for my yearly well woman exam. This was supposed to be covered by my insurance; however, by the time they were done I owed hundreds of dollars on a procedure that should have been 100% covered.
I will look elsewhere for my medical needs.

I have been seeing Dr. Manocha as my primary care doctor for some time (although I go to the doctor as little as possible). She is great and I have always been happy with the experience with her. I’d give her, on her own, 4.5 stars.
However, the front desk and staff that answers calls are pretty rude. Apparently, they are doing you a favor by letting you see a doctor. I would give them maybe 2 stars. I’d recommend the place but if you already don’t like the experience of going to the doctor (long wait times when you have an appointment, contradictory answers from support staff, rudeness when you ask questions about payment or processing, inability to get someone on the phone) I’d just warn you to prepare yourself.

Dr. Dunlevie is by far the best doctor I have every been to. He truly cares about your well being, progression, and goals in treatment of medical issues. He is also an incredibly smart practitioner. I would recommend him to anyone, plain and simple.

I will be seeing a new doctor. I think I was just high off of life when I went to this appointment. In hindsight, she didn’t really address my concerns at all. I will be consulting a different doctor. I felt no difference from taking Vitamin D tablets for two months, so I didn’t take the third dose for a month. The migraine medicine that I was prescribed just made my migraines worse. On top of that, I found out that I was having migraines because of an infection. Never ever ever again.

My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Craig Peters for several years now and could not be more pleased and incredibly in love with his care, his compassion, his bedside manner (an all-​important priority for me!), his professionalism, his prompt and thorough care at each visit, his staff and all of their personal touches at Piedmont Physicians Group. Most highly recommend Dr. Peters! Top shelf… and an amazing «find» in today’s medical environment! When either of us calls in, there’s little or no wait to talk to the person we need. Likewise for each time we must go into the office for an annual or that rare sickie visit. Super care and caring! Love Dr. Peters!!!

This is the best medical practice I have ever been to. Both my husband and I see Dr. Shep Dunlevie. He is kind, patient, knowledgeable, and attentive to our needs. He listens and asks questions. He is virtually always on time. Dr. Dunlevie and his entire group of staff are the best! Going to the doctor is a great experience!

I had to get a physical before I moved back to the bay area and my regular doctor. Using Unilocal suggestions, I made an appointment with Piedmont Physicians’, Dr Donna J Roberts.
My first medical experience in Altanta was at a dermatologist’s office and was the worst I have ever had. I was thus a bit nervous as I navigated the parking area to walk in to my appointment. I soon learned I had nothing to worry about.
Dr Roberts’ aide is an awesome lady. She let me know she and Dr Roberts had been working together for years and that I’d love Dr Roberts.
She was exactly right. Dr Roberts is a sweet and professional lady who takes time to address all the questions I have and makes me feel like she wants to be there with me. I was so happy to find such a perfect doctor; it made me a little sad that I would not be seeing her again. Any doctor that can make me feel like that after a complete physical has got to be good.
She mentioned to me that she is accepting new patients, so if anyone needs a new doctor, I coudn’t more highly recommend Dr Donna J Roberts at Piemdont Physicians.

When I moved to Atlanta, I had been going to the same Dr. since I was a child. So honestly not excited about finding a new one.
Luckily, a friend recommended Dr. Craig Peters. He takes his time, gets to know his patients, has a sense of humor, and seems to genuinely care.
And when I need a last minute appointment and he’s booked up, I see his assistant, who is also all of the above.
Really can’t say enough positive things about this practice.

I really, really, really like my doctor. I see Craig Peters, MD, who is a part of the Piedmont Physicians Group. He is really good and takes the time to sit down and talk to you about any issues you may have. His nurse is also really nice. The check-​in and check-​out office staff is really nice too. I can’t Unilocal about the other doctors in the practice but I have heard from friends that they are all good.
A friend of mine referred me to go to Dr. Peters when I was looking for a doctor. He is part of Piedmont hospital and they are in my insurance company’s network, which makes billing easier since I don’t really understand how health insurance works.
If you’re looking for a good doctor who takes the time to talk to you, go see Dr. Peters. Also, I called recently to see him about a minor issue and got an appointment for the next day, which surprised me. It is definitely reassuring that you can get in if you have a problem, rather than waiting for weeks to see a doctor.
