Primary Care Physicians of Atlanta

DO NOT GO TO THIS OFFICE. The staff is ok but if your not the very first patient be prepared to wait. I have NEVER been seen on time. DR DOAN is a complete joke. She has to google everything & I pretty much run the entire visit. It’s a complete waste of time. I tell her an ailment all she does is google it. Luckily I don’t have anything life threatening going on cause she is just awful. After my most recent «visit» I will certainly make sure I find time to locate a «real doctor». Hey I have a smartphone and I’m pretty proficient in Google. Call me Dr Lycia smh I wish I could have given her 10 thumbs down! Oh one more thing they are so disgusting they allowed this woman to bring her dog which was CLEARLY not a service dog into the office and back where they see patients. When I politely asked if this was typical policy my question was ignored. DIGUSTING!!!

Pl. don’t make to this hospital at all. This is not a reliable hospital at all if you care about your life. There is not urgency or emergency care. The staff is not cooperative. The on call support doctor will never call you and wastes your precious time in making you wait for hours. They don’t have time to look at the patient need and requirement. I had a worst experience with the staff. They will not assist through mails. They will not call back if you leave message. They will not discuss about your report findings.

I fear for my life.
Being a long time client — I’m so disappointed in Dr. Smith. First, his lab was late in reporting results– then denying what I already knew — and — prescribing inappropriate drugs based upon his referral.

There’re whole bunch of idiots working there. I made an appointment for complete check up. After waiting for an hour, the dumb nurse told me that my insurance doesn’t cover physical and I had to be specific. The doctor can only write me a proscription based on what I tell her. What kind idiot can write me prescription based on what patient says without any examinations!!! I would never trust such a doctor.

The doctors here are good and actually have a good bedside manner. So it is particularly surprising that the front and back office staff, nurses, and medical assistants are awful. I have been a patient for a few years and honestly haven’t encountered a single one who is nice or helpful. The nurses and medical assistants treat you like you’re just a number. The doctors do change the experience once they arrive on the scene. It’s shocking because often, it’s the doctors who aren’t the nicest. If they did some attitude adjustments here, it would be a great office. They have a long way to go, sadly.

Be prepared to wait! They ask you to come 15 minutes before your appointment time and then you sit there for 45 minutes at least. Once I sat here for over an hour after my appt time. I’ve gone to this office at least 10 times and it’s the same every time. So annoying! I’ve seen a few different doctors and can’t say I really like any of them. They rush you in and out and the office staff is not very friendly. I’m actually sitting in the waiting room now and this will be my last visit. There is nothing positive I can say about this office. If you value your time and want a doctor that will listen to you, go somewhere else.

I have been a patient of Primary Care Physicians of Atlanta for close to 13 years. While I’ve always felt that Dr Herzog was my «primary» care physician, over the years I have seen many of the other doctors there and I can genuinely say I have been more than happy with all of them. Speaking directly about the two other Drs there I know the best, Dr Banks and Dr Maxa, both are exceptional. They are thorough, caring and patient.
Because I liked them so much, I have referred many friends and coworkers to the practice, and I can honestly say everyone has been very happy with their care. I have also appreciated how quickly PCP of Atlanta has been able to get both myself and the people I have referred in for care. Almost always it has been the same day if I called in the morning.
To state the obvious, I clearly recommend this practice and I have been doing this — to anyone who would listen — for many years. They are great doctors.

I never write review but after visiting this place I had to. I would never want to go back here. I had to pick a primary care physician for my insurance so I chose this place because I heard David Smith was amazing. I had a head injury so called to make an appointment. The ladies on the phone were extremely nice and helpful and made an appointment for me that day. Apparently only doctor available was Dr. Thomas Weeks. I got to my appoinment a few minutes ahead of time. I had confirmed my appointment time twice because I needed to be somewhere that afternoon. When I got to the office, the lady told me my appointment was 45 minutes later. I told her that it wasn’t and I had called to confirm twice. She said they put the wrong time in the computer so she would see if the doctor would see me as soon as he could since it was their mistake.
I was called back a few minutes later and the nurse took my info then said, «you need to go back in the waiting room because your appointment isn’t for 30 more minutes. I explained to her what happened and she acted annoyed and like she didn’t have time for me. She said Dr. Weeks sticks to his schedule and would not see me until it was my time, but she let me stay in the room anyways. Well, I was in there 55 minutes. I actually fell asleep on the table while I was waiting. I finally, after almost an hour, went back out and asked when the doctor would see me. She was very rude and said he would get to me when he could.
He finally came in and made me feel like an idiot for coming. He said I was fine. I explained to him that since it was my head, I wanted to be sure it wasn’t something more serious. He didn’t even spend 5 minutes in the room.
Dr. David Smith is wonderful and I have heard many great things about him, but I would not recommend going to a random doctor in this practice.

If I could give negative stars, I would.
Dr. Thomas Weeks III is incompetent. Do not risk your life or health or that of your child/​family member’s to his «judgment». If you would like your long-​term health, or illness, to be his «learning experience»…well then this is the doctor for you! In his words, he «just chocks it all up to a learning experience». Scary.
Otherwise, if you would like your health concerns to actually be taken seriously and treated properly, go to someone who has the experience and intelligence to do their job right the first time.
It is not that Dr. Thomas Weeks is INTENTIONALLY a terrible doctor that causes harm… he just DOES. And for that reason alone, you deserve better. Don’t risk it. It just is not worth your long term health. Seriously.
