| - Finding a primary care doctor in Vegas is EXTREMELY difficult. I come here on an as needed basis. The hours are convenient, open 7 days, until 9pm during the week. I have been coming here for years for convenience, and sadly my health has suffered as a result.
Long story short, I went here for pre-op testing - I needed medical clearance for a scheduled surgery. The doctor told me if there was an issue with my tests, anything to prevent my surgery from going forward, they would call.
THEY NEVER DID.
14 hours before my surgery my surgeon/podiatrist calls to cancel my surgery. She received the fax from Urgent Care clearing me, but the individual test results clearly indicated I SHOULD NOT have been cleared. She called & spoke with the Dr who cleared me, wanting to know WTH was he thinking?!?!!!! clearing me with those results.
Thank God my podiatrist, Dr Nicole Delassandro is as thorough as she is. Thank God she's more of a doctor than the ones who work here. If she weren't thorough & reviewed my test results herself, if she just took the word of this Urgent Care doctor...I could have died on that table!!
If you value your life & health, don't come here.
ALSO....MediCare beneficiaries pay attention. If you have an auto accident, they will tell you they can't bill for services & you have to hire an attorney to be seen on a lien OR have MedPay on your auto policy. THIS IS A LIE AND IT IS VERY MUCH ILLEGAL. They make more money from accident cases than they do from MediCare. You should be treated & receive medical care because you need it, not based on who has deeper pockets. I
