Pittsburg CHC is so kind when you are sick. They tested for Covid and Flu and gave me a note for work. No new medicine so unfortunately my lungs ended up fully impacted with deep green mucus that required a 2nd trip to a different Urgent care for steroids and breathing treatments and strong antibiotics still working on recovery. Such an impossible illness with extremely high fever. But so grateful for the facility and how. Well they care for my family

I was seen quickly as I was in no shape to sit and wait. I felt so bad I wanted to crawl into a hole and die, if only it could be that easy. But my caregivers worked with skill and as quickly as they could to assess my condition and treat my pain, which was considerable. Jodi, I think it was, was excellent. Really, everyone was helpful and kind. The meds took awhile to take effect, but I am finally able to eat and drink today. Actually, the worst part was waiting 45 mins for the pharmacy to fill my prescriptions!

My visits are always pleasant. From the very helpful receptionists to the assistant that brings me back, to my talk with the medical student and my visit with the doc. Dr. Ayala makes me feel like she really cares about my health. Very attentive, kind, personable, knowledgeable, and professional. I feel so comfortable that I just start blabbing about how good I feel. The building is always very clean and well lit. I would recommend anyone needing medical assistance to make an appointment and make this their place for care. Way grateful!

Couldn't find my last review as they had to call me before to make something right when they failed me the first time on a women's issue they said they could help with. Came to update. I'm going to give a few examples since we do not plan on ever coming back: Desperate after testing my teens thyroid due to fam history and symptoms, we came here to get quick antibody tests on insurance and get them on thyroid meds as they advised over the phone they could handle. The doctor was nice but wasn't ever truly interested being too busy. 10 min is about their maximum time. Said she could be our pcp but I had to request each individual test and argue when my child had symptoms of deficiencies. When I asked for iron they argued saying it wasn't it, while i showed them large bruising from blood draws. Glad I said no we need this bc they came up very anemic as well. There were others but I digress. After telling them every appointment for 6 months that they could hardly eat and had pain, the doctor said to just take acid reducers and named several. Not only are some of those unsafe long term, they refused to see if they actually had an acid issue, while i kept saying multiple appts it seemed like hashis had caused SIBO or something. (And hashimoto's is usually assoc. w/ low acid.) When it was time to check their tsh again, they legit ordered the wrong test. I had to call and teach nurses about the difference between tsh and antibodies. My child has had so many blood draws to make up for their mistakes at almost every appointment we have had to come back and do again. I demanded that they be referred to an endo and GI specialist along with having an alergy test, and they put weird things on the referrals for the reason so you can guess how those appts have went (waste of time.) Be warned if you want real answers or have a chronic condition. 1 appt elsewhere with a nurse gave us the info needed for the stomach pain and it has changed their life. At best CHC is a large and growing acute urgent care that folks seem to think is good enough. You will find no pcps, functional medicine or help for more than a cold or sprain here. We should demand better as a community for the poor or people in a bind. Especially as expand/take over...

This was the absolute worst experience I've had with a dentist. Dr. Lemus was so rude. He asked if my 7 year old was mature or not. Confused, I said I guess. Deadpaned, he told her "I'm going to pull your tooth." When she went wide eyed, he got snappy with me saying "I thought you said she was mature." He had zero bedside manners. He also kept telling her and I that she wouldn't have a cavity if she would just brush her teeth. A different dentist helped us identify why she was getting the cavities. It wasn't due to a lack of brushing. I would not let Ricardo Lemus near your mouth and definitely not near your child's mouth.
