This place is truly one of the best healthcare centers I have ever had the pleasure of being apart of the are caring and you can tell them anything they will help you the best the can as well as make you feel apart of a community. Best care I have ever received from this place my doctor is Todd Belk and he is just down right wonderful. Their communication skills and portal Also allow me direct access to my bloodwork, prescriptions, and much more

Dr. Chris in the clinic is the best. He is caring and highly professional. The nurses are also very kind and knowledgeable. As a walk in, I received amazing care and couldn’t be more satisfied with my visit.

Will string you along for months just to not help you in the end. I waited 5 months for an appointment just to be forgotten about and left in the lobby while everyone clocked out. Meds were sent to wrong pharmacy. They schedule pointless appointments and nobody is on the same page. People fighting in the lobby, police had to be called. If you are looking for genuine help for mental illness keep looking. This ain’t it. 6 months of my life I spent waiting for an appointment to finally get help but nope. Just after your $.

Nothing I say about Cempa will do it justice. I had heard so many wonderful things about Cempa too... but it wasn't until my 1st appt that I truly understood just how wonderful! I was completely blown away by the services they offer, the kindness I was shown... All of it! I've never felt so at peace with a choice in my life. I'm grateful that so many people recommend Cempa Community Care to me. They do not disappoint!
