MedExpress Urgent Care Reviews

Pros

Good company with steady hours if you wish them. Long days that often go well beyond 12 hours. Managers are informed, most are organized. Personnel are nice to work with. Freedom to do what you want after you work, with no on-call, but sometimes they might ask you to work if someone calls out. Nice medical managers for the most part, and many nice patients, but too many never see primary cares assigned or chosen by themselves.

Cons

Beware the premise that you get real vacation days, as they are given by the number of years you have worked, so no real 2 week vacation can be set aside many times. Hours extend to well beyond 12 many times and unless changed recently are uncompensated for salaried employees. Not enough equipment for caring for things at times,, like for strains,sprains. Outmoded method thobsave money. Often not enough people to help, as with many Urgent Cares, high turnover. Dot physicals are problematic and really take excessive time and in the end other patients suffer waiting as DOT’s are often unprepared and belligerent. Should be done at Occ. Med Facilities, not at UC. Patients can burst into facility at 30 seconds before closing, and many often do on purpose. Many patients go from Primary Care to Er and then to Urgent Care all in the same day, because they can and have no consequences for abuse of care. Too much multitasking with calling in medications, answering phone calls, doing callbacks while trying to see 80 or mor patients in a day. Often during holidays may have to see 50 to 60 or more working alone.
