They saw me fairly quickly, although I had no appointment last Saturday. The nurse was pleasant and professional.The Nurse Practitioner discussed the possible ways to deal with this common cold and prescribed something to relieve the soar throat symptoms. She was professional, and yet down to earth and straight forward. I appreciate the office being open to first come-first served patients, even on the weekends.

Very nice facility, still new-looking, and entire staff was very polite and professional. The nurse practitioner I met, Stacey Dill, is not just a medical professional on their staff. She’s extremely personable and truly cares about the patient sitting in front of her. She’s so compassionate and kind to anyone she meets, and takes her time with every patient. Wait time was minimal from the time I checked into until the time I left. I highly recommend Stacey and AFC Urgent Care in Lookout Valley. Thank you!

Getting an appointment was great. As far as the appointment, everytime my child goes there I get told he has strep and he needs an antibiotic. I do not believe this to be true I believe the provider is simply trying to get people in and out. My son’s throat is not even red or anything?? But he took one peak at his throat and said “oh yeah” like it’s you can tell by looking at his throat. I do not recommend this facility due to the provider that just wants to prescribe you something and get you out of the door. Sad.

Went in on Tuesday at 3:15 to get chest x-ray. Office opened till 6:00 but x-ray technician left at 3:00. Went back Wednesday morning at 8 am and first one in the door. Set there waiting to be seen till 9:20. X-ray technician did not show up that day. Went back Thursday and I finally got chest x-ray. Communication is bad. Need to let people know whats going on.

The staff here is wonderful—the doctor that “saw” me, not so much. I called before I came in to see if they would do staple removal as I had a head injury a week ago and was told I needed to have them out in 7 days. Upon arrival, I was seen fairly quickly to be told, “I don’t take staples out before 10 days.” After informing him what I was told as a patient in the ER, he says, “Well you can go back to the ER then.” I have no idea which doctor I saw as there was no introduction. Not to mention, there was no examination of the healing wound. A little (or a lot) more tact could and should be used when dealing with any patient, especially a first time patient. I will go elsewhere with my business. Wonderful staff, rude doctor.

I am so frustrated. They ask me what pharmacy. I told them cvs in Trenton. My husband has covid can hardly stand up. But having to be sent from pharmacy to pharmacy. Good city doesnt have our insurance information.So he will have to drive back up the mountain to get his insurance card . The man is sick.This is ridiculous and uncalled for. To say the least.

I had a visit on July 1, 2024 with swelling in my right lymph node and right ear pain. I was seen quickly, and given an explanation for what was going on and instructions on how to continue toward a complete recovery. I had medication that was provided and received a shot. They were very professional and showed great empathy for me. They were very friendly. I would gladly go there again. I was there approximately 30 minutes total.

I tested negative at the AFC for both Covid and the flu. My fever was spiking to 102 and my blood gas was down. I reported that to the nurse and doctor. I was told that I didn’t have anything but a cold. They should have told me to retest at a later date. My internal medical doctor called to check on me. They did not have flu tests so I had not gone there initially. We just talked on the phone. Today (2 days later) my doctor told me to retest based on my symptoms. I have Covid. I am 66 and so in the high risk group. I wish AFC had taken this more seriously. You all were kind, but should have known with the fever and lower blood gas that something was going on besides a cold.

WONDERFUL staff! Everyone involved in the process was spectacular. The woman at the front desk was very friendly and helpful with the checkin process. The triage tech was very personable. And Dr. Thompson was so fantastic! He had great bedside manner and was great at explaining everything to us.We were there less than 30 minutes. We will definitely be back.

Unfortunately I needed to see a doctor on a Saturday morning. Went to our local AFC. Everything went well. Staff and doctor were nice and friendly. Doctor listened to me tell him about my issue and knew right away what needed to be done. Will definitely go there again when I cannot see my primary doctor.

I was late due to traffic on I24 so I called and the receptionist was super nice about it and said they’d hold my spot. I was in and out in probably 20 minutes. Super nice, friendly staff.

I know it seems like these places are a dime a dozen, but this one is seriously SO wonderful. The staff are all friendly, the doctor today was so kind and informative, just all around a good experience. To top it off, I walked in at 3:30 and walked out at 4:03 - didnt take more than 30 minutes out of my Sunday. This is the AFC I will use for ALL of our after hours/weekend needs!!

Review №39

My wait was 30-35 minutes. I was sent a link to complete registration on my phone, so I could wait in my car. The receptionist nurses were courteous. The doctor asked questions, really listened, and processed his conclusions with me, then tested for flu and COVID. I had neither.He listened to my chest, and I got a steroid shot and a prescription of antibiotics only if things didn’t clear up in a few more days (I had symptoms for six before coming in).Several years ago I went to the same clinic and a different doctor scared me half to death, saying I might have cancer. This recent visit was completely different, thankfully.

I was visiting my daughter and her family when I injured my right knee from hiking and biking, trying to keep up with my 2 year old grandson, when my knee isn’t use to the hilly terrain, as I live in the flatlands of SW Georgia. I could barely walk yesterday morning when I woke up and was going to head home. I wondered how I could drive 5 hours since it was hard to bend my knee to sit in the car. I wanted a professional opinion to see if it would be ok for me to drive that distance safely. Dr Thompson was phenomenal. He was very kind and and gave me great care. He recommended an injection of a steroid and a pain injection to make my trip home more comfortable for me. It really helped and I got myself home. I praised your practice to my daughter and her friend as well. Thank you Dr Bruce and your front desk and nurse that gave the injections. Great team!!!

Have to say as far as being my first time ever visiting an Urgent Care facility was very much impressed. Staff was helpful as well as knowledgeable, must say was very impressed.

AFC is the only urgent care I go to. There is a fast pace less than a mile from my house but I’d rather travel the 20 miles to AFC. They are always thorough and check everything you ask them to. The doctors or practitioners always listen to everything you say and do as you ask. They will always be my number one choice for urgent care. AFC in Lookout Valley Chattanooga, TN will always be my go to as long as they’re open. Dr. Wheatley was great today. My husband was sick also and they let us be seen at the same time which was convenient.

Arrived at 2:45pm. I was triaged and in a room by 3pm. Didn’t see a provider until 5:10pm. Seems like he was in a rush and was in and out within a minute or 2. Didn’t really listen to my problems. I was told he wanted to swab me for strep but I didn’t have a sore throat. Just a sinus infection. I asked for an antibiotic shot and he told me my symptoms didn’t warrant a shot. The nurse came in to swab me for strep and I was told the test would take 10 minutes and the provider would come back in. About 30-45 minutes later, the nurse comes in with an antibiotic shot after I was told I would be getting one. The provider never came back in to discuss my test results. I asked the nurse what antibiotic the provider was calling in and she states he wasn’t going to be sending anything in and that if I wasn’t better within a few days to call back and he would send something in. I understand that it’s flu season but I don’t understand why I had to wait so long and they were not busy. I will not be returning to this clinic

Im a truck driver & I went in for a DOT Physical & a pre-employment drug screen today. My appt was @ 12PM. There were a few people in the waiting room but as soon as I completed my check in from my phone, I was called back for the drug screen. As soon as I was done with that, the nurse then started the physical by checking my blood pressure, reading the eye chart, etc. After that, she lead me to an exam room and in less than 10 minutes, the doctor came in, completed the physical & signed my medical card & long form. I was walking out the door in just under an hour! By far, the fastest & most efficient process Ive ever encountered. Best of all, the receptionists, nurse & doctor were all very professional, upbeat & kind, which helped ease my usual anxiety that results in a high blood pressure reading. Any truck driver out there knows that can be a total deal breaker for getting a clean medical card which causes a loss of your job! I actually had the absolute BEST blood pressure reading Ive ever had in a doctors office. I honestly believe the attitude & overall of vibe of AFC- Lookout Valley on Cummings Hwy played a large role in my successful experience. This place is AWESOME!!

Love this clinic and the friendly doctor and other staff members. They are very busy in the mornings and early afternoons, so we have learned to call for appointments during less busy times. A permanent x-ray specialist is sorely needed at this location to help with some diagnoses, as they only have one on Fridays as a fill in. The clinic location has saved me several trips to my primary care physician downtown, thankfully because it accepts Medicare.

Very poor experience this time around. We came in for my sons ear infection at noon. Put his name down to be in line, it was expected to be a 3 hr wait so we came home to wait. Went back at the time given and waited another 1,5 hrs inside the room. Doctor had apparently gone in to the wrong room and we were left waiting forever. A nurse was notified and went in to tell him we were next, but he got mad at her and I heard them talking about it not being right. We left soon after without being seen and called a teledoc instead. We had a prescription within 15 minutes of the call. This happened on Sunday, January 14, 2024

Im not a neophyte tech user. The tablet/phone check in was not synced so that I could get my code put in in time. It kept giving me new codes instead of letting me get back to the check in page. After several attempts she finally took the tablet and got it to work. Maybe she was having a bad day, you never know.

This was my first visit. The employees were all very pleasant. My wait no more than 15 minutes, which included completing my registration information. The waiting room and patient room were very clean . After being taken back to a room , it was a short wait for the doctor. The doctor was pleasant, answered my questions and diagnosis was given. I never felt rushed. She encouraged me to come back as needed. I was there less than an hour. It was a good visit. I will go there rather than the ER in the future, when and if it is necessary. Thank you AFC! Youre amazing!

The nurse practitioner we had, Robert Kite, left us feeling like we were children. His tone was extremely condescending. I’ve never had an experience like that in a walk in clinic. When you feel bad, you don’t need lengthy, elementary explanations.

The clinic was clean. Doctor was professional. I made an appointment which didn’t seem to matter. It took 1 hr and 23 minutes. I only went in to get a tetanus shot. I had to go to the RN station to inform them that I needed to leave for work and then they were quick to get to me. And I am not sure why this survey appears to be coming from someone other than me. My name is Deann.

Called for next day appointment. I was reminded via text about my appointment the next morning. I arrived 10 min early, but my wait time was very short to be seen. Paperwork completed online. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Dr. Thompson was great. I was assessed and was given exactly what I needed to help me. AFC of Lookout Valley has made a great first impression. I will definitely visit this office in the future. Ten star 🌟 rating personally.

I am a big fan of this Lookout Valley AFC. The staff is always pleasant. The two doctors are really top notch. I know personally how great Dr. Dill is. Last year she really made a huge difference’s when I was very sick and unable to see my GP. I was so grateful.

Had a very good visit at AFC of Lookout Valley yesterday. Made the appointment via the phone. Filled out all the paperwork online and submitted it before I arrived. Waited about 20 minutes to be called back.Everyone was very nice and professional. Once back in the room, from the time I left took about 20 mintues. They had to mix up a shot for me.Very impressed with cleanliness of the faculty, professionalism of the staff and with the attention I received.In the future, I will not hesitate to contact AFC of Lookout Valley for my medical needs.

I wasn’t seen until an hour after my appointment time. The NP who saw me essentially didn’t tell me anything to do for a double ear infection and upper respiratory infection except to do deep breathing and drink water. They did give me a steroid injection but no antibiotics. Complete waste of time and I’ll be going somewhere else.

If I could give this place less than one star I would. The nurse practitioner I saw was rude. He talked down to me. His bedside manner was terrible. They forgot about me. They made me late to the pharmacy bc they forgot about me. They treated me like I was an idiot. I literally opened my exam room door and asked if I could leave before the pharmacy closed and they looked baffled that I was still there? I use to really like this place, but I was treated so terribly there I won’t go back. They didn’t even tell me what they thought I was sick with. I had to ask the pharmacist. Don’t go here. Go somewhere where they actually act like they care.

Review №170

Care was anything but Urgent. Took over 30 minutes just to get put into a room and an additional 45 minutes in the room to actually see the doctor. Ran some tests and told results would take about 6 minutes……45 minutes later confused, I received discharge papers and the nurse asks if anyone had told me my results? Doctor never even came back, Assuming they forgot I was even in the room staring at the four walls in excruciating pain. Would not recommend.

Review №171

I cant remember the names of the 3 that helped me, but 1 lady was at reception desk, the next was the young lady in triage who was super nice and very quiet. I think my doctors name was Johnson, either way he retired from USMC after 38 years of service, hats off to him for that. He shot me more straight about my medical concerns than any MD that Ive ever stood in front of. All in all I would go back to this facility for any urgent care that I might need.

Receptionists slow to attend me, both appeared to be on personal devices, sign in is a nightmare for non- technical patients. Once taken back the service was prompt, comfortable, professional and complete! Stacey Dill was as pleasant and thorough as good as Ive seen. And Im very happy with her diagnosis and treatment results.On the clinical side- 5 stars is not enough. Reception 4 stars was too much. Ive been to your clinic a few times and Dr Roberts and all NPs are very good!

Front desk - nurse efficient and friendly, they went above and beyond to try and get us seen. Unfortunately there was a new provider very slow with the amount of patients we saw come and go in the 2 hours we sat in the waiting area seemed excessive wait time . That being said he addressed the issues and our primary doctor confirmed the alergy just not the recommended replacement drug. Would I return if the need absolutely.

I have seen Dr.Bruce Thompson several times over the year. Hes a great doctor. I would rate this doctor a complete 5. However, I am rating AFC as a whole. They are working on a referral for me to see a Specialist. Today is the 12th of July. They have had since July 3rd to update me about a referral being started. Ive called numerous times. Please finish my referral AFC. This is detrimental to my health. Thank you!

The woman at the front desk had the sense to tell me they had no X-ray tech on premises when I told her I had symptoms of pneumonia and that I should go to the AFC 10 miles away instead which has. She saved me money and time when she easily could have overlooked it and admitted me to the doctor.

I was visiting from NY and wound up getting worse than when I got here. Wanted to be safe than sorry since I’m pregnant and visited AFC to make sure I didn’t need an antibiotic.

There are a lot of “doc-in-a-box clinics that you can choose and sometimes you wonder about the care you get. One time at a different place I had “Dr Shaky hands sew up my lip scary. But AFC in Lookout Valley is different. It seems to be well run, clean, friendly but most of all I feel confident in the care I receive there. One person in particular is Titiyanna R, the nurse who helped me. She was so kind and sweet and, even thought I felt sick made me feel like I was welcomed and cared about.
