I came into the Riverside CVS at 7:10pm, they said they are open until 7:30 (and had no appointments the rest of the evening). I was in a lot of pain. My throat hurt a lot. I asked for a strep test. They refused to see me because they said they only see patients after 7pm if they have a scheduled appointment. Mind you, I was in severe pain and needed this test. I guess she wasn't a doctor, because the Hippocratic oath meant nothing to her. Or, there is an exception to being able to get home early? Anyway... I drove an hour away from my house the next day afternoon, and yes, I did have Strep Throat. I can't remember a time I was more disappointed in a human being.

Covid denier? Please do not waste your money. Tested pos for Covid was told by racist Veldmar that.I had a bad cold! She is condescending . After I demanded treatment she gave me a prescription for antiviral. She never washed her hands before examining me. You could tell she doesn’t believe in Covid. Told me to get honey.. she needs to be fired!

Flu shot went fine and doctor was friendly. Had to wait a few minutes as another patient ran over was only issue.

To my understanding, this is a clinic that also accepts walk-in. I needed one shot for pre-employment vaccination and I arrived a little b4 11Aam. Made an appt. Since I didn't see any check-in options for walk-in and the only option was 1150AM, so after waiting, this lady arrives, and when the nurse comes out of the exam room, she tells me that I need to wait after the new lady that arrived because she has an appt. Although I been waiting an hour and it was almost 12pm. Terrible service.

The nurse or whoever works at the minute clinic today 1/11/21 is prejudice. Skipped me when I was registering to check in after she gave verbal confirmation that it was okay to register. I was on time but someone was ahead of me registering at the kiosk. The nurse told this Caucasian women to come in who had an appointment after me. Her name was displayed after mine her appointment was 30min after mine. After the nurse said to me to continue registering. She never came out to talk to me or display any customer service. Completely rude and unprofessional.

I had an appointment for a Rapid Covid-19 at 12noon. Melissa the nurse kept going in and out of the shack and saying she would be right with us. 25 mins later, she called me to say she Would be right out. I had to then call her to ask her if she wasn’t going to perform the test, then I would just leave. She then came out and did the test, needless to say it took 50 minutes. I believe she’s on drugs. Horrible experience

AVOID - Similar to other reviews, Nurse Practitioner, Zena Vatman, asks extensive, unnecessary, and verging on personal questions. She has you in the office for 25 mins. for a simple injection with a prescription. She was asking probing questions, challenging my MD, asking about his diagnosis, etc. Really inappropriate. Her role was to inject, not assess the history, location of doctor, type of doctor, why I had changed doctors, etc. Then introduced more red tape, not accepting the prescription which had been called into the CVS pharmacy 10 feet away. She claimed she didn't know the pharmacist and that it was a "3rd party" prescription. Really comes across as a pedantic control freak. She then censured me like I was a child and told me I had to get a hand written prescription, but she would let it slide this time. The CVS pharmacist said this is not customary or required and a called in prescription was as good as a hand written one, unless it was a controlled substance.

Went in because I had an eye infection. Clinician spent 20 minutes asking personal questions about myself. Spent three minutes diagnosing me . I had a stye. Charged me $140. Gave me a medication that cost $30 and I looked online I could buy it at Walmart for $15. Three days later nothing got better. Went to the Costco ophthalmologist . She told me the medication drops they gave you will do nothing. It’s for pink eye. Had to spend another $140 for the ophthalmologist and another $35 for an ointment and pills.

Long waits and less than accommodating service. Very argumentative 'nurse'. I Wanted a simple pneumonia vaccination & the nurse argued for 10 minutes why she would not give me the shot my doctor indicated ! Ended up going to Walgreens down the street.
