Pros

Good training on lifestyle medicine (the underlying cause of diseases).

Cons

The customer is always right to an extreme... Customer service is taken to a level that is toxic. Patient assaults you (physically hits you). Not discharged. Not criminally charged. Probably transferred to another physician possibly at another local center. Patient threatens to KILL you or your family (because you won't prescribe narcotics inappropriately)...no discipline for the patient. Patient threatens to 'go postal' and shoot up the office...give staff and clinicians 'active shooter training' that in effect instructs you to run away. The sexual harassment and even sexual assault to the staff are ignored, and not by delirious or demented patients.

We take matters such as violence or abusive behavior directed towards anyone in our centers seriously and take swift action to address through a variety of ways to include corrective measures such as behavioral letters up to and including disenrollment from our practice. We also provide our leaders with training on how to de-escalate issues with patients and the protocols for keeping our staff, patients and visitors safe. Thank you for bringing these concerns to our attention.

Thank you for the 5-star review and for helping us bring more good days to our patients. We appreciate your feedback regarding center metrics. Each community presents unique circumstances, and we appreciate your recognition that success is still achievable when we support each other.

Pros

Remote Work Flexibility: The ability to work from home offers a great work-life balance and a highly flexible day-to-day environment. Excellent Peers: The general staff and fellow employees are incredibly nice, professional, and great to collaborate with. There is a strong sense of peer-to-peer camaraderie.

Cons

Disrespectful Direct Management: My immediate supervisor frequently displays a disrespectful and condescending attitude toward direct reports. Constructive feedback is non-existent; instead, mistakes are met with public or private hostility rather than professional coaching. Complete Lack of Support: Management offers zero support when challenges arise. They provide no guidance or assistance leaving direct reports entirely on their own to figure things out.
