Pros

Co-workers, catered lunches from sales reps

Cons

First, their hiring practices: During the interview process, I was given grossly inflated statements about commission/earning potential. I later learned this doctor/owner has lured previous employees with promises of commission that they never saw a dollar of. Turnover is constant. The office administrator who brought me on quit soon after, and I learned s/he was the 29th or 30th office mngr alone in 15 years. (This doctor obsesses over every dollar, but the money she's lost from turnover has to be astronomical.) This doctor and esthetics management bad-mouth employees in front of other employees and sales reps. Defamatory comments were made about past employees. Just shortly after starting, while trying to get important basics in place (commission structure, job responsibilities!) management actually advised to look for a new job. Said things have always been this dysfunctional at Turkle & Associates, wouldn't change, and that "so many people have come and gone that losing another wouldn't matter." This is was certainly a first and demoralizing early on. This doctor contacts people about job openings and leads interviews -- but has her poor office administrator of-the-month let them go. If you push for what was financially promised, this doctor will find a way to get rid of you. RUN toward other options.

Pros

Dr Turkle is one of the sweetest ladies I have ever met! She is always respectful and cordial as is all of her staff! Everyone here is very helpful and willing to make new staff feel welcome and comfortable. It's easy to feel happy here because the people and surroundings are very home like! I love it here and I am planning on staying for a very long time!

Cons

Honestly sometimes the managers get frustrated if you don't retain things after they've told you one or two times. There are lots of things to remember and the learning curve takes a couple weeks when first starting. Otherwise everything here is great!

Pros

Good Hours Nice Staff Great Patients Good Discounts

Cons

There are some business practices and decisions that don’t always seem to align with standard ethical or professional guidelines, which can be discouraging. The work environment can feel inconsistent at times, with unclear communication or last-minute changes that leave employees uncertain about expectations. The overall tone of the office often depends on the doctor’s mood or attitude, which can create an uneasy atmosphere for both staff and patients. While the team and management are generally supportive and capable, the heavy micromanagement from ownership makes it difficult for many employees to stay long-term.
