Had my initial visit at Colony this afternoon, as did Mike. His appointment was a bit before mine so I had opportunity to sit and just watch how reception, check in, went before heading in to see my doctor for our "Meet and Greet."
First of all, the place is beautiful, comfortable and much quieter than some medical establishments I've been in. Every person entering was greeted, either walked to check in or asked to head to the "living room" until their time at check in. Each doctor's medical assistant arrived very quickly for each patient and wait for each arrival was minimal. When I was called in, vitals were taken, I was then taken to exam room and did a bit more paperwork before my doc arrived.
We discussed prior history, some minor present issues, necessary shots, lab work and enjoying life. Never was I felt rushed. Setting up times for lab work and return visit took a bit of time, but again, never were we rushed. It was a great visit. Everyone was pleasant, helpful, listened, and caring.
