Latest Reviews, Comments, Questions for Toksook Bay Sub-Regional Clinic

Comment from Suzanne:

I left this place with at least 5 prescriptions and have felt overmedicated for several weeks. If you don't want the more expensive  medications they won't give you anything saying 'you must not need it." I was actually told "it's all about the money",when I refused a very strong pain killer and asked for a mild one. You know, the kind you can drive, read, and think on...

 

County or State run, I'm sure the pharmaceutical companies pay the physicians to prescribe their products. I was given so much junk (no explanation except what came from the pharmacy, with the script. Felt like a test project. Of course, in your alloted 10 minutes there's no time to ask questions.

 

There is also a major lack of patient:physician confidentialty, I heard my case being discussed as I came out of a waiting  room and headed to the front desk. Health circumstances that only my doctor and I should know. These girls were front desk receptionists, not professional healthcare workers. Do Not Recommend
