Springfield Clinic Orthopedics Walk-In

Experiencia negativa: The doctors at Springfield clinic orthopedic walk-in seemed to only care about scheduling as many different things to charge your insurance rather than sitting down and actually speaking to the patient and trying to figure out what’s wrong. On Saturday, I went into Springfield clinic to get my shoulder looked at and was refused treatment because I did not want to schedule a x-ray before speaking to a doctor. The doctor informed the nurse To tell me that he would not see me if I would not OK the x-rays.

Experiencia fantástica: Friendly staff, and fairly quick for a walk-in clinic.

Experiencia negativa: I was turned away as a walk-in because they said the wait was too long. Yet, they were seeing people who came in after me. When I questioned them, they said that they will only see acute injuries when they are limited on time. No one ever asked if my injury was acute or chronic…they just immediately sent me out the door. Very unfortunate first impression.

Experiencia negativa: My husband went to the walk in clinic on Aug 24 for plantar fasciitis that hadn't healed after 3 months of rest. He saw a PA for 10 minutes who ordered X-ray and MRI. After insurance, bill was $335.46 for '45 min outpatient "new patient" visit' even though it was a walk in clinic visit for plantar fasciitis. He was sent home with a foot brace he didn't need and was told to stop wearing 5 days later after MRI, $327. Follow up visit: under 10 minutes with PA for $255.42. Final followup visit: 5 minutes with PA for $180.78. I called the patient advocate team to ask about self pay rates. I was told "we can't tell you what self pay for an office visit costs, not even in advance." I asked if they could tell me the percentage difference between their self pay rates vs. what gets billed to insurance. I was told "we can't tell you what a visit costs (insurance or self pay) and we can't tell you what percentage a self pay rate would be." I asked to speak to whoever the self pay person is. She never called me back. Asked to speak to Ortho clinic assistant manager about rates and charges. She refused to speak to me, her receptionist told me to call patient advocate about it. Patient advocate didn't call me back. Our poor experience begs the question: are people charged arbitrary amounts for arbitrary reasons on arbitrary days? How else to explain the utter lack of cost transparency and the refusal to communicate?

Experiencia fantástica: Had an injury during an early morning run, went there that morning, was seen almost immediately. Got X-rays done there. Was seen by a doctor who gave me a thorough exam and explanation, and gives me great confidence (Dr. Duhig). All in all, an excellent health-care experience. I am so grateful they have this walk-in (hobble-in, in my case) clinic. I recommend this highly.

Experiencia positiva: Got in as soon as they opened so I didn’t have to wait . Got checked in, x-ray wrist, diagnosed and out the door in 30 minutes. 4 stars because my prescription was sent to Sams pharmacy in St. Charles , Mo. Calling in to correct this, I was on hold and transferred for 10 minutes. Recording asked enter my number to call me back. I hung up and got on the Sams app to transfer it to Springfield. Took only a few minutes. Be sure you specify which pharmacy.

Experiencia fantástica: Registration went very smoothly! Taken back to room within 5-10 minutes! Was seen by PA-C Rory - very Professional, Compassionate, Knowledgeable, good rapport with me! Ordered several x-rays and the x-ray technician was Great! After back in patient room, the PA came in told us the Patella was fractured!! She showed us the x-rays and where the fracture was located!! A total knee/leg brace was ordered and put on me!! The PA told me “Non-Weight bearing until I see her in 2 weeks; I’ve the knee!

Experiencia fantástica: We really like the idea of a walk in orthopedic clinic. The nurse was most excellent. Very Pleasant and knowledgeable. The Doctor was Great as well. He got me set up with PT and diagnosed my shoulder issue. I have an another appointment in 3.5 weeks.

Experiencia fantástica: This is how a medical office should be run!

Experiencia fantástica: Pa was very kind and helped my husband. He is much better this evening.

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice personnel and dr. Was very thorough

Experiencia fantástica: Twice in the last 3 years I have visited the Springfield clinic walk-in orthopedic clinic. Both times I found the treatment efficient friendly and excellent. The staff are all friendly and the doctors listen and prescribe effective treatments in order x-rays if needed and you do it right then. I'm just really impressed.

Experiencia fantástica: Very friendly and accommodating

Experiencia fantástica: Dr. Dejong did a wonderful job with my daughter’s injury. He spoke directly to her and was very attentive. Thank you for your care!

Experiencia fantástica: The staff was so friendly, excellent care givers, through exam

Experiencia fantástica: I was very satisfied with the care I received from all.

Experiencia fantástica: I really appreciate the option of walking in when a painful issue arises. Less than 90 minutes from parking to leaving. Thanks

Experiencia fantástica: I was told there was a hour to hour and a half wait. The whole process from going to a room with the nurse, seeing the dr, then to xray, back to the room and seeing the dr again and finishing up with nurse was approximately 2 hours. The dr was thorough in explaining what was wrong with my heel.

Experiencia positiva: Very pleased with the entire visit.

Experiencia fantástica: Received great care in X-rays and all staff members. Angelia Roger was very thorough. Thank you

Experiencia fantástica: I was in and out in 20 minutes and feel like I was taken care of, and able to get a follow up with the specialist wayyyy faster than had i gone to my primary physician whom actually didnt help much at all. But thats a Memorial issue. SC is awesome.

Experiencia fantástica: I was very please with my service. My Practitioners where wonderful. I am feeling positive results from my visit. Thank You Judie

Experiencia fantástica: Staff was very respectful and caring and the Dr was very thorough and explained everything in a way I could understand.

Experiencia negativa: They didn't act they had the time to listen. Acted like I was drug seeker. Didn't help much at all.

Experiencia fantástica: A place to go for consultation and treatment. This walk in Springfield Ortho is just the BEST! Dr. Sherman, and the Resident following him, the staff, Sammy, providing the Knee Sleeve support were very professional, kind and compassionate. Thank you so much!!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Everybody was awesome.

Experiencia fantástica: Wait time was low. Dr Duhig was knowledgeable & seemed to really care. He explained everything & was very thorough.

Experiencia negativa: I came in 3 weeks ago complaining of knee pain and pain in my hand, obvious swelling in both my knee and hand, first I was told I can only be seen for one thing at a time and I’d have to make another appointment to be seen again. The dr then told me he would need to get my records my primary but would have to schedule a follow up appointment until then he sent me for an xray of my knee and sent me home. 3 weeks later I’ve called twice to ask what my xray revealed and if my records came in. Both times I was told I will be called back . I received my bill for the service but haven’t even been helped yet. That’s poor service .

Experiencia fantástica: Beginning from the receptionist to the MD and in between, these people care about what is going on and they listen to what you are saying and that is an amazing trait in this day and age!! Thank you so much! Even radiology when they hurt me!(lol) Vickie Kline

Experiencia fantástica: Great and timely service.

Experiencia fantástica: Convenient, friendly and not a long wait time to see doctor on cal. Dr was very thorough and took the time to explain X-rays and courses of action.

Experiencia fantástica: Got referred from my doctor's office. Walked right in and was seen right away . Staff was friendly and super helpful.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to Springfield Clinic’s walk-in Orthopedics today with shoulder pain, which resulted in very fast and friendly service. The receptionist, Dr. Sharma, his Nurse and radiologist were so nice. Thank you very much.

Experiencia fantástica: I was A walk-in about 2 PM in the afternoon. Had a swollen and painful ankle for about three weeks before I decided to come to the clinic. I had a 20 minute wait and I was taken in to an exam room taken to x-rays and return to the exam room, Dr. Dun possible misspelling came in and explained the x-rays to me very succinctly. He examined my foot was excellent at explaining all the bone structure and what was causing the pain. He said we would try a set of supports that he had a nurse bring in later , they immediately relieved my pain and for the rest of the day I could walk quite normally after several days I believe they will do the trick so far so good . This is one of the best doctors I’ve had in the sense of his communication with the patient and his explanations.

Experiencia fantástica: Did a really good job . Fast and friendly people

Experiencia fantástica: The Doctor was amazing !!

Experiencia fantástica: Seen quickly. Staff friendly and efficient.

Experiencia fantástica: From the friendly greeting when we walked in 30 minutes before closing on a Saturday, to the pleasant exchanges with nursing staff, to my contact with Lisa Lyons, PA-C, the experience was 5-star! Nineteen days after my injury and three previous doctor visits, it was an incredible relief to encounter someone who realized healing was going backward rather than forward and then prescribed a treatment plan.

Experiencia fantástica: This is the second time I visited the Walk-in Orthopedic Center and have had good experiences both times. Very short wait time prior to being seen, thorough conversation and exam with doctor, prompt review of X-rays and a game plan with follow-up before leaving.

They were a blessing when my kids played sports, and always help this old girl out!

Experiencia fantástica: Great Angelia Roher is wonderful

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone was very kind, mellow and professional. A breath of fresh air! The building, exam room, X-ray area and restroom were spotless! Other clinics in town and even hospitals nowadays aren't very clean, the floor tiles, have visible dirt and dust. The main entrances are clean and some hallways, however the exam rooms floor tiles used to be gleaming, and it used smelled clean in there. Now, waiting rooms have windows and ledges are filthy and overriden with dust. Even in the ER dried blood curtains and on linens, and other areas! I even dred walking on their floors, making sure my purse, coat, sweater or anything else, touches the floor. I disinfect my shoes when I get home. I am going to transfer all of my Healthcare to Springfield Clinic. I wish Springfield Clinic would open up a hospital near Scheels in Springfield, IL. The State Capital definitely, needs more, than 2 hospitals. The X-ray tech created the most beautiful and clear images, I have ever seen! She wasn't rushed, clearly, she explained everything before, each procedure. She beamed with joy as she performed her job. A rare jewel. Keep up the good work! A very satisfied customer.
