DON'T BOTHER! I went there twice. First time, I ended up going to my doctor in Boston the next week with a severe sinus infection. I was told at the MC that it was a virus.

I figured, ok, sometimes things happen.

Second time, last winter, I was very sick and had a hard time breathing. The NP examined me and when she listen to my back chest and had me breathe, I couldn't stop coughing or wheezing. She said she thought it was viral and Hopefully, I would be ok. I was so sick the next day, I went to my doctor. I had a serious case of pneumonia. I was on heavy antibiotics, prednisone, and an inhaler. NO EXCUSE FOR THEIR NEGLECT!

Another time, my daughter was home for Christmas. She had a positive strep test before she left and was on antibiotics for a few days. She forgot her antibiotics and was getting sick again, she went to the MC and told them what happened. They gave her nothing! On the plane ride home, she had a temp of 102 and was vomiting. She went right to her doctor and was put on antibiotics again.

I think they should be out of business. I know too many people have been put on antibiotics for years, but, really, I believe they are told not to give them.

To quote my doctor, They're going to kill someone!"
