I called to get a primary care doctor, Caroline at the front desk told me I was lying about needing my birth control refilled and was lying about needing a doctor.. called me back to tell me she did me a favor by asking the doctor a question and continues to have an attitude.. bad service from front desk.. cant imagine what the doctor is like since she refused to let me see the doctor.

Welp, sadly, I can honestly say this is the worst experience I've had with a doctor! I left humiliated, confused, offended, and didn't receive the (simple) care I needed. I'd recommend avoiding at all costs. I recently moved to the area and needed to find a new general practitioner, as well as refill my prescription for a medication I've been taking for years. Dr. Harkins not only refused to prescribe my medication, but did so without offering any reason why or offering any alternative method for addressing my health problem. He repeatedly stated that his biggest concern was not getting sued by an insurance company. I asked if there were any medical reasons or risks to my health for taking it, and he refused to answer the question, saying it wasn't his job to explain to me any potential health risks. He did say that he was most concerned about his personal liability for prescribing medication, and therefor he just didn't want to do it. We're not talking about some kind of opioid or dangerous drug here, by the way. I take a very basic, common medication that most people here probably do as well. The most shocking thing was that not only did he refuse to explain if/what were risks with the medication or why he thought it was a bad idea, but he also didn't offer any kind of other solutions to my health problem. I literally said, "You're a doctor, right? What medical advice do you have for me?" And he refused to answer. I was disgusted by his response. It's pretty scary to be in the presence of a medical professional and have them state they are not willing to help you in any way. I am certainly taking my business elsewhere. Somewhere I can actually receive healthcare. (One bright spot of the experience was the nurse, who was quite friendly, knowledgable and helpful. I'll leave my thoughts on the dated office and unnecessarily long check-in time for another day).
