Summit Family Medical Center

I was debating between a 4 and a 5. However, the staff and service appears to be more involved than the past. They have always been accommodating to my medical needs. I will continue to be a loyal patient.

Having been a patient of Dr. Birge for over 2 decades, I have always appreciated his attention and concern for my health even as he himself fought serious illness at times. Now, with the addition of Nurse Practitioner Devlin, the caring continues. Thank you for years of help!

Dr Birge has been my PCP for about 18 years, my experience has been very good. He listens to what your problem is and gives you a treatment that would work the best for you, if its something more complex he will definitely referred you to a specialist. Theyve been very accommodating with me. Thank you.

Birge is a family doc, that being said he does have a general knowledge for most basic conditions. I was thankful when he let me know my options for my ezcema. Unfortunately my condition is so chronic that it was beyond his area of expertise. Still all and all it's a fine family doc shop.

Went to Dr. Birge for an antidepressant as my wife finally wore me down about getting on one thinking it might help my social anxiety. She has been going to his practice for years, so it made sense for me to go too. I honestly cannot see why she goes there. Besides the woman at the front desk who is pleasant and the blond nurse that I liked a lot, the other employees, including Birge himself, do not seem fit for their jobs, at least in my experience. Dr. Birge gave me the immediate impression it was his way or the highway. He talked over me, seemed impatient and rushed, and wholly discounted any suggestions I might have had regarding what antidepressant or treatment might be best for my anxiety. From a medical standpoint, he seemed to know about the medications and their side effects, etc. But from a personal standpoint, he left me feeling like he couldn't really care less about me. My most recent "visit" from today, Saturday July 13, was a disaster. From the beginning, when the nurse who brought me to the back room seemed cold and unfriendly (it was not the blond one), to the 30 minute unchecked-on wasted time inside the interior "waiting" room where nobody bothered to spend five seconds and let me know they were aware I was still there, and to the end, when I finally walked out and told the front desk woman that I might call but also might not, I knew I would never be coming back to this place. A generous One Star b/c SOME of the staff is nice and whatever the hell my wife sees in continuing to go there (a habit that I will strongly urge her to break). Save yourself the awful feeling of not being truly valued by your family practice and go literally anywhere else.
