Dignity Health Urgent Care - Orcutt

Always been seen very quickly and the P. A Megan I believe is her name, I saw today, was caring, compassionate and very thorough.

We just walked in at 10: 45am on a Saturday morning, no other patients in the whole waiting room! My wife was taken right back. 20 minutes later and the only other patient just came in. Check the website before you come in and check how busy they are before you come. A lot better than 6-8 hours in the emergency room at the hospital. I come here first if I can. See you soon!

I was initially satisfied with going here, but the antibiotics I was prescribed did not work. At first I was prescribed one type of antibiotic, but they called me and told me that the lab discovered that the bacteria for the UTI I had was resistant to the one they initially prescribed so I ended up paying over $80 more so with the initial prescription that cost me over $40 the total I ended up paying was over $120 for antibiotics.
Dignity should some how get the test results while I'm there so I don't end up having to start one medicine then end up with having to get another. That's expensive and frustrating.
Then it turned out that the second antibiotic didn't work anyway so I called the office and asked what to do and was told they couldn't do anything more for me. I had to see a urologist or primary care or someone else.
I decided that I would go the natural way and purchased a $10 jar of cranberry juice and THAT cleared it up.
When I was being examined by the nurse then when Frank came in I told them that I always get UTIs from stress. I felt neither heard me. They just continued by telling me that I should see a gynecologist or urologist if this persists.
For some reason they avoided addressing my comment about the stress and that bothered me.
I give them 3 stars because the wait was not long at all and they did ok taking care of me.
Between the Cottage care debacle and Dignity I ended spending $354 with the copay and the antibiotics.
The cranberry juice was just $10. Shoulda gone that route in the first place.

The doctor did not listen to me at all. She came in with a diagnosis in mind and was very condescending when I tried to explain why I thought it was something different.
