Atrocious, would not recommend. I went in for a walk-in appointment last week, and it was absolutely dreadful. The wait times were unreasonable and the front desks organization in regards to the order patients get served was almost nonexistent. Once in, you wait a few hours more just to listen to staff gossip instead of doing their jobs? The doctor herself was attentive and had decent bedside manner but ended up sending the prescription to the wrong pharmacy. I went back in today to pick up the prescription and the woman at the pharmacy counter was rude. Overall, a miserable experience and Ill likely never go back.Edit: Its been about three weeks now and I still dont have some lab results back. I suspect the test was straight up lost, and the message Ive left on the online patient portal has been completely ignored. Incredibly unprofessional.

My elderly mother is a patient here. Theyve always been welcoming from the front counter, the nurses and Dr. Potter. Faster than my Meritas doctors office that I spend almost 2 hours overall in one visit, sitting and waiting. My mom always feels cared and relieved after her Drs appointment at KC Care. We greatly appreciate it!

Ive been coming here for YEARS, atleast 10 years by now. This is my favorite clinic. They have been able to diagnose everything from my stomach tumor to a rash break out on my skin. I will forever support this clinic. I love them.

Called to confirm my appointment and the lady was so rude. Always sighing and talk down to me. I called to CONFIRM, not wanting to show up to a location change just for me to be in the wrong place. She basically said I was stupid.

I don’t know what I would do w/o this Clinic. They have been there for me when I had no where else for assistance in my health. The doctors and staff are amazing. In past years most all my life when I was employed with insurance I never had better care. Thank you for being here KC Clinic.

Great staff. Been an established patient for 2 years. Most PA and dr’s there are not looking down on you and alter the care they give due to addiction or mental health , disability ext... I also use the pharmacy there sometimes I get name brand medicine cheaper then at say CVS. Some of the tech or nurses assistant could be better trained in some basic medical operation of their equipment. Overall I love this place over others that discriminate. The walk-in process to get established in lengthy but after being established and regularly visits it goes quickly and they work with no insurance also Medicaid don’t know about other insurance.

By far the worst experience I ever had. Literally. I had 2 appointments and they were inaccurate both times. Even after going to a different physician, I ended up just switching hospitals. I don’t want to go into detail because it’s personal, but the fact that they prolonged my test results ruined my life!! If I was treated sooner I wouldn’t be in the position I am now.

Its a great healthcare place for anyone who does not have insurance, also a great place for homeless people to be able to obtain Quality Health Care service.

Review №14

Going to KC Care has been a nightmare. The only thing I can say in their defense is the problems may be because of a lack of funding. And if this is the reason why, I really hope they get the funding they need, because we need good public health services.However avoid if you can. My appointments have been missed/scheduled wrong regularly. My medications are rarely refilled on time and often sent to the wrong pharmacy. It is almost impossible to get a hold of my doctor and as a result I go without needed medications. At the time of this writing we are in the middle of a pandemic. But the problems existed long before this.

Review №15

Im very sympathetic to the fact that covid makes things difficult and everyone is just trying their best, except that this does NOT strike me as an organization that even comes close to trying its best. Their covid testing had a 7 day turnaround, which I would understand (lots of folks trying to get tested right now) except that basically everywhere else in town is doing it in 2-3 days, AND they never mentioned anywhere on their site that it would take this long. I only found out after driving to their pop-up testing center and getting the test done. A full week later when my results finally did come back, they didnt relate those results to me in a voicemail even though I filled out a form that quite directly said they should. Rather, they wanted me to call them back. When when I did take time out of my day to call them back, I was on hold for very extended periods and my calls consistently went to voicemail. Making someone wait an entire week to know their results and then making it as difficult as possible to get those results once they are known is exactly the kind of thing that makes people not bother getting tested.

I went here today and had a great experience. The staff was top notch from the receptionist, nurse, and doctor. From the moment I walked in I could tell this staff actually cares about their patients. Everyone genuinely seemed happy! I feel lucky to have health insurance and I’m glad this facility is here for the folks in our community who do not.

Had a couple negative experiences as a trans woman, but things have been getting better and easier. Staff is fun and professional and always help me with what I need even if we have trouble communicating at first we always figure it out and I leave feeling good. Very busy most of the time so waiting definitely sucks but as long as you have free time for a while after your scheduled visit everything will be fine.

Review №28

After calling 3 times and leaving a message to schedule an appointment they still have not returned a phone call. I saw a physician for a year and then that physician no longer practices there so now I have to go in as a new patient. It would have been nice if they would have called and let me know that the physician was leaving. If I ever have my phone call returned..

Review №29

The doctors and nurses are always very helpful. The front desk staff... not so much. Very rude, dismissive, condescending. Not pleasant to check in here.Also, watch your billing amounts. Every time I go, they send me a bill for what my insurance has already paid and claim they never received it. Once I call my insurance company and have them send over a copy of the explanation of benefits, magically they find the money. Very sketchy. The billing office has even told me my insurance paid them, then took the money back so it was my responsibility. Got my insurance on the phone, had them talk to them, amazingly they found an error in their system. Double check everything they charge you, otherwise you will get screwed.

Review №30

So I don’t have many options with my current insurance, I was basically forced to go here. I at one time long ago sought out mental health care here and it took them over a month to respond to my voicemail.In order for me to pick up a new primary at this place I had to go to open clinic, little did I know I’d wait 3 hours in the waiting room and then another hour in the exam room.My follow up appointment a month later, I got right in, but then once again waited 1.5 hours in the exam room.The doctor I’ve been seeing is not very friendly or personable, he seems cold and callus, but I suspect that this place is like this because it’s understaffed and just pumps people through without caring for its patients.I have had to reschedule my appointment today and have been waiting on the phone for over an hour. The mailbox is full so I can’t even leave a message!!The staff gossips in the hall ways and the waiting room is not the cleanest. Other wise staff is decently friendly unless it’s the scheduling girls you’re talking with.I don’t recommend this place if you don’t have to go here.

Review №31

I had a lapse in health care coverage and seeing the Dr/Nurses here made me really disappointed in the quality of care I had paid thousands of dollars for. Each practitioner genuinely cares for the holistic well-being of their patients. Each appointment I felt listened to that my concerns were taken seriously and that the treatment plans made sense for my lifestyle. The scheduling staff can be a little disorganized however hands down the best group of medical professionals volunteer their time here. Its an amazing community resource and deserves so much more attention for all the people that it helps.

Review №32

Id give 5 stars if the receptionists up front werent so rude, the doctors and nurses in the back are beyond what I expected. Theyre very kind and the doctors tàke their job very seriously. They go above and beyond to do everything to make sure you are comfortable and are understanding of treatment plans.

I called various times before to schedule an appointment for the first time, but not luck getting any assistance. I try today again, and the staff member provide me with a very low non helpful professional service. Her tone was rude and zero welcoming! If this is to get an appointment, I can’t imagine getting treatment in here. I decide it to go somewhere else.

Went in as a walk in on a walk in day. They scheduled people over my walk in appointment in jumped over me. Have been here for 3 hours now in still 9th on the list. I have watched this room full up and empty 4x since I been here with people just walking through the door. Mind you didnt take any of the 1st people who made it here before they opened at 1:30. People just walking in and walking getting called in going back. We are all walk ins at this point why you schedule someone over someone who was here before The girl that just left had been here since 10am in hadnt been seen. Asked for money back but the money she paid for her co-pays.

Do not trust your life to these people. I wasted YEARS trying to have these substandard failures help me with my blood pressure. It only went up and up and up. Then I went somewhere else and within a 2 visits my new place identified a genetic disorder that KC Poorcare Clinic missed repeatedly.KCCare clinic is a cabal of the worst minds and rejects.Do NOT trust that any of the rejects that work here. They are un-qualified to help.

This place is ghetto AF. The so called Doctors dont dress like doctors. I went in to get my hands looked at because I think I have arthritis. The doctor talked to me for a little bit and did one freaking test which was ridiculous. She told me put your hands together and tell me if you feel pain?. Like what? Im no doctor but that doesnt tell you if I have arthritis or not. She also said your hands dont look deformed ..from 6 feet away! What a joke.They did give me a blood test. I dont know why...its been a week and still havent heard anything about my results.The automated phone line is pointless. You just go in a endless loop. It just rings and repeats it self over and over.This happen to me at 9:30am on a Thursday.This place is pretty much a HIV clinic and if you want to get your moneys worth go somewhere else.

The doctors and nurses are awesome 5 ⭐️ the only problem I have is getting phone calls returned when you call and leave a message. I’ve called the pharmacy tech I have called the nurse to try to get some answers so I can get a prescription filled and haven’t received a phone call back and it’s been three days. And I’m out of my metformin.

Review №43

I was in 3 weeks and a day ago and still had not received my results. Today I finally got a call telling me my specimen was never even sent out. This is after weeks of calling and being told my specimen was sent to Truman for lab testing. Now Im being told that Truman never got my specimen and neither did Lab Core. Im coming on 2.5 months of dealing with this issue and I thought KC Care was actually going to help me. I specifically asked at my appointment if I needed to do anything else and they said No. They had the specimen they needed and would have the tests ran with that. They actually admitted that it sounds like someone on their end dropped the ball which is more than anything else theyve done for me over the past few weeks. Thanks KC Care.

I have nothing against this clinic about the clinics pediatric and regular walk in clinics are great it’s great thing that they’re doing for the committees around surrounding area but it’s a bad thing when they give my wife and my kids the runaround when clearly my kids are sick and I need to be seen right away and they’re told to go to one facility and I told her I’d go to another facility in the told they can’t walk in they have to make an appointmentThis is something that they have to work on

Review №47

I just called to get pricing on a tooth extraction, $75-$150 for a simple tooth extraction with no insurance, I thought this place was a sliding scale clinic based on income. When you make less than $1,000 a month with $780 rent+ everything else that costs in life, $75 seems a little ridiculous! Why cant I find someone to pull this darn tooth out for like $20 or less? Man, I dont even need any novocaine, just pull it out!Plus, the ladies I talked to on the phone were very rude and acted like they didnt wanna even answer my questions. Why do I even have to make an appointment just to know the actual cost of getting this tooth extracted? You should be able to provide me with that information over the phone; Im not gonna wait in a waiting room for 1-3 hours or more just to find out I cant afford to get the tooth extracted anyway, plus I dont need any evaluation or xrays, Ive already have had them done today somewhere else, I know what the problem is! I JUST NEED IT PULLED OUT! FOR A FAIR PRICE!

Avoid this place at all costs. I had an appointment here for 9:00 am and it is 10:00 am and have yet to be called. Lowest quality healthcare is provided here. Don’t go here just because this place accepts your insurance plan.Update: The registration team put me in as walk in appointment despite me having an appointment, causing the +1 hour wait.

I went to this place over a month and a half ago. Service took hours to get to the back and additional hours to get my services and results.

I was never able to even make an appointment here. I spent a whole day on the phone waiting for someone to answer. I was continually sent back to the main menu and had to go through it again numerous times for no one to ever answer. At one point I had cycled through the main menu and was waiting on hold so long they just hung up on me. I tried pressing 4 to speak to a person and had the same thing happen. After a full day of calling this place I never spoke to a single person and there is no option to leave a message and have them call you back. I ended up making an appointment with another clinic that had an online option for creating an appointment. I will never try to make another appointment here again, and even if I did try I wouldnt be able to!

Review №65

I am writing this as a public service announcement, in case anyone takes the time to read these reviews: I went to this clinic to ask questions about PrEP, the preventative medicine people can take to prevent HIV. I am a nurse, so I am always cautious about accidental needle sticks. When I found out that the medicine requires 3 month check ups, because of the possibility of liver toxicity, I decided the medicine was not for me. However, the nurse practitioner tried to pressure me into taking it, and when I stood up to move she stood in front of me to try and block my way until I agreed to take the medicine. She also insinuated that I would be irresponsible for not taking it--but she never asked if I already protect myself during sex by using condoms. She just presumed I engaged in unsafe sex. I just wanted information, and I left feeling frustrated that this person is coming in contact with people in the LGBTQ community. It is a shame that this is the major resource for free health care in the Kansas City area.

They had me waiting a very long time for my SCHEDULED exam. The receptionists even had others go back that came long after I did, then they realized they forgot me altogether. Then when I got a simple presrcription for birth control, even after I gave them the exact one I take, they messed it up. I had to bring it back and they sent it to WalMart and still sent the wrong order! It really couldnt have gotten any worse!

Review №70

So unresponsive and not there when you need them. I spent months contacting them for prescription refills, but they never responded to my requests. I even went personally to the clinic and they were of no help —“we will get back to you,” they said. So, I gave up, and had to rely on an old doctor from out of state. That’s a very irresponsible thing for them to do... Not going back there ever again.

Review №73

They never ever answer the phone or return your messages if the voicemail box isnt full that is (it usually is). I went to the clinic a couple of times for minor medical procedures which were good experiences and because I have very little I was seen for a $10 donation. I have long struggled with mental health problems so I decided to seek mental health services. I saw a psychiatric nurse practitioner multiple times for a $10 donation each time or so I thought. Months later I learned that they were sending bills to my parents house (I dont even know why they asked for that address or why they sent the bills there). So now I keep getting bills for services that I never agreed to pay for. Their billing company is worse than useless and offers no help at all. I call KC care clinic every time I get a bill (once a month for about a year) and no one EVER answers the phone at any extension. Every mail box I have found is usually full and if its not they still never return your call anyway. This place has caused me far more stress and anxiety than any help they provided me.
