Unfortunately, my husband was seen by Dr. Melvin Jackson tonight. His complaint was a sore throat, cough, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. My husband has asthma and requested a steroid since he's now beginning to have difficulty breathing. However, Dr. Jackson declined to give him medication for his inflammation and instead gave him a Z-Pak and cough medicine. Yes, a cough medicine to treat the symptoms, rather than the cause. Well, giving Dr. Jackson the benefit of the doubt, I returned to the med stop with my husb... read more

I was diagnosed w/ viral gastroenteritis I acquired while conducting research on Sapelo Island. I had a headache, diarrhea, elevated blood pressure, and allergy-like symptoms for two days. I was given a shot of benadryl and sent on my way. They didn't treat my headache because "there's too much drug abuse out there." I have no history of drug abuse, and I seriously doubt people are abusing imitrex. They also said I need to speak with my primary care dr to "find out why I'm getting headaches in the first place." Seriously!? T... read more

We saw Dr. Espinoza, and he was great. Caring, funny, and was very gentle with my son. Highly recommend them. ����

I would never ever go to this place again. I went to them after going to the Er and sitting for six hours Saturday. I would rather wait six hours than have someone be mean to my two year old son because he was crying. The Medical asst was getting his pulse and he was pulling away so she decided to stick her fake nails in his arm to hold his arm down.He had nail marks on his wrist. Sheleft out my son was playing with the stool and Dr. Jackson came in and snatched the stool from him and said put him up here. I sat him up there... read more

UNPROFESSIONAL! I GOT SEEN FOR LESS THAN TWO MINUTES, AND GOT PRESCRIBED MEDICINE THAT I HAVE BEEN PRESCRIBED BEFORE, THAT DOESNT WORK. HE LOOKED AT ME LIKE I WAS A JUNKY AND GOT RUDE WITH ME WHEN I TOLD HIM WHAT MY OTHER DR. PRESCRIBED ME. IN OUR BRIEF 2MIN VISIT HE TALKED DOWN TO ME. I DON'T PRESCRIBE THOSE KIND OF MEDICINES TO YOUR KIND OF PEOPLE, I HAD TO WALK OUT OF THE OFFICE, BECAUSE I WAS AFFRAID I MIGHT HAVE DONE SOMETHING TO HIM. I'M IN PAIN ALL THE TIME, FROM A AUTOMOTIVE ACCIDENT, AND A GUNSHOT WOUND, AND ITS SOM... read more

Go here if you don't mind being charged nearly $300 for nothing. A "Dr" saw me for no more than 5 minutes and didn't do anything other than give me a prescription that I couldn't even use. Also, they've recently TRIPLED their fees, but I wasn't warned of this BEFORE receiving treatment....only when the bill arrived in the mail a couple of days ago. A few weeks after this visit, I went to one of the other Houston Healthcare Med Stops for a respiratory infection, and I was told of the recent TRIPLING of their fees at the front... read more

The staff in the office was great but the poor review comes from the doctor. My husband always makes fun of me for using WebMD as my doctor. But the when push comes to shove I go to the doctor when things are bad and with my family doctor I trust his opinion over what I have self-diagnosed through Web MD. However, when I took my husband to the MedStop (because it was the weekend) with an EXTREMELY red eye I was pretty confident it was not pink eye as it never had any kind pus or liquid coming out of it. (which I feel like is... read more
