Samuel Dixon Family Health Center — Newhall

"I honestly wish I could give this place a Zero star. I went in to this place wanting to establish care and to get a TB test because my job required me to do so. The PA on staff, and the one that I had booked with belittled me, gaslit me, and treated me like I had no knowledge of my medical care. I will never be back to this place. I booked a regular physical and a TB test. They decided that they needed a bunch of additional tests One being a pregnancy test—they said it was “routine”. I refused the pregnancy test because I didn’t feel comfortable because of how hostile they were. I refused this in the past and other doctors offices, so I thought nothing of it and I didn’t think I was doing anything wrong. I was met with hostility, and a lecture from the PA on staff. She told me that the next visit I would have to provide a pregnancy test and additional tests. I have never in my life left a doctors office fuming Like I did. I have never felt so unheard and so belittled. As someone in the medical field, this is NOT a good example of the medical field."

"Please, do yourselves a favor, avoid this clinic. This clinic is not worth my time to even place comments., but I will in few words. It may take you 2 months to get an appointment, and after you do, most probably you won’t be seen by this doctor. His assistant would take your questions, have you wait at the waiting room while she gets response from the doctor to pass on to you. What a waist of time. And response is for me to go to an emergency room and lie to them about my issue…"

"All office workers have been very kind and helpful. Mary Overlander, the Nurse Practitioner, seems to sincerely care and has helped me move forward in my life. She's a gem. I've been to the office twice and found it to be clean and comfortable both times."

"Doctor’s are to busy trying to push the COVID vaccine to the point they can careless about any health concerns you bring to their attention. Instead of listening they tell you about your body and or get an attitude when you disagree with them. I also tried making an appointment for my kids back to school shots and was told they don’t have the vaccines needed and I needed to go to Walmart to get my kids school shots. But at the end of the call made sure to let me know they had the COVID vaccines available."

"The doctor here is one of the most attentive, thorough medical professionals I've come across in the last 15 years. The staff is friendly and always calls to let me know what's going on. Appointments are always on time. Feel comfortable and confident that I am in good hands whenever I come here."
