MinuteClinic

On 01/13/2014 I went into the Minute Clinic at 4990 NE Vivion Rd. In KCMO. All I heard was the need to stop smoking. They gave me cough pills and inhaler and said if you dont fell better you need to go to the emergency room. I needed antibiotics, not cough pills and they would not give any. Didn't receive any value and care from Minute Clinic but yet they want their money. The next day on 01/14/2014 I felt worse now dealing with this crud for a week (7 days) now. Called Minute Clinic back and was told that I needed to be seen by them again and IF the nurse practitioner thinks antibiotics are useful then they will be given. Of course at the cost of another visit fee, No reduced rate and of course not for free. So I decided to go to the regular doctor where they told me I DIDN'T need what Minute Clinic prescribed and issued an antibiotic to me and of course the rest of the mumbo - jumbo stuff like get rest, plenty of fluids, ect. So lets talk population control if seen by Minuite Clinic that and all the out of pocket expenses of having to go to a real doctor meaning I have a bill for Minute Clinic and a bill for the doctors office for the same thing. MY recommendation is to see Dr. Office or Veterinarian first, before thinking about the money sucking Corporation of Minute Clinic.
