CVS Minute clinic WHAT A SCAM ! new palestine Indiana

Minute clinic has to be the biggest ripoff ! I went to the one in our hometown with what I thought was a sinus infection or head cold, I had been there once before and should've listen to myself and not went back, but my Dr. was not in, the first time I went I wanted a z-pac and the nurse practioner said that was not neccessary and prescibed amoxicillin, that was a joke, two weeks later I'm back at my regular Dr. getting a z-pac not only that but they charged me more then what my insurance said it would be and when I argued with them they said if I didn't pay it then it would be turned over to collections, unfortunately my insurance company was no help and I had to pay it.

So round two, I go in an tell the lady I do not want amoxicillin, it does not work for me, she states " I was not going to give you amoxicillin" she states I have a sinus infection and says she is giving me augmitten, (not sure of my spelling) I get ready to pay and she said that would be $25.00 I told her my ins. states since it is a retail clinic that on my card it says copay of $10.00 she says oh is that what RC stands for and and laughs, she said well then give me $10.00 and if is more they will bill you, well sure enough, I get a bill for the other $15.00, I call and get some rude person who says I need to argue with my ins. co. because they charge an office call which is 25.00 I told her unless she hasn't noticed they are a retail clinic located in a retail store, not a DR. office, she was rude and told me they have a contract mith my ins. co. and are allowed to charge that. I have not been ble to talk to my ins. co. yet but at this point I'm sure they will turn me over to collections if I don't pay.

Oh and best thing of it all? she got me again, I got home an opened up my prescription and she gave me amoxicillin! after I ask her not to and she said she wasn't going to, what she gave me was amoxicillin with other stuff added to it so she out right lied!

Lesson for the day? unless you are prepared to pay out the wah zoo, and not get treated correctly, no matter what your ins. states, do not go there!
