Glenside Medical Assoc

I asked them to call in a prescription at noon. The nurse said they would call it in.
I work out of town. I went to pick it up as soon as I got back into town. It wasn’t there.
I called Dr. Powers (on call Doctor). He said they don’t call in prescriptions after hours. To use something OTC. I told him I am allergic to the OTC medicines. He said you will need to go to another doctor or come in on Monday.
Very caring. I am so impressed. I also let him know that we would be changing doctors. This was a very simple request that should have been able to be completed without attitude.
DON’T GO HERE.
My husband, who has extremely high blood pressure, went to one of the doctors. His blood pressure, that day, was almost normal. The doctor wouldn’t even review his medicines. He said you’re normal today. You should be normal every day.
Again, very caring.
These people suck and should not even be licensed.

The waiting area is large and spread out– perfect for avoiding the people with the flu! Every staff member I encountered was friendly and professional. I plan on making this my PCP.

I have been seeing Dr. Powers at Glenside Medical for nearly 20 years. He is a wonderful PCP… honest and straightforward. He provides in my opinion) the best care I could hope for.
My husband has severely high cholesterol and trygliceride counts. after seeing an internist for years without any reduction in his numbers, I suggested he see Dr. Powers, once he did, with proper medication, his numbers dropped to well within the normal range and have been stabilized for years.
The support staff is knowledgeable, friendly and always willing to answer questions and provide information.

I don’t have a need for a primary care physician so I come here. I’ve been here like twice in 3 years. I like just being able to walk in without an appointment. The staff are professional and courteous. I’ve seen two different doctors both are very nice.
Plenty of parking and the wait wasn’t long at all.
I’ve even convinced my husband to go here and that was a miraculous feat since he doesn’t like going to the doctor for any reason.

Glenside Medical is my favorite doc in the box. The doctors are all nice, and you don’t have to make an appt… you just walk in. The open at 8am, take most kinds of insurance, and overall, they are the ultimate family practice– convenient, down to earth, and very business-​like.
Copays need to be paid up front, and when you walk in be sure to sign in in the book for the general practice…
After you sign in a nurse will call you and do an intake (be sure to bring your insurance card if you have one) and then they’ll call you when a doctor can see you.
I would imagine that this place is great for anyone who has older children who get the random cough/​cold/​fungus/​mono…
In my case, I’ve gone there to get treated for a persistant cold, some weird bug bite that wouldn’t go away, even anxiety. I saw Dr. White and Dr. Ashe, and they were all very professional and nice and helpful.
Their waiting room is pleasant, and I’ve never had to wait more than 20 minutes to see a doctor.
SCORE.
The only reason they get 4 stars instead of 5 is because they close at 5pm and aren’t open weekends, and that is definitely not convenient.
