I am very pleased with Concentra Medical Center in Akron, OH. I went to this particular place, based on a few positive reviews I found on this site and I wasn't disappointed!
The appointment was set up by my husband, he experience some trouble explaining to people at the reception that I don't need a full medical exam, just the vaccination chart (AOS from K-1), they seemed clueless, but once he got to talk with Dr. Benson, the conversation went smoothly, he was very helpful and quickly verified the fee (a reasonable $43).
On the appointment day, the receptionist struggled yet again to understand what I wanted so she made me fill out and sign a tone of forms necessary for the full exam. Once I told her I didn't need to undergo a medical exam, she said it would be the doctor that would make the final call... Luckily, once I was called by a nurse, after an initial vision and blood pressure tests, she called Dr Benson. He is such a nice and friendly person! He apologized at least twice that I had to complete so many useless forms and then quickly filled out my vaccination chart. Since it was the beginning of October he gave me a flu shot ($25) and afterwards, I was given a sealed envelop + a copy for my records.
A very nice experience once you get to talk to the right person. A piece of advice for everyone: make the reception staff call Dr. Benson immediately once you show up to avoid the paperwork .
