Worst Urgent Care Clinic in Amarillo, by far...... The staff is just like the previous review says. I don't know why they even take patients as painful as it seems for them to do anything that resembles help. They have the worst billing department possible. They wont send you a bill for a year then they will automatically send you to collections without even trying to call. They just don't care. They bill your insurance company about 2x what they charge you if you pay cash. Wow, now I can understand why health care is so screwed up. Don't waste your time here. Go to one of the other clinics and save yourself some grief and tons of aggravation..... Apparently it's not just the staff, the Dr that owns the facility seems to have a less than favorable standing.

BAD ATTITUDE. This urgent care is garbage. They are grouchy and think they're doing you favors. Their attitude was cold and uncaring. It's all about the money for them.

Go to the BSA urgent care on Bell.
