Optum Surgical Center — Attraction in Long Beach

First and foremost I should be getting paid for giving ONE start ⭐️. I am very disappointed for the way that my visit last Friday at 2:00 pm was handled. Unfortunately every year at the of winter season entering to spring I always get very ill, starting with mild soar throat and if I don’t get medications my illness will continue with fever. On Friday April 2, 2021. I stopped by at Optum Urgent care because I started with mild soar throat for a couple of days, and for my surprise because I stated that I have only a soar throat for a couple a days the female “Medical Assistant” that is seating at the front door, due to her lack of information and ignorance of her of not knowing the difference between Flue symptoms, Cold symptoms and COVID-19 symptoms, out of the question she decided to send me to the tent were Covid-19 suspect are sent to be evaluated.

Lakesha the LAZY door monitor was so distraught she had to get out of her chair to come to the door for us. I don't think she was prepared to be called out on rolling her eyes, which my elderly mother and I observed her do as she came to the door.

I was told to wait in the car, but requested to be with my mother during her visit. There was another couple in the lobby and I inquired why it was okay for them and not us. I was told that I wasn't allowed to speak to other patients, I can respect that. However, I was not impressed with her lack of respect for our situation. If you open the door to an Urgent Care you represent the Urgent Care and all of the staff. First impressions are important and Lakesha fell flat. I wish her far better care should she...
