At Careworks, our patients' satisfaction is very important to us. We are proud of the fact that 99% of our patients would recommend Careworks to family and friends.
Here's what some of our patients have to say about our service:
After a trying day with an ER visit for my 86 year old father, I came home to find my son in bed with a severe headache and extreme sinus pressure. I called Weis in Clarks Summit at 4:55 p.m., got the answering service and told them I was on my way and rushed to the clinic with my son. It was just after 5:00 pm and the nurse practitioner at the clinic, Dianne Hickock, waited for us. She was kind and thorough and prescribed medication for my son. Thank you, Dianne Hickok, for not refusing to treat my son so late in the day. Her thoughtfulness was greatly appreciated. Thanks for a job well-done! (10/8/12)
KS, Clarks Summit
I went to Careworks for a flu shot and found the nurse practitioner to be very friendly and very informative. This is the second time I have gone there for my shot and I am sure it will not be my last. (9/12/12)
DB, Clarks Summit
Careworks in Clarks Summit was clean and welcoming. The NP handled patients timely, which caused very little wait time. The service provided was thorough. I was very pleased and would recommend to my closest family and friends. Having the facility available on a Sunday was a relief and a great alternative, when our family doctor is unavailable. (10/18/12)
MC, Peckville
Careworks provider was efficient, concerned, confident and very helpful in finding what I needed. Clinic is very convenient to go to. (10/19/12)

Everyone was great! Staff very friendly and professional! (10/25/12)
SM, Dallas
The day of Hurricane Sandy I drove 40 minute to Careworks in Tannersville from New Jersey where Ken Dotson removed a tick from my back. He prescribed antibiotics and gave me great information about ticks and bites. I now refer my neighbors to Careworks and one of them took their daughter to be seen. The only negative, was I paid my $20 co-pay, but did not receive a recipt. This is mostly my mistake, as Dr. Dotson was informing me about Lyme disease. Perhaps a receptionist is needed. (11/2/12)
DB, Tannersville
I appreciate the friendly service and that I was not kept waiting. (11/3/12)
DL, Scott Township
Very friendly and gave the flu shot very quickly. A very short wait and very convenient for me. (11/6/12)
MM, E. Stroudsburg
Very good healthcare near my home in Stroudsburg. (11/9/12)
AM Stroudsburg
This was a while ago, but Shara Albrich at the Weis in Schnecksville was the Best! I needed ear treatment between teaching classes, she was the first to set me right! Love the service! (1/11/12)
MB, Easton
Kenneth Dotson in Tannersville was the nicest, most thorough doctor. His bedside manner was awesome. He explained thing to me fully and was very knowledgeable. He called in my prescription and everything. He is wonderful. Thank you. (11/11/12)
HW, Tannersville
I really appreciate having the convenience of the location at Weis in Clarks Summit. Have a 6-month old sitting and waiting at a doctor’s office to be seen is not an option. Barb has attended to us on more than one occasion and she has always been professional yet personable and efficient. (11/12/12
JD, Clarks Summit
Thank you so much! I am very relieved to get attention closer to my home. It is the best thing ever. It is great service and can be seen sooner. I am happy with the caring doctor and the nurse is and concerned for my health issues. (11/15/12)
SR, Danville
Barb was extremely informative and helpful. She went above and beyond. She was kind and not rushed or hurried. (11/16/12)
AM, Clarks Summit
My 10 year old son required stitches to fix a cut on his hand. The care he received here in Mountain Top was excellent! We have visited nights and weekends 3 previous times in the past 6 months and received prompt and professional care each time. Thank you for providing this facility and quality staff in Mountain Top. (11/18/12)
DS, Mountain Top
Good experience. Waiting room is too small and privacy issues between the receptionist desk when checking in is too close to patients waiting to be seen. RT, Teresa, is great and very helpful. The nurse and PA are very helpful and kind. Need to coordinate later pharmacy hours to match the late hours at the clinic. I could not get my prescription filled until Sunday morning, due to the pharmacy being closed on Saturday evening. Experience was good overall, just a few things to work on if possible? Thanks. (11/19/12)
DP, Danville
Prompt and courteous reception and reasonably efficient process. Deb Nallo, NP was excellent. She was professional, compassionate and helpful. There was another Deb at this facility who was also helpful and friendly. (11/26/12)
WK, Dallas
Dianne Hickok has always taken care of me. She greets you with a smile and kind words. She is efficient and very thorough. (11/27/12)

Clinic is very efficient, friendly, not a long wait. I felt confident on medical diagnosis and medicine prescribed. (11/27/12)
NR, Danville
The day before Thanksgiving I had the symptoms of a bladder infection and I knew making an appointment with my PCP was next to impossible. I did not want to compete with a crowded emergency room, so I went to Careworks in Danville. I had a wonderful experience. I did not have to wait to see a medical professional. My symptoms proved to be an infection and I was on my way to the pharmacy. I didn’t have trouble finding a parking place either. (11/27/12)
RL, Danville
Excellent service and care! My primary physician was out of the flu vaccine. My children and I were able to come to Careworks in Danville, at our convenience and receive the flu vaccine. This a great service to provide to children as pharmacies will not administer the flu vaccine to anyone under 18. My children both have asthma and would not have received the flu vaccine this year if it was not provided by Careworks. Thank you! (11/27/12)
TD, Shickshinny
I was extremely satisfied with your service. It was quick, personal and caring. I was seen, diagnosed, and out within ½ hour, what a change from the ER. I work and it was nice that on a Sunday morning, my only morning off, I was sick to have this available. Thank you and I will use your services in the future. (12/4/12)
ES, Danville
The staff at Careworks were all courteous, efficient and very friendly. The facility was clean and the staff professional. (12/6/12)
CC, Danville
This was my first time using Careworks and I enjoyed the short wait time. This was a very friendly group of girls and the young blonde nurse was very nice, I enjoyed talking with her. Also, it was a very clean atmosphere. I will highly recommend to everyone I see! (12/6/12)
DF, Watsontown
Very pleased with the care I received. Waited 15 minutes to be seen, but was taken care of once they got to me. I enjoy the ability to walk-in without an appointment. Also like the quiet waiting room and the nurse is very friendly. (12/14/12)
DF, Watsontown
I love the face that you have someone available seven days a week from 9 am – 9 pm. It makes it easy and less stressful when you are not feeling well. The wait isn’t long either. (12/15/12)
IS, Kingsley
Everyone was very kind and friendly. I was impressed with the thoroughness of all the staff. I will definitely use this facility again. (12/15/12)
MG, Danville
I was seen by Jyoti Mittal, PA-C. After getting a flu shot at Knapper Clinic, I got flu like symptoms and then a severe bladder infection. Upon completion of my visit to Careworks, there were no pharmacies open and I had to wait until Sunday morning to have the prescription filled. I realize and was told that sometime in the future Weis Markets will match their pharmacy hours with Careworks – smart move. The support staff at Careworks was efficient and friendly. Ms. Mittal was very hard to understand. She did follow-up the next day with a call to me. (12/17/12)
FR, Northumberland
I have used you facility periodically for myself and my family. This staff is always courteous and I have never gone away disappointed. Thanks! (12/30/12)
JF, South Abington Township
The waiting room space is significantly undersized. Patient privacy at check-in cannot be maintained. The care provided was excellent. (1/1/13)
TW, Danville
I am a new resident to Danville. I saw your opening on TV. I saw Jyoti Mittal on 1/2/13. I was very impressed with the clinic, the check-in receptionist, the nurse who does the vitals and how clean the exam room was. Excellent medical care and diagnosis from Jyoti Mittal. (1/2/13)
JW, Danville
Our first experience with Geisinger Careworks in Danville was a positive one. Although we did not arrive until 7:20 pm, the staff was all very friendly. We were greeted by Teresa, who was very caring and helpful. Dr. Jessica Rigel was also very thorough and pleasant at the end of a really busy day. She took her time and answered all of our questions. This service is very convenient to people who cannot get to a doctor during normal business hours for minor illnesses. (1/4/13)
SD, Bloomsburg
This facility is a much needed addition to Geisinger Health care! For those of us who are employed in areas where it is next to impossible to take time off during regular business hours, it is appreciated greatly. Thank you! (1/6/13)
KR, Riverside
I took my son to Careworks in Danville on Sunday afternoon, January 6th. The wait time was a little over 2 ½ hours. The staff and the PA were friendly and the office is very clean. However, the wait time seems a little excessive. Perhaps a second physician could be on call during the busy times. (1/7/13)
DM, Danville
Careworks is great! I called several times to ask different questions about vaccines, pricing and the different procedures. Every time I called they were able to help me. Mary is very nice. She did my physical along with my TB testing. The lady assisting her was very nice and friendly. The services are great, along with great pricing. I will definitely come back again (A+), to Careworks at Weis inTannersville. (1/7/13)
FK, Tannersville
I am so thankful that this clinic is available. It is so convenient for working families and the staff couldn’t be more professional and friendly. (1/10/13)
TC, Clarks Summit
This was my first visit to Careworks, where I was accepted very well by the two ladies at the front desk and Dr. Jyoti Mittal. Dr. Mittal understood my problems, treated here and then referred me to the ER. She is a great doctor and I would recommend her to any of my friends. I hope these people know how much I thank them for all their services. Please thank the Careworks staff for me. They made my visit a good one there. (1/15/13)
JW, Danville
Kenneth Dotson, PA-C was outstanding! He made me feel very comfortable and he did a great job giving me an injection. He is very pleasant and knowledgeable.
We were very, very satisfied with the way I was treated. PA, Torres was very professional, while being kind and considerate. (3/13/12)
CF, Bartonsville
Very fast and good service. Will come back again if needed. (3/17/12)
RK, Drums
The Careworks Clinic I visited was in Stroudsburg. Ramon Torres, PA-C was very professional. He made my daughter and I feel comfortable. My daughter is only 6 years old and visiting a doctor’s office can be difficult. I appreciated his bedside manner. He was also very thorough, addressed all of my daughter’s symptoms and suggested excellent aftercare advice. (3/20/12)
MO, Bushkill
This was my first visit to your facility and I was very impressed with the large parking area, the building itself and how beautiful it was inside. The people in charge were very polite and accommodating. I was surprised at how many exam rooms there were. The nurse and doctor were very nice and helpful. All together, my visit was great and I was well taken care of. (3/21/12)
JH, Hanover Township
Our provider, Lisa Wippel, was excellent! She saw my daughter in a timely manner. She was well organized, professional, friendly and overall just great! The only problem now is that my insurance no longer participates with Careworks. (3/22/12)
AE, Schnecksville
The staff at Careworks was courteous and helpful. They put my daughter at ease and made her feel comfortable. I will not hesitate to go there again, when care is needed for my family. (3/26/12)

Lisa Wippel was kind, professional, and prompt in her examination and diagnosis. She is an asset to the medical profession! (4/3/12)
DL, Orefield
I was very pleased with the care I received from Careworks nurse, Ruth Butrej. I must admit that I was skeptical about going to Careworks because of my health history. I was very leery that they did not know my history. Ruth made me feel comfortable and relaxed, she covered all my history with me, than she began to do the examination. I am feeling better now and did not have to wait to get an appointment. Keep up the good work. I will be using your services if needed in the future. (4/7/12)
GM, Richfield PA
Friendly, fast, and convenient. Used Careworks for my daughter’s license physical and it was less expensive than her pediatrician, despite insurance coverage. When I needed a second form filled out, Careworks did it for $10! Would highly recommend to others and I am an RN! (4/8/12)
MM, Allentown
I have been using Careworks for urgent care since they opened in Stroudsburg. Besides the convenience, I find the staff both caring and very helpful! (4/13/12)

This was my first time coming to Careworks. I am so thankful to have a care center to go to when my family doctor is unavailable. My experience was very good. Barbara Bier was very nice and compassionate. She really took the time to thoroughly check me out and was very informative with her health care advice. I felt comfortable and relieved knowing everything was going to be ok. I am a health care professional and I am very pleased with your service. (4/21/12)
KH, Lehighton

NB, Plymouth
In February of 2012, I went to your Stroudsburg site and was treated for bronchitis. In April, I went to your Tannersville site. I received wonderful service each time I have gone to the Careworks clinics. I am very comfortable and confident with the care I have received from K. Dotson, PA. The hours are convenient and I do not mind if I have to wait, as I know I will receive good service and attention to my needs. Thank you for having very professional and thorough employees. They are good representatives of Geisinger and Careworks. (5/2/12)

CO, East Stroudsburg
When my child develops problems during off hours of my pediatrician’s office, Careworks is the best choice. Although I must travel quite a distance to the Weis Center in Clarks Summit, it is worth it’s weight in gold, so I do not have to wait in an ER. I wish there was a Geisinger Clinic closer to my home area (Carbondale, Honesdale or Forest City). (7/6/12)
JE, Uniondale
My first experience with this service was 2 years ago for the shingles vaccination. I have since switched to Geisinger Health Care as my Medicare Advantage Plan. I was extremely pleased with the prompt, courteous and thorough treatment I received at Careworks. No Hassle getting or waiting for an appointment. No long wait in a doctor’s office. I will use your service again in the future for acute illnesses. Thank you Careworks. (7/21/12
MR, Allentown
Convenience of services all in one location. I was examined by a PA-C and an x-ray was performed in a 1 ½ hour visit. I felt I was in good hands and was valued as an important patient. The PA was thorough and reassuring! Great service by all!! (7/26/12)

NH, Stroudsburg
I visited the Selinsgrove satellite clinic on 8/20/12. Lisa Kobelis was very sympathetic to my earache. She was very professional and listened as I explained. I had a very thorough exam. She forwarded a prescription to my pharmacy, with the advice that if I did not see improvement by Friday to call my family doctor. (8/20/12)

TN, Whitehall
I am an over the road truck driver and am away from home 3 – 5 weeks at a time. When I developed symptoms to uncomfortable to ignore, I had to seek medical attention away from home. I obtained this provider info from my insurance company and apprehensively sought medical attention. I was pleasantly surprised. The office staff and Joanne Panisak were wonderful. They were all warm and friendly without being overly intrusive by demanding a long detailed health history for an acute illness. Thank you so much. I will certainly refer fellow drivers to the Mountain Top location. (7/28/12)

Having someone other than the provider do the paperwork would be smart, but Ms. Anuszewski was great! (9/9/12)

Ramon Torres, the provider at the 9th Street Weis Market in Stroudsburg has a wonderful, easy-going, relaxed way about making his patients feel comfortable. I’m very grateful this facility exists and is open seven days a week. It seems more and more that my GP is not available when I need him. Why wait to be treated if it isn’t necessary? (10/8/12)
CZ, Stroudsburg
We were very, very satisfied with the way I was treated. PA, Torres was very professional, while being kind and considerate. (3/13/12)

PG, Paradise Valley
Very organized and efficient. No wasted time, professional in every way. Would go again if necessary. Being in the medical profession for many years, I was impressed. (11/7/11)
PF, Shavertown
I occasionally have to take my daughter to the doctor late in the day, if I don’t want to wait until the next morning. I go to the Weis Market in Dorneyville, PA. Dorothy Wheaton is the nicest and best, comforting PA. I am very happy she is there, when I need her. I hope you are very good to her, because I really appreciate that she is there when I need her. Thank you.

Lisa Wippel at the Careworks in Schnecksville was very courteous and efficient. I highly recommend her. (11/18/11)
CD, Orefield PA
I visited Careworks for the first time on Saturday, November 19, 2011. The staff was outstanding. The provider, Lindsey, took such good care of my four year old son, doing everything possible to make him comfortable. They were wonderful. I felt very relaxed and comfortable there. I would definitely recommend this facility to everyone. (11/20/11)
SB, Nanticoke
I believe my visit was treated very professionally. The provider, Mary, was very concerned and informative. This is a great location. I will definitely come back here. One-on-one care and very professional. It is very hard to make appointments for your schedule – here I just walked in. Keep this program going. I will recommend to all of my friends. (11/25/11)
KK, Stroudsburg
I used the Careworks clinic in Tannersville on Saturday, November 26th. I was seen promptly by Ken Dotson, PA-C, who was very professional, personable, and who quickly diagnosed my sinusitis and pharyngitis. I had never used a walk-in clinic such as this before, but would recommend it highly as affordable, convenient, and professional service for healthcare. (11/26/11)
EO, East Stroudsburg
I was very please with the service, in and out within 20 minutes. Shara was pleasant and professional. I will use your services again, if needed. (11/30/11
CR, Allentown
Just want to comment on how wonderful our visit at the Schnecksville Careworks was. We took our 4 yr old and 6 yr old to see Shara Albrich and both my husband and I were amazed at how well she was with the kids. My husband and I agreed that she was better with our kids than the pediatrician we see. She effectively used fun during her examination of them and won us over (and the kids too)! (11/30/11)
TL, Walnutport
Very pleased! I was taken care of in a timely manner. The provider carefully listened to all of my complaints and gave me the appropriate prescriptions and recommendations. I have been there before and I would definitely go back if needed. (12/2/11)
PL, Stroudsburg
I had a great experience. Ashley was professional and very friendly. She took her time with me and made me feel very comfortable. I only waited about 20 minutes to be seen and was back at work in an hour. I will definitely return to Careworks! (12/6/11)
TR, Bethlehem
Barb was timely, thorough and most helpful. I was treated professionally and capably. Even if the removal of ear wax had been unsuccessful, I would still feel the same. She shared a confidence in her ability and had a positive approach. (12/7/11)
HK, Allentown
The service is absolutely convenient, quick and friendly. Extremely convenient, especially considering they are open on weekends. This place is wonderful. I am so glad I found it. Best decision I have made medically in a long time. Thank you Careworks! I feel as though communities need more places like this one. (12/7/11)
SB, Allentown
I have always been treated well and would recommend Careworks. The provider on duty calls me about tests that were done and with the results.
(12/9/11)
SK, Cresco
The people I saw on Saturday were caring and considerate of my pain and took very good care of me. They were also polite and friendly to me. I would highly recommend the Dallas Clinic to anyone! (12/10/11)
JD, Harveys Lake
I have been to Careworks three times and was pleasantly surprised each time at the ease, convenience, no wait, and the professionalism. They accepted my insurance and co-pay. I went on a Sunday, received medication and was feeling better by Monday. The Careworks in Clarks Summit at Weis Supermarket was sparkling clean. Being in an atmosphere, different from the doctor’s office, I felt a lot calmer. Special thanks to Lori and Dianne, the CRNPs, for their caring and expertise. (12/11/11)
SB, Clarks Summit
Dianne Hickok has always been pleasant. She greets you with a smile and is very courteous. We discussed my trip to Haiti and she answered any concerns I had. (12/12/11)
DC, Greenfield Township
This is the second time I have been to Careworks. I walked right in. Diane Whitcomb was very pleasant and informative. She took me around and suggested my over the counter medicines. Great place and great people. (12/15/11)
KK, Stroudsburg
I was very pleased with the service and convenience at the Weis Market. Your nurses are the best. Thank you. (12/15/11)

LT, Dallas
I liked the convenience of the After Hours Clinic. (12/24/11)
CI, Luzerne
Everyone treated me very nice and the building is beautiful. I would recommend it to my friends.
DC, Shavertown
Easily accessible, friendly, professional, organized. Provider explained every process of the exam and medications. (12/28/11)
ST, Selinsgrove
The service was excellent! Particularly, because of Shara Albrich, the PA, who treated me. She is a five-star rating in my book. Only one recommendation, post hours on the website when office is closed for lunch. I arrived at 2 pm only to find the office closed until 3 pm. (1/1/12)
TJ, Quakertown
I was out of town during the holidays, when I got sick. Dr. Dotson in the Careworks clinic in Tannersville was very helpful. He is knowledgeable, has a pleasant disposition and took his time with each patient. Top notch service from a caring doctor! (1/2/12)
MN, Hummelstown
Excellent service. Dr. Kenneth Dotson was very helpful and very knowledgeable. We were very impressed with the caring bedside manner he exhibited.
(1/10/12)
It was great. I was seen quickly and began my medication right away. As a mom of eight, I don’t always have the time to rush to the doctor’s during normal business hours. Being able to be seen on a Friday night instead of waiting all weekend is a plus. Staff is very nice too! (1/10/12)
BC, East Stroudsburg
I was very pleased with my care. I would like to see a Careworks open up at the Weis in Hamlin, PA. We are in desperate need in the Hamlin area for more convenient healthcare. (1/15/12)
GZ, Jefferson Township
Geisinger Careworks After-Hours Care is the greatest thing since sliced bread. I work 12 hour swing shifts and am a single mother. It is difficult to call and get urgent appointments set up on my schedule. This is very convenient for me. My daughter was seen by Robert Emery. He was wonderful with her and spent time talking with her, as well as with me. The medical field should have more people like Robert Emery. Thank you!! (1/20/12)
CG, Dallas
I visited the Careworks facility in Tannersville, PA on August 1, 2011. On 7/31 I developed what I thought was water in my ear, after jumping into a pool and I could not hear from one side. The next day it was no better and I decided to seek treatment. I was visiting here on vacation and was hesitant about receiving any treatment away from home. I received wonderful care at the Careworks facilty from Ken Dotson, PA-C. Mr. Dotson explained everything he was doing in my treatment. I would recommend his services to my friends at the resort. Thank you Careworks and Mr. Dotson! (8/23/11)
LR, Piscataway, NJ
Very pleasant experience. Very fast and professional. I will return and will refer others to Careworks. Thank you! (8/27/11)
JP, Schnecksville
On August 26, 2011, my doctor cancelled my appointment and I knew I was sick. I went to Careworks in Clarks Summit and was treated by Lori Petrowski, CRNP. She was the prettiest and kindest patient care provider I have ever been around. Thank you Careworks and CRNP, Lori Petrowski. (8/27/11)
CG, Dickson City
I was given a detailed explanation for my problem and I really appreciate the time allotted me. (8/29/11)
CA, Peckville
I love Careworks! I appreciate very much the way I was treated by the provider. She was very polite, hardworking and welcoming. She was very patient and took the time to answer all my questions. I like the hours, the convenience of Sunday hours, it is not too expensive, and the location is very good. (8/29/11)
CT, Bethlehem
I was very impressed with my visit. Lisa really cares about the patients. This was my first time at Careworks. I respected the fact that Lisa did not generalize my symptoms, give me an antibiotic and send me on my way. I would trust her with anything. (9/3/11)
KK, Palmerton
P.A. was available in 10 minutes! She did a great job. (9/3/11)
BD, Coplay
Kenneth Dotson, PA was very professional, courteous and attentive. He listened to my complaints and provided great care. Would highly recommend. (6/27/11)
BM, Tannersville
Could not be any better! (9/9/11)
JW, Clarks Summit
I took my elderly mother to the CW clinic in Tannersville on 9/9/11. I have heard very positive feedback about this clinic and have to say it was even better than my expectations. We didn’t wait and the physician assistant, Mary, was very professional, very caring and very patient with us. She is an asset to your corporation. We will highly recommend her! (9/11/11)
LT, Tannersville
Excellent service. (9/20/11)
JM, South Abington Township
This was a great place to go for a non-emergency problem. The provider, Mary Krueger, was very helpful and professional. I like that they are open on Sunday also. (9/21/11)
SC, Stroudsburg
It’s nice to know there is a place to go to get help! Very sad that many in the medical community think you only get sick between the hours of 9:00 am and 5:00 pm. The emergency room is not the answer. Mark, at the Dallas After-Hours Clinic, was there and helped to relieve my problem – you are luck to have him! Good deeds never go unrewarded. (9/24/11)
SC, Dallas
My husband, daughter and I recently visited Careworks at Weis Market in Clarks Summit for flu shots. The physician assistant was extremely pleasant and very efficient. We will continue to use Careworks whenever we can. (9/29/11)
SC, Factoryville
I have had two visits here since we have moved from Texas! Both visits were awesome. We were treated so great. (10/3/11)
TM, Clarks Summit
Love the convenience, great caregiver. I will refer my family and friends. No lost time from work, open on Sundays, which is a plus due to doctors offices being closed, and no visit to the ER. Makes me feel better knowing medical help is not far away and most important it is open. (10/2/11)
MW, New Tripoli
My Careworks professional, Dianne at the Weis Market in Clarks Summit, was very professional and advised me on my cold and prescribed amoxicillin, which I am taking daily. (10/6/11)
BP, Waverly
I am so grateful having a Careworks Clinic near my home. My 5 year old daughter has been under the excellent care of Kenneth Dotson a number of times. With my work schedule, waiting for an appointment with her pediatrician is often impossible. Mr. Dotson is excellent with children and always provides the appropriate treatment. I would be lost without Careworks. (10/6/11)
JR, Tannersville
You guys always do great job. (10/9/11)
JF, Clarks Summit
I called Geisinger’s tele-nurse in Danville and she told me to go to Careworks in Dallas. I was in such pain from kidney stones and a terrific backache. Robert Emery was wonderful. A very kind and patient man, who x-rayed me and gave me medication for my pain. The nurses were wonderful and I found Careworks to be a better environment that the ER. I would go back there for anything when I can’t get my family physician. They were all just wonderful. The time I waited was not long. They took care of me right away, and of course, it’s a beautiful, bright new building. (10/11/11)
HM, Exeter
Great care! Everyone was very nice. I would go back again! (10/12/11)
RW, Harding PA
We had an emergency on a Sunday morning, which took us to the Dallas clinic. We were promptly treated and Mark Sutherland was kind enough to call our family doctor to explain his treatment. It was the best. Thank you! (10/13/11)
RH, Dallas PA
Careworks was terrific. My daughter had a very sore throat and her doctor was done for the day. I was able to have her seen within 30 minutes and got her started on antibiotics. This was much better than waiting another 24 hours. (10/17/11)
RB, Walnutport
Ramon Torres was my provider and he did an excellent job. He was very knowledgeable about a pre-employment test I needed and also gave his advice. He was professional, quick, and the waiting time to see him was minimal. The cost was affordable also. I recommend Ramon Torres and Careworks. (10/18/11)
LS, East Stroudsburg
You are wonderful! I was in and out in 15 minutes and got the perfect medication to make my sickness go away in no time. The personality of everyone there was fantastic and friendly. I will be seeing you again. Thanks a lot! 10/20/11
DC, Kunkletown
My experience with Careworks was a great one. Efficient and kind care. Not having insurance, I feel my care was well worth the $95. They also took the time to explain my blood work, so I could understand it. Thank you. (10/25/11)
BP, Stroudsburg
Thank you for providing a healthcare examination to me while I was on vacation and away from my usual health care providers. I was diagnosed with acute bronchitis and given a prescription, which helped me heal. Thank you again. (6/14/11)
JL, Pamona, NY
Convenient, fast, friendly, professional. (6/18/11)
CS, Allentown
The health services provided were thorough and professional. This is a great service to offer and we hope you continue. (6/11/11)
CB, East Stroudsburg
Very convenient (quick & easy); very courteous (Kenneth Dotson). Will definitely use service again and tell family/friends to do the same. (6/17/11)
KK, Reeders, PA
I am a visitor to your country and I visited Careworks, physician Kenneth Dotson, on 5/6/11 at 12:15 p.m. Even though there were many people in front of us, I was attended to in a reasonable time frame. The doctor was very thorough and friendly. I was given a prescription for my cough, cold, fever and throat infection. The cost of the visit and medication was quite affordable. Should I get ill again, I will indeed visit your clinic. I will pass out the cards to my friends and family. (6/20/11)
SK, Tannersville
It is very nice to have a place you can go when not able to reach your primary care doctor. We were taken care of right away on all four visits to your Weis office. Doctors were all nice. (6/12/11)
R & B J, Effort, PA
I visited your healthcare facility on June 22, 2011. Originally, I went to Pennant labs but they could not perform the procedure. However, in the future I will just go directly to the Weis Market where your lab is. A very friendly and professional woman named Dianne took care of me. The location is convenient, but I hope the hours of operation are too. I must check back about this. (6/23/11)
MG, Factoryville
They did an excellent job. We wish you would consider putting one out in the west-end area of Monroe County (Brodheadsville area). (6/17/11)
LA, Brodheadsville
The wait was long due to the influx of visitors for racing weekend, but the service was excellent. The nurse practitioner (Dorothy) took her time and listened before making her diagnosis and prescribing meds. I was visiting my daughter, who had just had a baby. We visit the are frequently and will use the care center again if necessary and have no hesitation in doing so. We live 600 miles distant, so our other resources would be the ER in E. Stroudsburg. (6/21/11)
KM, Cincinnati, OH
As always, I was very impressed with the service. My only concern is that wait times are long. Any need to expand?? (6/25/11)
SB, Allentown
I went to Careworks today to get my Hep B shot for my CNA courses and was seen by Ms. Ramona Chase. She did not act like I was another number for the day. She even took an interest in my daughter. She was very kind and provided me a lot of information regarding my classes and my future. She was interested in what I had to say. It was like I was having a conversation with my Grandma. I love the service I was given today. I would recommend Careworks to anyone in need of their services. I give them two thumbs up and to Ms. Ramona Chase, 5 stars. (6/26/11)
KE, Allentown
The visit to Careworks is very convenient when I could not be seen by my doctor at the time. The doctor, Shara Albrich, took care of my ear/nose infection very quickly. (6/28/11)
AM, Allentown
Ken Dotson at the Tannersville location is amazing. He is an excellent clinician and treats our family like we are long lost friends! My kids prefer to go to Ken rather than to their pediatrician!
MM
Pleasant experience, did not wait long. Both PAs were courteous, friendly & efficient. Convenience of this type of service is great. I didn’t have to wait for 3 more days to see my family doctor. Extra service of the direct e-mail of prescription to my pharmacy was another nice feature. (7/3/11)
TH, Allentown
The nurse Barbara Bier was professional and courteous. She has a beautiful personality. She was very knowledgeable and a caring person. She explained herself thoroughly. Careworks made an excellent choice in hiring a person with her qualities. I commend you. (7/7/11)
MG, Whitehall
I don’t believe I have the works to express my thanks to Ashley and Dorothy for their sincere kindness and compassion, along with being quite professional, as these women have given me. My doctors should take lessons from these ladies. I thank God for them. God bless! (7/8/11)
CS, Allentown
Both my husband and I received the Zostavax 10X1 injection for the prevention of shingles at the Careworks located at Weis in Schnecksville. The nurse, Lisa Wippel, was courteous and efficient and worked in a timely manner. We would recommend this to our friends. (7/8/11)
NZ, Kempton PA
Careworks walk-in clinic in Weis Market in Clarks Summit is very convenient and they do an excellent job for people. Thank you for this service in Clarks Summit. I hope to use this clinic for many years. (7/11/11)
GM, Waverly Township
Excellent, fast, professional, quality convenient care! Thanks, we will be back. (7/12/11)
KB, Allentown
Careworks provides the best care for whatever concerns I have. They are very professional and help provide the best service and care possible. I always feel at ease to ask questions and I know they are compassionate to my needs when I need a work physical or TB test. It is very convenient to access their services. It is also a very convenient location, very close to my house. I’ve been going there for over a year. (7/13/11)
SB, Slatington
I visited Careworks at the Selinsgrove Center, where I work. Ruth was friendly, efficient, and compassionate. It was so convenient. I only missed ¾ hour of work to be seen and then returned to work. I was treated for a sinus infection and am feeling so much better now! (2 days later) (7/14/11)
DM, Mifflinburg
I’ve had the need to visit your Careworks Clarks Summit, Pa location at least four times and come away not only feeling better but also knowing I was given sincere professional attention and treatment. I truly am so glad that your wonderful medical staff is there for all who are requiring medical attention. Thank you Geisinger, for your smart decision to locate there for us. I travel over 20 miles each way to get there, but it is so worth the time and visit. (8/1/11)
NB, Moscow
I had the pleasure to have Ken Dotson as my caregiver twice at Careworks. He is thoughtful, thorough, and a pleasure to talk with. I felt I was in very competent hands. (8/5/11)
RB, Tannersville
Lisa Wippel was awesome. I am an RN so I have higher expectations of a healthcare professional. She met all. I cannot endorse her more highly. (8/8/11)
CW, Schnecksville
What a relief that Careworks was able to administer my son’s football physical, a few days before double sessions started. I forgot to schedule with our family doctor and then could not be seen until the middle of October! It’s nice to know that Careworks works with busy families. Thank you! (8/10/11)
KC, Schnecksville
I was treated very well by the attendant present, who was a PA. Waiting time was very good, was diagnosed properly and given a prescription for medication that did the job it was supposed to do. This was my second visit and I was very satisfied both times. I would recommend anyone to this Careworks. (8/11/11)
MM, Mt. Pocono
Convenient, professional, economical (no need to run to various locations for shopping, medical care). The staff are always pleasant. (8/12/11)
RK, Schnecksville
I love the convenience of being able to get my shopping done, while waiting to be seen. The staff is always so nice and they answer any questions I have. This service is great for those “coming home from school” sick days. (8/15/11)
CP, Allentown
We visited your After Hours Clinic because our son missed the school physical for sports. Their family practitioner could not see him for another two weeks. The evening hours at the Dallas Clinic met our needs and our son had his physical done the next evening and was able to make their first football practice. Geisinger met this need for us with the After Hours Clinic. Thank you. (8/18/11)
WL, Dallas
It is my pleasure to inform you of the excellent manner in which I was treated by Ramon Torres, Jr. at the Stroudsburg Convenient Care Center. At the time of closing, he took care of my needs quietly and professionally. Thank you. (8/21/11)
Michael G. Tagliaferro, BartonsvilleThe doctor (provider) was professional and caring. I’m glad I went. (6/8/11)
CC, Stroudsburg
I was at the Careworks in Tannersville, PA on Monday with my daughter and she did really well thanks to Kenneth Dotson, PA-C. She is at that age where she gets scared about going and he made us feel very comfortable. He explained everything from fever to the strep rash on her chest and neck. Thanks to him she is feeling better. Hope to keep the great service up in the future! (6/8/11)
HW, Tannersville
I’ve gone up there in the past and service was good, but when I showed up there on Monday and Wednesday nights with both of my kids, the service was great. Dr. Kenneth Dotson went above and beyond on making both of my kids feel, on different nights, very comfortable. I will definitely be back in the near future with service like this. (6/10/11)
HW, Tannersville
I brought my son to the clinic on May 27, 2011 for a rash he had that was not going away. He saw Dr. Kenneth Dotson, who was so thorough, I was very happy! He was attentive and caring. I will definitely go back, especially if he is the Doctor providing care. He was informative as well, providing docs and websites for future questions and concerns, while not going past 20-25 minutes. He was wonderful! (6/1/11)
SB, Tannersville
The Careworks Clinic in Weis Markets, Clarks Summit, is very convenient and Dianne Hickok is a wonderful person. I have had excellent care by her and its good to know, when I have an emergency and I can’t get down to Dr. Gregory Benkovic in Danville that, I can count on Careworks in Clarks Summit. (6/12/11)
NK, Dickson City
I was very pleased with the care and treatment that I received at the Tannersville location. The doctor was very professional and was very pleasant. (6/17/11)
KG, Mt. Pocono
We have gotten many of our friends to go to Careworks and everyone thinks it is great. Every visit my family and I have made to Careworks has been positive. The staff there is efficient, professional, and competent. The trait I have witnessed in every PA is how personable and concerned they are. We’ve had experience with Diane, Ramon, Ken, Mary and one other woman (name?). They have all been accurate in their diagnosis and beyond kind in their manner. Thanks Careworks Clinic PAs. You are the best! (5/25/11)
KO, Stroudsburg
Owen was very well taken care of and I appreciate the care given to Owen. (5/27/11)
OG, Mt. Pocono
I was so happy and thankful to have the PA at Careworks near my home when I became ill recently. Shara Albrich, PA, saw me and was awesome. She is a great listener, diagnostician and practitioner. She treated me with compassion and kindness. I will never hesitate to return. Thank you, Shara. (5/26/11)
CW, Schnecksville
Careworks is a God send. Over a year, I visit Careworks to have wax removed from both ears. Whoever thought of Careworks in the grocery stores deserves a medal. I no longer have to go to the emergency room and wait and wait to be taken care of. I like not having to make an appointment. When all of a sudden you cannot hear, you want immediate attention. Careworks takes care of all the issues I have in regards to my medical attention. I am turning 65. I would like Careworks to accept Aetna insurance in the future. (6/4/11)
ER, Swiftwater
Very satisfied. (5/27/11)
ES, Clarks summit
Your facility was better than going to my own pediatrician. We waited about 45 minutes but there are times we have an appointment with our doctor and still have to wait over an hour. Your doctor’s were friendly and well informed. I felt very comfortable there. Thank you for your service. (6/6/11)
BC, Henryville
Kenneth Dotson was excellent. He was professional, caring and knowledgeable. I really can say my experience at Careworks was a pleasant one. Would recommend to anyone. (6/6/11)
DC, Tannersville
Very convenient, fast service and quality care. No appointment is necessary and I was able to get some shopping done. The nurse practitioners are very professional yet seem to care. (6/6/11)
TD, Schnecksville
Kenneth Dotson, PA-C, of Careworks, Rt. 611 Tannersville, PA, provided me with a quick, thorough, and professional examination, diagnosed and treated my problem aggressively and competently. I appreciated the level of treatment experience PA Dotson has. The cost of treatment was inexpensive and fair. The odd thing is that I was only exposed to Careworks because my doctor couldn’t accommodate me with an appointment on the day I needed to be treated. (5/20/11)
PO
I love my Careworks! Convenience of having the option to take my children to primary care provider or not depending on severity of illness in huge! Just wish you could go back to earlier hours in a.m. (5/25/11)
LS, Schnecksville
We had a pleasant timely visit. The doctor on staff was friendly and thorough and we didn’t wait long. (5/23/11)

ML, East Stroudsburg
Careworks is very convenient. The girls are wonderful and super friendly. My son and I both feel confident and comfortable using Careworks.

JB, Coplay
Re Ramon Torres, the most professional service I have seen. I appreciate the courtesy and time spent ensuring I understand what was going on with me. Felt like I was a patient and not just a number. Will refer my friends here in the future. Careworks is truly the most convenient healthcare system around. I love it. (5/2/11)
TK, Stroudsburg
My children have used the Careworks in Schnecksville on two occasions. My daughter, who is a recent college graduate and uninsured is seeking employment. She needed a physical for a job application and your reasonable prices allowed her to obtain one. The second time we used your services was for my son who had a severe case of poison. We received prompt, courteous service from your knowledgeable staff. Thank you for all you do. (5/911)
DF, Allentown
I visited Careworks in Clarks Summit, PA, on 5/11/11. Dianne Hickok took care of my medical problem. Dianne was very friendly and concerned with my condition. After following her orders, I still wasn’t feeling well and went back on 5/13/11 to see her. Dianne was very helpful in getting a doctor appointment the same day at my main health center to get my problem taken care of by a doctor. Dianne is a great asset to Careworks and should be recognized for her work efforts. Please let her know I appreciated her effort. (5/14/11)
CK, Dunmore

MD, Allentown
I found Careworks to be very convenient. There was no waiting, easy registration by phone. Women that took my info. was very kind and helpful in regards to my insurance. I found the doctor to be very knowledgeable and caring. Felt he gave thorough exam and prescribed right meds – felt better in a couple of days!! Would definitely go there again. (4/11/11)
DJ, Bartonsville
I am a student at the University of Scranton and Careworks made it very convenient for all of us to receive our vaccination for our service trip. I would like to thank you for being very helpful and making these accommodations for us. (4/11/11)
JL, Scranton, PA
Dr. Dotson was thorough, polite, caring, friendly. Seemed to care about his work and about me. Gave full explanations – would use this service again. I have used it before. All the doctors on staff are caring and friendly people. (4/13/11)
AM, Swiftwater
I have been to Careworks several times with my children. I find them very helpful. It is a convenient service. I like that there is no appointment needed.

Love it! Clean, fast, courteous. So much easier than getting an appt. at drs. And I can shop while I wait! (3/30/11)
AM, Tamiment
I was very happy to have Careworks take care of me. My family doctors were out of town and I needed antibiotics for an ear and throat infection. The fact that Careworks accepts both of my insurances is even better. (4/2/11)
PM, East Stroudsburg
Excellent work by Ramon Torres, Jr. Thank you. (3/27/11)
RR, E. Stroudsburg
When I appeared in the video aired at your Careworks office, little did I realize I would soon be a patient as well as a spokesperson! I received wonderful care from the attending physician, who was kind, caring and thorough in both examining me and explaining the required treatment. I wish we had a Careworks near my home! (4/3/11)
DB
First time visit on 3/30/11. Great service from PA, Kenneth Dotson! Did not wait long and I feel much better. Good information was given to me on my diagnosis: strep throat. (4/1/11)

My first time at a Careworks. Very positive experience. Diane Whitcomb was fast, thorough, and very professional. Would definitely come back if the need arose. (3/25/11)
KS, Stroudsburg
Dr. Diane Whitcomb is a very good practitioner and made me feel very comfortable--professional and knows her stuff. I am very pleased.(3/25/11)
JV, Stroudsburg
You are a lifesaver! Just knowing there is a place you can walk into and be seen by a doctor when you cannot get into see your regular doctor is a blessing. And, that you take insurance, is wonderful. (3/20/11)
MD, East Stroudsburg
The level of care is wonderful! (3/28/11)

DM, Slatington
The service was great. It was organized and the NP was professional and helpful. Took her time to ask questions and follow up. Would recommend service to anyone. Service was in Clarks Summit Weis. (3/19/11)
DS, Kingsley
I feel that I received excellent care during and after my visit to Careworks. I was unable to go to my family doctor when I woke up on a Sunday morning in a lot of discomfort so I was very grateful to have Careworks nearby. The healthcare provider called after a few days to see how I was doing and again later in the week when the lab test indicated I would be better served with a different antibiotic which I was promptly switched to. Keep up the great work! (3/16/11)
DF, Schnecksville
My kids are very comfortable going to Careworks in Tannersville and I am very satisfied with the visit every time we go. (3/19/11)
AS, Swiftwater
Needed a Hepatitis A shot for a mission trip. Anywhere else I checked it seemed to be a complicated process. Walked in—got shot—fast and easy. (3/17/11)
JM, Allentown
This service was excellent. Our vacation would have been ruined without your Careworks service. I could not stop talking about this service and how valuable it is. Thank you. (2/28/11)
AC, Bethpage, NY
Kenneth Dotson was at the Stroudsburg clinic when I went. It was my first time seeing him. He listened and asked lots of questions. I felt comfortable with his decisions and what he prescribed. Very professional. (2/25/11)
CL, Stroudsburg
Promp service; courteous and caring. This is the best attention I have received in a medical facility. Will visit again. Will tell my friends and family members. I want to thank Mary Krueger for her kindness. Very satisfied. (3/3/11)

Very happy with the way I was treated. Ken Dotson was very professional and has a great disposition. I was comfortable and pleased. Thank you. (3/1/11)
LC, Long Pond
I have used Careworks several times since it opened in the Stroudsburg Weis supermarket. I have only praise and good things to say about each visit. First of all, the wait times have been minimal, second, the staff is extremely polite and knowledgeable. All my questions and concerns are answered and satisfied. Best of all is the cost and the fact that if a prescription is needed the in-store pharmacy is right there. I’m glad to have Careworks in my neighborhood store. Thanks and keep up the good work. (3/3/11)
PS, Stroudsburg
During a visit to the Lehigh Valley from out of state, I required medical assistance. Lisa Wippel in your Schnecksville location provided me with care. She is an asset to Careworks. Lisa was professional and informative. I am grateful for the wonderful care Lisa provided to me.
BM, Florida
I was about 5 minutes late to have my PPD read; however, Barb Bier, CRNP, without hesitation opened the door and agreed to read the results. I am so appreciative because not only would I have had to pay another $20 to get a new one, also I would not have been able to start my new assignment on Monday. (3/6/11)
LMS, Allentown
Our visit to Careworks on a Saturday morning about 10:30 am was an excellent experience. The wait was about 20 min. and Lisa was polite, thorough and very professional. She addressed our needs and we were so very pleased. (3/6/11)
TB, Schnecksville
Ramon was wonderful, my daughter was checked in, examined, tested, records updated, prescription given, note for school in 30 minutes. This was so much better than waiting for our primary pediatrician and waiting 2 hours during regular hours the next day. I will refer as many people as possible. Thank you for the convenience and expertise. (2/22/11)
TJ B, Stroudsburg
I love Careworks! Convenient—very professional. A great idea to open a clinic in a very public location. Have never waited more than 20 minutes, considering no appointment—amazing! Nice to have nurse/PA staff who listens to what you have to say—unusual these days. No parking problem. (2/28/11)
JH, Allentown
The convenience of the office being opened on Sunday, 2/13/11, was a big help. My primary physician was not in his office—closed on Sunday—and I was sick and needed medical care, yet was not at a level I would consider an emergency. Dr. Torres was a great help. Thanks. (2/23/11)
PS, East Stroudsburg
Our family of four has used Careworks clinic in Stroudsburg at the Weis Market store for the past two to three years. We have been seen for our children’s sports physicals, ear infections, throat issues and other various illnesses. The wait has never been more than 30 minutes and the physicians have been pleasant and thorough. I never hesitate for us to go and recommend it to our family and friends. (2/23/11)
JC, Stroudsburg
Fast, caring service. Friendly and clean environment. Thank you.
DD, Stroudsburg
I needed to see a doctor on a Sunday because I had an earache overnight with head congestion. I had visited Careworks before so I knew I would be taken care of. I didn’t need to wait very long. Diane Whitcomb was very thorough and patient. Thank you for being here (only one mile from my house). (2/21/11)
DM, Stroudsburg
Very nice, very professional. Took good care of me and my needs. (2/21/11)
GI, Allentown
The service was excellent and very prompt. I stopped while working, so I appreciate that I was in and out very quickly. I will highly recommend your services. Thank you. (2/19/11)
MB, Allentown
We visited Careworks at our convenience in our Weis grocery to receive a flu shot for our 16-year-old son, Paul, in December and a sports physical in February. We find the physician assistants helpful and professional, and we appreciate being able to take care of well visits in our free time. Paul did not have to miss school or extra curricular events that change weekly, and we can fit these well visits around our work schedules. (2/20/11)
MLD, Stroudsburg
Dorothy at Careworks, Allentown, does a fabulous job with taking care of me. She was thorough and compassionate. Thank you, Dorothy. (1/25/11)
KH, Quakertown
First time I was to Careworks. Ken Dotson was very good and explained everything. I would recommend others to you. (1/22/11)
BS, Tannersville
My visit was very pleasant and convenient. This is the first time I visited for anything besides flu shots, and I was treated very well. I would recommend Careworks to anyone and would return myself. Thank you. (1/25/11)
SA, Schnecksville
Diane Hickok took excellent care of me when I went to Careworks Weis Market, Clarks Summit. (1/27/11)
NK, Clarks Summit
Careworks was quick, easy, affordable and convenient with hours on Sunday. Quicker than my regular doctor’s office. Will use in the future with sickness or health issues. (1/30/11)
KD, Mount Pocono
I am so thrilled that I found Careworks. I have used the Cedar Crest facility four times and I am very happy with the professional service and care given. My daughter needed to go back to college, and I knew there was no way she would get into her doctor. Within one hour, she was treated, medicines bought and off she went. What a huge worry off of my mind. Thank you. (2/11/11)
SB, Allentown
We are very pleased with Careworks since we are always treated very professionally and courteously. It is so nice to have such a facility that is located conveniently at our local Weis Market where we shop. (2/5/11)
M & J K, Schnecksville
The healthcare facility is excellent. I have used the services two times in just under one year. The staff was competent and made me feel at ease. This facility fills a void in Monroe County between the off hours PC and ER. (2/11/11)
SR, E. Stroudsburg
I was seen by Diane Whitcomb, CRNP, at the Stroudsburg location. She was very thorough and professional and was just what I needed on a Sunday while dealing with a sinus infection. I would certainly consider visiting this location again should the need arise. (2/7/11)
MC, Saylorsburg
Usually, I am uncomfortable at doctor visits; however, the PAC at Careworks (Lisa Wippel) was so nice that for the first time I was actually comfortable having my physical completed. This was the best experience I ever had at a doctor’s visit. I will definitely use this place in the future. Thank you.
MS
Prompt service. Kenneth Dotson was very professional and friendly. No nonsense healthcare. (2/2/11)
LF, Tannersville
This was my second visit to Careworks and I am very pleased with the service. The service was prompt and the nurse practitioner was very nice. I definitely will be using your facility as needed. (1/12/11)
SC
This was my first visit to your service, recommended by the Swiftwater PA Family Service. We were quite impressed with congeniality and service. Kenneth Dotson PA-C has the perfect personality to put a patient at ease. Also appreciate the convenience of service and time at your Tannersville location. (1/14/11)
DLW, Pocono Pines
I learned about Careworks from a client. Even though I have shopped in Weis, I did not see it. I went in and the doctor was over booked, but it was so conveniently located and easy to go in. I had no trouble going a third time at which time I had the PA to myself. I was pleased with his patience and thoughtfulness and willingness to answer my questions and concerns. I will recommend anyone. (1/14/11)
SL, Stroudsburg
Very convenient! Practically no waiting. Lisa Wippel was very nice. (1/20/11)
KK, Slatington
My primary care physician’s office was closed for the holiday weekend. My daughter had been to Careworks previously and said how nice everyone was. I was Ken’s first patient on Christmas Eve day. He was very professional and caring and also suffering from sinusitis. I will highly recommend Careworks to my friends, family and co-workers. (12/24/10)
RG, Tannersville
This was my second visit to Careworks, Clarks Summit. Your provider, Dianne Hickok, made it a very pleasant experience. I had blood work to check my cholesterol levels. She offered helpful tips/information to get my levels under control. I will definitely return here whenever I need lab work, etc. and have also recommended and told family and friends. I have saved over two hundred dollars on each of my last two visits and have printed results the next day compared to weeks when I had gone to the hospital. (1/5/11)
AH, Tunkhannock
I had a very pleasant experience. The nurse practitioner was very thorough and took her time to examine my child. I would return for further care and recommend to my friends/family. (12/26/10)
TH, Allentown
The care I received was excellent. Barb was extremely thorough and listened to all of my concerns. I had a minimal wait. The only change would be to have the person for the new patient telephone ask insurance by getting all info. I found out in the exam room that you did not except my insurance. (1/7/11)
NM, Allentown
I did not know about Careworks until my doctor’s nurse told me. I found it kind of nice Dorothy was professional and caring. Wait was long, price was ok. (1/20/11)
LM, Allentown
I have been to Careworks in Schnecksville a few times and have been treated by Lisa Wippel each time. Lisa exhibits the utmost in professionalism and is always very kind and thorough. Lisa listens to the patient and provides care accordingly. (12/31/10)
DZ, Allentown
Excellent facility. Simple, professional and extremely convenient. I will certainly use again and again. Dr. Wippel was friendly and professional. (1/11/11)
BS, New Tripoli
Wonderful caring people. We love this facility. (1/11/11)
GA, East Stroudsburg
I just want to say Careworks is awesome. I was in a lot of pain and I came in and I was seen and given an antibiotic and the physician that saw me was friendly and very caring. (1/10/11)
PF, Dalton
Aside from the long wait, I was very pleased with the services provided to me. The physician assistant was very professional, prompt and helpful. He was able to prescribe three medications, all of which I felt better just after the first dose. My prescriptions were filled at the same facility (Weis food store). (1/11/11)
KC, Stroudsburg
We are very glad to have Careworks in the Weis Market in Dornyville. Their system of using pagers so you can continue shopping instead of having to sit and wait is very convenient. We are also very glad they would be giving flu shots all during the season and not just on certain days.(12/17/10)
IL, Allentown
My second visit to Careworks in two years. Janelle Sharma was great, very courteous and listened to what I had to say. I didn’t feel rushed. She took her time with me and was very concerned about my high blood pressure which I was not there for. I had a sore throat and chills. She was able to convince me that I needed to start to see a family doctor regularly—even referred me to a practice at Lehigh Valley Health Network. (12/20/10)
KG, Coplay
We have been coming to Careworks for a few years and have had a positive experience every time. The staff is very helpful and friendly. There is usually never a wait and if there is, it isn’t long. We will continue to use Careworks for our healthcare needs. It is very convenient to be able to walk in without an appointment. (12/20/10)
TH, Allentown
Great service. Fast and efficient. Thorough exam and friendly staff. (12/15/10)
DM, Stroudsburg
Mr. Dotson was as usual, prompt courteous and reliable. He prescribed an asthma nebulizer for me on a Sunday when my regular physician was unavailable. If not for Mr. Dotson and Geisinger, I would have had to cool my heels at our local ER, and at a much higher expense for Medicare to cover. I am happy to be able to avail myself on this needed service. (12/12/10)
PV, Reeders
I was very pleased with Careworks. I needed a physical so that I could study abroad in Italy next semester. I didn’t mind waiting. Barb, the nurse, was very nice and she had me in and out in no time. I don’t know what I would have done had Careworks not been available to me! (12/15/10)
KO, Allentown
Ken took the time to listen to me and my concerns. That alone is something that is hard to find. I would recommend these professionals to anybody and everybody. Thank you, Ken, for making my visit so pleasant. (11/19/10)
CR, Tannersville
Staff provides a very professional and comprehensive medical care. Prefer going to Careworks before our primary care M.D. (12/8/10)
JB, Schnecksville
Very fast service. Very friendly personnel. (12/4/10)
KS, Tunkhannock
First and foremost, VERY CONVENIENT! I needed a PPD and employment physical--$64. I do not have insurance and doctors wanted to charge more than that just to get in the door. Prices are extremely reasonable. The staff, Dorothy Wheaton, PA-C, and Melanie, the tech student, were very friendly without being too familiar. Very professional and very caring to my needs. My employment physical was for a foundation that fosters children. I am going to recommend your services to them! Thank you. (12/9/10)
JR, Allentown
During my physical the doctor was extremely helpful and nice. She treated me with dignity and respect. (8/27/10)
LC, Schnecksville
Excellent service. Quick and helped me a lot. (11/27/10)
EH, Allentown
Very professional, very quick service. Definitely would come back if I need to. (12/1/10)
MH, Monroe County
Barbara was a good nurse. The clinic was 2 ft. deep. She came out and said 20 min. wait per person. I decided to drive to the hospital. Barbara and the pharmacist called for an ambulance. Between Barbara and the pharmacist, they got me to the hospital. (10/30/10)
DS
The PA I encountered was friendly and knowledgeable. My visit was short which is great for a busy schedule. I would recommend their services for anyone. (11/24/10)
LY, Gilbert
It is great to be able to see a healthcare professional in the evening or on weekends. I work full-time and it can be difficult to get an appointment with my physician without missing work. The Careworks professionals in Clarks Summit are very courteous and helpful. (11/22/10)
WS, Dalton
Very courteous and patient while I was on the phone with my insurance company to verify 100% coverage. I would recommend this convenient service. (11/17/10)
FL, Bethlehem
I was very pleased with the help I got at Careworks. The attendants were nice and personal. Thanks for the gift card because I brought someone along. I will go again if I need to. (11/20/10)
DL, Schnecksville
My son needed a physical to join wrestling. We saw Dr. Dorothy Wheaton and she was very friendly and she saw us fast. I am very thankful that your charge for the physical was $39 instead of $89-$100. I hope you don’t raise your rates because I have no medical benefits and thankfully haven’t gotten sick, but if I do, I know where to go—directly to Careworks. Thanks again. (11/19/10)
CM, Slatedale
I was so glad that they were there for me in a time of need. They took me in almost immediately. I received great advice, proper treatment and the right medicine to get me feeling better again. Anywhere else it would have taken days to get in for a visit. It cost me the same as it would with my doctor. They are nearby and have convenient hours. I have already highly recommended Careworks. I hope I never need them again, but I know they are there for me. (11/14/10)
RK, Schnecksville
I have no complaints of the service I received. Lisa Wippel was very kind, explained everything, and wasn’t in a rush to get you out. I will recommend Careworks to anybody. (11/16/10)
VS, Schnecksville
What a great idea to have a walk-in medical care center in a grocery store. It is very difficult to find a physician office open on Saturdays and Sundays and Careworks has been available when our family needed urgent health care. Thank you. (11/20/10)
MS, Nazareth
I visited your Tannersville location. The Physician attending was Ken Dotson. I had an excellent experience. Ken was extremely knowledgeable and took his time in explaining everything to me. I will definitely go again. (11/22/10)
JM, Tobyhanna
Excellent care! This is what modern medicine should be like—professional and efficient. We liked: the scope of services, the ease of sign in, the video and PowerPoint listing services and insurance, Mary Krueger (professional and caring), the closeness of the pharmacy. Nice that you ask for feedback. (11/24/10)
SM, Port Townsend
My experience at Careworks was a very positive one. I thought that the physician assistant, Dorothy Wheaton, was very thorough and very pleasant. Careworks proved to be a very convenient option for me, and I did not mind the short wait. I will recommend Careworks to all my friends and co-workers. (11/7/10)
SB, Allentown
Very convenient, excellent service. (11/6/10)
DD, Slatington
I went to Careworks for my flu shot. Lisa Wippel took care of me. Very pleasant. Knew what she was doing. Nice and friendly. She sure knows how to give shots. (11/10/10)
AC, Schnecksville
Fast, quick, pleasant service. (11/14/10)
MH
I saw Kenneth Dotson, PA-C, at the Careworks Healthcare Clinic in the Tannersville Plaza. There were several people waiting to see him, so I did have a little bit of a wait, but Dr. Dotson took each person in turn, attended to their particular symptoms, didn’t rush, and was professional and sincere in taking care of us. He helped me understand my symptoms and made sure I understood the medication (scripts) I was to use. He was very genuine in his concern. He is an asset to the Careworks Clinic. (11/3/10)
MB, Long Pond
Careworks (Barb-Cedar Crest Blvd.) was there for me when my doctor couldn’t take me in for an appointment right away. Careworks is very convenient and helpful when you need to get checked for a health problem in a hurry. I’m glad I discovered Careworks, and I would recommend it to everyone. (11/3/10)
AP, Walnutport
I visited Careworks Convenient Healthcare when I realized one day at work that I probably had pink eye. I’d been battling a cold for days and assumed the virus had spread to my eyes. I hadn’t been to see a primary physician in almost 5 years and have not had a regular doctor since moving out of my parents’ house years ago, but I knew I needed to seek medical treatment now. I called the Lehigh Valley Health Network and they directed me to Careworks in the Weis Market in Allentown. When I arrived, there was one patient ahead of me, so I signed in and waited my turn. Nurse Bier was ready for me shortly. She was extremely friendly and instantly disarming. Her attitude immediately made me feel at ease. She recognized that I had pink eye and that it was likely viral right away. She then prescribed me some antimicrobial drops and instructed me to see an eye specialist if the pink eye did not clear up in a few days. I told her I also had a cold and she gave me a thorough exam—checked my temperature, etc. Based on her findings, she also recommended some OTC drugs, giving me both the brand and generic names for them. Having Weis Pharmacy right there was convenient. I’d never been to a walk-in clinic before, and I’ve been talking up my experience there to everyone who’ll listen. Careworks was definitely there when I needed it. I would go there again and would recommend it to anyone in need of basic medical care. (10/20/10)
JC, Whitehall
The nurse practitioner was very nice and did a thorough job of giving me a check up. It was my first time there and I would go back. (11/2/10)
BK, Clarks Green
I am very pleased and satisfied with the professionalism and experience that was displayed by Ramona Chase. Her guidance and knowledge of my illness comforted me and my family in what may have been a more difficult time. She is a credit to the healthcare profession and an asset that Lowe’s RDC #961 will surely miss. (11/2/10)
SD, Port Carbon
Every time I’ve been to Careworks I’ve had the pleasure of being cared for by Dianne Hickok. She’s attentive, very kind, and a wonderful person to have care for you, whether you need a physical or to have care of you when you’re sick. Most of all she remembered me. Every time I’ve been there she treated me like a friend, not just a customer or a patient. (10/18/10)
WH, Clarks Summit
I and my wife are very pleased with Careworks since it is so convenient! We are using it for all of our blood work, and my wife used Careworks to get her flu shot.
FW, Schnecksville
Ramona was wonderful!! I visited her on Oct. 22 because of a vibration in my left ear. The movement was prohibiting me from doing my job. She saw me in the clinic in a timely manner and showed me care and compassion. It turned out I had a foreign object stuck to my eardrum. She was able to wash it out and I was able to continue my day. It’s wonderful to have her so close, and she will be missed when she moves on to her next position. Thank you. (10/29/10)
CK, Trevorton
My grandson received timely efficient and courteous service. The nurse practitioner treated him in a friendly manner appropriate for a five-year-old boy. The center was conveniently located and since it was after doctor’s hours, also great for available time slots. (10/27/10)
DB, Allentown
Lisa Wippel is the best! She is very personable and knowledgeable. All doctors should be like her. It was a great experience. Wish she was in private practice. (10/24/10)
LB, Slatington
I got what I needed when I needed it. The nurse on duty was friendly and courteous. (10/2/10)
EW, Schnecksville
I think the Careworks clinic is great. The wait was a little long. I waited 50 minutes. Once in, my caregiver, Barb Bier was great. There were two others waiting after me. She did not rush my visit. She was thorough and did not rush. She took her time. This was my first experience at this Careworks Clinic in Weis Market. It was great. I had a prescription filled at the pharmacy right next door and in 15 minutes. I will recommend this to others. Actually, I did tell/text everyone I knew when I was done. Great job!!! And I will go back here again. (10/20/10)
SM, Allentown
I visited Careworks on a Friday night around 7 pm. when most people are heading off to dinner. Barb was taking care of patients with patients still waiting to be seen and many patients to chart. She took her time with me. She was kind and caring. She carefully evaluated changes in my medical condition and explained medications I could use. I’m sure she was exhausted (8-8 seems like a long day) but she still had work to do. I didn’t feel like she was rushing me and my care was important to her. Thanks, Barb! (10/9/10)
LFH, Schnecksville
Had a great experience. A few things things that need to be changed—more seating and more than one employee. (10/20/10)
MK, Minisink Hills
I saw Lisa Wippel for bronchitis. She was very friendly, professional and thorough. She made a diagnosis and reviewed with me what medications to use, how they worked and when to take them. I haven’t been to my family practice since Careworks opened. I prefer using Careworks for the convenient walk-in clinic. The nurse practitioners and physician assistants are always very nice and make me feel comfortable discussing health issues. I refer my co-workers for their work physicals every year to Careworks because it’s affordable and convenient. (10/23/10)
KS, Schnecksville
The staff was very friendly and the prices are reasonable. I will most likely return. Lisa Wippel was very helpful and the service was fast and convenient. (10/4/10)
MH, Schnecksville
Caring attitude by Dr. Lisa Wippel. Prescribed medication that was very effective in a short time. (10/22/10)
CD, Orefield
I am new to PA and was impressed. The office opened right on time. The practitioner was very nice. The office was very clean and tidy. The visit was quick. I woke up with a bladder infection and was very grateful there was a place to be seen. The cost of the visit was very reasonable. Thank you. (10/21/10)
MR, Tannersville
I had just moved from NY to PA. The next day my 1 year old was sick. Being new in town and not knowing where to turn, I was relieved to see a walk-in clinic at my local Weis super market. Physician Assistant, Kenneth Dotson, examined my child in a timely manner and treatment was started that day. I have complete faith in Ken Dotson and appreciate the convenience of a walk-in clinic for those unexpected illnesses. Thank you, Careworks! (10/18/10)
MCG, Henryville, PA
Fast and very courteous service. Professional response to questions. Easy access. (10/3/10)
DN, Emmaus
Excellent experience! Barb was awesome! Very kind thorough and knowledgeable. Will definitely return. (10/1/10)
LH, Bethlehem
I felt confident and in good hands with Kenneth Dotson. He was courteous, knowledgeable and compassionate. Your fees were reasonable and welcomed. Thank you for your services. I fully appreciate it. (9/28/10)
RW, Pocono Summit
Thank you Shara Albrich for seeing my wife and I on Friday evening, Sept. 24, 2010, at almost 8 pm. We were quite sick and just returned from vacation in Italy where we caught our viral infection and are just now feeling better. Had you not been open until 8 pm, we would have had to wait at least until 10 am Saturday for our meds. you prescribed. Thanks again. We already told our children about your Careworks. Perhaps next vacation we’ll use your travel consultation service and perhaps avoid getting sick. (9/28/10)
M&S A, Germansville
Good professional service. (9/19/10)
SS, Allentown
Very informative and attentive to questions that I asked. (9/17/10)

Every time I come to Careworks I get excellent care—full attention, never fee rushed. It is very convenient too. (9/2010)

Great service. Nurse, Diane, very compassionate and caring—very informative. Site clean, easy to get to. (9/20/10)
MB, Dallas
In Clarks Summit your Dianne Hickok does a great job and performs a very much needed service. Thank you. (9/24/10)
RD, South Abington
The nurse in charge was courteous and very professional. She was also very helpful and informative. Thank you. (9/27/10)
SR, Schnecksville
We cannot recommend Mr. Ken Dotson more highly. This is the second year we were administered flu vaccinations by this caring and efficient man. He put us at ease and worked quickly and with wonderful patience as he filled out pages of online paperwork for both of us. He had a line of people waiting outside his exam room but he was never hurried or harried. He gave us time and answered all of our questions with patience and good humor. We will return next year and hope he is still there. (9/22/10)
PV, Stroudsburg
I was really happy that the Careworks was local and I could be seen almost immediately. They are the best price around for someone like me with no insurance. There were 2 doctors present that day. They were both professional. I especially liked the personal touch way of talking to me. She gave me ideas for hot drinks to help my, I guess, virus in the end. She walked me over to the pharmacy so I would know exactly what pill to buy to help me feel a little better. That made a real difference to me. I would definitely go back when I get sick again. (9/22/10)
AZ, Allentown
I experienced excellent treatment from Dianne Hickok at the Weis Market Careworks in Clarks Summit. Despite it only being a flu shot, I was pleased with all aspects of my treatment. (9/20/10)
MM, Clarks Summit
I have been very satisfied with the help I have received from the Careworks attendants at Weis Market. They are very good at advising me and can refer me to the correct physician for my health problem. Dianne Hickok has been especially helpful. I am also glad you offer a comprehensive flu shot. (9/15/10)
BP, Waverly
Dr. Dotson at Tannersville was courteous and pleasant. He addressed my needs and advised me how to care for my situation. I am very happy that this service was available. (9/4/10)
ER, Tannersville
Great service! My family doctor was too busy to see me that day and fortunately for me, there’s a Careworks office close to my home near Weis Markets on Cedar Crest Blvd. Both the PA and the doctor were extremely welcoming and proficient—identified my shingles immediately. This has been my second experience with Careworks and again I was very impressed with the service. I waited very little time to get in and both the PA and doctor were more than eager to diagnose me and get me on my way. They also stressed the need to see an ophthalmologist immediately which I did. This team made me feel really comfortable, and I’m very happy to have access to this safety net. (9/4/10)
CG, Allentown
My husband and I were on a long weekend in your Schnecksville area. We both needed a look at by an MD. We were very happy with the service we received by your facility. Dr. S. Albrich was wonderful, professional, thorough and informative. We were both seen and on our way within 45 min., which included getting our prescriptions (2) filled. Being a pharmacist myself, I was very impressed with the professionalism and care we received. Thank you so much. We don’t get such care at home from our primary, never mind a walk-in clinic. Keep up the wonderful service. Pat Dr. Albrich on the back as well as her pharmacy collegues. (4/10/10)
MW, Schnecksville
I liked the service I had. He helped me, he answered all my questions, and he knew what I meant when I didn’t.
EC, Paradise Falls
I received professional service from Dr. Ken Dotson who was extremely friendly and caring. Although it was about 7 minutes until closing time, he agreed to treat me and did not just rush me along. I was also impressed by how well he did all the paperwork and operated the computer. I previously worked in a hospital for 6 years, and I have never met a physician as friendly as Dr. Dotson. He introduced himself as Ken, which made it comfortable to speak with him about my healthcare needs. I would definitely recommend anyone to his practice and Careworks. (8/11/10)
SC, Tannersville
I was very happy with Careworks. It was a relief that there was somewhere I was able to go on a Saturday with a minor health problem. (8/26/10)
PM, Allentown
I took my daughter Alicen to the clinic for a sports physical. Diane Hickok was on duty at the time. She was thorough and knowledgeable. I didn’t have a wait time. She’s also very friendly. (8/18/10)
SB, Nicholson
I received excellent care from Shara Albrich in Schnecksville. I did not have to wait at all. My visit was short but thorough. My medical issue was resolved. (8/13/0)
AC, Schnecksville
I went to your clinic in Tannersville and was treated by Dr. Kenneth Dotson. He was excellent and very well mannered. I will go back again and will tell my friends about the clinic. I was very happy in the way I was treated and the answers the doctor gave me. He was direct and I like that. (8/12/10)
CK, Tobyhanna
Mr. Kenneth Dotson was kind, solicitous, knowledgeable and efficient in diagnosing and treating my swollen left foot and leg on August 11. I was also impressed with his technique in calming me by talking about New York City and other mundane matters. Geisinger Health System and its associates are an asset to the community! (8/23/10)
MA, Tannersville
I feel Careworks was not only convenient but the PA I saw was very thorough and caring. I feel I got a very thorough exam, even better than my own medical doctor. (8/8/10)
LD
We visited Careworks on 8/4/10 for three physicals. Our family doctor recommended your services. We were in and out so quickly. It was wonderful. All three physicals were completed very professionally and my children were very comfortable with the health professionals there. Everyone was so nice and calm having my children in the same room and keeping them all at bay! Thank you again. I will recommend you to family and friends. (8/5/10)
MP, Wescosville
It’s very convenient. The doctors are great, take the time to listen, are very concerned and ask a lot of questions to get to the bottom of your complaint. Much better than waiting one hour or more in a doctor’s office. Love it! (8/3/10)
MFG, Clarks Summit
I have been pleased with services at Careworks Tannersville. All employees have been terrific and very professional. I have had Ken several times and he has been especially kind. He has a wonderful manner. (7/31/10)
RM
The Clarks Summit staff is always courteous, efficient and helpful with printouts related to the health issue I have. Careworks is convenient as I work full time and getting to my family doctor is sometimes difficult. The evening and weekend hours are most beneficial. Think the rates for office visits and lab tests are reasonable. (7/30/10)
WS, Dalton
Short wait. Short time for procedures. Very efficient with time. Friendliest healthcare staff I’ve ever encountered. Definitely returning. (7/29/10)
RS, White Haven
Careworks was a great experience. Dianne Hickok did a great evaluation. She took her time and was helpful on the phone when I called for information as well as when I went for an appointment. She explained everything regarding my rash, took time to provide me with information, and did a thorough examination. Besides Diane being so helpful, the cleanliness of the clinic and the late hours available to go are what will make me spread the word about Careworks, as well as go back there again. I cannot stress how convenient the hours are to be able to go after five when done at work. Thank you. (7/28/10)
DB, Dickson City
They were very helpful and caring about my problem. Also they were very thorough about what was going on. Overall good. (7/27/10)
SP
Careworks is convenient, friendly, and able to take care of our flu shots, minor injuries and surprises in healthcare. It’s so easy to sign in, shop and be treated. We pass the word and have friends who have now used Careworks at Weis Market also. We like the staff! (7/26/10)
LN, Clarks Summit
I came in on July 23 with a lingering sinus condition. A training session was going on with two new nurses. All of three of them were very effective, professional and courteous to me. It was a very pleasant experience, and I believe that I have solved the problem by going there. Their explanation was more thorough than that provided by most MDs. I will probably go back again. (7/24/10)
SE, Allentown
I have gone three times for various tests and have found the staff friendly knowledgeable and caring. Thanks for the good service and the convenience. (7/22/10)
DJ, Allentown
Personable and the right price. Efficient and excellent care. Thank you! (7/14/10)
MS, Tannersville
I was very pleased with the services received. The nurse was courteous and very professional. She was very understanding and a pleasure to talk to. (7/20/10)
VA, Clarks Summit
Excellent service. I received the shingles shot. Efficient, clean, professional and private. Diane Whitcomb was very caring and knowledgeable. Material was given to me to read and share with my doctors. (7/18/10)
JR, E. Stroudsburg
Dr. Dianne Hickok, CRNP, was excellent. She was supposed to close at 4:00, but she waited for us and didn’t leave until 4:30. She was helpful and explained things very well. She went above and beyond. I will recommend Careworks and Dr. Hickok. Excellent care. Thank you. (7/18/10)
JM, Haifa, Israel (visiting Olyphant)
The care I have received at your Careworks location in Tannersville has been excellent. Mr. Kenneth Dotson, PA, is a greatly skilled clinician. I am most grateful for these urgent care facilities. As a retired RN, I am asked frequently about sources of medical care and recommend going to Careworks. (7/16/10)
LK
I went to Careworks for treatment of a spider bite. Dr. Dianne Hickok treated me in a professional and caring manner. She spent time taking my blood pressure, temperature, and other procedures. She gave me a prescription which helped my problem. She even reminded me to drink water to avoid dehydration. I was very satisfied with the care I received. (7/10)
RY, Clarks Summit
I was very impressed with the Careworks clinic in the Tannersville Weis Market. I took my 4-year-old daughter in on the 5th of July and there was no long wait and Dr. Dotson was very thorough and professional. Thank you. (7/12/10)
AH, Lewis Run
Dr. Ken Dotson took time with me, discussed my problem, my options for treatment, and any required follow up. He was informed and courteous. He listened to me and heard me! I was totally impressed with the service I received. (6/28/10)
SS, Tannersville
I would highly recommend Careworks to anyone. They figured out what my rash was and took care of it. Very pleasant, very knowledgeable. Would not hesitate to visit again if need be. (6/30/10)
GR, Stroudsburg
The service I received at Careworks Weis Clarks Summit was very professional and efficient. Mr. Ramon Torres was very friendly and knowledgeable. He made my visit an extremely positive, non-threatening experience. I would recommend Careworks to all my family and friends. (6/29/10)
JT, Clarks Summit
Diane Whitcomb, CRNP, and trainee were very helpful and kind to me. There were no patients in front of me, so there was no wait time. The CRNP answered all my questions. She was very sweet, knowing I was sick and not feeling well. She was very personable. (7/1/10)
KS, Stroudsburg
Dr. Kenneth Dobson is an excellent member of Geisinger’s Health System. The Careworks located in Tannersville and Mount Pocono are very welcome and greatly needed in our area. The concept of urgent care clinics will aid in reducing unneeded visits to our hospitals’ emergency care units, thereby helping to reduce our outrageous health care costs in this country. I have two ER physician sons and am a retired RN, so I am well aware of our current medical economic situation. I try to educate people to make use of these facilities. We are most fortunate to have Geisinger Health System in our geographic area of North Eastern Pennsylvania. (7/3/10)
LK, RN, Cresco
We noticed an unusual rash on our grandson’s arm. Friends suggested that it might be caused by ringworm. The RN at Careworks postponed her lunch, checked the rash, confirmed the suggested diagnosis as ringworm, and recommended treatment. We were very impressed with the professional service conducted by the Careworks RN. (7/5/10)
FM, Schnecksville
Excellent! Quick, easy and efficient. Ken Dotson was caring, professional and very helpful. I would highly recommend this service. (7/11/10)
MM, Cresco
Ken Dotson was very professional and efficient. (7/7/10)
KR, Stroudsburg
This is my second visit to Careworks. I couldn’t have been treated better. In fact, I wish Kenneth Dotson, PA-C, was a primary doctor. He is kind, patient and understanding. Very good doc! (7/5/10)
NL, Canadensis
A long wait but otherwise excellent service. And the wait was not unexpected. (7/6/10)
KS, Whitehall
Dr. Ramon Torres was very thorough and explained everything clearly. Great service. Wish we had the same in our part of Florida. Thank you. (6/25/10)
CP
Wonderful care. Diane Whitcomb is a caring and compassionate nurse practitioner, very informed. Careworks is a great service. I recommend it to anyone. (6/29/10)
EM, Stroudsburg
My doctor who cared for me on my visit was very professional, nice and compassionate. He explained my condition in full details and helped me understand. (6/30/10)
SS, Stroudsburg
Appointment went very well. Dorothy was courteous, knowledgeable and prompt. It was a pleasure. See you again. (6/25/10)
RL, Allentown
The best care. I’m so glad there’s a Careworks close to me. I can’t see any say to improve care. (6/15/10)
NW, Allentown
It’s always a pleasure seeing Shara at the Schnecksville site. She’s fully professional with a friendly manner. Careworks is so convenient. (6/19/10)
CS, Slatington
Very good service. Would go back again. (6/19/10)
DC, Schnecksville
Very well satisfied with the advice regarding my cold and cough. Recommendations worked well and I’m glad I had it checked out. (6/22/10)
EK, Scott Township
Dr. Dotson (Tannersville) was very courteous and we (my wife and I who were both examined) feel that he did a very thorough job in asking questions, using instruments, taking measurements, and in giving us a useful diagnosis and related prescriptions which we are currently utilizing. A big part of our lingering problems may be allergies here in the Poconos. As luck would have it, there was no waiting line as we arrived! (6/21/10)
RK, Pocono Pines
I am always pleased with the care—the speed, the knowledge of the PA/nurse practitioner are great. I love the convenience of the pharmacy on site and the records you keep. (6/24/10)
VH
The best care. I’m so glad there’s a Careworks close to me. I can’t see any way to improve care. (6/15/10)
NW, Allentown
Very convenient and no appointment necessary. Both girls I encountered were very professional. My husband and family all had flu shots and will definitely go back again. (6/4/10)
JK, Slatington
This clinic was very handy and Mr. Dotson was extremely courteous and helpful in taking care of my problem. As a tourist from out of town, I really appreciated being able to drop in and be taken care of right away. (6/2/10)
CB, Tannersville
Superior experience: timely, efficient, professional, effective treatment. I couldn’t ask for a better experience. It was truly Care that Works. (5/14/10)
PS, McCormick, SC
My daughter was seen by Mr. Torres, PA-C, last weekend due to an ear infection. He did a fantastic job with her. Perfect example of Careworks—competent PA, can handle a kid’s ear infection on the weekend. No need for an ER! Thank you Mr. Torres! Great service. (6/7/10)
HM, Clarks Summit
I visited the Clarks Summit office on June 10 with my 12-year-old daughter. She needed a chicken pox vaccine in order to attend 7th grade. Kenneth Dotson was on duty. My daughter hates shots and was very nervous. He explained the vaccine to her and the health benefits for it. He put my daughter at ease and was actually laughing by the time he gave her the shot. When we left the office, she told me she wanted to receive all her future shots there. She felt he treated her as a person, not just a kid who did not need to know what was going on. (6/11/10)
LT, Clarks Summit
You did very well; however, I could have used more information about where my blood work was sent. Although when I called to retrieve that information, I was successful in doing so. To add, I love your service. In fact, this experience was my second time in your place. The convenience and walk-in are a life saver really. Thank you. (6/12/10)
AS, Old Forge
I have used the Careworks office in Dorneyville twice. The first was for my 16-year-old who required a physical before taking his learner’s permit test. The cost was $39, which is less than I would have paid at my pediatrician’s office. The second was for myself when I couldn’t get into my doctor’s office. Janelle, Dorothy, and Shara were wonderful. The care we both received was wonderful. The staff was personable and professional, which are two traits that are sometimes hard to find in medical professionals. I have already recommended you to a friend who needed minor emergency care. (6/11/10)
PB, Orefield
Dorothy Wheaton was very pleasant and I was pleased. (6/11/10)
GP, Allentown
This concept of a walk-in clinic in a grocery store or pharmacy is brilliant! As a parent of three children under six, the need to see a healthcare specialist for minor sicknesses (ear infection, coughs, etc.) is a possibility at any moment. Knowing that I have this drop-in option is comforting. I can also do my shopping while I wait. Finally, Ken Dotson at the Tannerville location is a gem, a pleasure to work with. (5/24/10)
AB, Pocono Pines
I was very pleased with the service and information received. (5/24/10)
EB
Very professional—would definitely recommend it to friends. (5/3/10)
PG, Canandensis
I enjoyed my visit. Dianne was very helpful and nice. I received prompt and discreet service. When I had a problem with my antibiotic, she quickly issued me something different. (5/18/10)
RT, Clarks Summit
This was my second visit to Careworks. I was examined by Ken Dotson. The most important thing to me was that he listened to what I said and was thorough in the exam. I completely trust the care I received at Careworks. I’ve told everyone I know about Careworks including my cardiologist. It is nice to know that when I am sick, I don’t have to wait to receive medical care. I can just go to Careworks. (5/29/10)
LG, Pocono Pines
Excellent service. This was the third time I used Careworks. It is reassuring to have quality health care at your finger tips. (5/23/10)
BS, Stroudsburg
Very fast, friendly and extremely helpful. Will use again and recommend to others. (5/19/10)
RT, Kempton
Diane Whitcomb was very personable and caring. She listened and was eager to help me feel better. Even though she has many consumers to care for, I felt as though I was her main concern, and she had as much time as I needed with her. I feel confident using Careworks in the future. Thank you for this service. (5/18/10)
IA, Stroudsburg
I commute from PA to NJ each day. It is so hard to get an appointment when I’m sick because a lot of these practices close at 6 pm. I can always make it to Careworks when I get home. The doctor on duty, Ken, is so pleasant and always has kind words. I do not know what I would do without Careworks. The weekend hours are the best aspect of this business. Convenience as well as great care is always there. (5/1810)
SM, Bartonsville
Cordial, quick and efficient. (5/12/10)
PM, Kresgeville
This was my 2nd time to Careworks in Schnecksville. The first time was at the end of Feb. 2010 with Lisa for what turned out to be a herniated disc. This time, Shara took care of my sinus infection. Both times the physician’s assistants were respectful, knowledgeable and congenial. It’s very difficult to maintain a polite composure when dealing with a very hurting patient such as I was. What an excellent service Geisinger provides through the ladies in this Careworks. (5/4/10)
HD, Slatington
Doctor Kenneth Dotson is the most wonderful and sincere doctor I ever met. His diagnosis of my illness was accurate. The medication he prescribed for me worked wonderful. I do pay out of pocket, but I would rather do that instead of going to the emergency room because I know that Careworks does work for me. (5/8/10)
PH, Monroe County
I think that the service provided is awesome. (5/15/10)
SW, Stroudsburg
The service was great. The doctor was very nice. Thank you. (5/15/10)
RD, Tannersville
I just wanted to tell you how much we appreciated the assistance given to us by Shara Albrich. We went to your clinic located in the Kings (Weis) Supermarket at Cedar Point on Friday, March 19 so that my daughter could receive a H1N1 shot before leaving on a school trip to France. When we arrived, Shara was friendly and accommodating which helped make the experience a pleasant one for both of us. My daughter can be uptight about getting shots, but after this I’m sure she will not be as anxious the next time she needs a shot. Thank you for a caring and relaxing atmosphere. We will return if the occasion should arise and will inform others of our pleasant experience. (5/12/10)
JW, Allentown
Services were well rendered and with concern for the patient. (5/20/10)
IK, Schnecksville
Our family has been using Careworks for the past two years. We love Janelle Sharma and the other NP (Dorothy Wheaton) that works at the Careworks in Allentown. They make going for a sick visit for our children enjoyable and that’s something to be proud about. We thank you for having such a wonderful staff! We hope to have these great ladies around for a long time. (5/5/10)
MP, Allentown
I very much appreciate the convenience of stopping by my local Weis to see someone at Careworks. No appointment; usually no wait. Thorough exam; scripts called in for more convenience. (5/4/10)
LJ, Allentown
Excellent service. Person was very professional, paid attention to my concerns, she was very good, she took time to explain options and prescribe medication. The wait time was minimal. (4/30/10)
DG, New Tripoli
Doctor was very informative and answered all my questions with patience. She was friendly and made my visit very pleasant. I felt satisfied with the service and felt I got my money out of the trip. Best doctor I’ve ever had. (4/28/10)
ZZ, Allentown
My daughter needed medical attention after several days with an earache and then a throbbing headache. I didn’t think I could get her in to see our family physician, so I took her to Careworks. It was actually much more convenient than going to the doctor’s office. The nurse practitioner was very helpful and caring. Plus, we were able to pick up the medication at the in-store pharmacy. It saved us a lot of time and my daughter received good care. (4/22/10)
AB, Stroudsburg
Dr. Kenneth Dotson was wonderful! I didn’t expect such a personal experience when I was first told about Careworks. He was very prompt. I didn’t wait long to get into the exam room and the exam was very quick and efficient. He was very knowledgeable about his profession, educating me on the diagnosis, other unlikely possibilities, tests used to diagnose the other possibilities, and the treatment for my diagnosis. The bottom line is that Careworks exceeded my expectations with respect to cost, quality care, friendly staff, and time! (4/22/10)
KT, Moosic
Nurse on duty conducted herself in a professional and competent manner. Being a nurse myself, I immediately perceived her to be someone that I would welcome as a peer caregiver. Kudos to her and all nurses who take their professional responsibilities seriously and knowledgeably. (2/15/10)
NN, Clarks Summit
I love Diane Whitcomb! I have visited Careworks quite a few times, mostly for vaccinations regarding overseas travel. She has provided me with great information every time I visit. The first time I visited, she gave a ton of relevant and important information which I have kept and have referred back to more than once. She is so sweet. I enjoy talking about our travels and look forward to visiting again. (4/17/10)
SM, Branchville, NJ
The nurse or doctor got all my information on the computer quickly and updated everything. She was kind and through. She asked questions and answered mine. (4/17/10)
JS, Schnecksville
I love the efficiency and ease of the walk-in service. If Careworks had not been created, I would have had to wait two days until I could get in to see my family doctor and would not have had relief over the weekend. It’s a great service. (4/18/10)
BN, Macungie
Lisa Wippel is truly an asset to Careworks. She is friendly and caring. She quickly diagnoses the illness and dispenses the appropriate prescription, if needed. (4/19/10)
LD, Schnecksville
Dianne Hickok, CRNP, took very good care of me on this first visit. After a thorough exam and listening patiently to my concerns, she wrote out my prescriptions and explained them clearly. I was given plenty of reading material to understand my condition and further material regarding another condition that I had previously which concerned me. It was a pleasant experience to deal with Careworks and especially nice to have such a knowledgeable, caring person as Diane looking out for me. My whole family will be using Careworks, when necessary, in the future. Thank you for being there when we needed you. (4/20/10)
PL, Sturges
Top notch care and caring! Your staff, among them Diane Whitcomb, makes all the difference. What a great alternative to waiting for your doctor to find time or going to the ER when all you need is urgent care. Thank you. (4/10/10)
HD, Stroudsburg
Prompt, professional, thorough, convenient. (4/12/10)
KW, New Tripoli
I had been sick several days. Needed to know if strep as had severe throat pain. Was very nice, fast and professional. (4/8/10)
KT, Slatington
I appreciate the convenience of medical care as a walk in. It’s great not to need an appointment since I work and am a very busy person. The fees are reasonable, and I’ve used your services for physicals and required vaccines for my job as caregiver in the past two years. (4/8/10)
RVS, Tannersville
Love Careworks! Professional and caring help was received while I was visiting. I needed to find a seasonal flu shot because my doctor didn’t receive them early enough in the season and then I needed the H1N1 shot for myself and my son. We walked right in and were taken care of in no more than 2 minutes time. Very convenient. No long term appointments needed. Same day help. (2/15/10)
LP, Lehighton
This was my first time using Careworks although my son has been there several times for different needs. I love this concept. Usually when I have an appointment with my physician I still wait an hour to see him. I have never had to wait at Careworks. The person I saw, Jill Elliot was professional yet very friendly. She knew exactly what to prescribe and encouraged me to call if I needed more help. I walked out her door and right next to it is the pharmacy. What a concept! Thank you Careworks and Jill Elliot, PA-C. (3/22/10)
TS, Kempton
I saw Dorothy at the Cedar Crest Blvd. clinic on March 25th. I work away from home all week and had not been able to shake what started as a cold and was progressing to something worse. I had used Careworks a few years ago for a similar situation and was very pleased with the service. Same thing this time—good efficient care that prevented a progression of the infection. Careworks is a life saver and I wish there were clinics in more areas. Thanks for being there when I needed you. Dorothy was excellent. (3/26/10)
DJ, Drums
Dorothy Wheaton, PA-C, was great! My 8-year-old son was sick and Dorothy was so very nice and made him feel calm and relaxed. Please open a Careworks at Weis on Macarthur Rd. in Whitehall, PA (3/28/10)
TS, Whitehall
Very convenient. Nurse practitioner very professional. Addition of a clerical person at peak times would increase the number of patients she could see. (3/9/10)
JS, Clarks Summit
Dr. Kenneth Dotson is a wonderful asset to your company. He is such a delightful and caring physician. He shows absolute attention in examining, discussing and explaining. He is an absolute wonderful person. He is a benefit to your corp. You’re lucky to have him on staff. (3/2010)
VP & KA, E. Stroudsburg
Dr. Ken was wonderful when we came in with our two-year-old crying with an ear infection. Driving home from picking up my husband at work, our daughter started crying holding her ears saying, “Ouch.” We called our pediatrician’s office. Neither doctor could see our daughter today. We would have had to go to the ER if Careworks wasn’t available. Thank you. (3/24/10)
KK, Pocono Lake
Quick service; friendly and nice doctor. (3/23/10)
RA, Stroudsburg
I absolutely love it! I have used the Stroudsburg facility many, many times since last year. The convenience is incredible and the care I receive is phenomenal. Diane Whitcomb, CRNP, is one of my favorites—always knowledgeable, positive and caring. I recommend this facility to everyone I speak with. I only wish it was larger to hold more physicians so the wait wouldn’t be too long. (3/22/10)
BB, Effort
This was my first visit to Careworks. I felt very comfortable and the care was very professional and friendly. I could not see my doctor and I knew I felt very ill, so someone suggested I stop in to see you. I would come in again and suggest to others to do the same. The care and Rx I received helped me heal within two weeks. Thanks for the care and having a place to go to without having to go to the ER. (3/20/10)
RS, Allentown
I went to your clinic thinking that I had a UTI. After a test, your nurse quickly assessed that I was not suffering from a UTI. She informed me that, in fact, my sugar was so high that it was dangerous for me. She advised me to go to a physician immediately and address the situation. She explained the consequences being life threatening if left unchecked. In a way she probably saved my life or at the very least terrible consequences. (3/18/10)
LS, Tobyhanna
Location convenient. Schedule worked out great. Doctor was friendly/helpful. Doctor was patient. Long wait, but worth it. (3/18/10
CR, Tannersville
We come there a lot and you all were ever so nice and helped us. Thank you for that. (3/13/10)
KW, Bartionsville
Diane was extremely kind, friendly and helpful. Gave us all the needed information and then some. (3/12/10)
JC, Lake Ariel
My visit to the Careworks in Schnecksville was a pleasant surprise! I was seen immediately and the PA-C, Jill Elliot, was kind and extremely efficient. My total visit only took about 20 minutes, and I was able to fill my prescriptions right at the Weis pharmacy. I have referred many employees to Careworks since it opened, but had never been a patient myself until today. I will happily continue with the referrals and will not hesitate to use them again in the future for medical care. (3/11/10)
AN, Schnecksville
I visited Careworks on 3/11/10. Dianne Hickok was very helpful, courteous and thorough. I was happy I went there and would go again. (3/12/10)
LC, So. Abington Township
Careworks was wonderful. My two-year-old son was sick and we live in FL. We walked right in with no wait. Dianne was very friendly and interacted so nicely with my little boy. We were out in no time and got our prescription filled right next door. I also loved how neat and clean the office was. Thank you for a great experience. I highly recommend Careworks! (3/9/10)
AM, Tunkhannock
My experience was very good at Careworks. I was treated for pink eye and it was a good exam and informative. (3/8/10)

I was very pleased. I went to the Stroudsburg Careworks and there was a line. I felt too bad to wait in line. I left and came back later. I was greated by a very nice women who said the provider was out sick. She told me that the Tannersville location had a provider. She gave me a nice care bag. Then she mailed me a $5 gas card for my trouble. Wow, that was great! The service I received at the Tannersville location was excellent. She took the time to listen and did a detailed exam. I would tell everyone. They really care about you—not how many patients you can see in one day. Thank you! (3/7/10)
JS, Stroudsburg
I am so happy that I brought my daughter and now my family to the Careworks center in Tannersville. The PA truly listens to what I am saying and even though he is always busy, I never feel rushed. The convenience and service are A+! (3/7/10)
MH, Tannersville
The care and attention my son received was awesome. The provider was professional and gentle. Your care is a great alternative for doctor’s being closed on the weekend. Thank you. (3/6/10)
AF, Breinigsville
Excellent! I am very grateful for Careworks. I don’t need an appointment. I do not have to go to the emergency room at the hospital and wait for a long time to get waited on, and then wait a long time for a room, and then wait for a long time for the doctor to show up, and then wait a long time to get discharged. My regular doctor stopped his practice of removing wax from his patients’ ears. Thank God Careworks does this procedure. Anyone that needs this done knows how important it is to have the wax removed as quickly as possible. I give thumbs up and from a 1 to 10 rating, give Careworks a 10. The two physicians at the Tannersville location should be commended highly for their professionalism. (3/8/10)
ER, Swiftwater
I met with Jill Elliot for a sinus infection. I found her to be very smart, caring and helpful. (3/7/10)
WH, Germansville
This was my first visit to Careworks. I was very impressed with the many services you offer. The visual displays of the registration process were smooth and hassel free, along with friendly intake workers, made this check in experience good. The waiting time was reasonable. I was seen by Dorothy Wheaton PA-C. She was personable and professional meeting my medical need. I would recommend family and friends. (3/5/10)
CN, Allentown
Our experience was great. The site was open on a snowy, miserable day. The staff was friendly, efficient and professional, and we got my daughter’s physical done in time to get to PennDot for her learner’s permit. I would definitely use this service again. (3/6/10)
LS, Allentown
Thank you for your lovely care. (3/5/10)
SG, East Stroudsburg
Easy, assessable, quick service, especially for treatment of minor infections and uncomplicated symptoms. (3/3/10)
EK, Whitehall
I received much needed care in the midst of a snow storm! They were very polite, understanding, caring and professional. They answered all my questions and took care of all my needs. I would highly recommend the Careworks clinic. (2/25/10)
HG, Tannersville
I was seen by Dr. Ken Dotson on Monday, February 15, 2009, for treatment of bronchitis. He was very professional and compassionate. He prescribed an antibiotic which had me feeling a lot better within one week. (2/21/10)
LR, Tannersville
My request for information was retrieved and a return call came within a couple of hours of my call. At the clinic, I was greeted warmly, the process explained, information was taken and the H1N1 shot provided with expert hands. The whole process took very little time. (2/19/10)
RA, Saylorsburg
Using Careworks for a minor sore throat was much more convenient than sitting in a doctor’s office for hours. The entire process took probably 15 minutes including a short wait to be seen. The doctor/nurse was polite and professional. I would definitely return. (2/19/10)
VD, Tannersville
I visited Careworks in Tannersville. PA-C Ken Dotson took care of my needs in a friendly and professional manner. It was a pleasant experience to my surprise. I will definitely recommend your medical services to others. (2/2/10)

I think it was a great idea to have a clinic right in work. (2/3/10)
DR, Scranton
My husband and I went in to get a seasonal flu shot. We were happy that Weis offered this shot. Our doctor had run out of the shot, and when we saw that Weis was offering it, we took advantage of it. (2/10/10)
CS, S. Abington Township
I thought it was very convenient. Janelle Sharma was very professional, well mannered and treated me very well. I didn’t feel like she rushed or was in a hurry. She listened to what I was there for. (2/8/10)
CH, Allentown
I was greatly pleased with my Careworks experiences. I recommend you to everyone. Your staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. Your service exceeded my expectations! (2/8/10)
LG, Schnecksville
After waiting 25 minutes at a walk-in care center, I decided to call Careworks to see if there was a long wait. Being the mother of a 16-month-old, I don’t have time to be sick or under the weather. Shara told me there wasn’t a wait, and I told her I’d be there in 5 minutes (I was right up the road). I did wait about 20 minutes for her to take care of another patient. In the meantime, I called the hot-line and gave the lady on the phone all of my info. So my chart was ready when I was called. All Shara had to do was ask me a few questions and fill out the rest of my chart and take a look at me. This was quick, painless and my prescription was filled right there at Weis afterwards. I would definitely go there again. (1/26/10)
DW, Allentown
Ken Dotson from the Careworks in Tannersville is great to work with. He is caring and quick as well as genuine. I found that even though teaching makes your schedule busy, I was able to get in to Careworks with the time I had. It is very helpful and affordable. I will most definitely return. (1/23/10)
RW, Newfoundland
Thank you very much for providing Careworks in Tannersville. Our primary care physician is located a distance from our home. Your center is much more convenient for basic care needs. Your caregivers, Ken and Mary, have been very helpful, considerate and kind. Thank you. (1/28/10)
LH, Canandensis
I was very pleased with the services I received at Careworks in Tannersville. Ken Dotson, PA-C was professional and knowledgeable of my health care needs. The wait time was maybe 15 minutes or less. It sure beats going to the ER, which I considered initially. I am really glad to know that Careworks is available, and it is very convenient and close to home. (1/27/10)
TH, Tannersville
I felt the attention and treatment provided to me by Ken Dotson was excellent! It’s wonderful to be able to have service available every day without waiting weeks for an appointment. (1/27/10)
HM, Mt. Pocono
I liked not having to wait for an appointment and then sitting in the doctor’s office 15-30 minutes after my appointment time before finally seeing the doctor. She treated my sinus infection and made sure the medication she prescribed would not interfere with my other meds. She was very pleasant and took her time. (1/25/10)
DH, New Tripoli
Your service was a lifesaver. No appointment, friendly atmosphere and quality care. (1/22/10)

The care given me my first time was very caring by the PA. My family doctor was out of town, and I am glad to say your clinic is conveniently near my home. My daughter also uses your services from time to time for her children and is also quite satisfied. I would definitely use your services again if needed. Thank you. (1/15/10)
DN, Saylorsburg
After two visits this week—one pre-flu and one post-flu, I feel very satisfied by the service, diagnosis, medications and follow-up visits. I visited on 1/10/10 and 1/18/10 and both PAs were excellent. (1/18/10)
JS
We met with Shara Albrich today. My 3 ½-year-old son was sick and grumpy. Shara was very patient, informative, and kind. We really enjoyed our experience and will recommend you to friends and family. We will return again. Thanks for your help. (1/15/10)
KK, Schnecksville
I visited the Careworks site in Stroudsburg, PA. Diane was my CRNP and she was absolutely wonderful. The visit was fast, registration was a breeze, I paid my co-pay and left with scripts for antibiotics soon after. I applaud this system of healthcare, where I don’t have to wait weeks to see a doctor when I feel ill right now. (1/15/10)
GR, Stroudsburg
Thank you so much for giving me a physical for work. You guys responded the quickest, and if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have gotten this job. The physician, Dianne Hickok, had taken my physical and she worked great with me. She was very friendly, she never raised her voice to me, she was courteous, and very professional. I would suggest her to anyone. Thank you once again for giving me this physical. (1/14/10)
SB, Scranton
Thanks for my painless flu shot. I’m very glad to have the Careworks center so close to home and with hours for everyone. (1/14/10)
DG, Clarks Summit
I was fortunate enough to have Jill Elliott serve me on several occasions when I was feeling really ill. She is very thorough and was a great help when my physicians weren’t available. She monitors my blood pressure and even gave me my flu shot. We have a terrific relationship. (1/13/10)
EH, Schnecksville
Very conveniently located for what I needed. The price I paid out of pocket was less expensive than my co-pay. (1/11/10)
ER, Dalton
My wife and I had swine flu shots (H1N1) and the caregiver was courteous, polite and very professional. (1/9/10)
AH, Henryville
I had a pleasant experience. The nurse practitioner was wonderful! We visited over Christmas weekend and were grateful this was open, and we didn’t have to fight for an appointment on Monday. (1/9/10)
GC, E. Stroudsburg
We appreciate the kind and appropriate manner in which we were treated at this facility for a flu shot. (1/7/10)
E & W P, Stroudsburg
Fast and efficient! (1/5/10)
AD, Slatington
Excellent facility and staff. Used theTannersville facility on Dec. 30, a very busy time of year. I was seen quickly and diagnosed accurately. The availability of your facility saved me from a New Year’s holiday that could have been miserable. Thanks to Ken Dotson, PA-C, for his prompt service and compassion. (1/2/10)
SG, Perkiomenville
I received a Zostavax injection at the Weis Market Careworks office in Clarks Summit, PA. Prior to this I didn’t know anything about the office and the clinic services offered. I was amazed, pleased and very satisfied with the professional, friendly and caring service offered to me by Dianne Hickok, the health care provider. Also, the office (clinic) was clean and well organized. I’m grateful for the experience. (1/1/10)
LY, Clarks Summit, PA

Your employee, Janelle M. Sharma, was very professional and very pleasant to deal with. Your office was very busy but she did not rush the patients. Took her time and was very thorough. (12/21/09)
AR, Allentown
I love going to Careworks. The convenience and the competence of the provider is wonderful. Most of the time you do not have to wait long, but I recently went the Saturday after Christmas and there was a very long wait. In this case your provider was extremely nice letting people know the time line. I will recommend this service to everyone I come in contact with. Thank you so much. (12/26/09)
J, Marshalls Creek
While visiting Tannersville, PA, I was taken very ill. I went into Weis Markets store #166 in Tannersville. I was seen by a Mr. Kenneth Dotson. He was very kind and efficient. He listened to my problems and gave me a checkup and prescribed medication as necessary. All in all, it was a pleasant experience. He was extremely professional. I would highly recommend this clinic. Wish there were more of these. Thank you. (12/11/09)
FN, Tannersville
I was seen immediately and Jill was thorough with my exam. She was cheerful all three times I visited your facility. It is so convenient to be able to walk in and get help and not have to call my doctor’s office and wait to be fit into a schedule. I can get my prescription right away and be back home within an hour’s time. (12/14/09)
CH, Germansville
I thought Ken Dotson (PA-C) was very knowledgeable and professional. He advised us to see a podiatrist for our son’s foot problem. I will use your services again. (12/10/09)
JB, Tannersville
First time I used Careworks for my son. He was not feeling good and his regular doctor was too far away. The attention was great and the nurse practitioner was excellent. I will whenever in town use the service again in the event of an emergency. (10/1/09)
DR
I just moved into the area and did not yet find a doctor’s office, and wouldn’t you know it, Saturday before a holiday I needed some post flu lingering symptoms checked out. Online I found a Careworks clinic I could find on my own. When I got there in Weis I waited 2 hours with lots of other folks. I was skeptical about the kind of treatment and care I would receive, but when it was my turn, PA-C Kenneth Dotson talked me through the paperwork assuring me I was not alone in the post flu symptoms I was presenting with. He gave me a great checkup, and I was able to fill the prescription I needed. He was very efficient and had a wonderful manner. The whole process was very good. Thank you from this newbie. (11/21/09)
TC, Pocono Lake
Excellent in every way! (12/1/09)
JF, Clarks Summit
This was the first time I used Careworks and I was very much satisfied. The nurse was thorough and professional. This is definitely an asset to our community. (12/2/09)
RB, Kutztown
Kenneth Dotson took great care of me! I was chaperoning a youth retreat where I had to be at the top of my game, but I was sick and far from home (Tannersville). I was in and out quickly, Mr. Dotson ran the required tests, and wrote up a prescription for me. I easily finished up the trip and got on my way to recovery. Mr. Dotson was professional, kind, and efficient! He was definitely my hero that day! (12/2/09)
CK, Media
Waiting time was not long at all; doctor always helpful, pleasant and friendly; answered all my questions; will recommend others to him and have already recommended people. (12/3/09)
NV, Tannersville
Ken Dotson, PA-C is a true professional. I found him to be caring and agreed with his diagnosis. I would use the Careworks clinic in the future. I was more satisfied than when I see my PCP. Thank you. (12/3/09)
MW, Tannersville
I have visited Careworks in Clarks Summit on two different occasions and both times have found the care worker to be competent and caring. (12/4/09)

Every time I use the Careworks clinic I’m treated great. They are thorough and cordial. I usually don’t have to wait long either. (12/10/09
CL, Stroudsburg
Mr. Ken Dotson examined my fiancé thoroughly and explained everything so we could understand it. We have gone to the Careworks clinics many times for affordable healthcare and have always had pleasant people care for us. Very efficient and thorough. (11/10/09)
BT, Tannersville
I have brought my grandchildren to Careworks a few times and I want to say that every time I go there, I am greeted with smiles and very courteous persons. The people are friendly, courteous and respectful. I have never had a bad experience there. Many thanks also for being so understanding with children. (11/29/09)
GM, Walnutport
I was seen and evaluated by Janelle M. Sharma a short time after my arrival: a short trip to shop for a few items in the Weis Market, back to a chair and I was seen promptly. The pharmacy next to the clinic filled my script, also promptly, and I was out the door. Seen by doctor, script in hand, and shopped—all within one hour! I’ve recommended this Careworks clinic to everyone in my family. My daughter and her husband use it and take either daughter there when needed. My sister has also been there. I’m thankful for your service to our area. (12/1/09)
CJ, Allentown
Awesome! Friendly, clean and convenient. (11/15/09)
DA, Schnecksville
I get good help at Careworks, get taken care of right away and don’t have to wait for a week to be seen by my primary doctor. (11/9/09)
KV, Tannersville
I moved to the Poconos Jan. 2008 from Philadelphia, losing my medical coverage. I hadn’t had blood work since I moved, and I was really anxious to have it done. I was referred to you by an agency in Stroudsburg not knowing you were part of Geisinger. I went to the one at Mr. Z’s Tannersville and was very glad I did. The person there (Kenny) was pleasant, sure of himself, and made me feel relaxed about what he was going to do. I have running veins and I usually get bruised and it hurts to take my blood. Not this time! I really appreciated that. And, for those who aren’t insured, the price is very affordable. At this rate I can keep up with this every three months or so like I’m used to doing. It also allowed me to bring someone else in who doesn’t have coverage. Thank you, Careworks. I will be using your services and referring others as best I can. (11/11/09)
JC, Mt. Pocono
I really like that the Careworks office is open on weekends and even though there were a lot of patients ahead of us, the nurse was very efficient and moved quickly through the line. It is very convenient. (11/6/09)
MC, Dalton
Our two children needed sports physicals ASAP and we were advised by our doctor’s office to call Careworks that we would be seen quickly and at a lower cost as well. They were right and we were impressed. The physicals were very complete and the nurse, Diane, was great with the kids. She talked with them every step of the way. They enjoyed her and found her to be very interesting. (11/8/09)
LS, Moscow
I received excellent help from the nurse. I was able to get my physical as well as my TB test. You’re wonderful. Thank you very much. (11/9/09)

Great caring nurses. Great service. Love the location. I wish all grocery stores had this. (11/5/09)
RJ, Slatington
Shara Albrich was awesome. She saw us ASAP, was very good with my 10-year-old daughter, and was very helpful with directions on meds. She also remembered to ask me if I needed a school note. Thank you so much for your well-priced healthcare. (11/4/09)
AF, Schnecksville
I have been to this clinic before and I can honestly say I loved the service. Not only is it more convenient but it is open seven days a week. The best part for me is that my major doctor is in New York, so it’s great that I don’t have to travel all the time. And you take my insurance. (11/2/09)
MG, Stroudsburg
Great, convenient, useful service! Shara Albrich was exceptional. Went above and beyond the call of duty. A true asset to your company. (11/1/09)
JB, Neffs
I was quite impressed with the clinic at Weis Tannersville. By chance, I was able to have an injection there and found the PA very informed and he answered questions in a very thorough, friendly manner. (10/29/09)
JG
Everytime I go to the clinic I feel comfortable and know that I’m going to get good care. I’m an asthmatic and have numerous allergies. I can’t afford to see my regular allergist as I have no health insurance. I know my body and how the doctor has treated me in the past and going to Careworks has been a comfort to me. They have treated me accordingly and they are very caring. (10/29/09)
CL, Stroudsburg
Dorothy Wheaton was extremely professional, knowledgeable and friendly. I had not visited Careworks prior to this visit, and I was impressed with the level of service I received. It was very convenient, fast and effective. Ms. Wheaton is a great asset to Careworks. I will recommend Careworks to all my friends. (10/15/09)
MB, Hellertown
Dr. Ken Dotson is so nice and understanding. He actually listens to your problems and takes a real interest in them. He is very caring. He does not rush you and he is just “the best.” He’s calm, cool and collected. He is what doctors used to be years ago. Good job, Doc. (10/26/09)
DJ, Tannersville
Our experience with Careworks at Weis Market in Allentown, PA, has been excellent. We have used your facility many times and found a friendly, courteous and caring atmosphere. We are fortunate to have Janelle Sharma to aid us and for her loving care. (10/27/09)
Mr. & Mrs. RH, Allentown
Careworks is a great service for those of us who do not have health insurance in the United States. Physicians can charge up to hundreds of dollars for a simple visit. Thanks to Careworks, I was able to obtain a prescription for my asthma at a very reasonable fee. I only wish Careworks provided more medical services. (10/15/09)
RS, Tannersville
This was my very first visit to this location, and I was very impressed. My wait was not long at all. I got what I needed to get done, and I met a very nice informative PA-C, Ken Dotson. He gave me a lot of important information. (10/14/09)
LJ, Tannersville
Careworks is located in the same store as where I work, so it was convenient for me to go there. I did not have to call my family doctor to make an appointment. I was treated right away and the doctor was very helpful and concerned. Thank you for your quick and professional service. (10/10/09)
GS, Stroudsburg
I was very grateful for Careworks being there after working an eight–hour shift, not feel well and it was too late in the day to see my family MD. I was blessed that an angel, Shara Albrich was on duty and she knew immediately that I had pneumonia, began treatment and sent me for a chest X-ray which confirmed her diagnosis. She advised me not to work until I had a follow-up X-ray which was much better because of her excellent treatment. I usually go to see her now at the onset of URI because it gets so bad so quick due to my asthma. I’ve always been treated extremely well by Shara and her associate. She was excellent also. My husband has also been treated like royalty. Thank you, Careworks, for coming to the Lehigh Valley to help us. (10/10/09)
J & J S, Slatington
This was the best doctor visit experience that I have ever had! Quick, friendly, accurate and extremely caring, professional care. Greatly appreciate Careworks. (9/26/09)

Efficient, thorough, competent care at an affordable price in a clean environment. Thank you. (9/15/09)
MS, Schnecksville
The PAC, Ken Dotson, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He was genuinely concerned about my condition. The low cost of the visit was a relief as I have no insurance and being sick I have been unable to work regularly. He also made sure he gave me prescriptions I could afford to fill. This service is great. (10/5/09)
JC, Gouldsboro
Fast, efficient care close to home and the PAs are friendly and my kids love them! (10/5/09)

Excellent service. (10/5/09)
MM, Tannersville
In July I had to be treated for a severe case of poison ivy. Lisa Wippel was the person on duty. She was cheerful, kind, prompt and I felt I got very good care and personalized service. I commend her highly. (8/16/09)
GC, Winterhaven, FL
A friend told me about Careworks and said they take walk-ins without insurance as well. There were four people in front of me at the time, and I only had to wait about 40 minutes. Diane Whitcomb was very professional and approachable, easy to talk to and gave great advice to fight my allergies. I would recommend Careworks to others in need of quality, friendly care. (9/4/09)
KF, E. Stroudsburg
Shara Albrich treated me at your facility. She was terrific. She really understood my problem and listened to me. She called to follow up which I appreciated. She really knows what she is doing. I would use your facility again if I knew Shara was working. (9/18/09)
BJ, Macungie
Jill was very friendly and professional on this visit for the flu shot. She asked pertinent questions and administered the injection with me barely feeling it. She is always friendly. Many times on my weekly grocery shopping trips, I will stop by and if she isn’t busy, I’ll have my blood pressure taken. She is always ready to answer questions. (9/18/09)

Excellent service every time I go. (9/22/09)

A V-W, Effort
The Careworks we visited was excellent! My spouse and I were in need of a quick vaccination, as we were flying to an archaeological dig in Israel just a few days later. We were in and out in under half an hour. The nurses were very kind, as well—answering our questions and carrying on conversations with us both as we received our tetanus shots. We’d recommend the Careworks services to anyone! (916/09)
C M-G
Service was great. Wait time was minimal. Caregiver, Mary, was courteous and helpful. Have already recommended your service to others. (9/19/09)
DR, Tannersville
Talk about convenience! I have used the Careworks clinic approximately four times in the past two years. I have always been treated like a human being and not a number. The CRNP is knowledgeable and had a nice bedside manner. The longest I had to wait to be seen is approximately 20 minutes. They take my insurance, send a report to my family doctor and, if need be, they are able to write a prescription which I get filled at the same building! I highly recommend Careworks. (9/9/09)
DT, Greentown
I have referred Careworks, especially Diane Whitcomb, to everyone I have seen since my visit the other day. Quick, clean super nice and patient with my 3 children who came with me (ages 7, 5 and 3 ½). Thank you. (9/11/09)
JO
Fast, convenient services at affordable prices. The way it should be. (9/12/09)
DD
This healthcare facility is fantastic. My doctor was on vacation and her partner was off. I had bronchitis and couldn’t wait one more day. Because I shop at Weis, I knew Careworks was there. So I signed in and waited only about 20 minutes. The experience was fabulous! The nurse was so knowledgeable, compassionate and efficient. The office was very clean and organized. I was diagnosed with bronchitis, got advice I didn’t know before about my asthma and walked out with my prescription. I will use Careworks again! (9/11/09)
DZ, Clarks Summit
This service puts minor medical care into perspective. My doctor just moved to Philadelphia and my general doctor is 2 hours away. I knew I had bronchitis and didn’t want to wait weeks for an appointment with a new doctor. Ken Dotson was courteous and knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone. (9/3/09)
NL, Tobyhanna
Great service from Lisa Wippel at the Schnecksville clinic. (9/4/09)

Careworks in Clark Summit is a superb community resource and an exemplary and critical component of what the healthcare system in the U.S. must become. Thank you, Geisinger Health System, for leading the way in healthcare reform. (9/8/09)
WN, Factoryville
On July 4, I thought I had a sore throat, so I went to Weis in Schnecksville, PA, and bought Benadryl. I was going to go home and take my medicine. As I was leaving Weis, I talked to Lisa Wippel. She looked at my throat and said my throat was closing. She called Lehigh Valley Hospital ER and said I was coming there. I was in the hospital 2 days as my throat was almost closed. Lisa saved my life. She was so thorough and pleasant to me. She is dedicated. I stopped in to see her today and thanked her. I’m 80 years old. I live alone and if she wouldn’t have told me to go to the hospital, who knows how I could have reacted at home. Thank you for having these services at stores near us. It was Sunday and I couldn’t go to a doctor. (9/1/09)

I was very pleased to be treated at the Careworks facility in Stroudsburg on Friday, Aug. 21. Dr. Ramon Torres was excellent! Besides diagnosing my illness correctly, he was also very caring and professional during my treatment. We were on vacation at Shawnee and were lucky to use Careworks. I’ve already recommended Careworks to several of my friends who were also vacationing at Shawnee. Special thanks to Dr. Torres! (8/25/09)

I think it was a fantastic idea of providing, quality healthcare in the Weis supermarkets. Too often our ER’s fill up with minor scrapes, bruises, and other ailments. It is nice to know that I can just drive down the street to Weis and have a quicker turnaround with the same level of care. This was my first visit there on Aug. 11 for my daughter. The attending physician made us feel very welcomed. I’m sure I will go there again in the future as I have two daughters under the age of four. (8/27/09)

I attended Careworks in Stroudsburg on several occasions. My children and I have visited this facility over the past year and have always been received with a warm and professional staff member. The attentiveness and prompt response to questions and concerns were very appreciative. I have recommended your facility to my family and friends. Also, thank you to Ramon Torres, PA-C, for his assistance and professional advice. (8/19/09)

I was visiting family in Pennsylvania when I developed symptoms of a urinary tract infection. My son told me about Careworks and my husband drove me there. I was seen immediately, treated courteously and professionally and was on my way to the pharmacy 25 minutes later. The experience was worlds away from an emergency room visit and was perfectly appropriate for my care. (8/21/09)
MM, Tannersville
I was really pleased with the care I received on 8/10. Diane was very knowledgeable, professional and attentive to my health issue. As a nurse myself, I felt the care, concern and kindness shown to me was truly exceptional. She was thorough and explained the prescription follow up. This is my first experience with Geisinger and I was very impressed, personally. (8/10/09)
PM, Clarks Summit
The staff I saw was professional, courteous, and attentive. They are as great as our personal doctor. Would definitely recommend them. (8/10/09)
TG, Slatington
I was completely satisfied with the services I received from Careworks. Diane was very helpful and extremely thorough. I felt very confident that I was traveling safely. I had all the relevant shots, pill, etc. and was warned about all potential dangers. (8/13/09)
SL, Clarks Summit
Very convenient, short waiting time, very reasonably priced (for someone with no insurance), pharmacy right there. Overall, an excellent experience. (8/13/09)
CD
Professional, caring, personal, thorough, reasonably priced, rather fast response time; exudes confidence and is interested in me and my medical problem. This was like visiting my old family MD, a throwback to when medical service put the patient first—how refreshing and how rewarding. (8/3/09)
HH, Pocono Summit
It was a Sunday. Thank God for Careworks! My son did not have to suffer another day or night. He was able to get the care and help he needed right away. (8/2/09)
LL
I have had the occasion to use Careworks several times. Each visit was very pleasant and helpful as to answering any and all my concerns and problems. I would and do definitely encourage anyone who needs help promptly and conveniently to utilize your services. Again, I will surely use Careworks as needed for procedures you cover. The convenience and compassionate care are commendable. (7/30/09)

PA-C Kenneth Dotson is extremely attentive and very knowledgeable and caring. Mr. Dotson presented himself in a professional manner. I felt very comfortable in talking with him about my medical issue. You are very fortunate to have such quality of a professional in this service. Thanks for the excellent care. (7/28/09)
TR
I took my 87 year old father to your location in Tannersville. Mr. Ken Dotson took care of him. Mr. Dotson was wonderful and very helpful to me and my father. It was a true professional experience that not only provided needed immediate help but was a friendly personal experience. Thank you. (7/27/09)

I made the right choice going to the Weis Careworks in Schnecksville. The PA on duty, Jill Holter, saw me almost immediately and quickly made me feel at ease. She listened to my concerns and worked with me in choosing a medication I could tolerate. Normally doctors or emergency centers take forever to get help and I find them intimidating. This Careworks was a very pleasant surprise. (7/31/09)
CM
Jill Holter and Lisa Wippel are always very professional and very caring. Both girls always have a smile on their face. They also go above and beyond when it comes to both my children. Lisa actually was the one who got my three year old son to start taking his Tylenol without a fuss! (7/25/09)
DM
I didn’t have to wait. The nurse was very nice. Explained what I had to watch for. I had the shingles shot. I’ll come back again if need be. (7/17/09)
CS, Schnecksville
My boyfriend and I have both been treated at Careworks. The service was great. Everyone is kind, informative, helpful and all in a timely fashion. Thank you very much. (7/1/09)

It was a great experience. This is a very valuable service. I was on vacation and had to see a doctor on Sunday due to poison ivy getting out of control. You saved my vacation. The convenience of this service is beyond measure. I wish I had this service available at home. The doctor was fantastic. (7/8/09)

The doctor I worked with was extremely helpful despite the enormity of my specific case, a 10-country trip around the world. (6/14/09)

On Friday, June 5, I called the doctor's office in the a.m. about my son having an earache. Finally, after three calls to them and no return call back, it was now too late in the day for them to see him. I took my 11 year old to Careworks. We were seen quickly and it was an extremely thorough check up. We were explained to that his pain was not from an infection but from pressure from the ear canal. The visit was an extremely informative visit. He was prescribed a new allergy medication and a nasal spray. The PA was excellent - would like to see her again. (6/6/09)

Careworks in Clarks Summit is great. The line is usually short (if there is one!). I get some grocery shopping done either while I wait or after my visit. Ms. Hickok is very polite and takes time to explain my questions. Thank you. (6/3/09)
JS, Dickson City
Great outpatient facility--convenient, reasonable cost, wonderful idea, while you wait in a grocery store complete with paging system. You thought of everything, including your staff's ability to treat, diagnose and prescribe. Diane Hickok has always been very patient and a great teacher of health care info. Outstanding idea for an acute care facility. (5/12/09)
JL, Dunmore
I brought my mother in to Careworks as she was not feeling well. We met with Ken Dotson. My mother also has Alzheimer's. Mr. Dotson was not only thorough with the exam, he was extremely kind to both myself and my mother. It is extremely difficult to take her anywhere and the doctor's offices usually take forever. The service we received was wonderful and timely. Thank you. (5/20/09)
MB
I enjoyed my visit to Careworks. I did not have to wait to be seen. Ms. Hickok was very friendly. I felt very comfortable. I was in and out in a good amount of time--no delays. I would suggest the clinic to anyone. (5/26/09)
NC, East Stroudsburg
I have not yet hooked up with a family doctor since moving to Pa., so when I awoke one morning with an eye infection, I thought I would try Careworks. I was extremely pleased. Only a short wait and very professional and friendly service. I would recommend Careworks to everyone. Thank you. (5/27/09)
SM, Cresco
It is so comforting to know I can have health care seven days a week. I have used this clinic three times and am always satisfied with the service. The clinician is knowledgeable and caring. The wait time is minimal. (5/21/09)
AN, Center Valley
"On a recent Saturday, I awoke with an earache. The next day I was scheduled to return to school in South Carolina. I couldn't get a doctor's appointment for that day and didn't want to drive for twelve hours to school with an untreated earache.
The Careworks Convenient Healthcare Clinic in Clarks Summit was a wonderful alternative to a doctor's office visit. There was no wait time, the Nurse Practitioner was knowledgeable and professional, and I received the treatment I needed. I returned to college the next day feeling a lot better. I made the right decision to visit the Convenient Care Clinic and will count on Convenient Healthcare in the future. Keep up the good work," (2/22/08)

"I would like to thank you for a great job you are doing with your Convenient Clinics. My wife came down with sinus problems over the weekend, and visited your facility on South Cedar Crest Blvd. in Allentown. She probably would not have gotten in to see her family physician until mid week. She was seen and diagnosed within less than a half hour, and had her prescription filled and at home in less than one hour. This was very important to both of us because we had travel plans for the following weekend that could not have been changed. I would recommend your services to anybody who could use them. Once again, a special thank you for providing a truly wonderful and convenient service." (10/14/07)
R & L P, Allentown
"Thank you so much for the patient, compassionate and thorough care you gave me yesterday. I was so glad to be able to get medication and not be in pain all weekend. Careworks is a wonderful addition to the community! Thank you again." (10/16/07)
SK, Stroudsburg
"Careworks Clinic was the perfect solution for me since I recently graduated college and didn't have insurance for my first 30 days of employment. My job required me to have a physical and TB test before I started, and Careworks was the most affordable option for me. It was really amazing how I just walked right in and in less that 15 minutes I was finished." (8/1/07)
NS, Danville
"As a working mom of two small children I have found Careworks to be an extremely convenient healthcare option not only for my children but also for myself. The fact that Careworks is open on weekends and evenings, employs experienced healthcare providers able to write prescriptions, and enables me to take care of shopping needs if there is a small wait is a priceless convenience." (8/2/07)
LP, Clarks Summit
I went to Careworks for a very infected stye. Dr. Holter was the most approachable doctor I have ever encountered. Her personality made me feel comfortable enough so my blood pressure wasn’t soaring. She treated the stye proficiently and I’m now back to work. I’m a nationally known artist and I needed to see really quickly. Follow up was just as easy. A simple phone call will allow you to speak to a physician. If I would have called my primary care physician, the chances of her coming on the phone would never have happened. I highly recommend Careworks—convenience, courtesy and professional—that is what Dr. Holter brings to her office (and a lot more). (7/30/08)

Lisa Wipple, PA-C is an asset to your Careworks Convenient Healthcare at Weis Schnecksville, PA. I took my grandaughter, Lilyana Wagner, age 7 to see Ms. Wipple for a probable viral illness. Ms. Wipple was great interacting with Lilyana. Lisa’s clinical skills were superb. I am a registered nurse and this is of great importance to me that my family gets great healthcare for optimal client outcomes. I recommend Careworks and Ms. Wipple to family, friends, and collegues. You are lucky to have Lisa in your Careworks office at Weis King's. (11/16/08)
PM, RN
I want to give my compliments to Shara Albrich. Since the first time when I met her in walk in clinic, made me feel comfortable and treated me so good. She is very professional and a nice person in everything she did. Thank you, thank you. Thank you very much.
Maria I. Perez I think Careworks is a great alternative and a very convenient option to calling my family doctor. What I liked most was being able to do my shopping while waiting for my pager to buzz! The woman who helped me was very kind and extremely efficient. It was a breeze to then take my prescription next door to the pharmacy.... I got groceries, a check-up and my prescription all in a matter of 30 minutes! Best one stop shop I ever made! (1/9/09)

I needed a PPD for school at ESU, having lost my insurance. I found Careworks to be the easiest, cost effective method to use. Thank you! (1/20/12
HT, Cresco
I recently visited your location inside of the Weis market in Allentown. I was seen by Ashley Dudden and wanted to make your aware of how wonderful she is! She was very friendly, explained medication, overall was a great experience. I will be sure to refer friends and family, if they are ever in need of care. She had my husband and I feeling better in no time! Thanks for a great service when our family doctor was not available due to the weekend.

I was at the Careworks in Schnecksville by Lisa Wippel for a non-emergency issue, which occurred on a weekend, when my family doctor was unavailable. I was treated quickly and diagnosed and given a prescription to treat my condition. A very good experience from start to finish. I will definitely us Careworks again, if the need arises. (1/28/12)
LR, Emerald PA
My daughter was sick and it was a Sunday. Thanks to seeing the flyer at an appointment in Hazleton, we knew about Careworks in Mountain Top. Instead of driving to Danville to our pediatrician, we drove half the distance to Mountain Top. We received excellent care and best of all the medical records are linked to all of her specialists in Danville also. (1/29/12)
CH, Hazleton
If Careworks provider, Dianne Hickock, was having a bad day, you would never know. She always greets you with a smile and quickly gets to finding out what care you need. I am glad she is there and look forward to her care. Thank you! (1/29/12)
JS, Dickson City
Excellent service. I would recommend to family and friends. (1/30/12)
AG, Stroudsburg
I received excellent care at the Tannersville Careworks facility. I would recommend them to anyone and will definitely use them again. Thank you! (1/30/12)

Surprisingly, I did not have to wait long for a walk-in clinic. The provider was nice and helpful. (1/30/12)

I get great comfort just knowing that no matter when we happen to get sick and need help, we can come in and get on the road to recovery as soon as possible. The last three times someone in our family needed to be seen, we could not get an appointment with our family doctor. I appreciate Careworks and the great staff. (2/2/12)
CZ, Stroudsburg
Truly an asset to Mountaintop. I really enjoyed the visit with a very happy and friendly staff. My exam was total and complete – very well done. A great experience to not need an appointment and to walk in and be treated with such professionalism and friendliness. (2/12/12)
JM, Mountain Top
The service was very good. I loved the convenience of being able to walk in. I have five children at home and our pediatrician’s hours don’t coincide with the times the kids get sick. It’s good to know I have some place to bring them. (2/12/12)

Careworks was a convenient way to get treatment for bronchitis, when my regular provider could not fit me in. The nurse practitioner was personable, knowledgeable, and very helpful. Service was prompt. Thank you Careworks! (2/22/12)
SK, Clarks Summit
My family and I have found Careworks to meet our emergency medical needs on numerous occasions. What a blessing it is not to have to wait for an office appointment or seek care via an emergency room visit. I would like to take this time to commend Kenneth Dotson, PA-C on the care he provides. My great granddaughter, who fears doctor visits, is totally relaxed and comfortable when in his care. (2/22/12)
EM, Tannersville
Another wonderful Geisinger service! My first step (receptionist, weigh-in, etc.) was very friendly and comfortable. She was very helpful, friendly and efficient. The doctor was great, also friendly, efficient, thorough, and informative! What a fabulous system with fabulous staff. If I had to rate 0-10, (10 being the best), I’d give a 10+ + +! Thanks to all, great experience. (2/26/12)
BA, Lopez
I have been to Careworks numerous times. I have always had a good experience in my visits. Ken Kotson is one of the nicest and caring providers to have there. Always happy to see him in Tannersville. Thank you. (2/26/12)

I thought the provider was very thorough in evaluating my condition. She took her time examining me. I would continue to use Careworks as needed. Their hours are convenient compared to regular doctor office hours. (2/27/12)
NW, New Tripoli
I was extremely impressed by the physician who saw my daughter. He was very personable and explained everything to us in a very nice, easy to understand way. He took his time and was thorough, even checking lab work that had been previously done. I would recommend Careworks in Stroudsburg to anyone! (2/27/12)

I brought my daughter for her driver’s physical because insurance would not cover another one and the pediatrician’s office was $140 compared to $49. Nurse practitioner was very nice and personable, quick and efficient. Great experience! Would definitely come back and I am an RN myself. (3/6/12

A pleasant experience. Friendly, professional, fast service. I will recommend to others and will go again. (3/6/12)
