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.
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)
WS
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)
SP, Tobyhanna
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)
DA, Schnecksville
Your employees were courteous and took their time with me. It was very convenient and the service rendered was very professional. I will use them again when the occasion arises. (1/21/10)
AR, Allentown
Your staff is very friendly, personable and very attentive to the needs of their patient. Thank you very much. This has been a great experience. I am personally pleased and delighted to share about the wonderful care. (1/20/10)

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)

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)

Mr. Dotson was friendly, informative and definitely competent. It was a pleasant surprise to find such a high level of care in a small outpatient facility. (1/1/10)

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)

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)

Services were great, friendly and private environment. The waiting time is very short and I like the sign-up system that is used. (9/14/09)
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)
RC, Berwick
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)
GK, Springfield
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)
RO, Schnecksville
Very caring and explained exam step by step. Cheerful and friendly. Treated with respect. (8/10/09)

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)

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 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)

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)

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)

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)

"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)
SB, Drums
"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)

"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)

"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."

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)

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)
