Ratings and Reviews

Love all the doctors we've seen at jchc. We come from Ottumwa to doctor there.
She genuinely seemed concerned about my issue and wanting to help. Listened to everything I had to say and answered all of my questions. Explained everything I had to do including upcoming appointments, results of swab test and the medication she prescribed. Great bedside manner and wonderful personality. I definitely felt calm and relaxed with her. Hope to see her again.
I went to the walk- in clinic for a suspected UTI. The day before my visit (Sunday) I had strong symptoms. They were lighter on the day of my visit. I went in anyway to initiate a culture that takes 3 days before a result. Based on my lighter symptoms the nurse practitioner did not prescribe an antibiotic without knowing what bacteria was causing the symptoms. This was very smart to protect my micro-biome. The culture turned out negative so the right decision was made. Current diagnosis is (home grown) isProstate inflammation . Going with recommendations from ChatGPT. Seems to be working. I'm impressed with the nurse practitioners that I've met in the walk-in clinic.
