I like Dr Sarachek a lot, he listens very well and offers solutions to some of my issues and is willing to do some small things like your cleaning, get rid of skin tags that other doctors don't like to waste their time on. He's very helpful. He encourages me to get the ammonia shot and the shingles shot every time I see him. Last time due to his insistence I finally got the ammonia shot. I think he is a caring doctor.

Dr Joel Sarachek is always kind and caring. He takes time but we have to also give him information and be forthcoming on what we are feeling and experiencing. I have recommended him to a new patient.

EVERYBODY was so very nice and caring. I experienced no "white coat" syndrome. I was very satisfied when I left.

I walked in and was pleased with how attentive people were from start to finish, and how quickly I was seen. The doctor understood my preference not to medicate, and respected my choice. After asking me to do certain things with my leg, he told me what he had ruled out, and how I would address the pain without medicating. I followed his advice and the pain went away!

Very personable and knowledgeable. Confident in his guidance

DR Sarachek has been a wonderful doctor so far.

For this to be available at an urgent care and be treated with such kindness and consideration on the phone, at check-in, and with the doctor and checkout staff, I was completely 100% satisfied with the experience and I am feeling so much better.

Dr. Sarachek is the best dr I have ever had. He is so good at his job and after seeing him I always leave with peace of mind. Providence is the best clinic I've been to, and when I was worried about my health I got an appointment same-day. Really good streamlining process for testing and referrals.

Dr Sarachek is the best. Very helpful. Shows compassion and care.

This was a same-day appointment, so the doctor did a good job of listening to my immediate health concern & offering a helpful explanation.

The Urgent Care doctor saw me quickly and was able to get me out by lunch time.

I was in a lot of pain and had difficulty getting up and down and could not raise my arms above my head. Dr. Sarachek reviewed my medical history and current symptoms. He ordered blood tests and prescribed medication that greatly relieved my symptoms and pain. He referred me to a Rheumatologist for further evaluation. I'm very thankful he was the doctor at Urgent Care when I arrived.

Easy-peasy. Glad I went.
