I
have
been
a
patron
at
two
branches
of
Xpress
Urgent
Care,
two
of
their
most
busy
branches,
per
one
of
the
representatives.
They
are
quite
efficient.
Like
any
human
institution,
some
employees
are
friendly,
and
many
are
strictly
professional,
which
is
fine.
My
wife
had
a
laceration
on
her
finger,
and
the
medical
professional
was
quite
skilled
in
stitching
up
the
wound,
while
chatting
to
reassure
my
wife
of
the
care,
in
about
an
hour.
Once,
during
the
recent
Southern
California's
biggest
storm
in
84
years,
the
office
manager
decided
to
shut
down
all
branch
locations
early,
due
to
a
fire
near
one
of
the
locations.
The
office
manager
was
concerned
for
the
employees
safety
on
their
way
home
and/or
for
other
reasons.
At
around
5:45pm,
I
had
made
an
appointment
for
6:25pm.
And,
I
even
arrived
10
minutes
prior
to
the
appointment
time,
at
6:15pm,
as
is
suggested.
Then,
I
was
told
by
the
receptionist
that
the
manager
told
him
to
only
finish
helping
the
ones
who
were
already
in
the
lounge,
and
not
to
accept
any
more
patients.
So,
after
failing
to
reason
with
the
receptionist
and
that
branch
manager,
who
told
me
to
wait
for
a
call
from
them
next
day
to
go
over
the
results
of
MRI,
I
was
sitting
in
my
vehicle
readying
to
go
home.
Then,
I
realized
that
something
was
not
quite
right.
So,
I
called
what
I
would
consider
the
senior
manager,
the
one
one
would
call
if
the
patient
is
not
received
even
if
s/he
came
to
the
care
center
prior
to
8:00pm
(closing
time),
and
reasoned
with
her.
After
some
exchange
of
ideas
and
information
of
what
just
took
place,
I
made
sure
she
knows
that
I
understood
the
reason
for
her
decision
to
shut
down
all
Xpress
Urgent
Care
Centers
early
that
day.
However,
I
let
her
know
that
from
the
perspective
of
patients,
it
was
not
quite
right.
If
they
were
to
shut
down
early
for
the
safety
of
the
employees,
then
they
are
to
care
for
the
safety
of
patients,
as
well.
I
believe
that
there
could
have
been
two
options.
1.
Contact
the
system
administrator,
and
ask
her/him
to
adjust
the
appointment
maker,
so
that
no
appointments
could
be
made
by
a
patron,
online.
2.
Call
the
patrons
with
the
current
appointments,
and
inform
them
of
the
situation
,
so
that
they
would
not
have
to
drive
through
rain
to
commute
to
a
care
center.
So,
after
reasoning
with
the
"senior
manager"
on
the
phone,
sitting
in
my
vehicle,
she
said
that
she
would
call
the
branches,
and
ask
them
to
call
those
appointees,
in
attempts
to
have
them
not
drive
to
the
care
centers
in
the
rain,
putting
themselves
in
danger,
with
no
avail.
At
this
point,
I
had
thought
that
I
had
spent
enough
time
and
effort
in
this
matter.
So,
I
quickly
moved
our
conversation
to
end
it.
And,
I
was
carefully
on
my
way
home
in
the
rain,
trusting
that
the
"senior
manager"
would
follow
through
on
her
response
to
my
concerns
for
the
evening.
Then,
I
received
multiple
requests
to
leave
a
review
for
Xpress
Urgent
Care
Centers.
I
initially
chose
not
to
leave
any.
But,
this
morning,
on
Labor
Day,
I
received
a
personal
request
from
the
"senior
manager,"
so
here
we
are.
I
still
recommend
making
an
appointment
prior
to
arriving
at
the
care
centers,
for
a
"xpress"
service!
Have
a
blessed
Labor
Day,
everyone!
And,
thanks
for
the
opportunity
to
share
in
somewhat
of
a
detail!
