My husband went to this clinic late one evening in December 2014.  He was told they accepted his insurance (united healthcare) and he saw the doctor.  The doctor said he had the flu (no flu test was given) and prescribed very expensive Tamiflu.  Two days later my husband went to his internist because he was not improving.  The internist told him he had the rotovirus and to stop taking the Tamiflu.  When the bill arrived from First Choice it was over $1,200.  We refused to pay that ridculous and excessive amount for a twenty minute visit and an incorrect diagnosis.  First Choice had filed their services out of network with our insurance company.   We did offer to pay $400 to settle the account but First Choice refused to accept that amount.  Therefore we paid nothing and First Choice has reported the unpaid amount to our credit bureau in an attempt to harm our credit standing.  Their business model is deception and inferior service.  Stay away from their clinics for your own welfare - physical and financial.
