Review of Johnson Ci,


Wretched Healthcare
Star Rating - 3/5/2020
If you move here, you put the health and safety at risk. The healthcare system is abysmal. Compared to hospitals I have used in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia and South Africa, it is by far the worst. Wait times at the ER at Johnson City Medical Center are often more than eight hours. Wait times to see specialists are usually measured in months. You will not see an MD regardless of your medical condition, you will see an RN, or perhaps a PA. The life of you and your family will be at risk. I fear their reaction to the Covid 19 virus. This place is simply not worth the risk.

Agree. PAs are called "doctors" here. You will more likely see a PA than an MD. For some specialties there is only one doctor in the entire city. Advanced care or any complicated case will have be seen in Knoxville or Vanderbilt near Nashville (including most caners). There is a high incidence of cancer here, maybe due to the nearby chemical plant, although the chemical plant says there is no correlation.
