"I had a great experience at CareWell Urgent Care Lexington. All administrative staffs and medical professionals are kind, thoughtful, attentive, responsive, professional, and excellent at providing the medical care I needed."
— LocalityBiz (Lexington location review)"My 80 year old husband walked in with positive covid test. They gave him a covid test, and it too was positive. But they would not prescribe paxlovid or anything else because they were not his primary care physician. We were new to this area and did not yet have a doctor. Crazy. Terrible experience."
