Michael Sampson, MD

I Asked My Best Friend ,Who Was His Primary Care Physician And Was He Completely Satisfied With The Care He Received . My Friend Highly Recommended Dr Sampson . I Was Pleased To Learn Dr Sampson Was Accepting New Patients . It's Been Almost 2 Months And I Have No Regrets ! It Took Me 2 Years Of Disappointments In The Quality Of Todays Doctors , To Find A Doctor That Is Patent Thorough Attentive And Informative When Addressing My Care !

Always a pleasant experience visiting this office. Everyone is personable, friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I know my health is is in good hands and I follow what I am told. This is a wise choice for an MD!

an office that runs on schedule. Dr Sampson is very attentive and great communication. very clean office and never any billing issue with insurance.

What's unfortunate is I can't actually leave a review for any care from the doctor as I was never able to even receive my first physical. After running around, jumping through hoops, switching insurance providers per what the front desk required and having several back-and-forth between my insurance and something called regal medical group, I finally got Michael Sampson as my primary.
This was all during open enrollment, however, the first availability he had was mid March.
Three days before my appointment I was told by the front desk, they no longer accept my insurance (the one that they told me to get) despite being within "regal medical group" (still no clue what this sub-insurance plan is??) and I need to find a new doctor.
Hours and hours were wasted on this, too bad I can't submit the therapy bill to insurance...

I feel so fortunate to have such a great and approachable Dr.
Easy to talk with. Open to listening to all of my crazy medical thoughts. Practical.

So grateful to have found such a wonderful dr.

He's the best most communicative doctor I've ever had. His front office staff, like most businesses is maligned by disgruntled people who I can only image have had one interaction with them. I've actually known them for years and they have been amazing for years over many interactions and visits, not just one incident. Yelp unfortunately recieves more reviews when people are angry. People who are satisfied and happy with a business are far less likely to send in reviews. And when they do they often temper their star rating because a 5 is reserved for perfection. Angry people feel disrespected and will start with 1s and 2s even though they are only evaluating one aspect of a business. Unfortunately, averaging them equally means the reviews are weighted toward the negative. The reality is that psychologists will tell you reviews are often a form of revenge more than an honest evaluation. Often times it's revenge from angry and unreasonable people who are not themselves being reviewed for their bad behavior. So, take any review with a grain of salt, as they say, and know that a 4 star review is more often closer to a 5 than its face value.​ As a part of the human condition, people look for negatives as well. Notice how people click on "helpful" more often for negative reviews than they do on positive reviews. We think negative people are more honest when the opposite is actually true. Negative reviews are more likely to embellish and exaggerate to get their pound of flesh. Positive reviews are generally trying to help both the business and the customer. Yes, we fear that the business is creating the reviews. That's much harder to do these days. Existing accounts with a variety of reviews are hard to generate. And the regular patrons may embellish because they LIKE the business and are happy with the service and have found friends and even people they may now consider family. Those are all great possibilities and where I want to be.

I can't quite review the doctor, but since his front desk staff lost my appointment and then blamed me for not confirming I'm compelled to give them a low rating. It would have helped their cause had they actually written my number down in the correct order...
Needless to say, they gave my appointment away and then refused my insurance cause I have a deductible.

The front desk staff is rude and downright demeaning, at the edge of insulting.
They treated me without any empathy, and made a point to explain to me that the doctor's time is more valuable than mine. They raised their voice and reminded me that I was the sick person (thanks for the reminder!)
I will never go back.
Considering the quantity of nice and empathetic doctors and their staff around, I do not advise anybody to go there.

Dr. Sampson is one of the sharpest and most knowledgable doctors that I have ever had. Cannot say enough good things about him. Very compassionate and caring with a great office staff!

After browsing Yelp, I liked Dr. Sampson for several reasons and, needing a new doctor after a move, tried set up a first appointment for a general check-up. When I first called, the assistant said that it would take her a few days to get me an appointment (what?), and she'd call me back in 1-3 days with the date. That was definitely a first for me, but I waited patiently...for a month, to never hear back. Still undeterred, I called back 2 months after the first call, and heard the same - additionally, that it would take at least 6-7 weeks before I could get an appointment.

When I never heard back from the second attempt either, I shrugged and moved on. Sampson might still be great, but he needs new staff.
