About Athens Family Medicine
Athens Family Medicine is a long-standing practice with many patients who have been attending for decades. While some reviews mention wait times that can extend 15 to 30 minutes past the appointment time, many patients explain this is because the physicians are rare in how thoroughly they listen and give patients the time they need to express themselves. Both Dr. Haver and Dr. Shiver are noted for this approach, with patients describing them as conscientious, never in a hurry, and possessing excellent bedside manner and medical knowledge. The practice is described as having a great whole staff with little turnover. A specific nurse, Sandra, is repeatedly highlighted as being beyond awesome, stellar, and working very well with the doctors, sharing a great sense of humor. The waiting room is noted as nothing special, but pricing is considered fair. Some feedback suggests the practice may take on many patients, which can affect quality of care for those who are not assertive about their needs. Overall, despite some critical reviews, many patients report never having a bad experience and highly recommend the practice for its caring, attentive, and knowledgeable physicians.

I see a lot of bad reviews but I personally have never had a bad experience here. I usually see Dr. Haver. I arrive about 15 mins early in case there is any paperwork to fill out and have never waited longer more than 15 to 30 mins past my appointment time.
