Avoid Blue Ridge Family Physicians. It's not the doctors that are the problem there, it's the billing department. They stuck me with charges I didn't know I'd be stuck with and then didn't tell me I owed them money until the next time I made an appointment, one of their employees tried to discuss my private medical records in the middle of the waiting room in front of other patients, and they have somehow decided to turn my account over to a collection agency even though I have been making regular payments to them for months and they just deposited my last payment a week ago.
A very poorly run business.
Pros: location
Cons: very poor customer service and billing department

My husband and I have been going to Dr Arvind Jariwala at Blue Ridge Family Practice since the 1990s. We never have to wait longer than a day for an appointment and are usually seen within twenty minutes of our appointment time. Dr Jariwala listens patiently and explains problems, possibilities and medications succintly and clearly. He is personable and has a good bed side manner.

The last time I went to Blue Ridge Family Physicians they had me do a urine sample in a drinking cup, and had apparently lost 4 other patients, mistaking me for those patients repeatedly.
Yesterday I called them and left a message requesting an inhalor for my asthma. They called back 7 hours later and left this message
"You have been to the office since may, if you would like an antibiotic prescription please set an appoitment".
Ok, an inhalor is NOT an antibiotic, and as an asthmatic without one I could die. Asthma isn't somehting that goes away so an appoitment isn't going to change the fact that I need one, and its not like its realy a "controlled" drug. there arn't kids out selling them to their friends.
So, they won't write the prescription, but they will call and talk about scheduling an appoitment where I can give then tons of $$?
These people seriously dont have their act together. Stay Away...stay very far away...

Blue Ridge Family Physicians PLLC is a large medical practice located near Rex Hospital. Even with a large number of doctors, appointments can be hard to schedule. However, I have received nothing but great care from any doctor or physicians assistant that I have seen. The nurses are friendly, but the office staff can be a bit short tempered. The waiting room is large and has a play area for children, but there are no magazines.

I went to blue ridge when i first moved to town and was looking for a heath care provider. I had to stay on hold for about an hour in order to make an appointemtn. During my appointment I was mistaken for 4 other patients, whom the nurses had apparently misplaced.
My urine sample was done in a styrophome drinking cup...
Entire staff (which I encountered) seemed increadible incompetent
