Saint David's Carenow Buda

Nov 2023

Visited Dr. Hailer last week and she was such a help. She was so friendly, approachable and understanding. She prescribed me medication for my illness and I felt like my normal self after a few days. Highly recommend her! Thank you Dr. Hailer!

I went CareNow Buda yesterday. (I had been to ARC Urgent Care on 2/20 for sore throat and persistent cough. After taking recommended meds, I had no improvement. I tried to schedule another ARC Urgent Care appt., but they had no opening until 3/13!) CareNow Buda saw me immediately and they were awesome! It is a wonderful, friendly, excellent facility. I will definitely return when I need their expertise and care. We are so fortunate to have them on Main St!

Not ever the kind of place you want to frequent, but I think I've been here two (or maybe three) times since moving to Buda in 2020. It is what it is. A place you go for minor-ish concerns. I personally was without any health insurance for several years, so this kind of place is where I would go to solve something, for example a UTI I was experiencing (one visit) and a chest pain concern (another visit). I will say that the desk staff are not the world's nicest humans... which is a bit off-putting when what you really need in a time of crisis is someone compassionate and caring to calm you down or assure you you'll be taken care of. They're just kind of paper-pushers/cashiers (in my case, shoveling out $150ish out of pocket a visit, ouch). At the check-in process a clipboard with paperwork will be shoved into your hands to write down all your details, though some of it is done through your smart phone and it's all pretty annoying. And sometimes you'll end up waiting a good long while to see a doctor, depending on when you arrive (last time I went in promptly at opening at 8AM to be first in line). The actual doctors on the other hand are great; all of them have been really humanizing, good at listening, and even strike-up-a-conversation friendly (and they're why I'm leaving 4 stars). They're good about making sure your prescriptions get sent to your preferred location and will even send Rx's to multiple locations to get you a lower price! So appreciated when you're on a tight budget, seriously. Last time I went I asked about prices for getting an EKG and they were able to tell me exactly the cost I would be responsible for so I could decide if I wanted to go through with it or not. That kind of transparency is rare for a medical establishment, when so often these things are confusing and convoluted with insurance.
