Community First Health Centers

Community First Health Centers is a true asset to our neighborhood. As someone with limited insurance, I was worried about accessing dental care, but their sliding-scale fees and financial assistance made it possible. Dr. Torres did a fantastic job with my daughter’s cavity filling—she was gentle and took time to explain each step, keeping my little one calm. The office is welcoming, with staff who treat everyone with kindness and respect, no matter their situation.

They offer evening hours, which is a lifesaver for working parents, and the hygienists are thorough yet gentle. It’s clear they care about the community’s well-being, not just profits. A vital, compassionate resource we’re lucky to have.

The dentist is always great but this place has canceled numerous appointments on me the day before my appointment. Even after I have already verified that I will be there two days prior to my appointment. Again today my appointment was canceled for tomorrow only to be told that I can no longer go to the Port Huron office and will have to go to New Haven because the office is closing down.

I received a letter stating the office was closing the 26th but apparently it's closing now. Honestly tired of the run around from this office I would recommend going elsewhere if you don't want your appointments being cancelled last minute after you've already taken off work

Heather, the nurse practitioner, is absolutely incompetent. I saw her, with a complete, detailed list of my medications, in hand, to my first appointment that she said she’d prescribe for me to be able to continue my health care. For some reason, I then had to fight with them to actually get the prescriptions sent to the Walgreen’s on tenth for about 2 weeks. None of them are narcotics. None.

Then, when they did get sent to the pharmacy and I picked them up, I, for some reason, a prescription for something I don’t even need, and never in my life needed. An inhaler prescription my insurance covered for absolutely no reason. I’ll be sure to let them know this tomorrow actually… At the same appointment, I had her test me for approximately 40-50 things. When several tests came back out of range, it took a WEEKS for anyone to contact me to discuss. And now, she found it impossible to send a script for prescription strength Naproxen.

Every single time I’d go to pick up the Naproxen I’ve been prescribed for 15 years from other doctors, the pharmacy would tell me she sent them a prescription for over-the-counter Aleve! When she FINALLY sent the pharmacy the prescription strength, my insurance company ask for a prior authorization. One that, when she responded to the pharmacy, she ended up resending a script for regular aleve, AGAIN. I NEEDED THE NAPROXEN BECAUSE I DID 20 miles per hour into the concrete off my E-bike! And that’s been weeks ago…and I still don’t have my pain reliever! After SEVERAL attempts to contact her, I still don’t have access to my medication??? Then, as I, just recently, tried to refill other prescriptions, two of them are THE WRONG DOSE!! All I can say, to anyone, that’s thinking about using Community First as a place to receive heath care, is, please, for the love of God, DON’T risk it! They couldn’t care less if you actually receive proper health care. ALL INSURANCE COMPANIES SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THIS INCOMPETENCE at Community First in Port Huron, Michigan.

Didn’t listen to me sent in wrong blood pressure medication and won’t correct without me coming back in. As I’m paying cash it’ll cost me $200 in just doctor appointments for blood pressure medication that’s ridiculous.
