Angela is a very caring person, I’ve enjoyed having her as my Nurse Practitioner. Takes good care of me.

She is covering for our doctor who is retiring and she treated us like criminals. We have been going to same doctor fur 45 years, all our records are together, [omitted] years old and went off about controlled medicine saying our two prior doctors over 45 years should have been doings drug testing every three months- mind you, with all my severe medical conditions I’m already seen every two to three months, and my doctors know me- she didn’t. She ordered a drug panel 12 testing for every drug invented. Mind you same doctor, always with[omitted] 45 years, never a failed test, sent regular bases and she believes I’m a druggie. Not only that but the expense of the drug panel for a retiree’s income. It was unnecessary, rude, and another she wanted the test done within one hour of ordering it. It was a [omitted] from our house to the lab she wanted it done at. Also, no bed side manner and her tone in her messages was very flippant. I never want her to provide care for me EVER again. Matter of fact, scheduling tried to give my son an appointment with her and he went with me to my appointment and he refused even though it was going to delay his chemo treatments- he is terminally ill. [omitted] needs to get back to caring and compassion along with some common sense and less attitude. This doctor was not caring for us but tolerated us and failed to provide care for us. The stress she put us through, especially with my depression and anxiety due to dementia onset- a drug panel testing me for over 50 drugs- ridiculous. Maybe she should pay the bill!!!

Dr Angela Spraggins is a very knowledgeable and caring provider. She always listens to me, answers my questions, and I feel satisfied with my level of care when I leave my appointment. She’s real and has a good sense of humor also.
-
She was kind and caring, just did not spend much time with me, but it was not really necessary to.
-
She was very informative and was the first to actually listen to my concerns. I haven’t had anyone do that in many years. She seems to actually care.

She listens, and I don't feel rushed.

She knew nothing about my medical history. She sent a prescription to my pharmacy and my pharmacy has been trying to contact her to replace my prescription and she has not responded so I am still with no medication.

Just to be clear, on [omitted] I had a wellness exam with Angela Sparkins. I'm not sure the above-named person is the same person. Angela Sparkins was extremely attentive and thorough. She reviewed my chart and medications, and prescribed tests. This was one of the best Wellness exams I've had at Optum. Once again though, Angela did say I needed to get a primary care individual. How do I do that? Every time I call, am told there is no one available. I'm thankful that I am in good health.

What an amazing doctor you guys found! Please work hard to keep her on staff because I'm sure optum could benefit from keeping her! Very helpful in communicative with my medications and how to deal with health issues going forward. Best of luck to opt in to keep this doctor on hand, give her a raise I think she deserves it and I'm betting it'll help her stay during this time of doctor shortage.
