Cheerful staff that answered all my questions. I was also very pleased that there was no waiting time to get in and out in a timely manner.
November 01, 2024
I thought doctor Lara was very helpful and informative on everything we discussed. Seems like she really puts in a lot of effort to asking the right questions and listening to I what I have to say. Great doctor.
October 18, 2024
I was very happy with how soon I could get an appointment and the doctor was very helpful to me in many ways.
October 18, 2024
I really like my new primary care doctor! Thank you, Dr Lara
October 16, 2024
All of my questions about the health issues I raised were answered.
October 15, 2024
The phone call you recieve says the Dr has set aside this time to meet with you, your arrival time is..... On this visit it was over 30 minutes after that time that I saw the Dr. You should remove this and simply say your appointment is scheduled for this time. That way as a patient Im not expecting that my time is as valuable to the Dr.
October 09, 2024
It was a very long wait from being roomed to waiting for the provider to come in-more than 30 minutes.
October 09, 2024
Dr Ilyas is not my primary but saw me anyway which I so appreciated. She was wonderful- I loved her !
September 30, 2024
So glad to be able to get a same day appointment for an uncomfortable sudden problem.
September 30, 2024
As always wonderful thorough care
September 23, 2024
Dr Ilyas is very nice, pleasant and answers all my questions.
September 20, 2024
Dr. ILYAS is great.
September 18, 2024
Dr Ilyas was terrific.
September 17, 2024
I wish the medical system within Winthrop Medical, which prevails against other places of providers as well, would not require physicians to have to process patients in such quick succession that it seems like sometimes it can be a fast food order process of just getting in and out into the next patient, which I don't fault the physician for, but the wider system and reimbursement process, I suppose.
September 17, 2024
I had been going to the same doctor since I was a teenager. In the first visit at Winthrop family medicine, I felt more heard and more well taken care of than I ever did at my previous doctor.
September 16, 2024
I would like to see masks available at entry
September 06, 2024
Dr. Ilyas gave me the time and listened to how I felt about what was going on and I really appreciated it. All the visits with her, she has given me time, which right now is very important to me. Thank you.
September 06, 2024
Caring, compassionate
August 30, 2024
They take great care of me.
August 28, 2024
Dr. Ilyas is very thorough, making me feel comfortable about my health care and willing to discuss any questions that I may have.
August 23, 2024
Not having labs or imaging at the facility is a huge inconvenience. I was recommended to go have some imaging done but elected not to because of the wait at main general
August 13, 2024
The doctor that I saw Ilyas was terrific I'm so glad that I was able to see her and hoping that medicine that she gave me will really make a difference for me I really thank you so much for that thank you so much bye-bye
August 12, 2024
The only problem I have is when you have an appointment like for 1:20 but don't actually gets seen until 1:45, I understand that problems arise but things need to change.
August 09, 2024
I would really appreciate having the lab back in Winthrop. I think it's very important.
August 05, 2024
To be honest, I'm slightly bothered by your billing practices. I get billed for seeing my doctor and also billed for using the facility in Winthrop. I think that's a bit ridiculous and charged way too much.
July 22, 2024
I appreciate that my doctor really listens to me and always gives great feedback/advice.
July 15, 2024
Both my son and I had Lara Ilyas for our dr and I think she did amazing. She was very personable and easy to talk to, she had answers to our questions and if she didn't she looked into it. I really liked meeting with her and will definitely bring myself and my son back to her.
July 09, 2024
I find the family practice very easy to work with and very helpful, period. Dr. Ilyas is wonderful and knows my background and my history and is able to give me good information and advice as to what we should do next. Period.
July 09, 2024
She was a very kind doctor I liked her very much!
July 05, 2024
I was VERY disappointed that the lab/radiology office was closed. That was so convenient for elderly and practice pts.
June 28, 2024
Doctors come and go a lot try to keep the good ones they all seem to leave after a year pay them more to keep them . What ever it takes my doctor is great I hope my doctor stays
June 26, 2024
Dr. Ilyas has been working to help support our loved one. Trying hard to get us the help and resources needed to continue to keep her in her home. Thank you
June 17, 2024
Incredible experience with Dr. Ilyas the last few years.
June 11, 2024
Dr. Ilyas was super
June 04, 2024
I have been with the care team in Winthrop for years and have always been very happy with my experience. This week, when I asked to be seen quickly I was put into a clinic spot the next day. When I checked in I was greeted with a smile at the desk and seen by a fantastic provider (Dr. Ilyas) and her medical assistant. Even though I'd never met either of them before, they were familiar with my medical history, treated me like an old friend, and listened to me with respect. My questions were answered, my needs and opinions were validated and considered, and I left with a great plan for short term treatment of an acute respiratory issue. Thank you to the whole team for the great experience
May 31, 2024
Dr Ilyas always knows my medical history and listens to my questions and concerns. I'm very impressed with the care I receive from her
May 31, 2024
Winthrop health is a wonderful facility for our community. The doctor I saw was very professional, personable and timely addressed my medical issue. I felt very comfortable with her even though I had never been seen by her before. I was pleased that I could be seen the very same day I called!

April 22, 2024
Excellent. My doctor is wonderful. I want her to stay here in Winthrop. I know doctors leaving a practice is a common problem. I'm so happy that our doctors here are happy and stay. Continuity is very important. I could not be happier.
April 03, 2024
The doctor I had I am not a fan of. I've had her a couple times and feels like she does not listen. I told her I needed medication before I get worse and nothing. Of course I've been miserable actually worse
March 29, 2024
Yes, Dr. Ilyas was very professional and took her time. She had reviewed my chart and I didn't feel like I was being rushed or anything. I really, you know, liked how she came across and just was very personal and approachable and I felt comfortable asking her questions. So as a new patient, that really means a lot to me and I look forward to seeing Dr. Illyas for all my medical care needs in the future. Thanks very much.
March 27, 2024
This was the initial meeting with a new PCP. All seems fine but will need time to be able to provide substantive feedback.
March 27, 2024
The confirmation call said my doctor set aside the time just for me. My appoitment was800am, and didnt see Dr until 830am. My time is valuable as well.

November 28, 2023
Great conversation and totally happy with the Dr.!!
November 24, 2023
The voice message left for me said my arrival time was 11:00 a.m. for an 11:00 a.m. appointment. I arrived at 10:50 a.m., and was checked in probably. Was brought out back shortly after 11:00, but did not see the provider until 11:25. Also experience the delay while waiting for X-rays due to questions about how the X-ray order was written. I understand each of these could be isolated incidents related to emergencies or other concerns, however almost half my visit time was consumed with unnecessary, or perhaps avoidable waiting. People were cheerful and helpful, but I was not always advised of the anticipated wait.
