Dr. Stephen C. Youmans's Online Review Report Card

I've been seeing Dr. Youmans for years as well as seeing NP Lindsey Hammett on occasion, and have always had a positive experience. Both take their time to explain a situation as well as thoroughly answer any questions.

Dr. Youmans has been a great doctor for my parents. Unfortunately today when I talked with Jessie she was beyond unprofessional. She suggested if we weren’t happy to find medical attention somewhere else. Also she expressed that she did not understand how we were feeling about the lack of help given to my parents during Covid and made me feel as if we were the only patients that have felt this way! This isn’t the first time that she has come across rude to patients.

I understand that PAs carry most of the load these days. But I have little to no confidence in Dr. Youman's front office staff and one particular PA that seems to be on a "power trip".

I have been a patient of Dr. Youmans for over 10 years ! Best doctor in Aiken! I fully recommend him and his staff. Dr. Lindsay Hammet is very good too - she has treated my wife, daughters and myself at times as well! They are very thorough and always give us wonderful quality care. We are very blessed in Aiken to have doctors of this caliber.

I've been a patient for 5 years and am very satisfied with the level of medial service. I recently had a urgent medical issue, called for an appointment to see Dr. Youmans and was worked in the schedule that day. While I may have to wait sometimes beyond my appointment time, he always provides me the individual time needed to meet my medical needs.

Was seeing Dr. Lindsey for a chronic stomach problem, no help or results. It wasn't until I saw Dr. Croft that finally got results. He literally saved my life! And he made two follow up calls to check on me while in hospital. He is awesome.

Dr. Youmans was a great family doctor to my whole family. I would definitely recommend his practice to anyone in Aiken.

I was hopeful about this practice but I feel pretty unsettled about my experience. I am new to the area and I went in for a physical but also wanted to touch base with what would hopefully be my new primary care provider about other routine care. The nurse that called me back seemed flustered and stressed, I thought maybe she was just having a rough day, and tried to make small talk anyways. Unfortunately, her bedside manner did not improve. She said they were very busy. When I was waiting in the exam room I read lots of notices on the room/taped to the back of the door about their medication refill policy. To me, it came off harsh, I understand that offices have to have boundaries and protect the best interests of their patients,but again, this seemed over the top. The Nurse Practitioner was kind, but when I asked about having my medications filled with her as my PCP, she said I’d need to make another appointment, even though I was sitting right there with her. (I would have been fine with an additional charge/fee on top of the physical.) I decided not to go back to this practice, and keep using my PCP in my old town until I find another doctor. When I spoke to my local pharmacist about the requirements this practice had for getting medication, she was baffled by the medication policy as well. Ironically, perhaps this office is so “busy” because of this weird policy, and maybe if they weren’t so stringent about it, the nurses wouldn’t feel as stressed, and patients would have a better overall impression. At this practice, it was very clear that I was being served because I was paying for it. The policies of the practice make it seem as though their primary concern is billing, not wellbeing of their patients. I hope that this will change.

Lindsey is awesome. If I was seeing her on my visits you would get a 5. Seeing dude you get a 1.

I’ve been going here for over 11 years now. Just a steady decline in service. At one time this was a fantastic doctors office.
