As someone who works in healthcare, can I let you in on a little secret: people who love their doctor and generally have good relationships seldom leave positive reviews. It’s hard to find a physician above 3 stars, even some of the really patient, quality ones I work with, because people who are angry tend to leave reviews. Don’t worry about google reviews and things, meet providers and be honest (and importantly, willing to accept treatment plans while advocating for yourself which is a tough balance, I know), and give them a shot. Atrius is great.

I don’t know and don’t need to know what kind of health issues you’re having, but nothing makes a healthcare provider roll their eyes faster than a patient coming in demanding certain tests without any tact. Explain your symptoms and how it’s affecting your life, and ask them to help you solve the puzzle. Treating sniffles and non compliant patients can be boring, come in and be real with your provider and be part of your own treatment plan and you’ll find the majority want to work with you regardless of your insurance.
