My husband and I went to see Dr Anders for his constant coughing. He had been to our family doctor and had rounds of antibiotics and other remedies with no results. His staff is very nice and helped us complete all the paper work with a very short wait. They gave him a initial breathing text and scheduled a meeting with Dr.Anders later in the day. We did a telemedicine appointment and the doctor ordered blood tests and cat scans and X-rays. He did it immediately which I appreciated. He was very nice and listened to my husband. He explained everything that he was testing for and what might be causing his cough. We have a final appointment this month. We are pleased with Dr. Anders. The office is located downtown and easy to find. read more

Best lung specialist I have ever been to! Their office isn't in the greatest area but he and his staff totally make up for it! I have never been to a doctor that cares so much and takes his time with you. His staff called me that afternoon to follow up on medication and such. Awesome, awesome! read more

Fuck this guy. He's useless. At mercy sw icu while my mother was having a heart attack he stood outside and casually watched the staff try and bring her back. Never once did he ever say anything positive to the family about his patients. He's worth no more than shit stuck beneath the sole of my foot. He's below sub par. read more

We were patients of Dr Alam for many years. He's a great doctor, but over the years (most notably…read morefrom 2020 on) his staff has become lazy, incompetent, and some downright lie and are rude. We haven't been able to get in to see Dr. Alam for well over a year (at least). He has been out of the office and his stand in doctor is also very knowledgeable, however you will absolutely wait in the waiting room at least an hour to be seen. Costco calls them for refills and they ignore it every time until I call them directly and push to get medications filled. The staff acts like they own the practice and make all the decisions. It's obvious no doctor is really running that office. I watched a couple staff members speak to the stand in doctor so disrespectfully! I was shocked. I have worked with doctors and would never dream of talking like that to them. I once called with a potentially serious medical issue and needed answers right away (and stated the seriousness). I called a second time after waiting for hours and still no help. I called our cardiologist office for help at 430 pm and they said they would get back to me. They called me a few times in between to let me know they were working on it, even after 630 pm they contacted me with the answer. Dr. Alam's office, despite the seriousness of my call, NEVER called me back. My husband had a check up with blood work and everything but needed a surgery clearance for another doctor. I called to request the clearance ASAP as it was 2 weeks to the surgery and they wouldn't schedule the surgery until they had the clearance. It took the full 2 weeks (calling every day, multiple times) and actually going to the office and sitting there while they got the clearance signed. We have since switched physicians where our health needs and concerns are met and the staff is competent. I would never again recommend this office.

He is patient and compassionate the best traits to have in a doctor. He goes above and beyond. All his staff are nice and helpful. They are always there to answer questions.

To me it's just fine, anything not to have to drive to Bakersfield. His office in Bakersfield is very nice and clean. I don't know what I would do if and when he decides to retire. I can't imagine him not being my Doctor.

Very good over night employees. I had two sleep studies and felt like they know their stuff.read more

My partner needed his wisdom teeth removed - never a fun thing. I was hoping he could go to Dr. Koh…read more(highly recommend) however his insurance was not accepted there. Harouni and Hughes were suggested from his insurance. The office was small and crowded, several parents with their teenage kids nervously awaiting their procedure. The office was so small, you can hear just about every sound from the surgery rooms - clanking metal, drilling, grinding, you name it. This all made me a little queasy. It's obvious the doctor makes surgery days and schedules everyone back-to-back. It was like a drive-thru for wisdom teeth removal. My partner went back and about 45 minutes later was being wheeled out. During my wait, I was wondering when they would give me instructions / care information. It wasn't until he was being ushered into my car that they handed me a piece of paper with some info. I would have appreciated someone going over this while I was waiting, since my focus was on caring for my semi-conscious partner. I only have one experience of wisdom teeth removal myself and to be honest, I don't remember much. But after witnessing the post-care, I can't say this is a place I recommend. This doesn't even include some of the issues my partner had such as dry-socket and tooth particles still in the cavity. We also have had some issues where they incorrectly misbilled his insurance - a nightmare on its own. If your insurance allows it, you may be better off elsewhere.

All things considered, a great job by all ‼And oh yeah you too Cynthia thanks ‼

Make sure your find a dentist you agree with morally and if something seems off, do your homework. They tried to tell me my 7 year old son needed 8. Eight!!! Root canals. We brush teeth daily, twice a day. To say I was shocked is an understatement. The dentist was rude and unprofessional to boot basically saying it needed to be done right away. Something felt off, I felt nervous and decided to get a second opinion. I'm genuinely so happy I did. He needed 2 cavities filled. No root canals. How scary is that? Dentists truly have free rein to claim services are needed and cannot get in trouble. Maybe because it's subjective? I'm not sure; but NEVER go to one of these places. They are out for money and do not care if your child is the one that suffers.
