After COVID my thyroid gland went nuts - I experienced a lot "more" .. hair loss, insomnia, fatigue, muscle weakness and loss, extreme sensitivity to cold, numbness in a few fingers and toes, a hoarse voice, anxiety, no libido, and excessively dry skin, to name a few issues. Doctor Shah spent 1.5 hours with me on my first office visit, treated me as an individual (not an age), and listened attentively to the pain, suffering, and frustration I was going thru. He reviewed all the medical records I brought with me, and requested a panel of other lab work, along with a couple thyroid tests I never heard of before. Nine months later almost to the day, I am sleeping better, I awake each morning lighter and happier, my hair loss has stopped, I am back at the gym able to workout, and my hoarse voice is gone. Since the first visit, I have had 2 additional teledoc calls with Dr. Shah. He always ends by saying: "Don't hesitate to call me - on my cell - if you have any questions or concerns." What doctor do you know who cares about you as a "individual and not a number," gets you the results you are seeking, and provides you direct contact, anytime, via his private line..?!

I paid over $500 for appointments, all for Dr Shah to not finish my phone consultation. We got interrupted and he said he would call back. He had his receptionist call me about a payment needed and then when she mentioned his notes they were things he did not tell me. I mentioned how paying for an open ended consultation wasn't okay, she told me that it was open ended on my end because "it sounds like i want to have the surgery". But mind you I came to him telling him i didn't want to have the surgery. I don't mind paying for results, but not for an open ended consultation with no solutions.

I was told a prescription/order for my ultrasound would be sent, but no one followed through, which delayed my care and caused unnecessary stress. Good communication and timely follow-up are essential in a medical office, especially when patients are waiting for important testing. Unfortunately, this office did not meet those expectations. I hope they improve their responsiveness and make patient care a higher priority. This is now patient neglect

After struggling with infertility for 8 years and experiencing a failed IVF cycle, I came to Dr…read more Rubal feeling discouraged and searching for answers. From the very beginning, she truly listened to my concerns and took the time to investigate the root causes affecting my health and fertility. Dr. Rubal quickly identified several underlying conditions, including endometriosis, PCOS, insulin resistance, prediabetes, high cholesterol, and other issues that had gone undiagnosed for years. She recommended a GLP-1 medication as part of my treatment plan, and after just three months, I feel like a completely different person. While I am still on my journey toward pregnancy, I finally feel hopeful because Dr. Rubal is helping me heal the underlying causes rather than simply treating symptoms. She is an exceptional physician with extensive medical knowledge, profound empathy, and a truly compassionate approach to patient care. She listens carefully, communicates clearly, and makes you feel genuinely supported every step of the way. I highly recommend Dr. Rubal to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and caring doctor who truly advocates for her patients.

If you are struggling with recurrent pregnancy loss or infertility and want to find out the root…read morecause? Please reach out to Dr. Rubal! I suffered from 3 pregnancy losses and didn't know where to turn until a friend of mine told me about Dr. Rubal and how she helped her become pregnant. I saw Dr. Rubal in May 2025, where she intentionally listened to me and my husband and our experience with loss. She was kind and compassionate but also straightforward and to the point when it came to the diagnoses. We saw her 3 times to create a game plan, which included taking supplements and also changing lifestyle factors. She was aways available via her patient portal to talk about next steps. 4 months later, I am so happy to say I am 8 weeks pregnant and finally got to hear that precious heart beat! IVF wasn't an option since it is a financial stressor as well as something that didn't align with my values. IVF isn't a 100% success rate or guarantee you will be blessed with a baby. Going with more holistic approach will save you a ton of money and you will learn a lot about your health and body. I encourage you to listen to Dr. Rubal on several podcasts before hand so you can gain a sense of how much it may cost you vs IVF and compare the success rates between the two approaches. Please keep in mind, Dr. Rubal in a one woman show, so it may take 2-3 weeks for her to get back to your initial message. You may also have to wait a bit for your appointment time because she it so committed to all of her patients, she takes time with them and will do the same for you. And I know waiting any amount of time while trying to conceive it like a lifetime but be patient because she is worth it! Good luck!

Even after she orders bloodwork, we visit for results but instead we get told my grandmas hair is outdated and she needs a new hair style. I'm sorry yall, but is this a damn salon or thyroid specialist? As confused as she is why we even enter her office, I also am more confused myself as to why she's still practicing? She'll look you dead in the face and say you don't look good when there's nothing wrong. Idk yall your thyroid is in your hands, if you end up walking in her office, turn around and walk out. Good luck. It's just weird. Dont die, Save yourself.

My wife had an absolutely terrible experience with Inland Endocrine. She had made an appointment…read morefor last month but had never received any confirmations or reminders. When she had called to double check, it turns out that the appointment was never set, and the next available date isn't until February 2025. When questioned about why the appointment was never set, the receptionist states "that's why we encourage our patients to call in and check". So, based on this, Inland Endocrine expects their patients to double check their work and make sure they are doing their job? No patient should have to wonder if the office staff is accountable or not, and that they can properly set schedules. Now she has to wait an additional 3 months for an office visit. It's clear that patient care and accountability is not a priority here. Save yourself from the hassle and scheduling incompetencies and find an endocrine office that actually cares about their patients.

Interesting information about Dr. R. Alrezk, MD and Professional Bio:…read moreDr. Rami Alrezk, MD, MS, FACP is a triple-board-certified specialist in Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism, Geriatric Medicine, and Internal Medicine. He is the founder of the California Endocrine Center in Murrieta, CA. His pedigree is elite; He served as a Medical Director at the Cleveland Clinic and completed advanced fellowships at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), UCSF, and UCLA. Dr. Alrezk is not just a clinician but a researcher who developed the Geriatric-Sensitive Cardiac Risk Index, a tool now utilized by major health organizations to improve surgical safety for seniors. He is widely considered an expert in high-complexity cases, including neuroendocrine tumors and rare adrenal disorders. Peer Review: 5/5 Stars The Verdict: Dr. Alrezk represents the rare "physician-scientist" who successfully bridges the gap between high-level academic research and compassionate patient care. What Stands Out The "Triple Threat" Perspective: His background in Geriatrics, Internal Medicine, and Endocrinology allows him to see the "whole picture." He doesn't just treat a thyroid; he understands how that treatment impacts the heart and the aging process. Scientific Precision: Having trained at the NIH and Caltech, his diagnostic approach is more rigorous than a standard community endocrinologist. He is the doctor other doctors send their "mystery cases" to. Patient Accessibility: Despite his world-class credentials, patient feedback consistently highlights his humility and clarity. He has a knack for explaining complex hormonal feedback loops in simple, everyday language. Conclusion: If you are in Southern California and dealing with a complex endocrine issue--especially if you are an older adult--Dr. Alrezk is arguably the most over-qualified (in a good way) and capable specialist in the region. My Review: Dr. Rami Alrezk is one of the best physicians I have in my care team. He is very knowledgeable not only as an Endocrinologist and Neuro Endocrinologist, but he understands the importance of treating the whole body. For years, many physicians I have had in the past, wanted to just jump in and put me on medication that I couldn't tolerate. There was a reason for that, but he was the only one who knew why. He also does ultrasounds, liver scans and Dexa scans in his office himself, which saves time on a diagnosis. I have never experienced the level of care he has for his patience from any other doctor. I guarantee you will get the best care if you establish with Dr. Rami Alrezk. He's one of a kind and quite impressive. Thank you Dr. Rami, for your caring attitude and expertise.
