They have required me to come in for multiple appointments just to state this and they refused to prescribe me my medications otherwise. Of course, I get a $500 bill after insurance for a short chat about how I have 2 prescriptions and I'd love to get them refilled. I inquired about the bill being so high, they passed me around from department to department, sent me chasing after answers to what I was getting billed for on my bill. No one could come up with an answer, the finance department couldn't match the codes on my bill to any of their documents. They reduced my bill to shut me up and then a year later asked me to do the same thing again. The worst part is, the number of times I've had to wait for them to refill my prescription. Here I am going off anti-depressants abruptly again because they can't do the most basic aspect of their jobs and I get no response when I call. Jody Gorman is my NP and I've never been assigned an MD. I am over this place, it's a sham.

I was not completely happy with my experience with Dr. Stuffman relating to a shoulder injury and…read morediagnosed as a torn rotator cuff tear. Although he correctly diagnosed my problem and my need for physical therapy, he declined to refer me to a physical therapist office. Fortunately, my health plan has a good physical therapist office available for referral and Dr. Stuffman did provide a general order for the therapy. The therapist was very competent and requested that I obtain an ultrasound exam from Dr. Stuffman for aid in understanding my injury and providing the right physical therapy. This required another visit to Dr. Stuffman. For the purpose of thoroughness in making his diagno-sis, I think Dr. Stuffman should have performed the ultrasound (a 15 minute exam) in my initial visit with him. Dr. Stuffman also provided no prognosis for my injury, albeit the physical therapist recommended that I no longer do my upper body workouts with 5 lbs. weights or more for fear of aggravating the torn rotator cuff. On the plus side for Dr. Stuffman, he provided a online video for doing physical therapy and this video mentioned "easy" may be better in doing physical therapy weight lifting. This advise was very helpful because I tend to do too much sometimes

I recently had a melanoma outpatient procedure with Dr Leong after my diagnosis was confirmed by…read moreDr. Kashani in the same office. Melanoma is a scary thing. I felt totally at ease with both doctors' expertise and reviews. Dr. Leong is a total professional and put me at ease throughout the procedure, telling me what to expect, giving me direction, and answering all of my questions. He communicates very clearly and in a very compassionate manner. I know my care is in good hands. I would highly recommend surgeon Dr. Leong, and Dr. Kashani. Nurse Dillon and PA Will are exceptional too! What a team! Thank you for the care and kindness.

Mohammed Kashani-Sabet, M.D 's melanoma clinic is one of the top in the world. I have chatted with…read moreseveral cancer survivors who praise this team, which includes Dr Stanley Leong, a noted, very experienced surgeon and Dr. Kevin Kim, a very experienced oncologist. Basically, their successful patients will tell you to 'do what they say." After a 5 1/2 hour surgery, Dr. Leoung met with our family and spent 45 minutes explaining the surgery, showed us photos of each step and the tumors he removed. He arranged for special post operative services and the lymphodemia specialist he sent us to is excellent. Dr. Leong has provided incredible care, and made himself available at late hours and over the holidays to answer our questions. ( If your are working with a surgeon, ask him for his cell phone number. If you can't get it, think twice about hiring your surgeon. The switch boards for most clinics just don't work fast enough if you are in an emergency situation.) I have read the negative reviews, and feel badly for the patients. The survivors I have talked to aren't writing Yelp reviews, they are in Mexico or France enjoying their lives, after several years of surgeries, scanning, etc. Surgery is horrible, success is not assured and every patient responds differently. I don't think we would have gone forward with the surgery if we had all of the gory details before hand. Surgery can create other problems, like lymphodemia, which are in themselves life changing and a major daily hassle. Surgery is an essential treatment to give the patient a chance of survival with immunotherapy. Cancer treatment is a calculated risk. I am glad we are with a team who is very experienced. Cancer care has undergone a revolution in the last several years with immunotherapy treatmen. Mohammed Kashani-Sabet, M.D 's melanoma clinic is involved in cutting edge trails and are published. They are very current on treatment options, and the risk trade offs. These folks provide a caring, high expertise service to folks at a most stressful point in their lives. But cancer treatment is rough physically and psychologically, and you definitely should get second opinions on their recommendations. Not everybody has success despite expert advise and care. Cancer treatment seems to involve trade offs with varying odds of success. It's really hard to find good social service support, and they don't really offer that, and that seems to be the case for the whole Bay Area. They are hard to get an appointment with, with long waiting lists, so don't delay in getting on their calendars. You want to catch your cancer as early as possible.

LOVE. I had a terrible experience with another doctor earlier this year (they made a massive mistake - I'll leave it at that), however, it's all good because it led me to Dr. Schwartz. (This is exactly why I love life - you get a little bad, and then a lotta good...just be patient and don't forget to look for the good!) When making my first appointment, the person at the directory wasn't too confidence inspiring. I got a lot of "uh..." and "umm..." before he said, "he's barely ever here....it's gonna be awhile...." Oh, boy. So I get bad news AND the dude who can help me isn't available? Great. I ended up landing an appointment within a couple weeks from that call, and I've seen Dr. Schwartz several times since then. I honestly don't even know where to start with him. He blows away every stereotype and bad experience I've ever had with doctors or the medical profession in general. Dr. Schwartz listens, is caring, is never dismissive, thoughtfully answers EVERY SINGLE QUESTION (including all the ones I start with, "So, I know I shouldn't but...I googled......."), is funny, unbelievably accomplished, methodical and thorough, knowledgeable, kind - should I go on? While his original assistant has since left, his new one (Mazie) is just as lovely, and all the nurses are great, too. My one nitpick is the wait times. I book early in the morning and still haven't been seen in under 45 minutes. That's rough when you work 9-5ish. That said, Dr. Schwartz never rushes the appointment, and for that I'm grateful. Expect to spend a couple hours here, and know that it will be well worth your time. I couldn't be happier to have found him, even if the road *to* him was less than great. PS I dare you to find a more accomplished doctor (just google him!). Anyone else his age would be sipping margaritas on an island somewhere, yet he's still going 200MPH and is in the process of writing a textbook for medical students, on top of everything. He's unstoppable.

When I was referred to Dr. Horoupian by my other doctor to address a minor prolapse and damaged…read moreligaments before the problems became more severe, I was cautious. I did six months of physical therapy (though you can't really fix ligaments that way) first, and then decided to proceed with surgery. Dr. Horoupian is a conservative surgeon - he gave me all the facts including what was likely to happen if I did not do the surgery, and then declined to recommend one way or the other because he said it really needed to be my choice. He suggested I go and talk to my family and friends and other providers and when I'd made a decision to let him know. Having worked professionally with surgeons for years this was pretty refreshing, and allowed me to have confidence in my decision. I am now a bit over a week out from surgery, and despite having some complications am recovering well. I worked with Dr. Horoupian at the hospital I had the surgery at several years ago, and I remembered him - because he was one of only a few surgeons I never saw yell at or be rude to the nursing or other hospital staff. It's really challenging to work within the American healthcare system, and while I had a couple of things that I gave Dr. Horoupian direct constructive feedback about* he is a brilliant and humble surgeon and I am confident that I received the best care possible. He and I went back and forth about keeping in the foley catheter overnight after the surgery as I have PTSD and thought it would trigger a flashback, and we ended up agreeing that I'd tolerate it for as long as possible but could request that the nursing staff remove it overnight if I couldn't tolerate it. This allowed me to advocate for myself with the evening shift nursing staff when the line was kinked, causing me pain and discomfort, to have the catheter removed. I had friends stay with me in the hospital and one was an RN and one was a PT, and they were all also impressed by not only the care I received from Dr. Horoupian and his team but by the anesthesiology team, the surgical and pre op nurses, and the hospital staff. I haven't worked in hospitals since pre-covid and all of the staff were very obviously doing their best to work together, take care of me and the other patients, and follow protocols. I was surprised that was also very trauma-informed, and as someone with PTSD that includes past medical trauma AND as someone who previously worked at this hospital (so saw a lot of behind the scenes stuff), this was a pleasant surprise for me. I'd come in prepared with literature to back up my requests for what I knew I needed and instead of needing to prove anything the teams just ... listened to me. It was actually pretty amazing. (*The minor issues I had include some of Dr. Horoupian's office staff not being responsive - likely due to being very busy, and there being conflicting info given by Dr. Horoupian and others - likely due to automated info being added to my discharge instructions by the electronic health record.) I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Horoupian to any and all people I meet who are looking for a surgeon of his specialty, and I am also very grateful to him and his teams for the overall excellent care they have provided me. I am also very grateful to Dr. Anna Frick for recommending that I do a consult with Dr. Horoupian.
