WORST PLACE EVER!…read more The doctors and staff here are extremely unhelpful and the office seems completely disorganized. According to the front-desk staff member I spoke with today, they apparently do not have a biller at all or anyone available to verify insurance coverage for medications. So when a medication is not covered by your insurance, they simply tell you that it is not their fault and that it is not their responsibility to verify medication coverage with the pharmacy. As the patient, you are left calling the pharmacy and the clinic back and forth yourself, doing the work that I believe the medical office should be helping with. This is extremely frustrating and creates unnecessary delays for patients trying to obtain their medications. When you call the office, you may find that the doctor has already left by 3 PM, leaving nobody available to properly assist you. The front-desk woman even told me to call back at 5:30 PM, but the office actually closes at 5:00 PM. Yelp also says they are open until 6:00 PM, but nope--the office closes at 5:00 PM. Overall, my experience has been extremely frustrating, and highly poorly managed. This is also one of the only places where you apparently need a phone appointment just to get a prescription refill. It feels like they are making a simple refill process unnecessarily difficult and turning it into another appointment. Save yourself the headache and avoid this place if you can.

This formal complaint to document a series of severe failures by your office that resulted in the…read moreinterruption of life-sustaining medication, unnecessary patient distress, and improper handling of pharmacy coordination and insurance requirements. This complaint concerns both process failures and staff conduct. On Monday morning, I contacted your office to address the urgent need for a prior authorization and refill of my prescribed medications. These medications are medically necessary for my survival--specifically insulin--and are not discretionary or available over the counter. During this call, I spoke with Josephina, who assured me that she would immediately contact the mail-order pharmacy, ensure the authorization was processed, and follow up with me. She explicitly stated that the matter would be handled and that I would receive a return call. None of these assurances were fulfilled. After two days passed with no medication, no confirmation, and no follow-up, I contacted the office again to request a status update. During this call, Josephina admitted that she had contacted the pharmacy a limited number of times and stated that she was "too busy" to do so on the day of my follow up call. This admission was delivered without apology or acknowledgment of the seriousness of the situation. At this point, I had already spent 48 hours in limbo regarding medication required for my survival. It is critical to note that I had clearly explained to Josephina that the mail-order pharmacy cutoff time was 12:00 PM, that insulin shipments could only occur Monday through Wednesday due to overnight shipping requirements, and that failure to meet this window would result in further delay and risk. Despite this information being clearly communicated, no action was taken. By the time I contacted your office again, I had been without insulin for approximately 26 hours. During my subsequent call, Josephina again stated that the issue would be resolved and that a coworker would send the medication to the mail-order pharmacy. I waited an additional two hours. When no confirmation was received, I contacted the pharmacy directly. At that time, Wanda, a representative at the mail-order pharmacy, informed me that only one medication was on file--and it was not insulin. At this point, Wanda remained on the line with me while I contacted your office again to resolve the discrepancy. During this call, I interacted with both Josephina and Araceli (Office Manager). The conduct I encountered was hostile, dismissive, and unprofessional. Despite being informed--by both myself and the mail-order pharmacy--that the insulin prescription had not been received, I was told the issue had already been "taken care of. " This assertion was demonstrably false. I had in my possession: Digital receipts from the mail-order pharmacy reflecting my visit and medications The mail-order pharmacist actively on the call Time-stamped confirmation from the pharmacy showing that insulin had never been received. My partner and the mail-order pharmacist were present for and witnessed the entirety of this conversation. Eventually, your office staff acknowledged that the initial prescription had been sent to the incorrect pharmacy. Rather than correcting this error, the situation was further compounded. Instead of properly resubmitting the prescription to the mail-order pharmacy, your office contacted a local retail pharmacy. My insurance does not cover retail fills for this medication, a fact that was clearly explained. I should not that the local pharmacy called to tell me directly. As a direct result of this action: The medication could not be dispensed. The retail pharmacy placed a hold on the prescription. My account was flagged for suspected fraudulent activity due to attempts to refill a mail-order-only medication at retail. When I relayed this information to your staff--while the mail-order pharmacist remained on the call and provided verifiable timestamps--I was met with further defensiveness, deflection, and what can only be described as active attempts to shift blame rather than correct the error. At no point did your office take ownership of the mistake. At no point was there a meaningful attempt to immediately rectify the situation. Instead, one error was compounded by another, resulting in nearly 72 hours of medication interruption, unnecessary escalation with pharmacies and insurance, and significant emotional and physical distress. I approached this situation calm, collected, and focused on resolution. I did not create this problem. I simply asked for a remedy. Your office chose deflection over accountability and escalation over correction. This complaint is being formally documented. If this matter is not addressed appropriately, my next steps include filing complaints with the Better Business Bureau, consulting legal counsel, and submitting reports to relevant regulatory and labor oversight bodies in California.

Hands down one of the worst medical experiences I've ever had…read more From the moment I walked in, the energy in this office was tense and uncomfortable -- and it didn't take long to see why. The doctor was openly yelling at her staff in front of patients. Not correcting. Not guiding. YELLING. It was embarrassing to witness and completely unprofessional. If this is how she treats her own employees, imagine how little respect she has for patients. She herself was rude, dismissive, rushed, and cold. Zero bedside manner. No empathy. No patience. Just attitude. I felt like an inconvenience rather than a person seeking care. Watching someone berate their staff in a healthcare setting is a massive red flag. A doctor should create a calm, safe environment -- not a hostile one where everyone looks afraid to make a mistake. The poor staff clearly walk on eggshells, and it shows. Medical visits are stressful enough without having to sit in a room while someone throws tantrums and talks down to everyone around them. There are plenty of doctors out there who are professional, kind, and actually care about people. This is NOT one of them. Save yourself the frustration and anxiety. Don't come here. Go somewhere else. This doctor is awful, and this office is toxic.

On the negative side, whether I choose the first appointment or the last of the day there is always a wait (and this is with an appointment). They are always busy and it's hard to get appointments on short notice. Also, it's been twice now that I have gotten ultrasounds to find out if I have cyst and/or fibroids and both times they have not called me or sent me a letter with my results at all. Both times I was told my bad news only during my annual exam months later. They need to get their act together and inform their patients. It would be much appreciated.

I am at a high risk for breast cancer and the fact that I can not get my MRI has kept me up at night and in tears. For some reason, Anthem will not accept my Carelon referrals. They think they are not valid, even though Anthem has placed me with a Carelon dr. Don't worry, I am also upset with Anthem - but Carelon has done next to nothing to fix this issue. I have called multiple times and am in a loop of explaining the same issue to every person I get on the phone. Anthem sent me forms I need Carelon to fill and send out to Anthem. I have faxed them to Carelon and it led to nothing. I then HAND DELIVERED the forms to Carelon, and still am not sure if they have been given to Anthem. I am out of pocket on doctors appointments that had a Carelon referral. I can not get an accurate referral for my MRI. I could go on and on. I called today and asked for a case manager, they informed me I can not have one because I am not a Carelon member but an Anthem member. At the end of the day, I do not care if I have a case manager. I just want my referrals and I can not get them because I am in a feedback loop. They clearly should not work with Anthem as they are not set up to do so.
