    I felt extremely comfortable with Dr Alves and I was in minimal pain after my procedure! Highly recommend him!

    Dr. Abdulhai and his staff are simply the best!…read more He is always thorough and works well with other Dr.s to ensure you're getting the best care. Sam is also so welcoming and on top of it. Thank you!

    I am currently giving this practice three stars, although I plan to give the doctor and staff…read moreanother opportunity before making a final judgment. My initial experience with Sam, the nurse practitioner, and the physician assistant was very pleasant. They were warm, professional, and made me feel optimistic that I had found a family practice where I could establish long-term care. Unfortunately, my experience changed after my laboratory results became available. A receptionist named Britney called me and immediately began discussing my results without first asking whether I was in a private place or prepared to receive medical information. I was at work and had to interrupt her and ask her to wait while I moved somewhere private. I had assumed she was calling only to schedule a follow-up appointment. I believe staff members discussing medical information should always confirm that the patient is able to speak privately before sharing results. When I returned for my follow-up appointment, there also appeared to be some confusion at the front desk. Although I had confirmed my appointment the previous day, the doctor stated that he had not known I was coming and had taken another patient before me. He apologized, but the delay made me late for work. Once I was called back, the process felt rushed. I was quickly directed onto the scale and then placed in a room with a medical student. I was not asked whether I was comfortable having a student participate in my appointment. The student repeatedly described my hormonal status in a way that did not match what I had previously been told, and our discussion about vitamin D supplementation felt dismissive rather than collaborative. I was also uncomfortable with the student shifting and rocking from side to side in my peripheral vision while the doctor discussed some concerning health information. That made an already stressful conversation more difficult. Later, when the doctor returned and spoke with me privately, the interaction was much more comfortable. He was pleasant, made eye contact, explained things more clearly, and ultimately did a good job addressing my concerns. I wish the receptionist had demonstrated a better understanding of patient privacy, that I had been asked for consent before a medical student joined the appointment, and that the visit had not felt so rushed. Staffing problems, scheduling confusion, and the absence of a manager may explain why the office was having a difficult day, but patients should not have to absorb the consequences. Overall, the doctor handled the appointment well toward the end, and my first visit with the other clinical staff had been positive. I spent considerable time researching family-practice physicians because I hoped to establish ongoing care here. For that reason, I am willing to give the doctor and the office another chance before deciding whether this practice is the right fit for me.

    Yesterday I had an appointment with Dr Dev. I got there 18…read moreminutes BEFORE my appointment and checked in. But it was freezing inside bc they had the AC on to its Arctic Setting. But I waited. The nurse wearing a warm sweater got me at 5 minutes after my appointment time took me in the exam room ash's wanted me to disrobe for the ekg and I said it was freezing. She got me an old airline type blanket, I said thank you. I thought I had an appointment with Dr Dev bc that's who I called, that's who's name I made the appointment with and especially since he called me at my home the night before the appointment to confirm I was going to show up. Funny thing... I saw he was in his office but I NEVER was seen by him... NO... I was seen by his nurse practitioner. WTF?? I'm just trimming to get approved fire a minor surgery to change my battery for a pain stimulator for my back, I've never had any heart problems, some have any heart complaints, yet the "not a doctor, nurse practitioner" wants me to undergo a 45 minute stress test for something even she told me I don't need to worry about but I need the stress test just to make sure. WTF? I don't have high cholesterol, diabetes, abnormal for me lab tests, cardiac complaints or ??? but I need a stress test that I can be given something to keep me calm when I have this test. That's all I need to get my battery pack replaced... so why can I get " relaxed" for them and not for the doctor that does see me that just needs to change my battery. I don't know, I do know that Dr Dev doesn't give a f%#k about me bc he never saw me. He never said a nurse practitioner was going to do his job even though he personally confirmed our appointment. And me, I really don't think a nurse practitioner is the same thing as a cardiac specialist. Good for them that they continued their education and became a NP but I didn't have an appointment with them. The doctor I had the appointment to see was there but never saw me or even told me Jack squat and now his NP wants me to get an expensive Stress Test? Is this the face of modern healthcare? Is there a way to give a score lower than 1 ?

    Great Cardiologost Saved my dads life…read more Director of Cardiology at Los Robles Very nice too. Thanks Dr Dev
