I had several very bad experiences at Mission Advanced Pain Ctr. with Dr. Beshai and his staff. I…read morehad degenerated neck discs and had been in therapy for several months, had seen neurologists , neuro surgeons and others. Someone showed me a list of doctors specializing in helping the pain management. Unfortunately I selected this office and doctor. I waited several months to see him. When I got there a woman (Dr.?, Dr.'s assistant?, not really sure) saw me, asked questions and she filled out papers for 10-minutes, maybe more. I wanted her to know I had a muscular disease and was receiving shots around my eyes (she wouldn't let me finish my sentence) and she yelled at me "NECK" ! I ignored her rudeness and attempted to finish. Again she would not let me finish my sentence and raised her voice in a nasty tone and yelled "NECK" again ! " I guess my sentence to say they sometimes they gave shots in the neck and I was making sure a Dr. knew and my health would not be jeopardy was of no interest to her or the staff. She told me to go make another appointment. I was shocked. They made me wait for 2 months, maybe more , and they were not going to do anything. I complained to the girl at the desk and she said "Oh we just had something come up next week". I came the following week (thus far no one has told me what they are going to do, the game plan, I knew nothing about the procedure, effects, follow up ). I came in someone told me to lay on the table. In fairness, my first few minutes with Dr. Beshai was good. He told me there would be a pinch and he even asked me if I was okay after the shot. Then he turned around without explanation and started to leave. I asked "May I ask a question?". I started to tell him the 3 muscular diseases I had. Again, just like the unprofessional woman he stopped me and said "WHAT IS YOUR QUESTION? " I started to finish my sentence by saying that I received shots around the eyes, jaw and I didn't get to finish AGAIN when he said, "WHAT IS YOUR QUESTION? ". Keep in mind this is a Dr. answering a new patient. I had a lot of questions..therapy, continuation of shots, what did he just do , but with his nasty manner, I chose not to bother. He obviously didn't want to be bothered with just another person, case, number or file. They told me to come back in a couple months. I called in and spoke to one of the girls to give them an update as the girls had requested. The day I came in (they have a 3 tier parking lot and construction or something was going on). I sat in my car for about 15 minutes until they let us go to the top lot (meanwhile my foot is bleeding from an operation I had had the day before). I didn't tell them when I got there, I didn't believe they would care. I got there. The woman from my first visit met with me, she was very polite this time, asked 2 questions : Did I Have a change of medicine and how was I feeling? I asked her what the game plan was and she briefly went over the "Band aid" as I called it and she agreed. I'm assuming after meeting 5 minutes that my next shot was going to happen in a few minutes. She told me to go back and make another appointment (which would have been 2 more months. I stated to the girl in the front "this was a scam, you called me here after a 2 month wait for 5 minutes and questions that could have been asked over telephone, e-mail, text, or at the shot time. I said this was ridiculous, it appears to be a scam. She said all doctors do this and insurance has us do that. WRONG !. (I did my homework ) I was so angry I pulled my car over and asked to speak to the office manager, she wouldn't do it. And I quote from the untrained , unprofessional, RUDE" girl "Maybe if you get here on time we'll give you more than 5 minutes". I knew then I would never go back, you are not a patient, you are a number , a file, a punching bag. When they sent me a reminder of my visit, I basically said what I have just written,. The culture in that office is horrible.It is one of 2 things. The leader (the doctor) sets the tone and the employees follow him/her by example. If he treats people unprofessionally , if his assistant does the same thing, then the others will do the same thing , or the culture has gotten so bad that nobody cares and everybody does their own thing in how they treat the customers or file/number people. I found another doctor in a week and saw him and filled all the papers at the same time, like the 30-40 doctors I have seen in the last 12 years due to cancer and surgeries. Bring someone with you to witness what is said or what you asked. Do not sit and be polite like I did , if the doctor doesn't answer you and politely, TELL HIM, and let your insurance company know about 5 minute visits, the contents of those visits and the horrible treatment and responses to your questions and that "If you are good , you'll get more than a 5 minute visit. HORRIBLE, UNPROFESSIONAL, and THE PASTIENT IS TREATED LIKE JUST A NUMBER !

This person has been my primary care doctor for about 3 years. I've never been able to see him…read more I've called approximately 30-40 times, left messages. Nobody has ever answered, and I've never received a call back. I'm not even sure this office is still in business. It's like a unicorn. It's a very time-consuming process to change my primary care physician through my insurance, so every time I need a doc, I just cross my fingers that I'll get a response this time, give up, and *eventually* heal on my own. I've only recently realized that it's actually been 3 years since I've even seen a doctor. I'm now having a really persistent problem and need to see a doctor and essentially don't have one. It's my own fault for not being proactive and changing PCPs in the rare moments when I'm feeling well, but this doc should not even be on the provider list for my insurance.

I was referred by my law firm after a car accident, but honestly, this appointment was made so late…read morethat I feel like it wouldn't really have made sense to get treated months after. The clinic is a little confusing because they use 2 different office spaces, but I have been in this building before, also for another car accident issue in which I needed imaging done. Since it is newer, everything is modern, clean, and bright. However, I felt like I was a little pressured into getting PRP done, and I overheard that this clinic mostly only does injections. It seemed a little excessive in my case to be getting steroids either. The doctor was informative and did answer my questions about the procedure. It was insightful, but I didn't end up receiving any treatment in the end because my case manager actually told me later that one injection is 15-18k, and that my coverage limit had already been met.

The staff are very kind and Kim has gone above and beyond with scheduling appointments that were referrals from the doctor. I truly appreciate that. The 4 stars is for the time that it takes to get items that are needed for care. I need a scooter or electric wheelchair, bath bench, lymphedema supplies and have not received any of those items. I know everything takes time and I am a very patient person. I just wish that if you are not able to do, just say you cannot. I am, also, a very understanding person.

Dr. Bhalla is great! I've had back issues and intermittent pain throughout my adult years…read more Whenever it got intolerable I resorted to acupuncture and/or chiropractic care and on a few occasions epidurals. Someone cutting on my back was not anything I was receptive to. When sciatic episodes became more frequent and longer lasting and I was forced to postpone scheduled knee replacement surgery I reluctantly decided to again consult an orthopedic surgeon. After initial consultation, x-rays and MRI I had follow up appointment with Dr. Bhalla to discuss options. He recommended surgery. Still reluctant to go that route I opted for another try with an epidural, but to to no avail. Back to Dr. Bhalla who told me the problems were going to continue to get worse so at age 73 I finally agreed to surgery. Lower lumber fusion surgery was performed at Long Beach Memorial Hospital by Dr. Bhalla and Dr. Rao (vascular surgeon). Anterior Lumber Interbody Fusion (ALIF) and laminectomy surgeries were performed on Monday and Thursday of the same week. The week in the hospital (overall very good care and treatment) and first 2 weeks at home I experienced moderate pain and discomfort but nothing intolerable. After 2 weeks of light rehab at home I started physical therapy program. After several weeks of PT my back felt really good. It has been nearly one year since the surgery and other than minimal discomfort during the initial recovery period I have experienced no back pain! From the initial consultation through the post-op visits Dr. Bhalla thoroughly explained all the options, the details of the surgical procedure, the recovery and rehabilitation process and patiently answered all my questions. Dr. Bhalla is a compassionate and highly skilled physician and surgeon! And, kudos to his very competent and kind office staff. While back surgery is a last resort, if there is no other viable way to address your pain and problems Dr. Bhalla is the surgeon for you.
