I'd like to start off with the parking. Unless you drive a Prius or have full coverage on your…read morevehicle, don't even think about utilizing their parking lot. The congested space is beyond laughable. Let's get down to the office experience. On your initial appointment, they will ask you to get here 60 minutes prior to your appointment time. They will send you two different text messages. Upon arriving 60 minutes prior to your time, they will give you and massive packet to fill out. Why is it massive? Because the genius who put it together, didn't realize there are multiple pages requesting the same information. Just a complete waste of time. Not only are you here one hour prior to your appointment time but expect to wait an additional 30 to 40 minutes. I am here for my second appointment. My appointment was at 10:30am. I arrived at 10am despite the text message telling me to get here 60 minutes early. It is now 11:57am and the doctor comes in with a rude, "I'm in a hurry" attitude. Honestly, if I didn't absolutely HAVE to be here to get this shitty workers compensation case OVER WITH, I'd tell you to stay away from this location.

My appointment was at 3pm I got there at 2:48. From the time I walked in the ladies at the front…read moredesk were talking a laughing with one another. No one acknowledged me when I walked in, cool whatever. I sat down and waited 20 min, still my name had not been called. I walked up to the desk and asked about me seeing the doctor and they all looked at me like I was the issue. One girl went to the back to "check" and said I would be next. Magically after asking about my appointment my name was called. It should never take 20 minutes to be called for an appointment. The ladies up front need to be sent to the back because that was not front desk behavior. I'm all for having fun at work but professionalism comes first. I'm definitely seeing if I can go to another office and I would not recommend this office to anyone!

My experience terrible experience with Dr. Mesiwala, followed by information from the PUBLIC RECORD…read morebelow, with links: I had 2 failed surgeries by Dr. Mesiwala. The first one left me with a spinal fluid leak (soaking the bed sheets with spinal fluid!) which required another surgery to repair it. This one one gave me a septic infection which put me in the ICU where my wife was told that I probably would not be going home. The wonderful hospital doctor ordered the swollen, infected area around my incision to be aspirated and tested to prove surgical infection. Before the team came to perform the aspiration procedure, Mesiwala came in and quickly ordered another nurse to administer an IV antibiotic (while he stood by and anxiously watched). This would make all of the infection tests from the surgical site come back negative. The hospital doctor on my case who ordered the test was furious about this cover-up antibiotic maneuver. She was very frank with me and said she "was shocked that he was still allowed to practice medicine but said it wouldn't go on for long." That was 18 years ago. Prior to the first surgery, a very well-known neurologist told me that Dr. Mesiwala "Has very poor judgment." A very strong statement from one MD against another, which I wish I had taken seriously. After my disastrous and nearly fatal experience, he suggested I get a lawyer and had his secretary give me the lawyer's phone number. He was on the medical board and wanted to use my case for more evidence to have Mesiwala's license revoked. I was too sick to deal with it and foolishly did not follow up. Also, prior to my surgery, even my home health nurse asked if I had done any research on Dr. Mesiwala. He then told me about the TV exposé on Dr. Mesiwala and the US Department of Justice Enterprise Corruption case for pushing a company's spinal implants after being given part of the company which made them. This is a Federal crime. I blame myself for not heeding the warnings. That's why I'm posting this for others. Now from the public record: Frequent Malpractice Lawsuits, Repeated Fraud, Medical Board Disciplinary Actions for Negligence, and a D.O.J. Racketeering investigation.

He was also the subject of a CBS LA news expose where he was outed for a non-FDA-approved mixture of two bone growth compounds without disclosure to the patients. This resulted in patients requiring surgeries to remove uncontrolled bone growth which had crippled them.

Three years ago, I was shocked to see Dr. Mesiwala on a website as one of the "Top Three Neurosurgeons in The Inland Empire". I forwarded the public information to the online publisher. The very next morning he was removed from the list and I got a phone call with an apology from the publisher. This is an unscrupulous man who, if there were any justice, should not be practicing medicine. He quite obviously possesses no moral character demonstrates horrible judgement and extreme dishonesty.

The doctor here ignored me and in less than 20 minutes said my disc herniations, nerve entanglements, loss of cushion, bone spurs, and the multiple compressions into the grey area near my spinal cord, were "no big deal" and he had no idea why I was in his office. HE refused to help me or even give me viable options except pain management where I already went. That pain management doctor tried giving me an epidural or ibuprofen. When notifying the doctor of this, I was ignored and sent on my way. Absolutely ridiculous behavior from a doctor, let alone one that is on the list for CA best.

I have never experienced the type of pain I am feeing, so I had a lot of questions. The doctor was clearly rushed and was flippant about his responses. He has NO bedside manner - just wanted to get me out the door! Well needless to say I am looking for a new doctor which is not easy with the horrible health care system our country has now. I paid a lot of money to be made to feel horrible and treated like a stupid old "anxiety" ridden woman !!!! He should not practice medicine- maybe he would be better slinging burgers !!! and tried to call this office back on a regular working day multiple times no answer goes to a voicemail saying that its not business hours !! I called 4 times no answer!!!! Stay away from this office.

At a later date my wife had an appointment made by her doctor to see Dr. Gupta regarding a tumor on her knee today 2-8-22 for she is extremely preoccupied about it and when she arrived the receptionist of Indian descend had a "Arrogant Pitbull attitude" towards her, she was so rude telling my wife that the appointment was for March 8th and not today (All that time with a nasty attitude) causing my wife to leave that office in disgusts and regretting ever going there. On the second appointment she had with Dr. Lercel a week ago the same attitude surfaced from the receptionist and it got to the point that she threw at my daughter who was accompanying my wife a card to her face prompting my daughter to throw it back at her telling her to have some respect towards the patients and to our surprise Dr. Lercel called our primary physicians office saying that he did not want my wife as a patient anymore!! Where is the "Humanitarian" side of these two doctors?? I'm a businessman and my advise to Dr. Gupta & Lercel is to hire people with a pleasant attitude towards his present and future patients otherwise the reviews of his business are going to have a negative impact on their offices. Hire people with pleasant attitudes!!
