    My 94 year old mother has been seeing Dr Sachar for over 20…read more She is great and her staff has always been very supportive.

    My family has been going to Dr. Shachar for maybe 15-20 years. She was my father's doctor-he liked…read moreher very much- and when I suggested we try to find a more practical office for a wheelchair as my dad was a new amputee he absolutely refused. I personally left Dr. Shachar because I found a doctor who I used in the past that I was happy with and re-established a relationship with. My father passed and Dr. Shachar called and offered her condolences. Dr. Shachar is not the issue here. At least not for me. Our family has not had any bad medicine from her. Her treatment plans are reasonable. She is kind. The problem is her staff. And I am only writing this negative review in the hopes that this kind and great doctor will consider the way her staff treats her patients. Her staff has always been rude, condescending, haughty. As I mentioned, my mother and father have been going to her for over a decade, and after so much time of a doctor patient relationship you would think there would be some kind of recognition of that fact. I work in an emergency animal hospital. I am a senior receptionist. I have dealt with my clients from the day they got there kitten or puppy to the day where we sadly have to choose peace over a poor quality of life. Now if one day my client calls me to tell me his poodles breath is getting stinkier by the day, it's been going on for awhile, and needs to be seen, I don't tell the 80 year old man he had an appointment, that was scheduled a while ago and well obviously it got cancelled. My soonest is on this day. He can't make it. Okay, let's try this date. He can't make it. 1 more try, he can't do it. Frustrating for parties. I get it. If the older man's son says if he can find another provider for care would the records get there quickly? I WOULD ABSOLUTELY NOT TELL THE PERSON ON THE PHONE OH YES DEFINITELY. SO SHE ISN'T GOING TO BE A PATIENT HERE ANYMORE CORRECT? This receptionist sounded like she was so happy to be rid of my mom as a patient. A long time patient. For my regular long time clients there's a certain bond we have. I have had to walk my clients, most of them I call friends, off the ledge about there dogs diarrhea not killing them and we'll get them in. I will find the owner of the practice or her 2 associate vets and ask them, hey, can one of you squeeze so and so in on your earliest convenience. I would do that for the 80 year old man as well. And these are pets (which many call there fur babies). Dr. Shachars staff is just very quick to shoo away her human patients of 15 years at the drop of a hat. Lucky for these rude insensitive mouthy employees they can act however they want over the phone. A lot of people don't appreciate the poor treatment of their elderly relatives. My mother has verbally told Dr. Shachar during an appointment how her front staff treated her badly. I do not know if Dr. Shachar does not care or just condones the poor treatment of her patients. I would like to find my mother a new PCP, but like my father, my mother said no, she really likes Dr. Shachar and that's her doctor and not mine. In the past years I have also been treated poorly and spoken down to by these young ladies and have had to refrain from becoming very ghetto. Only for the sake of my parents and Dr. Shachar do I keep my mouth shut. But I can handle myself. My poor deceased father and 80 year old mother cannot. I have just my mama left and Dr. Shachar, C'mon, you have always been there for our family. Please do not allow your front staff girls to be so rude. This in no way reflects my mother's feelings.

    Please do not go there!!! We were referred there by a…read moreprimary doctor. We were asked by the medical assistant and Dr why we were there. The doctor had never looked at the ct results and had to ask the assistant to get them. Why are we even there?! After dealing with referral issues for 2 weeks for a CT scan I called for a 4th time to tell them they had the referral wrong (first time it was the wrong fax, second time the order was incomplete, 3rd time they sent it to the wrong fax again (AFTER I GAVE THEM THE CORRECT NUMBER), 4th time to tell them the order was wrong AGAIN and that my mom would not be going there again. None of the staff that answer phones tell you their names, I asked the person dealing with the referral what her name was, her name is Juleny (from what I understood). After I told her he would not be going there and their service is horrible she hung up on me. I wasn't rude or anything and I was being very patient since my mom needs these appointments.

    Frustrating Experience with Dr. Martha E. Lozano, MD - Avoid This Doctor!…read more I visited Dr. Martha E. Lozano, MD, to get a new CPAP machine after my old one started failing. I had been struggling for nearly a year to obtain a replacement due to insurance complications and provider changes. Initially, I went to Scripps Green, where they promised to rush my order, but my insurance denied it after Scripps Green opted out of my medical group. I then attempted to go through UCSD Medical, where I was originally diagnosed with sleep apnea, but they were fully booked for six months. After several failed attempts and even switching primary doctors--only to find out my original doctor could have placed the order--I was finally referred to Dr. Lozano. I was relieved to secure an appointment within two weeks. However, my initial visit was disappointing. Despite arriving early for paperwork, I waited over an hour before being seen. When I explained my urgent need for a CPAP machine, Dr. Lozano assured me she would rush the order, and I should receive it within two weeks. However, she insisted I needed a new sleep study--despite my existing diagnosis and previous study, which should have been sufficient. This was completely unnecessary and seemed like a tactic to bill my insurance for additional tests. Desperate to move forward, I reluctantly agreed. Unfortunately, things only got worse from there. A week passed with no updates, so I called the office. After being placed on hold for ten minutes, I hung up and tried again--only to face the same issue. I then contacted my insurance, who attempted to reach the office as well. Despite multiple follow-ups, I never received a return call. One month passed. Then two months. Still, nothing. This experience was beyond frustrating. Instead of receiving timely care, I was met with delays, poor communication, and unnecessary hurdles. Doctors like this should have their license taken away! She ran unnecessary tests just to bill the insurance company--this is unacceptable! Please file a complaint against doctors like this! Scripps Patient Advocate: Rose Guido - 1-858-678-6694 Report to the Medical Board of California: https://www.mbc.ca.gov/Consumers/file-a-complaint/ If you're in need of a CPAP machine or dealing with urgent medical concerns, I strongly advise against seeing Dr. Lozano based on my experience. UPDATE! Dr. Martha Lozano is a phonologist in San Diego, I flied a complaint against her and a phonologist.

Lozano, M.D. Please be advised that the RCB regulates the practice of respiratory care practitioners. Dr. Lozano is not a respiratory care practitioner, but rather, is a licensed physician.
