The staff is very pleasant and professional. They immediately made us feel welcomed upon arrival on our first visit. Dr. Paul Cassedy is such a down to earth and genuine person to relate to. I am not a fan of needles and he made me feel at ease and the process was easy breezy. He had a great degree of skill and as a result the experience was very comfortable. On our second visit to pick up lab work paperwork, the visit was pleasant and the paperwork process was correct and completed on a timely manner as promised. Hands down Dr. Paul Cassedy is an amazing person and I highly recommend him. He also has a great sense of humor which is unusual based on my previous experiences with other Dr's. Thank you Dr. Paul Cassedy for being you! And kudos to an awesome team of staff. read more

See all

Dr. Cassedy and his staff are always the best. They always go above and beyond to help their patients and provide the best possible care!

Dr cassedy is the greatest human to ever walk this earth. He's the most attentive caring doctor I've ever had in my life. I needed vivitrol the day I got released and he made it happen. He educated my parents and held our hands walked us through the scariest time of our lives. When I had an emergency and I didn't know what to do out of state needing a prescription, I called him. None of my other doctors were reachable but he took the time to call me after hours, send a prescription to a different state and give me life advice. He cares about what happens to you and he knows it matters to your family. Why would I ever go anywhere else? This is the pinnacle of patient care and I owe my life to this office read more

Let me start by saying I have never gone on Yelp to give a negative review before. Super disappointed in this practice and the way the owner Dr Cassidy handled the situation over the phone today. I walked into this business on 5/16/23 and asked the front assistant (her name is Loveling) for a total cost estimate I would pay for semaglutide medication. I informed her I'm a cash paying customer and I don't have insurance, I would like to know how much I'll pay out of the door in TOTAL for this specific service. Loveling told me $100 for labwork and $200 per month for the injections. I paid the $100 and today was told my additional total is $600 to be paid today. What??? I tried explaining this to Dr Cassidy on the phone today, and he wouldn't even let me speak. He went on and on and on for 20 minutes yelling on the phone, but did not let me speak whatsoever!! He kept yelling over me and wouldn't even hear me out! Dr Cassidy and his staff need to be crystal clear and TRANSPARENT about the verbal quotes they give to patients. If the total cost to the patient is $700, then say $700!! Please don't tell me $100 plus $200, then it suddenly turns into $700 total. Also when your staff makes a mistake, just OWN UP TO IT AND APOLOGIZE, do not yell at me on the phone for 20 minutes saying I am the one who misunderstood price. Had I known I was going to pay $700, I would have passed on this service obviously. Make sure you get written estimates if you are a cash paying customer!!! read more

I recommend this clinic , Doctor cassidy cares about his patients, professional. Staff are great.

I moved to California for treatment for my opiate addiction. After realizing that everything was far too expensive I thought my sobriety journey was going to be over. Until I came to Dr. Cassedy!! Coastal Care was not only super affordable, but also more affective than the treatment center I initially moved here for. I've been on the Vivitrol shot for over 6 months now and my life couldn't be better. Thank you Dr. Cassedy and the rest of the team! read more

Personally, I'm certain my life would have continued down the same path of substance abuse "sustainability", or, "maintenance" as opposed to clean sobriety had I not met Dr. Cassedy. Based on our first conversation, Dr. Cassedy developed a very strict time table to reach sobriety based on comfortable short term goals. Having an addictive personality, those short-term goals gave me the instant gratification that I needed to keep moving forward, but never had in the past. Not only did Dr. Cassedy and I reach our goal of sobriety, we exceeded it in my opinion. Our conversations never fell short of life changing. Dr. Cassedy will not sugarcoat the reality and severity of the situation. Being in the fight of my life, it's just the kick in the a$% I needed to get over that mountain. Not only has my confidence returned but I'm also 100% PRESENT for my wife and children again. Though Dr. Cassedy will say I did all the work, it was a team effort. Take it from me, PLEASE, if you want your life back, give the man a call. He's as good as it gets. read more

Always the best service. Dr. Cassedy is the best practitioner I've ever known! He is smart, wise, and an honest doctor. He aims to help people and is a true inspiration of the profession. He is the only doctor that hasn't left me bruised while taking my blood in my entire life. I wish more people were as competent as he is! read more

Dr. Cassedy is changing lives through his competency In drug addiction and his ability to inspire people to get clean. With the opiate epidemic that is plaguing America, Dr. Cassedy is making a profound impact in the community to get people's life back. The vivitrol shot is amazing and will help maintain ones sobriety. I don't know where I would be without Dr. Cassedy's guidance and support. A truly gifted individual that changed my life forever. Words cannot express the gratitude I have for this man. read more

Dr. Cassedy is by far the best doctor in the universe, would not refer any other doctor. I am not sure if my son would be alive today if it wasn't for Dr. Cassedy. We are so grateful read more

Doctor Cassidy is amazing at what he does. Incredibly kind, funny, and to the point. If you or someone you know is struggling with addition, I could not recommend Coastal Care and Doctor Cassidy highly enough. Love you guys! read more

Dr. Cassidy and his staff are amazing! They really care about what they do which is saving and changing lives! Thanks for all that you do guys! read more

If you're looking for a Dr that truly cares about you and your well being Dr Cassedy is your guy. I've been seeing Dr Cassedy as my primary care physician for 7+ years now and he's always happy, always in a good mood, and is always able to make you smile. He's just an all around good human being that really does care about his patient and their needs. Another plus is he takes walk-ins and the wait time is very minimal. I've sent so many friends and family members to Dr Cassedy over the years and they've all had great experiences with Dr Cassedy. So if you're in need of a great physician I would highly recommend checking out Dr Cassedy. read more

Years ago I would have recommended going here, this has become a nightmare of a place, the Dr. Is overwhelmed and in such a hurry he makes mistakes, just try getting him on the phone, after many calls I did and got slammed for bothering him, wrong prescription!! Avoid this place at all cost!!! read more

Dr Cassedy and his staff has been so nice to me. I am greatful this office is here in my local area. They let me drop in with out an appointment, they seem busy but I never have waited more than 5 or 10 minutes. This is the best guy around as far as I have seen and I am a long term South Orange County resident. It is like going to your personal family doctor. Mission Hospital is great of course, but I feel more like one of the crowd with the Doc's over there. Coastal Care urgent care is free parking, and I park right in front of the door and just walk in. www.WitsInnRecovery.com read more

I am a living testimony to the VIVITRAL shot. I have been battling to get sober for almost 4 years and have spent a ridiculous amount of money on rehabs and treatment it makes me sick. But then thank God I met Dr Cassidy he is a doctor who has such a big heart especially for those in addiction. I just went today for my 7th shot and it WORKS it has taken away my cravings and has given me my life back it has been a long time but I am officially back to living with my daughter. Thank you DR Cassidy for saving my life. Anyone who is on the fence about the shot I challenge you to make the appointment and go meet DR Cassidy he will sit down and explain everything and answer all questions and concerns and the staff is awesome too. Get the shot and get your life back!!!!! read more

I hope i have the right business, the address and name match so here it goes: I LOVE DR. PAUL F CASSEDY!! I moved to San Diego and I drive back if i need to be seen fast, people i worked with ten years ago still go to this Doctor, he is amazing, very funny and intelligent, super nice staff and worth the drive to me (from San Diego). I have never had any problems with billing, appointments, staff, unlike other places - Hands down - best Doctor i have ever seen!! read more

Dr. Paul Cassedy is the most compassionate man I've met in a long time. He has done more for me than any Dr. I've ever seen. You can also get into see him on the same day you call. He truly cares. read more

Dr Cassedy and his staff are amazing human beings and the Vivitrol treatment is the best addiction treatment out there. I am so blessed to have met Dr. Cassedy and i will never forget his kindness and generosity when I hit rock bottom. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND SEE HIM RATHER THAN SPENDING OVER $20,000 FOR INPATIENT TREATMENT Vivitrol has allowed me to get my life back in so many ways, i can't list all of them here because I would have to write a book. Most importantly, I haven't thought about using opiates or alcohol since i began vivitrol treatment. I started getting the vivitrol every 4 weeks and then switched to every 6 weeks and now i am getting the shot every 8 weeks. I have been clean now for over 13 months. At times, i have had to be around people drinking and the thought of drinking or using drugs never crossed my mind. Its truly a miracle drug and Dr Cassedy is a miracle worker. From the bottom of my heart, thank you DR Cassedy for saving my life!! read more

Dr Cassidyis a REALLY great doctor and a person. Very professional knowledgeable and CARING. I trust him with all the health maintenance of myself and my whole family read more

My family and I have been patients of Dr. Cassedy and team for a number of years. We have referred countless friends to his practice because of the incredible care we have received and continue to do so. He has also saved a family member and friend based on his insistence to see colleague specialists. He made personal phone calls to help with expedient appointments. Not a finer physician and fellow human being to be found! read more

Dr. Cassidy literally saved my life and I'll never be able to repay or thank him enough for all that he has done for me. I struggled for years with addiction to opiates and my story is very similar to millions of other's. It all started with pills that were prescribed due to an injury and quickly turned into an obsession and addiction. Of course eventually Dr's would no longer prescribe opiates to me, knowing full well I was addicted and drug seeking. So I turned to heroine as it was cheaper, more readily available and stronger. Within a matter of two years my life had turned into a real mess and I had little to no hope. I knew I needed to be in rehab, but I honestly couldn't afford it as I had no insurance. Then a family member told me about Dr. Cassidy and how he helps a lot of people in my situation. So I figured I had nothing to lose and decided to go and see this Dr. Cassidy! He was so honest and understanding, I knew he was the real deal and I could also be honest with him. He is a Dr. who really cares deeply about his patients and I'm happy to say he has helped to completely turn my life around. I have not used heroine now for over 7 months and I have nothing but hope now! Dr. Cassidy makes the transition and withdraw from opiates to freedom much easier than it really should be. Before I went to see him I didn't think it was possible for me to stay clean for even one full day, but he helped me to see and feel that I could. Of course I had to want to change and work hard at this, but I have to say Dr. Cassidy made it so much easier than I ever thought was possible. If you need help like I did you should stop reading this and just call or go see Dr. Cassidy, he can help you save and change your life too! read more

This is NOT a substance abuse institute, I don't know why it came up that way. It's an urgent care!! Anyways, best doctor I've ever seen! I highly recommend this practice to anyone! I have been sick a lot and seen lots of doctors in my life and this one is by far the best! I'm in and out so fast. Dr. Cassedy is kind, very knowledgable, and doesn't make you sit for hours waiting to be seen. I love this place the staff is awesome too! read more

YOU CAN DO IT! At the age of 50, I had it all. I was the Sr. V.P. of Public and Professional Relations/Chief Dental Officer of the nation's largest dental service plan at $4.5 billion per year. I had a salary package worth more money than we could spend and a set of golden handcuff's retirement plan that kept me away from the competition. We lived in a 5 level house on a hill overlooking the golf course, had all of the best toys from motorcycles to a yacht and wanted for nothing. In a single blackout call in the middle of the night to our new CEO's private line, I managed to lose it all because of a mixture of drugs and alcohol! Then after full head and neck cosmetic surgery that went wrong, my Superficial Temporal Artery had to be tied off and in his haste to stop the bleeding, multiple sites of all 3 branches of the Trigeminal Nerve were damaged beyond repair. When my Doctor gave me my first chronic pain prescription he said, "I am making you a narcotic addict"! After 14 years of "Ice Pick" headaches and 24/7 intense level 10 pain, Oxycontin in doses as high as 240 mg. per day, with Xanax, start up pain meds and every treatment and specialist in pain management, I started the dark path of reducing my doses and attempting to stop the painful and expensive side effects of this powerful drug. I thank Dr. Scott Martin for nearly 6 years of helping me down that road and saving me from a treatment program that would permanently label me as Psychotic. (Which I was for nearly two months of my own attempts at "cold turkey" and telling him twice to "F-Off!) After seven days in detox, one night's sleep, a constant state of hallucinations, and pain so severe that all I could do was pray nonstop to die, I was handed to Dr. Paul Cassidy of Coastal Comprehensive Care in Laguna Hills. He in my mind is a GOD!!!! I don't remember going to his office or anything that led to that meeting. He tells me that they had to carry me in to see him shortly after my release from the hospital. I know I was still off of the narcotics which accounts for the continuing hallucinations. But I promised him that I would do whatever he told me to do if he would promise to keep me alive and stop my insanity. He did and he has kept his promises, as have I. The result is that in 3 1/2 months I am completely off ALL narcotics and have not had any significant withdrawal at all. If you have had enough pain, lost enough teeth, lost your relationships with everyone who loves you, I HAVE GIVEN YOU THE ANSWER. Go to the hospital for the 7-day detox and call Dr. Paul Cassedy. Don't wait another minute and don't let his brilliant, statuesque appearance scare you off. His towering presence is filled with the biggest and the kindest heart I have ever had the pleasure to know. TRUST ME! Dr. Steve PS-I failed to mention that I have been through at least a dozen plus programs of every kind including: 30+ day programs; 7 day detox treatments; AA programs; military detox stays; the most expensive private treatments and follow-ups available and failed to maintain my clean and sober living in every one of them. I can tell you that my failure was almost always the result of: the extreme pain of detox; the awful "Post Detox Syndrome"; a gastrointestinal tract that survived 3 perforations and oozing of blood from the entire GI system; I was cut from my sternum to the top of my pelvic area and had part of my stomach removed, the acid producing nerve cut and the sphincter at the base of the stomach sutured wide open causing "Dumping Syndrome"; and the lack of energy that felt like I weighed 400 pounds with a black cloud constantly over my head. SOUNDS FAMILIAR? Well, I am telling you, as a lifetime substance abuser, that Dr. Paul Cassedy in Laguna Hills, California HAS THE METHOD, somehow, that NO ONE else knows! Call it his brilliant medical knowledge, his analytical genius mind, his chair-side manner of evaluation, his gentle touch of the heart, mind and body or who knows what? This has been the most positive, painless and anxiety-free treatment I have experienced in my life. Every excuse or reason that made me fail before was completely diagnosed and treated or was so minimal that it could be ignored. I am happy, I embrace the pain, I am productive and I KNOW this is the final chapter in this book of Hell. I honestly believe that a divine force much greater than all of us PUT Dr. Cassedy in my life. I am not religious, but I am extremely spiritual and those of you who understand what I have tried to say to my fellow addictive minded people, CALL (949) 707-0005 when you are REALLY ready to stop the pain! read more

I wrote a review for Dr. Cassedy on YELP a few years ago when I was in the early stages of treatment for 16 years of chronic pain from a Complex Head and Neck Surgery "GONE WRONG"! I could no longer work as a Sr. VP/ Chief Dental Officer of a $4.5 billion per year Dental Insurance Company in charge of 18 states. Dr. Cassedy saved my life! Although I remain disabled still today, his gentle understanding treatment and constant listening, combined with his expert diagnosis of my multiple side effects and pain of recovery were a constant challenge. Yet, he has never given up and has guided me to the best Doctors and Treatment Centers when my body and mind continued to throw new problems my way. He NEVER gave up! I have worked with hundreds of Physicians, Dentists and every kind of Specialist during and after my career. In all of those years I can TRULY tell you that I have never met, been diagnosed and treated by a more intelligent, personally caring, insightful Doctor in my life! His humble nature and unpretentious approach to his patients and treatment give him the highest rating I can give in this or any other type of review of Healthcare Professionals. IF YOU ARE READY TO CHANGE YOUR NEGATIVE LIFE TO ONE OF SUCCESS AND HAPPINESS, GO SEE PAUL F. CASSEDY!! :-) read more

Let me start off by saying in the past I have never gone on yelp to write a negative review. In the past I have only gone on to write positive reviews about businesses that I love. I am a big believer that if you do not like a service then you don't go back, however this is regarding your health and your rights as a client at a medical facility. Dr. Cassidy is the most unprofessional MD I have ever met. Since I am a nurse that works in different hospitals through out southern California I deal with a lot of different types of MD's and it is saying a lot that Dr. Cassidy has the least amount of bedside manners and is the most unprofessional MD I have ever met. What kind of MD walks in to his practice an hour late and is cussing? What kind of MD walks into a patient room stating "What are you here for" without introducing themselves or apologizing that they were an hour late to showing up for work? What kind of MD says he does not fill out paper work or takes calls regarding patients? What kind of MD gets upset if you do not have all the answers to their questions?What kind of MD throws paper work and clip boards around his office in front of staff and clients? The answer to all these questions is Dr. Cassidy. I warn you to stay clear of this office. Please read all the filtered results of this practice as there are several negative reviews. read more

Dr. Cassidy and his staff are the best! I am so glad to have found him and have referred loved ones also. Competent, kind, helpful and experienced!! read more

Dr. Cassedy and his staff are so nice and helpful, we love going there. If everyone had the Vivitrol shot, AA and NA would not be needed anymore. The shot makes you not want to drink or use ever again, it is magic. read more

Dr Cassedy goes far and above the average doc. He took the extra time and made a difference in my life. I could never repay him for taking the time and helping me through a tough period in my life. I recommend him to anyone needing help with addiction issues. A first class operation all the way and I was lucky to have met him. Thanks again doc for everything!!!! read more

Dr. Cassidy was good, but wait was terrible. That said, I would use him again if it was necessary.

I've been a patient Dr. Cassedy for years. He has been my physician since I 18 years-old, and now, my children and husband are also his patients. He has an incredible personality. He really cares and takes the time to see his patients. And that's even when he's busy, running from room to room. I have recommended him to all of my girlfriends and their family. The staff is also amazing. Very friendly. I highly recommend Dr. Cassedy to anyone who is looking for a wonderful doctor! read more

I've been good to Dr. Cassedy for over 10 years now and he's awesome. Always makes you laugh and fixes you up right away. Never wait longer than 10 minutes and call call or text him if I have an emergency. Great doctor, great staff. Louis M read more

Dr Cassedy helped me realize that the Vivitrol shot is what was right for me and to continue to strive for the best and not look back.

Avoid this place at all cost. First of all this place looks and feels like it ran by a whole bunch of recently graduated people lead by a doctor that is swamped with work and has little time to supervise his staff's work. I went there to get all my vaccines updated and also had some blood taken for some additional tests. So the first thing that comes out of the guy that is about to take my blood sample is if i am afraid of needles because the person before me fainted.... That should have been my first signal that this was not going to go very well. I proceeded to answer that no, i am not afraid of needles, just get the usual uneasiness of being pricked. So this guy proceeded to do the usual blood sampling protocol amnd after inserting the needle in my arm and no blood coming out, he goes around moving the needle around, while it was still inserted!! During that time i feel that the other side of my arm feels like it's getting pinched or something, because god knows what this person punctured/damaged inside my arm because he couldnt find a vein or what not. As soon as i leave the clinic i developed a bruise in my arm where i felt the pinch. To this day i still feels like my arm gets this feeling of being pinched if i move my arm in a certain position. I am to this date in complete disbelief and will consider sueing the clinic if this condition doesn't get better some time soon. Absolutely zero stars, and avoid at all costs if you can. So unprofessional and can't recommend any less... read more

First let me start by telling you that I only take the time to write reviews for exceptional service providers..... Dr. Cassedy & the entire Coastal Care staff are truly the last of a dying breed in the lost art of the personal family doctor. It has been my families 1st stop for all of our medical needs for almost a decade. He has always demonstrated an awesome bedside manner with the kids and an extremely friendly demeanor with us. I especially appreciate his comprehensive approach to addressing all of our medical needs in what I feel has always been truly personal medical care. He has made himself available countless times after hours to address the needs of my sick children on weekends and late nights, often times following up personally days after to make sure all is well. All my experiences over many years have left me to conclude you can visit expecting to see a perfectionist in a field where perfection is not always attainable, knowing that he will do everything he can to help including pointing you in the right direction through referral when necessary. Thx again for everything! read more

My experience at Coastal Care Urgent Care was a life changing experience. I was skeptical at first when my brother approached me begging me to send him to see Dr. Paul Cassidy. I was skeptical at first because the concept of a shot used to treat Opiate addiction seamed too good to be true. I made the mistake of sending my brother (age 36) to an $11,000 dollar rehab in Lake Arrowhead. He left after a week and the detox process was a joke. They replaced his opiates with other addictive drugs so when he left he was still addicted. My brother begged me once again to see Dr. Cassidy and this time I listened. He sent my brother to detox at a local hotel less then a mile from his office. That was when the reality of how addicted my brother was hit me. Dr. Cassidy then sent the most amazing human being by the name of Doug S. To stay with my brother through the detox process. My brother gave Doug S. a run for his money full of tantrums, fits, yelling, pain and psychological hardship. It was the first time in 5 years my brother was completely detoxing off of opiates. Doug S. Had my brothers back and talked him through the entire detox process in the most professional manner. He hadn't even know my brother before this and treated him like he would his own son. Simultaneously, Doug S. Continued to update all of our family members several times throughout the day and night on how things were progressing with my brother. Doug S. Is the reason we made it through and it could not have been done without his hands on approach. Dr. Cassidy has found a irreplaceable person in Doug S. and he clearly is a huge asset to the success of the program. We all thought my brother was a lost cause and I credit all of his success to Dr. Cassidy and Doug S. From Coastal Care Urgent Care. read more

Dr. Cassedy and his staff are the most amazing medical facility around.

I've been going to Dr. Cassedy's Urgent Care center since it first opened many, many years ago. No appointment is needed, and I'm seen right away. I always get expert medical care from Dr. Cassedy and his staff, who greet me with a smile and a handshake. Dr. Cassedy is a professional of the highest caliber, and he goes above and beyond what I have come to expect of a physician. He listens to my medical complaints, then provides a diagnosis and medical options. If I need a referral, I get that, too. Great big thanks to Dr. Cassedy and staff. read more
