I booked a virtual appointment on My Chart for Dr. Gaikwad. I wrote a personal email to the Doctor…read moreand asked if she is able to treat a specific disorder. This is so I do not waste her time and my money. I never got a response. I followed up with a second email, again no response. When the appointment happened, I asked her if she could treat a specific disorder and she COULD NOT. SURPRISE, I got a bill. I contacted the office and informed them what I did and they apologized and saw my emails and dropped the ball. I had a 12 dollar balance after my insurance paid for this, (no care appointment.) Of course I did not pay the 12 dollars that they billed me, and they decided to send it to a collection agency. I am furious! They are taking advantage of the healthcare system and patients. This has to stop!!!!!

I had a very disappointing experience with Dr. Kempert's office, both in terms of medical care and…read morebasic patient rights. The care I received felt dismissive and lacking in thoroughness. I did not feel listened to, and there was little effort made to investigate or meaningfully address my concerns. It left me questioning the quality and standard of care being provided. What was even more concerning was the behavior of the front office staff. They were unhelpful, rigid, and frankly came across as unnecessarily difficult to deal with. Instead of assisting a patient, the interaction felt adversarial. The most unacceptable part of my experience was when I requested my medical records. The office refused to release them unless I scheduled and paid for another appointment to review my own bloodwork. This is not only inappropriate, but a clear violation of both California law and federal HIPAA regulations, which explicitly grant patients the right to access their records without unnecessary barriers. Patients should not have to argue for their legal rights or be forced into additional appointments just to obtain information that belongs to them. Overall, this experience was frustrating, unprofessional, and concerning. I would strongly encourage others to be cautious when dealing with this office.

They didn't have a lot of doctors on staff, but it wasn't a busy day when we went. We wound up needing some more extreme tests and they called around to other Hoag hospital locations and were able to get us a STAT CT scan that same day. The doctor asked a lot of questions and was very thorough. This is a nice local urgent care and way better than going to any emergency room or waiting three months to book with your own doctor!

We also love the fact that Dr. Jim is available by email, and has assisted us many times without having to visit the office. One of our favorite parts about Dr. Jim is his knowledge and expertise; he always has a confident plan on how to treat our son when different things come up. We will continue to use Dr. Jim as long as we are able and would recommend him to all of our friends. Thank you Dr. Jim and staff for caring so well for our son.
