    I had a very bad experience with Fiona Chung, the NP at One Medical Palo Alto. I went in for a…read morethroat check and she wanted to use a swab to get some culture tissue out from my throat for tests. But she didn't use a tongue depressor, so she made me feel like I was going to throw up several times, and because of that, she wasn't able to get the tissue she wanted and we had to repeat the procedure again and again. Then I reminded her that she should use a tongue depressor. She responded that it was going to make the process more uncomfortable and difficult... But she used it in the end upon my request. Then it really worked and she was able to get the tissue without me feeling uncomfortable. This made her speechless. On top of that, I got my test results after the visit and she didn't even write me a message telling me how to interpret the test results. I had to Google the results myself but I wasn't able to find an answer. In summary, Fiona is highly unprofessional and inexperienced. She doesn't take her job seriously enough. Please avoid her if you use this clinic.

    This review is for Dr. Jimmy Chen and his staff at Stanford Family Medicine…read more We go to Dr. Jimmy Chen with our baby girl since she was a newborn, she's now 7 months old. Dr. Chen is absolutely amazing. He's incredibly knowledgeable, very patient, cares about our well-being as a whole. He's asking us about how she sleeps, gives us advice on how to make sure she develops means to soothe herself independently. She's had a couple of problems and Dr. Chen has been the only one to provide us with a complete, logical explanation that would ease any anxiety we have. I also love that he doesn't stick for all written rules when they might not apply, for example I had trouble breastfeeding and he supported me when I finally could not continue pumping anymore at 4.5 months, though originally encouraged me pretty strongly to aim for 6 months. Also we introduced our baby to solids at around 4.5 months as she was showing signs she was ready. He always checks his emails, even when he was away abroad he emailed and made sure someone responds to our messages. Dr. Chen's staff has been incredibly helpful and responsive every time. His nurse Bernadette is sooo kind and helpful every time we call. They usually call us back within half an hour. His NP has also been super nice and responsive. They're always on time and so very nice. Dr. Chen usually has students. I actually find that they enhance the visit. They are very thorough and always a pleasure to meet. The other staff at Stanford Family Practice are all very nice and good as well, but there's no one there like Dr. Chen! When he's not available, I truly miss him.

    We like our doctor. We pay super high premiums. We try to schedule minor appointments but the…read moretelephone staff is uninformed, helpless, or simply don't pick up the phone. It's infuriating to need care from a system where skilled staff can't be reached and the call centers consistently underperform. I may go back to Kaiser where nobody does their job but at least it's cheaper.

She's thorough, knowledgeable, and does a great job of explaining things to help make decisions on next steps. After care instructions are very clear. I have totally revised my expectations on what urgent care can and should look like! Considering moving my primary care here as well. One Medical app is super easy to use, and features like "treat me now" (get a reply within 4 hrs) or ASAP video visits are great options to have. I did have a negative experience with a provider at another location, and One Medical actually followed up with a phone call from their office manager, which I appreciated.

Not everyone can afford you just be honest. These initial posts are deceiving if the true cost and steps are outlined from the beginner and available for patients instead of trying to lure for easy to sign up offers. The right person will take the steps to work with you and pay. These types of posts attract someone going into Onr medical thinking it is cheaper when they may not have the financial ability to do so. My main feedback is transparent cost and policies.

    I booked a phone consultation with this doctor earlier this year so that I could get his opinion on…read moresome lab results and my current plan of care. In very unfortunate timing, I experienced a medical emergency and was being rushed to the ER during the time of the phone visit in a tremendous amount of pain. I told him the situation and his response was, "I spent a lot of time and effort reviewing your labs, don't you want to hear what I have to say?" He only got worse from there. I basically put him on speaker and let him talk into the void while I waited for him to shut up so I could end the call, and for the car to arrive at the hospital. I ended up having emergency surgery shortly after being admitted to the hospital. It's not about the money for a wasted appointment; it's about him being deplorable. Listen to the other reviewers who mention that this guy is rude and combative.

When she was first admitted to the ER back in February and she expressed to him she didn't want to do dialysis anymore he said "well I don't believe in suicide". Super professional and compassionate when I asked him about her being assessed for hospice care and continuing dialysis he said no that can't be done even though I've been told by her home health care company she can. He then said to me he doesn't have time to be on the phone with me to answer my "basic" questions. Which I then told him that these questions we have are not basic to us since this is a new situation and very stressful situation we are now dealing with. I was upset and expressed my frustration with how we have just been bounced around from hospital to doctor with no answers no guidance and no help with getting her the care she needs. Please see my photo. A text from my brother who spoke with Phillip Ng yesterday at my mom's dialysis appointment where she is still exhibiting signs and behaviors of mental decline and suffering. When my brother explained we want to have her assessed for hospice care with dialysis continued those were his responses. " he doesn't want to waste the government's money" do not go to this poor excuse of a human for your or your loved ones health care needs. Complaints are being filed.
