Avoid Dr. Oh if you have epilepsy or any condition where medication consistency matters…read more My experience with her has been rude, dismissive, careless, and medically dangerous. From the beginning, I found her condescending and unpleasant to deal with. After reading other reviews, that does not seem to be an isolated impression. The bigger issue is not her personality. It is the repeated failure to handle my epilepsy medication responsibly. Multiple times, my prescription was not renewed when it needed to be. In one instance, I was told her license had expired, and no one notified me for over a week. Because of that, I went two days without my epilepsy medication. That is not a paperwork mistake. That is dangerous. Epilepsy medication is not Tylenol. I cannot casually stockpile it because it is a controlled substance. Because her office failed to communicate properly, I had to drive around Los Angeles while experiencing auras and mini-seizures trying to find someone who could help me get my medication filled. That situation could have led to a full seizure, loss of my driver's license, serious injury, or death. When I explained this to her office, they did not seem to care. I was essentially told it was too difficult to notify patients about the license issue. That answer is disgusting. A similar situation happened again recently. I called her office and learned she had been placed on leave for the month, and once again my prescription had not been renewed. I had to go through urgent care just to get medication I should never have been left without. I was off my medication for more than a day again. A neurologist who treats epilepsy patients should understand that missed medication can be life-threatening. Dr. Oh's office treated it like an inconvenience. Based on my experience, I would not trust Dr. Oh with epilepsy care. I would not recommend her to anyone who needs reliability, urgency, or basic concern from a doctor. Her care has been dismissive, careless, and unsafe.

And when I did get through, all the guy told me was that Dr. Nunez was not in and that he would have to take a message. Both times I left a message, but I never got a return call. Because of this, now my surgery for an injury I had a few months back is now in jeopardy. My orthopaedic doctor is just looking for a simple "yes or no", but even he couldn't get through to Dr Nunez. Also, I had to wait 8 weeks before getting an appointment. When I did come in well before my appointment time, I didn't see the doctor until 2 hours later. So far, all he has done is want more testing. I went in for a renewal of a prescription, but he only gave me 2 months. I've been taking this medication for 13 years, so I'm no stranger to it. If it takes 8 weeks to get another appointment, that's 2 months right there. I am going to run out prior. Luckily I went in with some extra medication in stock. Otherwise, I'd be toast. Awful staff, awful doctor, and awful service. I highly recommend you go somewhere else. Save yourself the hassle and go somewhere else.

Apparently all the reviews about their scheduling/desk staff is correct. I kept trying to use their…read more"hold my place in line" feature when calling in and never get a call back. After a week of this, I finally opted to just sit on hold. Turns out they never have a massive queue, the wait is never more than a few minutes. But the staff is an absolute nightmare. Today I spoke with "Hamza" and he talked really quietly unless he was talking over me (which he did the whole time) and refused to make any changes after I explained I have an Auditory Processing Disorder. He then put me on hold to speak to a colleague, left me on hold for nearly 10 minutes then returned to say I needed to send an email. I don't have an email address for them and when I asked why he couldn't schedule me if he's a scheduling operator is because his colleague said they needed my referral first. I told him I have a PPO and don't need one but I can provide contact for the 3 doctors that made the reco I speak to a neurologist if they need. He said his colleague thought I had an HMO - I asked why he would think that and he didn't answer just said he would schedule me. I asked with who and he gave a name I didn't recognize. I asked him to stop, please because it was clear there'd been some miscommunication. He hadn't even taken my insurance so he'd be scheduling blind AND I was calling to get the availability for a specific neurologist at their location. When he again interrupted and reverted to speaking at an inconsistent pace/volume I stated this clearly wasn't working and asked if he could transfer me to someone else. He said yes, put me back on hold, and then rerouted me to the main menu instead. With no other option I re-entered the queue for scheduling operators only to wait my turn and be hung up on. I have since called back at least 5 times, and tried an alternate number for the office I found online. Every time, I wait in the queue, and then when my turn comes, I'm hung up on. I'm sure Hamza thinks he's hilarious but I will be reporting the behavior to my insurance company, and the ADA at bare minimum. I guarantee this behavior is not limited to his phone interactions and if this is how he treats someone with an APD, I cannot imagine how he treats stroke survivors and those with significant cognitive impairment.

This is just a re-review two years after post-op work. I've had other neck, shoulder, and…read moreback-related issues, and even after coming to Dr. Chambi specifically for treatment of thoracic outlet syndrome, I've been grateful that he and his office have been able to help me with issues not related to one of his specialties in TOS. More specifically, I wanted to write this review because I've been sad that some people are still trying to "cancel" Dr. Chambi for a lawsuit that happened decades ago. I don't know the details, so I can't defend him or speak about the affected individuals from that time. All I can say is that whatever happened back then doesn't factor into how I judge him today. Dr. Chambi has been nothing but kind and helpful to me. He always listens to any potentially nerve-related issues I have, especially since I deal with a lot of neuromuscular pain on a day-to-day basis due to my computer job. He is one of the few doctors where I don't have to wait at least a week or two just to get an appointment. If I need a refill on medication that helps me sleep at night, such as Soma/carisoprodol, it's easy to call the office and let them know I need a refill because I still medically require it. Of all the doctors' offices I've been to for my chronic muscle and nerve pain, this is the only place that recommended this medication, which has been life-changing for my sleep over the last few years. Whenever I'm in a lot of pain, I always think of Dr. Chambi's office for recommending this medication, which I didn't know about before I started seeing him. He and his team have also been very helpful with my insurance. My insurance, Cigna, denied my claims for MRIs on my shoulders and lower back for the typical silly reason that they needed more information, even though I'm in pain doing simple tasks like computer work, reaching overhead, or even carrying mildly heavy things in certain positions. Thanks to a lot of back-and-forth, persistent communication from Dr. Chambi's front office, his team was able to convince my insurer to approve my initially prescribed shoulder and lower back MRIs after getting X-rays first. Through this MRI push, I was able to figure out that I had mild bilateral shoulder tendonitis and bursitis and even some low back disc herniation and left facet hypertrophy. If it weren't for Dr. Chambi's team, it's possible that I would have had to deal with undiagnosed pain all over my body or have to pay for three expensive MRIs out of pocket--over $1,000. Through these MRIs, Dr. Chambi prescribed me naproxen, and used MRI results to continue treatment with other therapists/specialists and have a better understanding of what was going on with my computer repetitive strain that I was doing to myself. The fact that I can always call Dr. Chambi's office and have them start a peer-to-peer insurance review or at least reach out to insurance to attempt another request--which is done in a timely manner--is really helpful to me. Seeing how many patients still visit Dr. Chambi for various nerve issues, and how he seems to treat all his patients like family rather than just another number in a system, makes me sad that some people discredit him because of an older lawsuit that has nothing to do with the patients he sees today. This can be a huge contrast to many so-called top doctor offices where just reaching the front desk can be a challenge in and of itself. I also want to reiterate, as someone who underwent a simple scalene decompression microsurgery to relieve my hand grip issues from my TOS surgery in early 2023, that I still do not regret choosing that surgery over the internet-recommended option of a first rib removal. This was something that Dr. Chambi and my physical therapist strongly recommended against for me at the time, especially since I have a computer-based job. I was able to get hand relief and my grip back without destroying my body. I wish Dr. Chambi had more in-office hours beyond just Tuesday and Thursday, but that's a minor flaw compared to how he and his office have been incredibly helpful for all my nerve- and muscle-related issues, especially since I could call the office any day of the week.

This "doctor" killed my father by preforming unnecessary brain surgeries after he was diagnosed…read morewith thyroid cancer. During my dad's last procedure the "medical assistants" put the breathing tube in his stomach. They did not discover their mistake until several minutes past. My dad never woke up from the coma they put him in. His death was caused by Central Herniation of Brain and Anoxic Brain Damage (lack of oxygen to the brain)...not cancer. Dr. Chambi removed the power of attorney status from my sister and mother by deeming them too emotional to make rational decisions. He then told my uncles that the best thing for their brother was to remove him from life support as soon as possible and to cremate the body...therefore there would be no evidence of wrong doing. Dr. Chambi has been permitted to continue practicing at the hospital due to his ability to generate revenue. However, a search of his background reveals a troubling history. In 1999 and again in 2013, he was sued for fraud and medical malpractice after performing an unauthorized amputation on a patient seeking treatment for nerve pain. The lack of accountability for the harm he inflicts on his patients is outrageous. Please see the attached photo.

I have never written a Yelp review before, but felt compelled to do so after how bad my experience…read morewas. I went to doctor Shbeeb for chronic anal fissures. I have had these issue for years, and they will periodically flare up and cause intense pain and discomfort. I had to book my appointment 4.5 weeks ahead of time (not the doctor's fault, but meant that I was in pain for a month before I got there). At the office I waited for 30 minutes without any explanation or comment from the staff. Once I saw the doctor, he gave me an incredibly uncomfortable exam. I have had multiple exams before and they always involve the patient lying on their side so the doctor can exam their rectum. Dr Shbeeb instead used a table that you had to get onto on your hands and knees, that was then inverted keeping you at a 45° downward angle. This was disorienting to say the least. Then he proceeded to give me the most painful exam I've ever had, going much deeper than any doctor I've had before, and using a very large probe device. If you have had hemorrhoids or anal fissures you can imagine how painful this was. After that we went into his office where he told me, without making much eye contact, that I had an anal fissure. Which I already knew, not to mention that I actually have multiple. He only mentioned the hemorrhoids I have after I said I already knew I had several. I tried to explain my history of this condition, what I've tried, what previous doctors told me, and the results of a previous colonoscopy. He was not interested in any of this and interrupted me several times. The only question he asked was the name of my previous doctor. He told me to drink water, eat fruit, do a sitz bath, and use preparation H. All of which I've previously tried and have not worked well, which is why I was in his office in the first place. I prompted him about a procedure I had heard of from a previous doctor, and he said that was a possibility, and was a minimal, outpatient procedure. When I shared my concerns about side effects, mentioned by a previous doctor, he dismissed them said they weren't common. I asked if it could be pin worms and he said "who told you you have that" when I responded "nobody, I read about it online", he said "online? You don't have that". He was glib and dismissive the whole time and eventually said "do what you're doing or get surgery, it up to you, good bye" and looked down at his desk. My experience start to finish was uncomfortable, disrespectful, and frustrating, I would recommend others avoid Dr. Shbeeb.
