I live in Santa Monica - so it's an hour drive to see him. But as in finding a great auto mechanic, you never leave a great doctor. He's very caring and thorough, and of course in his UCLA network has many specialists to recommend (luckily all of them are in Santa Monica). He's of course very knowledgeable, being a UCLA professor. Dr. P is a gentle guy who nevertheless tells it like it is. And he responds quickly to most e-mail questions through the myuclahealth website. Highly recommended.

He is of the "old school" where he still has bedside manners and never rushes you off. He actually listens to what you have to say. He follows up, even after office hours to see how you are doing. I picked him, because he is close to work and I made the right choice. Believe me, If he were to have a practice near my house, I would make him our "family" doctor.

I had knee pain consistently for years and mentioned it every time I went in. I asked about it specifically and was always told "Well, you are getting older" *wink wink*. I was in my 30s. He never recommended any treatment. All he had to do is write me a referral. Now it turns out that I've developed a baker's cyst on the back of my knee which is indicative of injury or repetitive wear and tear. Might require surgery. He was also hesitant about the Covid vaccine. I have now found a doc who believes me and orders tests when I'm concerned.

STAY AWAY! Trust me..... Lack of reviews for a reason…read more.... Absolutely horrible experience as a new client. I went in first for a simple meet and great meeting after my last primary doctor retired of 22 years. Difficult to say at least. This Dr experience immediately felt cold and non-empathetic. The Dr literally just asked questions and typed on his computer. When I tried to expand on my health and explain/talk further during each question I was cut off and told to just answer his questions the way he needed to type them. It got to the point where I got somewhat frustrated that I couldn't even explain/express the things I needed to express health wise. Hard to explain but he came off as a serious non-empathetic person! To make matters worse, The Doctor literally said half way through the meeting "maybe this isn't the right fit for you if your looking for a different type of doctor experience." Since my wife was also a new patient recently and saw him weeks earlier,I thought maybe I was being too sensitive on my first visit as I stupidly decided to go back a few weeks later for my yearly physical. I don't wanna speak for her but she said something on the lines as not great, just OK,but it's a doctor, what are you expecting. My wife is dry like that with no expectations. Just get yr health check etc and not put to much value in it. So I ignored my own gut instincts and scheduled and showed up again for my physical and got my vitals & physicals checked, (it was rushed), we than proceeded to discuss my health again as a sit down and it was the same cold conversational style experience like last time. He wrote up a prescription for blood tests and said I'll see you soon. As I walked out I noticed that he immediately got on his exercise bike in his office and started riding. Cold as hell if you ask me. I never did complete my full physical with him as I never went back. I have since found a new DR that seems to care more about me and my overall health. One that treats the "whole person". This is an important statement in today's medical model. Its shouldn't be just about diagnosis and treatment. We are all humans and process things differently. Oh by my the way Doctor, I personally have a PsyD in clinical psychology and I gotta say your either too inexperienced professionally or you really don't care one sense about your clients needs. In conclusion, I just received a bill for $160 for the 10 minute meet & greet visit. Not even the physical that was covered at 100%. Do I need to say anything else. What a sad world this doctor lives in.

My initial experience with Sam, the nurse practitioner, and the physician assistant was very pleasant. They were warm, professional, and made me feel optimistic that I had found a family practice where I could establish long-term care. Unfortunately, my experience changed after my laboratory results became available. A receptionist named Britney called me and immediately began discussing my results without first asking whether I was in a private place or prepared to receive medical information. I was at work and had to interrupt her and ask her to wait while I moved somewhere private. I had assumed she was calling only to schedule a follow-up appointment. I believe staff members discussing medical information should always confirm that the patient is able to speak privately before sharing results. When I returned for my follow-up appointment, there also appeared to be some confusion at the front desk. Although I had confirmed my appointment the previous day, the doctor stated that he had not known I was coming and had taken another patient before me. He apologized, but the delay made me late for work. Once I was called back, the process felt rushed. I was quickly directed onto the scale and then placed in a room with a medical student. I was not asked whether I was comfortable having a student participate in my appointment. The student repeatedly described my hormonal status in a way that did not match what I had previously been told, and our discussion about vitamin D supplementation felt dismissive rather than collaborative. I was also uncomfortable with the student shifting and rocking from side to side in my peripheral vision while the doctor discussed some concerning health information. That made an already stressful conversation more difficult. Later, when the doctor returned and spoke with me privately, the interaction was much more comfortable. He was pleasant, made eye contact, explained things more clearly, and ultimately did a good job addressing my concerns. I wish the receptionist had demonstrated a better understanding of patient privacy, that I had been asked for consent before a medical student joined the appointment, and that the visit had not felt so rushed. Staffing problems, scheduling confusion, and the absence of a manager may explain why the office was having a difficult day, but patients should not have to absorb the consequences. Overall, the doctor handled the appointment well toward the end, and my first visit with the other clinical staff had been positive. I spent considerable time researching family-practice physicians because I hoped to establish ongoing care here. For that reason, I am willing to give the doctor and the office another chance before deciding whether this practice is the right fit for me.
