    Pretty bad but has its perks. Also, I can't speak about any of the specialties. There are good,…read morecaring people here, mainly the nurse practitioners. They are all sweet and caring. Also, it's way cheaper than urgent care, even without using SHIP. In theory, a good service. Now for the bad. There is (was?) one particularly rude and unprofessional doctor there who made comments about my mom while on the phone with her. Insane. Their real problem is their lack of funding. This facility is in extreme distress and needs to double its budget. The offices look fine, but that's about it. The demand for care is high, with appointments being a month out, and same-day slots being taken right when they open at 8:30 every morning. Yet, you go inside and see practically empty back rooms. Nobody inside! One doctor on duty, a few nurses, and that's it. Meanwhile all the desks and rooms are empty. The employees always complain about how they're closing soon, even when you arrive right after lunch. They begin to "soft close" early in the day and are only open until 5pm. They aren't open on weekends. SHIP is $4000 a year, and recently became partly a loan. Yet, the facility is on life support. UC Davis claims to care about students and their "wellness," yet the state of this facility says the opposite. The nurses here and supposedly other essential faculty seem to really care and are doing the best that they can from what little they have. They know the system sucks, but they can't do much about it. Aside from one rude interaction (maybe they were having a bad day?), the issues here mainly stem from administrative problems.

    I am a second year law student as UC Davis. I am writing this after having experienced harm --…read moretwice -- with UC Davis Student Health. In this post I will describe my experiences of harm re: informed consent, and then describe how the UC Davis Student Health & Counseling Services responded to my request for a sign about informed consent. My first experience of harm was with my physical therapist, who did not ask for informed consent before putting his hand down my shirt, under my bra strap, to 1) apply K tape the first appointment and then 2) to massage my shoulder blade the second appointment. For the massage, he asked me "is this ok" as it was happening. I was laying on my stomach while my hand was in his lap. I wish I had had the ability to address it on the spot, but I came to the physical therapist after experiencing an acute injury. I was still in shock from the level of pain I was experiencing and honestly, would have done anything to experience some relief. I felt like something was off, but because of the radiating pain in my bicep that had kept me up the night before, I couldn't physically pull my hand away, nor did I speak out in the moment. My second experience of harm came after I shared this incident with the Medical Quality Management officer, Mary Macias, UC Davis Director of Quality Improvement & Risk Management. When I first reached out, my one and only request was that there are signs about informed consent in each of the rooms at the physical therapist office. After about 2 months, I was told that the request was denied by Student Health and Counseling Services with no information. While I was told that the providers received trainings on informed consent (which is great) there are 3 reasons I asked for the signs INSIDE the room: 1. it puts the power in the hands of the patients who deserve to know their rights, rather than solely in the hands of the practitioner. When a student is in a small space with a treatment table where there is 1) a power dynamic, 2) a gender dynamic, 3) a size differential, and 4) the patient is laying down, it takes a lot more to put the two people on a truly equal playing field.  2. UCD SHCS said that there are already signs inside the PT rooms informing students that they can request a chaperone. However, it will usually be the people who are at risk of most harm in the healthcare setting -- women, LGBTQIA+ folks, people of color -- who are the least likely to request a chaperone out of fear of being an inconvenience. 3. Putting the onus on students to affirmatively ask for a chaperone can also facilitate situations where people are more likely to ignore their own experiences of harm. ("Well I was uncomfortable, but never asked for a chaperone, so I guess it's on me for not speaking up.") It is concerning to me that my request for simple signage about informed consent, which is one of the lowest barrier requests anyone could ask for, was denied and I have not been given a clear reason why. -- despite the fact that the Patients Rights & Responsibilities outside of the PT's office states that patients have the right to understanding -- the right to know and understand SHCS procedures. So I am posting this in the hopes that all students and patients know of their rights, and for students to know what they are in store for if they ever have to make a report about something that concerns them at UC Davis Student Health & Counseling Services.

    I have been going to UC Davis for years. I tried Kaiser briefly when plan prices went up in 2015…read morebut I went back to a plan to go back to UC Davis. They have the best doctors. If I have an issue testing is no issue. At Kaiser you have to be your own advocate and demand tests. I like that UC Davis is a teaching university and I don't mind students coming in the room with the doctor. I don't have to stress and worry about they aren't testing me for anything I have concerns about. They work with me and put me at ease. I've been seeing Dr. Mahoney since 2018 and she is great. If she isn't available the other doctors are also great.

    Terrible experience. The doctor who saw me was nice enough, but everything after that was a…read morenightmare. I came in because I was having issues with my birth control, and the doctor did not even give me a full women's wellness exam. I spoke to the doctor for about 10 minutes, then headed over to their lab department to have 10 labs done. The labs cost about $163, which is pretty reasonable. However, this office charged me $942 just for the 10 minute talk with a doctor (not even a full exam). Absolutely ridiculous. And no, this is not a billing mistake as I first thought it was. I called their billing department, and they told me they would fix it but never did. I called them back and they said the bill was actually correct and that I owed them $1,105 for a 10 minute chat with a doctor and one set of labs. Will never be returning here again... and if you care about your health and your wallet, I would never recommend you come here either.
