    Ive had it with these people. I had to wait six hours, just to make an appointment. Waiting six…read morehours is insulting as hell. All I needed was a prescription, to be honored. I had one more prescription for a non controlled substance. To be number ten or eleven in line, is frustrating, counterproductive and insulting. I went to an urgent care, got my script, which my Dr, Dr. Glovaci refused to honor, although I had one more refill. I am going back to CARDIOVASCULAR CARE OF LOS ALAMITOS, where you can ACTUALLY GET THROUGH ON THE PHONE, without the INSULTING SIX HOUR WAIT.

This one is called a Spider mobile cardiac telemetry monitor. Via electrodes worn on your chest, the heart monitor automatically captures and transmits irregular heartbeats, whether or not you are feeling any symptoms. The whole experience was good just long....See ya in 2 weeks for results.

    Dr. Timothy O'Neill's pacemaker technicians saw my dad monthly for one year to monitor his…read morepacemaker. Every month it was the same thing, "Got about a month left. See you in a month!". I started getting suspicious after five or six months. Then, in November, Dr. O'Neill announces the battery finally needs to be replaced. He schedule x-rays and an general exam to make sure my dad is healthy enough to undergo surgery. We later see Dr. O'Neill who reviews the x-rays which show my dad has pneumonia. "Don't worry, I'll prescribe antibiotics", says Dr. O'Neill. Two weeks later, pneumonia is still there. We again see Dr. O'Neill. I say,"Maybe he needs to be hospitalized". Dr. O'Neill, "Let's check with my specialists. I'll call and get a priority appointment". "Here are some more antibiotics". Soonest we can see the specialist is 10 days. A few days later I take my dad to VA emergency room as pneumonia is still there. At intake, nurse takes x-ray. Half hour later the x-ray show that he has a large spot on his lung, probably cancer. Admitted immediately. More tests. Collapsed lung and the cancer is stage four and has spread to his liver which is covered in lesions. Doctors conclude there is no hope and today, Christmas, we decided to stop all life-prolonging procedures. Any word from O'Neill's office? Of course not. Would you want to risk your life with doctors like this? Post-script. My dad passed December 26, 2013. He did not suffer long and we were with him as he passed.

    I was very pleased with my experience today at the medical center. My GP referred me to a…read morecardiologist and when I called Monday afternoon I was able to get in the next afternoon! So happy I didn't have to prolong the wait. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful and I was called back by Dr. Lee's staff after only waiting a few minutes. She was also very engaging and friendly, which was appreciated. The reason I'm writing this review is to share how happy I was with Dr. Robert Lee. He was very friendly and listened to me and then offered his knowledge. He asked me a few times if I had any questions or comments so I was happy that he was ready to answer anything I needed to know. While I hope that I don't have to see him again -- eek! don't want heart troubles -- it is nice to know that I would be in great hands should I need to see him again. Dr. Lee put my mind at ease and was such a great doctor!

    The facility is great... The doctors are great…read more.. The only problem I have is that waiting... When I have a 3pm appointment, I always show up 15 minutes early, and end up waiting until 3:30 - 3:40 to be taken back to a room... Then I can wait in there 10 - 15 minutes longer in the room before I am seen. I completely understand personalized care based on each unique case requires a little more time... But, other medical specialists I've been to seem to somehow do a much better job of scheduling patients so they don't have to blow a good chunk of their day waiting. Dr, Brunner and Nurse Practitioner Wendy Gross are great... I've been a patient of Dr. Brunner's for 10+ years, and I am very happy with the service provided... I only wish there was a quicker way to be seen.

    This place is the worst.... first of all, if you were ever dying or in dire need of medical care…read more.. you would definitely die by the time you get someone on the phone. The office staff is barely civil, let alone helpful...They never have any openings for appointments... even when you're super sick! I don't understand how this is possible as there are at least 5 doctors who work there! When you finally get back to the doctor, after an hour or so wait, when the waiting area is literally deserted... you will have a doctor or nurse prac. who will not even listen to your symptoms or concerns! I was prescribed medicine that made me extremely ill and I asked the nurse prac if I could be given anti-nausea medicine to go with the prescription so I could take it and get better... her response was "just deal with the nausea... surely it's not that bad." ummmmm yes, yes it is that bad or I would have not waited 30 minutes on the phone for someone to freaking answer my question! As you can see from my many other Yelp reviews, I never, ever give a one star review... so you have to be pretty bad for me to do that. Do yourself a favor Yelpers, Find another doctor! This place is simply the worst.
