    "A+ Quality, Friendly Staff"…read more For my next visit to Dr Bell, I decided to break my shoulder. Well, okay, not really broken-- the usual rotator cuff injury. The doctor described the tendons as "shredded." This was not exactly the adjective I was hoping for, and surgery was required. The surgery was uneventful, and took place right across the street at Hacienda Surgery Center. On my next visit to the doctor he provided color photos of my surgery. It's sort of like doing selfies, except you're unconscious. Several weeks later, I was in the capable hands of the onsite physical therapist, Mark Snyder, assisted by his capable assistant. Karen. These folks are excellent-- professional, as well as friendly. I sometimes call Mark, "Mr.Pain." It was originally, "Dr. Pain," but he reminded me he was not yet a doctor. I don't know why I came up with that nickname for Mark. During physical therapy, whilst icing my shoulder, the PT team allows me to watch the TV show, "Sherri." This is part of Mark's therapy, and provided at no extra charge. I am always pleased with the proficiency professionalism and courtesy of the great staff here. A top tier medical practice happens neither easily or quickly. Doctor Bell is a very capable surgeon. I would not go anywhere else. But please don't tell the physical therapist that I call him Mr.Pain. That nickname might be misinterpreted , and they might cut me off from the "Sherri" TV show.

    Dr. Bell is amazing. His team got me in for an appointment quickly, he immediately gave me an exam,…read morelistened to all my concerns, got me and x-ray, MRI, and let me know I needed surgery. Surgery went well and I'm now 2 months post op! With physical therapy right around the corner, recovery has been a lot easier with everything so close and well organized. He is also very nice and personable. Would definitely recommend to everyone!

    I'm about 4 weeks post-op from carpal tunnel surgery and initially planned to see a PT, but due to…read morescheduling delays (3-4 weeks out), I was dealing with pain and stiffness at the base of my palm from built-up scar tissue. I found Dr. Asturias through Yelp and I'm so glad I did! He clearly has deep expertise in breaking down scar tissue to promote healing. Over the past 4-5 weeks, I've had 7-8 sessions with him. Each one starts with wrist adjustments and stretching, followed by Graston therapy to break up scar tissue and improve circulation, and ends with light therapy to accelerate healing. I won't lie--each session is painful (feels like torture at times!), but I see noticeable results within a day or two. When I first saw him, I couldn't even push press a 10lb dumbbell or squat because I couldn't bend my wrist back. Also, I was feeling immense pain at the base of the palm with any contact. After just a few sessions, I was pressing my pre-surgery weight and squatting again without pain. Dr. Asturias is incredibly skilled, thorough, and down to earth--super easy to talk to and makes the whole process efficient. Making appointments is a breeze--everything is done through their online portal, which makes it super easy to schedule or reschedule as needed. My wrist is almost fully recovered now, but I continue to go back because I keep seeing incremental gains after each visit. Highly recommend him if you're recovering from surgery or dealing with stubborn scar tissue!

He is my "go to" surgeon for all things orthopedic. Dr. Oji is my ankle and foot man. I adore both of these men. No one will touch me but them or someone to whom they refer me. I can't speak highly enough of TRI-VALLEY and the team there. ADDITIONALLY the staff at reception is excellent, warm, caring and friendly. Scheduling personnel is also great. Top to bottom, end to end this is a top flight group; every person regardless of function. You can't find a more caring, talented, compassionate, and skilled group of people.

I successfully ordered replacement orthotics once before, but my recent experience has been extremely frustrating. At a December 2025 appointment, I was told that custom orthotics were no longer offered and that Tri-Valley Orthopedics now sells an over-the-counter branded insole instead. I wanted multiple pairs for different shoes and requested six pairs so I would not need future appointments simply to purchase replacements. Six months later, the insoles are still unavailable. Communication has been the biggest issue. The phone system no longer allows direct access to the office, messages left for the medical assistant have gone unanswered, emails have not been returned, and there is no clear way to speak with an office manager regarding the situation. At one point I was told insoles were available for pickup, so I scheduled an appointment. The day before the appointment, it was canceled because the insoles were actually not in stock. Now they are calling saying I missed my appointment. See screenshots. The lack of communication, inconsistent information, and inability to resolve a straightforward purchase request ultimately led me to seek care elsewhere. While my earlier experiences with the practice were positive, this recent experience fell well below my expectations.

DON'T waste your time waiting for authorization to go through, go to someone else as this clinic will tell you they will process the authorization and have you wait for their call. WELL, today I got a call from their office with no message left, so I returned their phone call just to find out this doctor declined the referral without reason. It sounds to me this office is not very professional and likes to waste other people's time. If you are going to declined someone, you can simply tell them over a voicemail or email. Instead you have them call you back and waste everyone's time to simply get a "No, he will not accept your referral". Life is difficult and these are the people that makes it even harder for people. Especially with people who are already injured and just seeking treatment. I will highly not recommend to anyone who is injured. Perhaps they only take on patients that have good insurance policy that will be a nice amount of money to get treated.

Dr. Lee had a very cool attitude towards me after he looked at my passed records. He knew I wasn't one of his regular patients, even though my other gastro Dr. said he was the one that did my gallbladder surgery. Had no record of it!! He couldn't help me at all. He just recommended a pain management group who I have already seen, and would NOT see again. This pain group asked me to order a special pill that I've never heard of and that was out of state, pretty expensive AND not covered by insurance. Not sounding to normal to me at all. Dr. Lee really didn't seem interested in helping me at all. The visit was a waste of time and very disappointing.

    This doctor is also known as Yen Chung (Andrew) lee…read more My husband accompanied me to see this doctor/surgeon. We both initially felt Dr. Lee was a bit arrogant. My husband mentioned a painful bodily issue I had experienced and Dr. Lee completely cut him off. He was somewhat dismissive regarding my pain issues following surgery done by Dat Tien Nguyen. He commented that I should simply be happy that the two breast lumps were not cancerous and basically to get over it; meaning the injuries and pain. I told him I was grateful the lumps were not cancerous, yet my pain was unbearable and I had blood oozing from my nipple. After he saw the blood coming out of my nipple he seemed to understand my pain and issues were legit. He did order blood work and an ultrasound, which was good. He reaffirmed what other pain specialists had told me; the nerve damage suffered during Nguyen's surgery would be with me for life. The nerve pain was and IS in my breast and runs down into my ribs. I told Dr. Lee I had seen Dr. Peter Wong at Tri Valley Physicians about a week prior to my visit with him. I told him Dr. Wong prescribed an antibiotic for an infection, which I soon learned I did not have. Dr. Lee also reaffirmed that patients should not be treated with antibiotics if they do not have an infection; as was my case. Keep that in mind folks; be certain you actually DO have an infection before being treated for an infection. I had the ultrasound performed, yet wasn't called with the results as promised. I called his office and an employee, Frida took my message regarding the test results. Frida (hope I am spelling her name correctly) was a gem. She is a nice lady, compassionate and very professional. She gave Dr. Lee my message, yet he still failed to call with the test results. I called again the following day, as I'd been waiting on pins and needles for the test results. Frida said my test results were setting on his desk and had been for a couple days. I could tell she was frustrated too that he had not yet called me. Finally, Dr. Lee did call with the test results, yet he did not speak to me. Instead he left very detailed, private medical testing information on my answering machine. I was livid when I retrieved the message. I called him and expressed being angered by him leaving the detailed testing results on my answering machine for my children to hear and he did not care. ...HIPAA violation. You guessed it, another doctor added to the "Do Not Recommend" list. Sadly, that list has become very long.
