I was referred to Dr. Dickinson for a hiatal hernia from my primary care doctor. He and the staff…read morewere extremely professional and responsive in addressing me as a new patient and getting me in immediately. Super anxiety ridden I called a few times with questions, they were great about answering my questions, getting back to me and never made me feel like a burden. He has super legit credentials from Sharp hospital. I went to his practice in La Mesa. He is beyond personable and does an excellent job of creating a safe space and comfortable environment for patients. He explores all options of treatments and gives solid recommendations as well as explains each option for treatment before recommending or scheduling any procedure. Most doctors are in a hurry to get you in and out, but he really wants you to understand your options. Love this about him! He genuinely cares about his patients and love what he does and it shows. His office staff are super kind and patient. They keep you informed and do a great job of communicating. I really appreciated that. How Mary manages all the patients with a positive attitude, coordinates everything, works in the Operating room and remembers everyone by name is beyond me. In reading the other reviews I was a little shocked to hear about the negative comments of others. Unfortunately people only tend to leave reviews when they have negative experiences, (hence the blank profiles with a total of 5 reviews - all negatively blasting businesses) but I was beyond blown away at the care and personalized patient experience I received from Dr. Dickinson and his staff. Also please keep in mind due to HIPPA and patients privacy I highly doubt Dr. Dickinson and his staff come on here to tell their side of those negative reviews and instead maintain their integrity and keeping patient confidentiality, again demonstrating another one of his remarkable qualities. Also, really not fair to doctors who have their businesses on yelp. Nonetheless, I think it's safe to say you're in the hands of someone who cares and is qualified. I would recommend him to anyone, family or friend.

From Dr. Ramin Raiszadeh, and his Physician's Assistants to the Nurses, Coordinators and office staff, all have been stellar on my way to wellness. In 2014, I was in an industrial auto accident. I spent the next year with an Orthopedic Surgeon trying to find answers and solutions to my recurring and debilitating neck & Arm pain. He finally told me I needed to see a spinal specialist, and was sending me to the best. (The doctor whom he sent his mother and Friends to). In early 2016 I met with Dr. Ramin Raiszadeh and his P.A.'s. I was feeling lost and helpless. I refused to take ANY Pain management medication before, and to this day will not, (I have a wife children that need me present in this life). They listened to me, my wife.... all of my concerns, worries and we came up with a non-invasive plan to try therapy and local injections to try and relieve, strengthen and heal my 3-Level Cervical Disc Herniations. After some time I realized my injuries were becoming worse and I was unraveling with pain. I went back to ask for surgery. Spine Institute's staff were able to get my insurance company (The US Dept. of Labor, a tedious beast to deal with), to approve all things needed swiftly. I had a 3-Level -ACDF (Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion). I went into surgery In chronic pain, Neck, Shoulders, Arm and Numb Fingers, and over-all, poorly existing. I woke up a few hours later.... Groggy but PAIN FREE. I spent the next few months healing/fusing and strengthening in Physical Therapy. THE ONLY THING A SAY TO PEOPLE IN PAIN FROM CHRONIC BACK/NECk PAIN IS "DO NOT PUT IT OFF! I WISH I HAD THE FUSION RIGHT AWAY". I have recommended Dr. Ramin Raiszadeh and his team to at least several hundred people I've come across in the past few years and will continue to do so for as long as he still practices. I hope in reading this you can feel reassurance about facing possible surgery. I can not thank them enough for giving me back the life I was losing. They are THE BEST!

Dr. Raiszadeh is an excellent surgeon -- my surgery went very well, and I appreciate his skill and…read morecare. However, the office staff is a serious problem. They are extremely slow, especially when it comes to paperwork. I handle multiple doctors' offices across different counties, so I know how professional offices should operate. This isn't just "unacceptable" -- it is unacceptable. It has now been beyond 10 business days, and simple forms are still not completed. Instead of efficiency, I've been met with excuses, as if patients don't understand how offices work. On top of that, the wait times are ridiculous. Even when you arrive on time, you end up sitting far too long before being seen. It adds unnecessary stress to an already frustrating experience. Because of this, I dread coming to this office. While Dr. Raiszadeh deserves recognition for his surgical excellence, the staff's inefficiency and excessive wait times drag the overall experience down to an inferior rating.

First, Dr. Buckley's Nurse walked over to my bed and her name is Amanda. Amanda said she's going to take my Blood Pressure. Amanda said my Blood Pressure was kind of at a higher level because I am stressed out. Then Amanda dropped off some medical supplies on this metal table nearby my bed. Amanda said that Dr. Buckley will be walking over to treat my Huge Pus Filled Blister on my left arm. I said okay. Then after Dr. Buckley made his Emergency Room visits to a few other patients before me. Dr. Buckley walked over to my room one hour later. Dr. Buckley is an older man doctor who was very professional, caring and listened to my concerns about my medical condition. Dr. Buckley examined my left hand. My left hand and my left arm was very red and has inflammation on these areas. My left arm was very red and painful. I told Dr. Buckley this house that I am currently living in now has NO AIR Conditioning. This past humidity and very Hot weather conditions has caused my sensitive skin to break out in Allergies and in other serious skin conditions. Dr. Buckley said to me that I should ask the owner of this place to install an Air Conditioning System or buy a lot of Fans to cool down these Hot Weather Conditions. I agree with Dr. Buckley. Then Dr. Buckley said he is going to remove my whole Pus Filled Blister and take off the skin at the site. I saw Dr. Buckley remove the Pus inside my Blister . Dr. Buckley then put this fluid into this large tube with that Q-Tip. Dr. Buckley said this culture will be sent out to an outside Lab. The Test Results will come back in 5 days later. Their Charge Nurse will be calling me with the Test Results soon. Dr. Buckley diagnoses was I contracted Cellulitis. Then Dr. Buckley said I will need to wash the infected skin area with Dial Antibacterial Liquid Soap. Afterwords, I need to put on a new fresh Bandage. I should only change my Bandage once a day. I said sure no problem. Dr. Buckley told me the Redness and the burning sensation I am feeling at that area has been diagnosed as Cellulitis. The Registered Nurse gave me 5 Packets of Triple Antibiotics to put on my left arm and the inflammation . I also need to cover my wound with a sterile bandage once a day. I said I can do this procedure. Dr. Buckley said also he will write up an oral medication Prescription for this Antibiotic called Keflex. This Keflex Antibiotic needs to be taken ASAP. I need to follow the directions and take this prescription medication for a 7 days time period . Dr. Buckley told me that my Cellulitis Infection will feel much better my skin will be cleared up. Dr. Buckley gave me effective quality medical care. I spent about (2 hours) in the Emergency Room Bed. I saw the Registered Nurse send me important information messages in their Sharp App. Amanda the registered nurse also was printing out my Discharge Paperwork for me to follow their instructions. And to take to home with me to my house. I asked Amanda this nurse to please give me a Free Ride from their Uber Company. In order to drive me back to my house. It's only a 14 minute drive one way back to my Home. The price was $20.00. Amanda said that Sharp Memorial Hospital Management has stopped giving out FREE UBER RIDES to their patients. This is because their Sharp Memorial Hospital was to pay for every Uber Ride that is issued out to their patients. There was Nobody who lives in my house who could pick me up from this Sharp Memorial Hospital. Because none of these 4 people who are tenants , they don't own their own cars. I am the only person who has bought and I have owned my same Car for (31) years now. My car is operating in excellent condition. I was very disappointed that Amanda the nurse didn't give be me a FREE Uber Ride back to my house. Amanda said she can only issue me a FREE PRONTO BUS PASS . This FREE BUS PASS will still be Active for a two months period. It will expire on November 17, 2026. Their Security Guard his name is Howard he was very friendly and helpful. Amanda their RN told Howard to walk with me to the Bus Stop number 102 to pick me up at that location. Howard walked me over to the bus stop bench was two blocks away from their Sharp Memorial Hospital. Then I had to wait about (30 minutes) later for the MTS Bus Driver picked me up at this bus stop to take me home. I had to get off about 6 different Bus Stops before I was driven back to my destination towards my house that day.

In fact, I've given up on them and have switched back to in-person monthly visits. The biggest improvement needs to come in telephone services. In spite of having 5-6 non physician staff there, THEY NEVER ANSWER THE PHONE! Instead, you just get a recorded message and a promise that they'll get back to you in 24-48 hours! Sorry, but that's not good enough. The Ruffin Road office is very nice in a beautiful building with good parking. I'm giving the practice 3 stars for now.
