My husband started seeing Dr. Ron Golan recently in the urology group. He was quite pleased with…read morehis first appointment and delighted he found a great urologist. Dr. Golan is a young and capable scientist. He has a good sense of humor but is also very professional. He's well educated having graduated UPENN medicine followed by Columbia, while still keeping current on evolving scientific research and data. You'd be lucky to be his patient with his bedside manner and strong scientific and clinical skills. Office was easy to get to, park and navigate to Dr. Golan's office. Highly recommend! See their website for more information.

Zero stars. The sample instructions given to me by Urgent Care staff say 'Fill to the line'. They…read moreneed to be clear the sample will be rejected if it's the tiniest bit over. If the sample is too small it gets rejected and if it's the slightest hair over it's rejected. They've rejected so many samples, and I read the instructions word for word. This is so easily fixable by printing a range on the sample cup. When someone is sick as a dog it's not a great time to screw with them. WE ARE SICK. FIX THIS PROBLEM. I would say that the urgent care nurses, and anyone else handing over the sample kits, should be trained in how picky PDL is, but that's not really the issue. The issue is that, per the literal instructions, the sample size target is nearly impossible to hit. Under the line - go home and play with your stool again tomorrow. Over the line - go home and play with your stool again tomorrow. Repeatedly rejecting samples is life threatening. This is not how anyone wants to spend their last moments. The PDL front counter is merciless.

Disgusting the only redeeming thing about this place were the female nurses. Front desk was also rude. This is exactly why women don't trust the medical industry. He also asked me if I "come in to the doctors often" as if I'm a hypochondriac. I haven't been in 2 years because these experiences are traumatizing. Do some sexual harassment training because women don't want to be touched on the thigh without consent.

I am not a frequent flyer at the dr or emergency room so being treated so poorly was a shock to me. I was discharged in extreme pain with no recourse. If I can't get severe pain treated at the hospital where am I supposed to go? If this wasn't inadequate care and early discharge I don't know what is.

Avoid this clinic if you're not already a patient…read more Do not come here for vaccines unless you're an established patient. We scheduled appointments for both COVID and flu vaccines because this was one of the few clinics offering COVID shots for 2-year-olds. After arriving, we were told they couldn't administer COVID vaccines and could only do flu shots. What they didn't tell us is that you must be an established patient even for flu shots. Instead of a $20 vaccine covered by insurance, we were charged: $140 for a new patient "establishment" fee (never disclosed in advance) $25 for vaccine administration $20 for the actual vaccine A simple visit that should have taken 10 minutes at CVS turned into a two-hour ordeal and $185 in charges. The staff seemed confused and unprepared. Save yourself the time, frustration, and unexpected costs -- go somewhere else.

Rebecca Huerta -Sussman…read more 28 minutes ago June 16, 2025 Hello. I am writing a review of the Goleta Neighborhood Clinic and the operators who take questions or assist the patient with many issues like pharmacies, etc. I go to the Goleta Clinic on Calle Real. My doctor is Dr. Dennis Baker. I cannot say enough to complement this physician I see on Mondays. I have had other physicians at the Goleta Clinic and they have all been good, however, Dr. Baker is by far the "best" Internist I see that I feel "very" comfortable, at ease and trustworthy. He is a patient- friendly physician who always treats me with dignity and respect, and I can discuss any issue I may have at the time I see him, and I respect and trust and feedback he gives me regarding any health question or other subject. He listens and he does not have a "God-complex" that many physicians often exhibit. He is a great asset to the SBNClinics. The operators who take calls for the Clinics I have found excellent, and they have often helped me navigate the pharmacies lack of cooperation, and relay information to the provider when he/she is not present on a given day. Kudos to them! And Kudos to the Medical and Office Staff of the Goleta Clinic. They are always kind and helpful. I always feel welcomed and understood even though on a certain day I may feel grouchy. Thank you to all of you who do such an excellent and much needed service. : )

Our entire family received our care here for years. Paid the concierge fee of over $400 but the…read moreproblem is there is not even basic service! The previous reviews mentioning rude staff are accurate. They don't always ask for your insurance card or they're too busy to take it. So you may get a bill six months later for the visit, full cost, from their billing service. If you call the office and complain, they'll say we don't have your insurance card on file. Do they call you or does the billing department call you, like one would assume a concierge practice would do, prior to billing the insurance? No. Since the we received the bill from their billing department six months after the visit, if the billing department refiles the claim with insurance this time, the insurance will deny the claim because it was submitted too late... Not sure what the problem is, front staff or billing, but this scenario happened twice to our family in the past year. Told the office staff we were taking our business and concierge fee elsewhere. Of course the office sent a letter saying my calling to complain about the billing issue was abusive. What's abusive is the way the staff treats patients. We're already paying over $400 for concierge fees annually, plus our high monthly health insurance premiums, our deductible, your office doesn't ask for my insurance card and then bills me six months later for the full price of the visit, over $200, and they don't think the client is going to be a tad upset?
