My husband's primary doctor referred him here to receive a stress test. However upon arrival all he got was an EKJ test. My husband tried to explained all his symptoms and concerns to the doctor but he was constantly cut off in between sentences, the doctor told him that he was "wasting his time" explaining and left him with a questionable your fine. He also told my husband with a very bad attitude "I decide what test to perform and if you don't like it, then go somewhere else" I was shocked and it took all of me not to cuss his disrespectful ass out. This was my husbands second time coming there and was in and out in minutes with no consideration! The nurse at the front was helpful and I thank her for listening, however that doctor should loose his license for being so disrespectful. I have NEVER in my life witnessed that behavior from a doctor. My husband is very upset but we will definitely go somewhere else and look into reporting this "doctor"

Every staff/provider in this office is unprofessional, condescending, and disrespectful towards…read moretheir patients. They interrupt, speak to patients as if they are inferior, and do not honor their appointment times. I arrived to my appointment 20 minutes early and was not seen until 50 minutes after my appointment time, so I waited in the office for over an hour. Not one single provider in this office is welcoming or kind. I had multiple appointments and never met with Dr. Schwartz once. Staff seem to care more about being employed in Beverly Hills, the front desk receptionist never fails to mention it. They don't care about providing care or offering basic hospitality skills to their patients from vulnerable backgrounds. Absolutely terrible. Follow up as of April 2026: Receptionists Brianna, Jade, and Tanya are truly some of the most rude and patronizing medical staff I have ever encountered. The receptionists, specifically Brianna, create an extremely uncomfortable environment with their condescending attitudes and lack of care. Every time you call, they immediately place you on hold for 10+ minutes, only to hear them laughing, gossiping, and clearly not prioritizing patients. I know this because I have witnessed the same behavior in person while waiting in the office. Trying to schedule an appointment with the doctor is always a frustrating experience. They will confirm availability multiple times over the phone, only to literally yell and argue with you in person and claim "he's not here" or act like you were given incorrect information. There is no accountability, only attitude and unnecessary arguments. Even simple requests, like asking for copies of my own medical documents, are treated as if I'm asking for something unreasonable. They make basic patient care feel like a burden and seem annoyed by having to do their jobs. You often have to argue just to be treated with basic respect. For a cardiology office, where patients are often already dealing with stress and serious health concerns, the lack of compassion and professionalism is unacceptable. Patients deserve kindness, clear communication, and respect not hostility and distrust the moment they walk in.
