This negative review is difficult to post but I do feel that prospective patients should be made…read moreaware of the challenges you may have in choosing Dr. Kaldas as your primary doctor. As a person, Dr. Kaldas is very kind and knowledgeable and I wish that he had not joined Jiva Health because since that transition, the communication in getting through to his office is absolutely frustrating. You will be directed to Jiva Health and will not be able to communicate with Dr. Kaldas' office. I left numerous messages and sent an email with no response from his office (or Jiva Health) regarding a referral that I needed. I have since had to find another primary doctor due to the lack of communication from his office which is a shame. Also, since joining Jiva health, I got the feeling that it is discouraged for doctors to refer their patients to specialist outside the Jiva system (My insurance allows me to go to anyone in their network). I had to repeat multiple times who I wanted to be referred to because they lost all their communication information to other doctors that are not in the Jiva system. I eventually got the referral but he was hesitant to do so.

She was as concerned as I was and knew my anxiety was through the roof so she did everything she could to get me into specialists and get me the care I need to address a very difficult medical issue that's hard to figure out why it happened. She kept me informed as soon as test results were available and took time to explain everything and help calm me down. I got to see just how smart and knowledgable she is since dealing with this medical issue since I usually only saw her for well checks. I was going to try and find a doctor here in the Central Valley after moving from the Bay Area due to the horrible traffic, but I'd rather deal with the traffic than change my doctor.

Dr. Wong was recommended to me by a family member and he has been my doctor, my wife's doctor, and…read moremy son's doctor for many years. He was also my mother's doctor before her passing from cancer. I read some reviews below talking about wait times. I can sympathize with their frustration, but I have never witnessed some of the times mentioned below. I know from experience that doctors don't run late because they are out playing golf. They run late for reasons like: they were responding to a hospital or care facility for a patient emergency or people show up late to their appts in the office which pushes ALL of the office schedule out of alignment for the rest of the day - the only way to recover would be to either cancel appts or he skips lunch for the entire office. I never doubt for a moment that he doesn't have myself or my families needs and concerns at heart. When my mom was in the hospital with a medical emergency, and her assigned doctor wasn't taking her recovery seriously (risking a case of renal failure), I brought in doctor Wong who took over and saved my mom's kidneys and probably her life too. My mom stayed with him as her doctor even after she was diagnosed with cancer that took her in two months. Dr. Wong was always attentive and honest about her outlook. He even called me after hours many times to check on my mom, discuss my mom's health and cancer, and was there for my mom and I when she was passing. He knew she was not a fan of doctors and he tailored his care and responses to try and put her at ease and encourage her continued interaction in her preventative care. He even recommended a fantastic heart doctor for my mom. My interactions with doctor Wong have been the same. He's honest and upfront about medical issues. He refers me to specialists when the need calls for it, and he doesn't just come in and lift my arm and walk out. He thoroughly regards all of my health history to help try and keep my healthy. He even operates two offices - one in Dublin and one in Livermore at the time of this review (I think he had one in Pleasanton that closed). This helps make his services available to multiple areas of the community. I trust doctor Wong and appreciate his care.

This is based upon a visit my husband (the handsome man)…read moreseveral years ago. Yet, I feel it is important to write this review and possibly save others from a similar experience. My husband has a extremely high tolerance for pain. So, when he says he is in pain, he means it. When he states he's willing to see a doctor, that means something is definitely wrong. And I get frightened because he doesn't care for doctors. Can't blame him; we've had more than our share of doozey doctors. A friend of ours recommended Dr. Peer and my husband scheduled an appointment with him. I went along as it is helpful to have an extra set of ears during doctor appointments. My husband explained his pain and that his urine was a brownish/red color. He and I both told the doctor we felt a urine test should be done, yet the doctor disagreed. We had to ask this man and a nurse three times to perform a simple urine test.The third time, we had to be not-so-friendly and were very firm about having the simple urine test done. No surprise to us, the urine test showed there was indeed a problem. My husband then went to a different doctor. A a kidney stone was diagnosed and treated by the competent doctor via surgery. Neither my husband nor I returned to Peer's office nor would we recommend him. Think about it, a patient has urinary problems and extreme pain yet a doctor doesn't want to do a urine test? Yikes.

Sadly, to put such a negative review on her behave. I was in the doctors office for exactly 2 hours and in her waiting room for 20 to 25 min. and just to be rushed out of there. I never got a physical examination and we talked for a few min about my hand pain that I been having for 8 months. Every time I wanted to talk to her about some other issues I felt like she was in such a hurry. She would just say to me okay I will be right back which meant she was done because all I got was some referrals to see a Orthopedic Surgeon and Neurologist. As a first time patient it would of been nice to introduce her self to me and sit and talk about any concerns I have. I was seen by Dr. Zehra last year and she was very through and was not in a hurry to get me out.

Referrals to the correct physician and maintenence of the patients care. In return we were so dissappointed in the office including the staff. As a representative of the Stanford Healthcare you expect excellence in knowledge and care for your patients and their needs. I did all the work to get my dad to the right physicians. When we needed paperwork filled out she was unable to assist as she lacked the knowledge of how to fill out paperwork (i.e disablity paperwork or family paperwork to care for declining family members...etc) My father was diagnosed with multiple myeloma and had been seeing Oncologists locally whome are treating his cancer. He ended up fracturing both hips due to the cancer, my father was hospitalized for almost a month and is now recovering in a rehabilitation center. During that time, we notified Dr. WIllkom's office so she would be aware in the events she refused to follow up. I as a Stanford Health Care Hospital employee am very disappointed in this office. I work directly with physicians and advanced medical providers who provide C-I-CARE for their families. We Stanford employees are highly trained on how to treat patients and their family members. This office clearly needs to repeat their HEALTHSTREAM modules!!
