1 Star - Reception Manager Shelley's Lies & Dr. Etehad's Cover-Up Harm Patients…read more Dr. Etehad is an excellent doctor, and his staff (except one) are stellar! But the reception manager Shelley's actions are unacceptable. After switching providers in Bakersfield, my new doctor faxed a records request five weeks ago--I saw the fax confirmation. Shelley ignored it, lied in an email to me claiming she never got it, and even after I emailed her last week demanding she notify my doctor by the next day, she didn't call (I even gave her the information). My new doctor confirmed yesterday they've received anything. When I left a message and confronted Shelley, I demanded to speak to Dr. Etehad. He claimed he didn't get the request, clearly protecting her despite the fax proof AND EMAIL with my new doctors information excusing her delay that's stalling my care. My new doctor's office is confused why only Shelley handles records releases. Shelley's done this before. For my annual mammogram with prescribed ultrasound, she told radiology only one breast was approved, forcing me to choose--shocking their manager. When I needed my file for housing paperwork, she refused, then made me wait 15 minutes while she dawdled. For over a decade, I've endured Shelley's rude, condescending attitude toward me and others. Dr. Etehad seems aware but won't fire her. Shelley's lies and HIPAA violations risk patient health. I'm reporting to the California Medical Board. Avoid this practice until she's gone!

Told the Dr. (I'm very honest and this time it turned around and bit Mr in the....) That the ER have me 3 days worth of pain meds. He looked at me weird after two weeks when I asked for a script!! My pain had worsened and he knew that. He turns around and tells me that the car accident was not that severe and insinuated that i was drug searching! I was disrespected and on top of that starred at given "old.men" compliments...come on!! I switched doctors only after the Second visit! Ok, the area is not the suburbs but because it's in the hood I'm drug searching now!! I'm a cash patient so i go where it's least expensive.. Anyways... FAIL!! YUCK!! And RUDE!!

Dr. Kelyani Mehta, nephrologist, put my dad on dialysis due to kidney failure when we took him to…read morethe hospital about 3 years ago even though she could have preserved his kidneys. She was the reason he was subjected to a multitude of dialysis session for months when we learned from his current nephrologist that my dad does not need dialysis and should not be subjected to it. Even after we told her that his current nephrologist told us my dad does not need dialysis she kept insisting that he did. My dad has been off dialysis since we changed his care away from Dr. Mehta for over one year now and in fact his kidney condition is improving and remaining very stable with the care he is currently receiving. Do not trust doctors like this when they tell you you need treatment especially when it comes to treatment like dialysis where the doctor and the dialysis center are getting a lot of money for each session of dialysis. They are incentivized to keep you on dialysis. Dr. Mehta's treatment falls far below the standard of care for patients and it's immensely disappointing that is caring for other patients in the community.

Husband had his colonoscopy w/Dr Sofer. Sent him his results but GHOSTED him completely!! Dr Sofer never called us back after leaving several messages with office staff Breeze. She told us his PCP office could go over results with him. Husband's PCP office told us that was odd but was kind enough to do it. To sum up NO follow up, NO going over results of biopsy, NO return call after leaving several messages to have doctor or manager call us back. They would not even schedule his follow appt for him-why?! No one in upper management called us back to give a reason. That's not right! So not only does this office ignore patients, they have stalled my husband's care. Since we are having to wait months since for another procedure with another GI.

There's a calm, caring atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. I need to highlight Dr. Josephson's exceptional bedside manner. The Dr. listens carefully, explains things so that you can understand them, and treats you like a person, not just a number. I felt the entire visit that Dr. Josephson genuinely cared about my health and well-being, it was clear during our interaction. It's rare these days to find a doctor who takes the time to really understand what's going on and make you feel heard. I want to give special recognition to Catherine. She's truly the heartbeat of the office. Extremely professional, organized, and kind. She goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly, from scheduling, follow ups, and answering questions with patience and compassion. Catherine greeted me with a genuine smile and makes every visit feel welcoming. All the other medical facilities I have visited seem to prioritize quotas over patient care, Dr. Josephson's office was a breath of fresh air. They put health, integrity, and humanity first. I'm deeply grateful to have found a doctor and staff who truly care about their patients. I highly recommend Dr. Josephson and Catherine to anyone who values quality care from people who genuinely make a difference.
