Summary: Clinical staff is great. Long wait times (understaffed or busy). Single unprofessional…read moreemployee. Be prepared to wait a few hours. We were in the lobby for 4 hours before being seen by a doctor. I'm assuming they are under staffed. There was a girl who was deathly ill and sobbing in the lobby. I don't think anyone checked on her or spoke to her despite her cries. I separated my shoulder. The first time they called me was to get my blood pressure and general info, so I was invited inside the clinical area. While I was sitting there, some dude was walking around. I don't remember exactly what he was wearing, but I don't think he was in scrubs. He was telling me he thinks my shoulder is broken and that it's gonna be a lengthy recovery. Not something anyone would want to hear. I questioned his credibility and asked him really? He said we can "bet money on it"... It was really unprofessional. He wanted to prove some weird point that he's confident that he can guess my diagnosis. Later the doctor came with the X-Ray results and it ended up just being a separation. And no broken bones (thanks weird unprofessional dude for the awkward interaction and trying to convince me that I had a broken bone). The clinical staff was great. The doctor was caring and answered my questions. I was also helped by a male nurse, he was good too and hardworking. If only the wait time wasn't so long, but I understand the clinical staff did their best. Either they are understaffed or lots of people had incidents that day, hence the long wait time.

The dentist also does an amazing job and makes accomodations to ensure comfortability of patients and their families. He is gentle and very informative and listens to concerns with an attentive ear. The assistant also offers solid advice on preventative care and the hygenist Jennifer is rather kind and compassionate as well. A great place to visit if you are in need. On a side note if you do need a root canal and are on IEHP oftentimes you will be referred down the mountain to Apple Dental Center.

The staff needs to be trained to help a patient and not to alienate. I've worked in the dental industry for over 30 years....checking eligibility is a very remedial task. I wonder if the Doctor knows how his front office staff treats patients? It's a very poor reflection on the dentist. If the Doctor would like me to show his staff the error of their ways...please let me know.

I must update my review on May 12 Tuesday 2026 for a few weeks. I have been suffering from chest…read morepain and pain going down my left arm since I've never smoked and I've always exercised and lived a pretty healthy life. I ignored it stupidly on that particular day I felt the pain was worse than ever and I better go to the ER here to our wonderful hospital. Mountain Community Hospital in Lake Arrowhead. I went there feeling pretty cocky and thinking this will be nothing well once again. I was there approximately 7:45 in the morning and I was just complaining about chest pain and the incredible doctor and nurses took the bull by the horn and recognized the signs and started taking x-rays and what not and I'm saying it's nothing. It's nothing. I'm feeling pain here is there but immediately they saw and recognized issues and me being the stupid person that I am I'm saying no, I have to go to Spain in three days and they were fantastic. I cannot say oh my God how wonderful they were. They took the ball by the horn like I said and they immediately took some test and they said you're going to have to go down the hill to Riverside Community and I just thought that was crazy well fast-forward that was on 12 May a week later I ended up having open-heart surgery yes and I must say they literally saved my life that was told to me several times by the doctors and the cardiologist at Riverside Community. I would've had several heart attacks in Spain or the airplane had I not been at Riverside Community and had my open heart surgery and had a ER at Mountain community done what they did they literally saved my life that entire staff between the doctors and the entire staff between the nurses the radiologist. They are five star all the way we up here on the mountain are so blessed with the entire staff and the doctors they are our angels truly are angels. We need to stop complaining about the stupid stuff and realize how blessed we are to have the staff at Mountain community. They are really the best stop complaining about the stupid little stuff because they saved my life and I bless them every day. I wake up, I was told by my neurologist at Cedar Sinai that 82% of people don't even make it to the surgery table 82% and that would've been me had it not been the staff at the ER at Mountain community. We owe them so much. They are truly my heroes. Thank you so much ER department at Mountain community God bless you.

It's taken me quite a while to finish writing this review because I have so many good things to say…read moreabout Dr. Vasquez and the entire staff here at Optima Health. I've been struggling to find words good enough to describe the amazing people here. I recommend them at every opportunity! I just had no idea what it meant to receive high quality care from a physician until I started coming here last year. What a refreshing change from the status quo From the first visit when I met Dr. Vasquez, I knew right away I hit the lottery of healthcare. He spoke to me in a way that made me feel heard and cared for PERSONALLY by him. It's hard to explain, but this man makes everyone feel special; it's not just me who feels this way. The staff also speaks very highly of him, and they knew exactly what I was talking about when I shared my experience with them. Speaking of staff; a special shoutout to Samantha, Kaylee, and Julia. Not to say that everyone else here isn't amazing as well, but these 3 individuals shine extra bright. Whether it's by phone, or when I come to the office for an appointment, my experience with them has always left me wanting to tell more people about this office. Well worth the drive, even if you don't live near Crestline (I drive 50 minutes to get here). It's so beautiful in Crestline and there's much to do if you can spare some extra time to go exploring before or after your appointment!

Doctor is very good but Arrowhead office staff and nurse don't seem to care…read more First round the nurse disposed my urine sample instead of sending it to the lab, "because there was no blood in the urine". Had to come next day to submit another one. Meanwhile, there was no way to get a response from the doctor till I actually came to the appointment. Few days after I spoke to the doctor I decided to do at-home pH test that showed I needed specific antibiotic. Took a full day of calling the office and texting the nurse. Was about to go to ER since my symptoms worsened when got a call from the nurse saying she sent prescription in for me. Got 90 antibiotic pills from pharmacy with no indication of how long to take them for - obviously, very possible mistake. Texted the nurse - no response, called office - took efforts to convince them that something may be wrong and I need to double-check with the doctor. Called another line and at last found out that it's only 7 and not 30 days I should take antibiotic for. Very frustrated! UPD: right after I posted this review, got a text response from the nurse, picture attached
