I have ucla as my group. So usually I feel my questions are answered but then sometimes I find, at…read moretest or procedure time, I was still given the simplified version, and was no longer sure I made the right decision about care. Usually i dont like that. But today I'm again seeing another thing which is people going about their jobs and filtering out the unnecessary disturbances that are bombarding the place! The yop of the list is slamming of DOORS! In many offices here at 200, no one says anything when a door literally shakes their desk and slams like a bomb. In the quiet waiting area with ppl whispering, it's literally plus 60-70db over ambient. Thats equivalent to someone turning on a stereo full volume by accident. It can happen 5-10 times in one minute as it's a busy place. And you jump! Simple detail adjust door closer with a Phillips screwdriver in like one minute. I have been coming to this building for 14 years and its the same! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU ALL. Maint you should be ashamed of your lazy asses. Admin, If you arent noticing this, you are not concerned with patients. Apparently, doctors techs researchers receptionists being able to concentrate is not high on the list here at UCLA. They have most of us well trained as customers: to expect bad service. update 8/25: I wrote the above between the first and 2nd half of my appointment 8/24/26. To JA below: you pride yourself on latest tech but what about everyday tech? You aren't too concerned. I'm sure it doesn't happen in your office! I was surprised and well validated to see that the 3 stars i randomly chose was HIGHER than the average 2.5 stars you have scored on average of all previous reviews (the ones not filtered out). Who are the People giving you #1 in California, what authority do they have to say that, and what are they looking at when they do? Just another company making money. Incidentally on my visit yesterday, to illustrate what i said above about not getting full explanations, i was told by the tech that there were 3 scans in the process not 2, as various doctors had told me, and that I could do only the first. The tech explained that if i didn't do the 2nd hour scans (he says i was only approved NOT to do one of 3 scans, the cat scan, and leave out the cat scan, and i was supposed to do a 2nd scan i didn't know about. I had been told catscan was the only scan in addition to the first, so they were planning to do 2 MORE, and i had to stay for the 2nd hour anyway to do 1 of the 2. I said, if they need the catscan later, they will have to inject radioactive dye again, right? 'yes' he said. So I said, just do all 3 scans. i think the injection is more concerning than the xrays. So he prooceeded to do all the scans AND THERE WERE FOUR SCANS NOT THREE!!!! What is so f'ing hard about explaining what you are f'ing doing? I want to understand it the way YOU understand it. Not a Gong Show version. Not professional.

I was headed to Pauley Pavilion for the NCAA Volleyball game and struggled with a place to eat…read moreclose by. There was plenty in walking distance, but didn't find anything I really wanted. And to make matters more difficult, the drive into LA was long...and I had to use the bathroom...eek! As I walked to the busy food area, I walked passed the medical center and figured....they should have a bathroom. And they did! Solving my first problem and ready to eat, I was exiting but walked passed the busy in-house cafeteria. Wow was it busy! I was here...so I decided to check it out...and it was fantastic. There were many food stations and everything being made to order. Why walk down to the populated busy food area when there are wonderful options so close by! There were almost too many options...but I decided on the tostada salad. I got it loaded with beans, chicken, lettuce, cheese, olives, green onion, and pico...all on top of a baked shell. It was very delicious and as a combo, it came with a medium drink...which all totaled about eleven dollars. If I need to go to Pauley Pavilion again...I will stop here for sure!

This medical center is a little bit weird to get to; if you're going for the first time I would…read morehonestly recommend plugging it into your gps and follow the instructions exactly because if you make the wrong turn onto the wrong exit you'll probably end up going down the freeway in either direction. It looks like it's right next to the freeway, but it's actually below/behind it. The parking situation was a little confusing as a guest too - there's a big lot on on the left of the med center itself which was totally full to my eye when I came on a Tuesday in April. I wasn't sure if it was staff only so I ended up driving further away to another open lot to the southwest of the med center. I didn't see any signs indicating payment was required and I asked an EMS staff member who was hanging out there and he said it was fine for guests. There is a wellness walkway that runs around the perimeter of the hospital and I had to walk along it to get to the main entrance - I was pretty fast and it was still a 10-15 minute walk so bear that in mind. Coming inside, you check in with the guard and show your drivers license which they scan to give you a visitor's pass. The med center is basically a giant cross shape with north, south, east, and west wings so it's easy to navigate. Any staff member or security agent can give you directions to wherever you need to go. There are central elevators in the middle that take you to the inpatient area; the first floor seems pretty much all outpatient clinics, plus the ED. I could tell it was an older building, but it was clearly still functional/not in disrepair or anything. There's a decent size cafeteria in the southwest area with a good size Starbucks too - I didn't eat there but the food actually looked pretty good for a med center cafeteria. They had both hot food and pre-made things (hot and cold). I came here as a visiting medical resident so I cant comment on the healthcare services but the outpatient clinics seem nice!

I visited the allergy and immunology care and they were very helpful and the receptionist is super friendly and personable. Unfortunately, I left some medications here by accident and they were not kept, nor was I notified. I called and received no call back. So, lesson learned, don't leave anything you need there or they throw it out. I do like the level of concern and most of them smile which is nice.

I should've known something was up because I kept calling to find out if they took my insurance and no one answered. MULTIPLE TIMES FOR 20-30 MINUTES AT A TIME. I finally drove down there and was greeted by a completely closed and locked office with a sign that says by appointment only. Uhhhhhh isn't that just a regular doctors office then? This is a gross mislabeling of a business. I went back and checked their google reviews and the way they respond to customers with the same complaint as me is DISGUSTING AND SO RUDE. This place deserves to be reported to the Better Business Bureau for misrepresentation. I would give zero stars if I could. Also, it's located on the 11th floor. Great place for people who likely have a hard time walking. Nice job!

I recently stayed at the Tiverton for an outpatient procedure at RR/UCLA Medical Center. I was…read morequite nervous and uneasy about my procedure, but the beautiful, peaceful setting and friendly staff made a huge difference. I originally had booked 2 nights, but after my procedure I felt I needed an extra day of rest before the long travel home. The office was able to extend my stay another night, for which I am extremely thankful. I enjoyed take out suppers at the tables in the lovely courtyard and the hotel's simple but ample breakfasts on the patio overlooking a peaceful church. The parking was such a blessing and the lobby, meditation room and library are such thoughtful amenities. I really think my recovery was improved by the positive, restful experience I had at the Tiverton. The room wasn't fancy, but it was clean and functional. The price was very reasonable considering it was the middle of summer in LA and there was no tax! I hope I don't have to have another procedure at UCLA but if I do, I will definitely be booking a room at the Tiverton! Thank you for making my immediate recovery a pleasant experience.

They offer a shuttle to get you to any UCLA campus. Customer service is excellent. If you are in need of a hotel to stay at while you're a patient at UCLA make sure that you tell them that you have the surgery, because you get a discount on your stay.

*** Best spot for mental health crisis in LA. ***…read more Acute psychosis due to cannabis is on the rise. Even general psychosis seems to happen a lot. I brought someone to the ER here ~ 3am due to delusions and a fear they might wander off. It's a scary and potentially dangerous situation. There was a psyche doctor available in the ER. After 30 min exam the doc assigned a room. (Any adult patient may be admitted against their will for 72 hrs if they are deemed to be a danger to either themselves or to others.) Docs can also petition the court for an add'l 14 days if more treatment needed for release. It took ~ 3wks for docs to finally identify the best cocktail of drugs to regain a lucid state, coupled of course with daily food and sleep. Nurses and docs are plentiful compared to relatively fewer number of mental patients. A high level of consideration and concern. *** I suggest Resnick for mental health. ***
