    Agustin R.

    This was my second time coming here and as soon as I walked in, Nancy was waiting for me and knew my name and told me my room is ready. i'm a very punctual person and I always show up early to my appointments Let me tell you This is what you call being a professional thats something that I value a lot especially when I make appointment somewhere. It really bothers me when they're never ready for you at your set time. She's really good and really knowledgeable and attentive to the problem that you're getting treated for I I highly recommend her to anyone. She's really good at her job and knows what she's talking about she gave me some advice on what to do at home to help me with my situation and type of care I should be doing .

    I cannot recommend Dr. Ling enough! When I was a child, I ran from a stray dog and hit my knee on a fire hydrant. Fast forward to adulthood, and I've now developed arthritis in that same knee. Recently, it became so swollen that I couldn't walk on it for about two weeks. I started seeing Dr. Ling weekly for the past four weeks, and my knee has improved tremendously--I'd say it's about 90% back to normal! His expertise and care have made such a difference in my recovery. I truly appreciate his thoughtful approach and the time he takes to ensure I'm healing properly. I'll definitely continue coming in for monthly preventative care. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate doctor, Dr. Ling is the one to see!

    I can't say enough good things about my acupuncture session with Dr. Oh for my back pain. I walked in with tightness and discomfort that had been bothering me for weeks, and left feeling like a new person. The treatment was gentle, relaxing, and surprisingly soothing. By the end, the tension had melted away, and I could move so much more freely. This was truly a game-changer for my back -- highly recommend to anyone dealing with pain or stiffness!

He makes the to explain medical terms and anatomical functions of your conditions and best available procedures to correct the conditions. Furthermore, he is comfortable with going into greater details about how the procedure/ procedures will improve the medical conditions. I was so surprised that after decades of my mother having spinal surgeries and epidurals by traditional orthopedic surgeons, she was left is severe debilitating pain. Her only recourse was pain medication, which left her tired, sleepy, and hopeless every day. She had a L5/S1 fusion and c4/c5 herniated disk surgery, and recently was diagnosed with spondyliothis/ degenerative spine condition. To make matters worse, the L5/S1 fusion has compacted the above vertebrae and worn down the cushion in L4 to the point of bone on bone. We had been searching for a remedy for years, and we're only offered cortisone, epidurals, and ultimately fusion surgery (again), by doctor after doctor. Until.... We met Dr. Wu. In 15 minutes he explained an outpatient procedure that we had never heard of, that for the first time - actually made sense! So we gave it a try. In 15 minutes, Dr. Wu completed his recommended procedure on my mother. In 2 days, she was walking without a walking stick/ cane, not needing wheelchair assistance, not debilitated by severe pain, nor completely dependent on medications like nerve modulators, or opioid pain killers, or muscle relaxants to maintain her daily activities. A week later, I am truly amazed that his work has reduced her pain by more than 60% and now she is walking and smiling and laughing again. She has improved drastically, and now I am blessed to enjoy holding her hand while walking together - something we have not done since I was much younger. I missed so many years of this special experience with her. Thank you so much, Dr. Wu; for giving us new memories to rekindle. PS. Thank you for diagnosing and treating my bursitis. I can bend my knee again and walk without a painful limp. I had no idea the problem could be fixed so quickly and feel so much better! Sincerely, Yamina

From the very first visit, I felt heard and truly understood, which is something I haven't experienced with other specialists. What sets Dr. Robinson apart is his genuine commitment to finding the right solution for me, not just masking the symptoms. He is incredibly knowledgeable about a wide range of treatment options, from innovative therapies to established methods, and he takes the time to explain everything thoroughly, ensuring l am comfortable and confident in the chosen path. My quality of life has improved dramatically. I'm much more active and I look forward to the fun things in life. I've even taken up pickleball. Also, the atmosphere in the medical center is consistently welcoming and supportive. The entire team, from the front desk staff to the nurses and the doctors, treats me with kindness and respect. It really makes a difference when you're dealing with chronic issues. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Dr. Robinson to anyone struggling with pain. He is an exceptional physician and a genuinely caring person.

Dr. Ananth gave me two referrals that I was very desperate for, and I greatly appreciate that! They were referrals for treatments that they do not do in that office and are pretty extreme. He said he wanted me to exhaust all other options before giving me referrals to those two treatments. I did exhaust all other options, so he did finally give me those two referrals. Again, I'm very grateful to him for doing that because I don't think I would've been able to pursue those treatments without his referral or a referral by another psychiatrist. One thing that bothers me a lot, though, is that, instead of being offered Spravato, which is covered by my insurance, I could only do IV ketamine there. I don't know why they didn't offer Sp I experienced zero effect until my sixth treatment. Cash pay at that time for me was extremely expensive (about $600 per session). So, the first $3000 worth of IV Ketamine treatment was completely ineffective for me.

I didn't even realize how much I was struggling with things like my hearing, vision, and sense of smell until after my appointment, when I noticed I felt different almost like a new person! What I love most is how much he genuinely cares about his patients. He takes his time with you, listens, and doesn't make you feel rushed. I've been to chiropractors who see you for less than 10 minutes and then it's basically, "Okay, pay and bye." That is definitely NOT the experience here. You can tell he truly cares about his patients and takes pride in what he does. I absolutely love the way he works and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a chiropractor who actually takes the time to care for you!

First visit was spectacular, as dr Kian Javid relieved a lot of my on and off issues that I had going on with my back on and off. Due to day to day life and work. (I work for UPS) Due to reading his reviews prior it was mostly about him and his wonderful practice so I considered. unfortunately I had to terminate my business going into the 2nd visit.as of 4/14/2023 My main issue with this establishment is the lack of the "fine wording" that does not get communicated properly with the patients. I went to the website and looked and read everything. However it did not work out that way . I ended up having to pay 150.00 out of pocket FIRST VISIT just so my insurance can be legit and verified that I am not HMO well at least that's what the nice lady on my first visit told me. I didn't make a big deal due to thats probably how they do things there. however that was not communicated to me via phone when making my appointment as well as what is stated on their website. (Misguided and falsely advertised) 2nd visit came around same week and a different receptionist told me otherwise. She printed out some typed out guidelines stating "blue cross of California and not blue cross blue shield". Kept telling me to read it, but all I wanted was some clarity and understanding on how they are billing me. The guideline paper did NOT state or answer any of my questions I wanted to ask. Also, it's clear that they do not look over the patients chart because she asked me what my co pay was and she has a blown up photo copy of my insurance card sitting right in front of her. On top of it saying PPO and not HMO. Lol, I nicely told her what it was anyway, (10.00) and she rudely commented that NO, its more then that". Lady how are u going to tell ME what my amount is when clearly you can't even read the proof of insurance that's right in-front of you? This is not my first rodeo with the chiropractors and the doctors etc. I'm sure I know what my copay is. SECONDLY, I came in early to discuss how I will be billed meaning my (insurance) due to the 1st time charge of 150.00. (Which I would be reimbursed by them if my insurance covers them per conversation with the 1st receptionist/nurse of my visit) If I have insurance why would I want to pay for a service that is covered through my network? Common sense- I left and cancelled my business. she then told me she will contact me once she gets in contact with my insurance. I left and sat in their parking lot and pretty much just did her job for her. 10 minutes later with answers ...I called and verified the coverage "with Blue Shield of California" and sure enough I was 100% with-in network and covered. Sadly I was charged when I shouldn't have been, or at least help me understand vs sitting there trying to explain to me what their other blue cross blue shield patients dealt with and arguing with me what my copay is etc. I don't care how good the care and facility is, if I am treated otherwise by staff and I present my facts with proof and want some kind of valid understanding then I will NOT continue my business.

After two consultations, he gave me a painkiller injection in my lower back. Dr. Arita's diagnosis was accurate, and thanks to him, I have improved to an amazing extent. Also, when I had the injection in my lower back, the procedure was done in the doctor's office, so I didn't have to go to another hospital, which was very convenient. Also, two nurses were by my side all the time, holding my hand. The doctor also talked to me about various things, which helped me relax as I was scared of the injection, which was very reassuring. I live in OC, so it's a little far, but Dr. Arita carefully considers the treatment options, so I think he's a trustworthy doctor. He doesn't make me go back in for many times. First, he listens to me, identifies the area that hurts, prescribes the appropriate medicine, and if that doesn't work, he tells me the next treatment. Then, after I get better, he introduces me to physical therapy and releases me from my own consultation, so I don't have to go there unnecessarily. If I ever have any pain in the future I won't hesitate to go to him.
