It was my first time here and I was impressed by how organized and thorough everything was…read more Google Maps threw me a little off because it was telling me to enter into the parking for physicians only, but if you follow the signs themselves, you'll find the correct parking for patients. I turned into a huge multi-story parking garage that's right across from the emergency room, which is where I needed to go. When I entered the emergency room, I was first met by security who searched my bag. Next, I was sent to a window where someone asked the reason for my visit. Then I was handed a piece of paper to fill out with my info. I then had to get in line to turn my paper in at another window. The person there also made a copy of my ID card and put a bracelet around my wrist. I then had to sit back in the waiting area until my name was called. After my name was called, I was sent into an exam room where my vitals were taken and I was again asked about my symptoms. From there, I was sent to another counter where they asked for my insurance and I was handed a "passport" card that let me know how far along I was in having my case processed. I was sent down the hall to the right where they then took my blood and urine. From there, a doctor took me into an exam room where more tests were done specific to my case. Afterwards, I was sent back into the waiting room to wait for my results. I realized they had sent me in a big clockwise loop that brought me back to where I started. The first doctor I encountered was while the nurse was checking my vitals. I didn't even realize he was on my case. I thought he was just on break. It was only when the nurse spoke to him that I figured out he was listening in the whole time. At first he seemed dismissive because at that point I had told the nurse my pain level had gone down to 0, but when I told him prior to that I had never felt pain like that before, he went ahead and asked for further tests to be taken. The second doctor was casual, easy going, and chatty both to me and the nurse who assisted him. The first test he did wasn't showing anything, but the second test revealed what was afflicting me. If he hadn't been so thorough, those things might have been missed. The most important thing is that both doctors weren't quick to dismiss my case. Otherwise, it would've been a domino effect of something getting missed and getting worse. However, since they went forward to genuinely try and figure out what was wrong with me, the domino effect now is I know what's wrong with me and now I need to figure out how to fix it. The hours of waiting weren't the best. It was only towards the end that I realized there was free WiFi that didn't require a password. However, the passport card they gave me did tell me how long each test would take. What I didn't realize was it meant the wait time wasn't for getting the tests themselves, but the wait after. Still, I'd rather they run the tests properly instead of rushing through them and missing something. All that time waiting, I was also holding it in to go to the restroom because I was afraid I'd miss them calling out my name. It was again only towards the end that I realized the restroom was around the corner from where security was and they call out your name loud enough so that you can hear it even if you're in the restroom. I also recommend bringing a light jacket. The day I came it was hot, but after hours of waiting in the waiting room or being examined in the exam rooms, I was shivering. It got to the point the doctor thought I was scared. The last snag I had was when I was finally out and trying to leave the parking garage. I kept scanning my ticket, but the screen wasn't reading it. It also did a weird thing where half the screen was cut off. I got out of my car, but couldn't find an attendant anywhere. It was only when I was gesturing to the car behind me that the machine wasn't working that an attendant came to reset it. I hope that nothing bad enough happens again where I'm forced to visit another emergency room, but at least I know that this one is nearby and I feel confident enough in them from this past experience to feel like I'm in good hands if I do have to return.

I genuinely hope you never find yourself or someone you love needing care at St. Joseph Hospital…read more Our experience here has been absolutely appalling from beginning to end. Let's start with the facility itself. It is outdated, unappealing, and, more importantly, DIRTY. We have literally had to request that rooms be cleaned when there was BLOOD on the floor. In a hospital, of all places, basic cleanliness and sanitation should never be something a patient or family has to ask for. The lack of communication between physicians is equally disturbing. There appears to be no cohesive plan of care. One doctor adds a medication, another removes it, another adds three more, and meanwhile the patient and family are left trying to figure out what is happening and why. Communication with families is practically nonexistent. We witnessed a physician complete a procedure and immediately sprint out of the area without speaking to the family or answering questions. The surgical nurse was unable to answer even basic questions and repeatedly referred us back to the doctor--the same doctor who does not round, follow up, or make himself reasonably available to discuss the patient's care. Our experience with Dr. Sheinin in particular was terrible. Of all the physicians we encountered, our experience with him was by far the worst. His lack of communication, horrid bedside manner, and follow-up was completely unacceptable. If anyone in hospital administration or on the board reads these reviews, I sincerely hope you take a serious look at the concerns patients and families are raising about the care and communication they receive. And then there is the staff culture. Multiple nurses, across different departments, openly complained to the patient about being underpaid, frustrated with management, and unhappy working there. Whatever legitimate workplace concerns employees may have, an ill and vulnerable patient who is dependent on you for care should NOT be placed in the middle of them. When someone is hospitalized, their family is already scared, exhausted, and trying to advocate for them. They should not also have to chase doctors, coordinate communication between medical teams, request basic cleaning, and repeatedly beg for answers about the care being provided. This experience has completely destroyed my confidence in this hospital. I would never voluntarily bring myself or someone I love here again.

I have been going to this UCLA facility for a little over 8 years now. Thankfully, this office…read moreopened up close to my house, and I no longer have to drive all the way to Santa Monica City. I had a 3:15pm appointment with Dr. Mendoza, on the 10th of this month for my yearly physical. Got there 15 minutes early and Blanca at the front desk checked me in & Silvia checked me out. Both ladies were very nice, helpful, pleasant and polite. For a physical, they don't charge you. By the time I took a seat in their waiting area, which is very clean with complimentary water (hot and cold), my name was called by Christina. She took me to room #10 to do all my vitals. This lady is just AMAZING in every way on every level. She is the sweetest, soft spoken, kind, nice, helpful medical assistant that I know of. She has seen me twice before. Did her job and left. She is also very knowledgeable & compassionate. Next up is my primary doctor, Dr. Mendoza. He goes over my chart/records and highly suggested for me to take a Pneumonia shot addressing that people over 50 are highly recommended to do so, but NOT required. So the ball was in my court. I agreed to take that shot to prevent from other illnesses in the near future. Especially, when I suffered from Shingles not too long ago. Dr.Mendoza is good. He can be a bit more thorough, he is a bit too fast and quick. However, he does know his job pretty well. I wish one day he can address me by my name. Requested 6 different types of blood work and left the office. The entire visit overall took less than an hour. Blood work normally takes 24 to 48 hours for us to get our results. Dr. Mendoza replied/emailed in less than 24 hours. Thank you for that. Christina came back to give me the shot. She was so gentle that I didn't even feel the needle in my left arm. She even asked me if I am right handed or left. Based on my answer, she did what she was supposed to do. It's a 2-story building so I went back to the 2nd floor to get my labwork done. It was easy, breezy. Kenneth, that could have been a little bit more pleasant and slap a smile on his face was not that welcoming like Rosario is. Did his job and I left. Underground parking, very steep, watch the walls not to crash or hit the wall and other cars. 2 elevators working perfectly, and they accept most credit cards, most insurance plans/payments and that's all that I know. Bathrooms are available on both floors and overall the bathrooms and facility are very clean!! This building used to be some movie/celebrity building. They have so many of black and white photos of late celebrities. Too beautiful. Don't listen or read those negative, one or two star reviews. Negative people will always stay negative. Whatever that you do for them, it's never good enough. But they still keep going back to the same restaurants, stores, hospitals, cleaners, gas stations etc.. Blanca also gave me an appointment with Dr. Cheng on 7/24 at 3:40pm. Thank you all very much! Our health is in THEIR HANDS!

I even gave them the benefit of the doubt after my own experience and scheduled my husband there, and they did the exact same thing to him. At this point, something feels seriously off. I've already contacted UCLA and will also be reaching out to Anthem and the Medical Board because I think this practice deserves a closer look. I don't know what's going on, but this is not how a professional medical office should operate. The staff also seem disorganized and often don't appear to know what's going on. This is not the standard I expect from a practice affiliated with UCLA, and it's honestly embarrassing that they're associated with the UCLA name. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. I genuinely can't recommend this office.

I must say this Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center is ONE of the best hospitals/facilities In…read moreSFV!! I have been there numerous times to visit friends, neighbors, and a few family members. On the 20th of this month my son had a hernia surgery for the second time around at this hospital within 3 years apart. He has been here once before for the same procedure/surgery, but was seen by another doctor who had retired. My husband took him to the hospital around 8am and the check-in process was seamless, timeless, and effortless by the front desk. They took his vitals, signed some paperwork, and got to business. It was a laparoscopic surgery and anesthesia was required to give him 3 incisions to get where they needed to get into. The anesthesiologist did a flawless job and my son went to sleep within 60 seconds. They even played his favorite song by his favorite artist. Dr. Michael Robinson did a fantastic job by operating on him and my son speaks very highly of him, his work ethic, knowledge, professionalism, and kind demeanor. He was patient, pleasant, explained the pros & the cons and the rest is history. Nurses were constantly around my son making sure that he was doing well, taking good care of him by talking to him, and giving him solid food such as small sandwiches, chips, jello and vanilla pudding. In my opinion that is a lot of food for someone who had just had surgery. After the surgery, they took him to the recovery room and made sure that he was being supervised for 3 hours. They sent him home that same day, since it was an outpatient surgery with rules/instructions to follow, pain killers and wished him a safe & speedy recovery!! They have a cafeteria, vending machines, gift shop, plenty of parking spaces, lots of clean restrooms, including the surgery room. Hospital was SPOTLESS CLEAN!!! We would like to thank Dr. Michael Robinson, all the nurses, especially Suzanne & Minu for their caring, hospitable attitude, and last but not least St. Joseph Medical Hospital!! Thanks a BUNCH!

I know, because you can see everything from the waiting room which has no privacy for the patients behind glass walls. I had to wait 30 minutes so I saw a lot. They *reuse the same tourniquet* for every patient, without sanitizing it. The chair arms are never wiped down. The tray is never cleansed. Basically - nothing is cleansed between patients. This is a huge violation of the CDC. I'm not sure how they got clearance to operate, as any sort of inspection would have shut them down immediately. When they encourage you to get your blood drawn at their own facility because "Quest takes too long" - do not go here, it's too risky to your health.

I am basing this 5 star review specifically about Dr. Micky…read more We absolutely love her. Our 18 month old has been under her care since the day she was born. Dr. Micky is always attentive and patient. She answers all of our questions clearly and without hesitation (and trust me, we always have a lot). She makes us feel comfortable and gives the best advice (because duh, she a great doctor!) The metaphors she uses are not only understandable and in layman's terms but sometimes funny. Dr. Micky is also a black belt in two types of martial arts! That, to me, is such an inspiration because my daughter will know this and know she can be a badass too. Regarding the front office staff, they are super friendly and patient and always try their best to do right by us. Ok, now for the ONLY con - I will acknowledge that the switch to this new system is dog poop. I hate it. It's ghetto and really hard to get a hold of anyone.
