I find Dr. Chambi an excellent and truly caring doctor as compared to other doctors I've had over the years. She is very knowledgeable and takes time to explain the science behind my health problem(s) which, as a scientist myself, I always request explanations. I'm glad I've decided to make her my primary doctor! Prof. Maurice Muller. read more

I was asked to complete a state-required form--something every medical office should be familiar with. I faxed it over immediately and called every week for an entire month, yet not a single staff member seemed to know what the form was or how to handle it. After weeks of being told nothing helpful, I was suddenly informed that I needed to come into the office in person--putting us at unnecessary risk after following their instructions. When I arrived, I was told the wait time for a simple doctor's signature was over two hours. The lack of knowledge, communication, and accountability is unacceptable. This level of disorganization is extremely concerning, especially for a healthcare office responsible for important state documentation. I strongly advise people to be careful when dealing with this office. read more

Dr Chambi is very thorough. It seems she cares for her patients. But be prepared to wait longer than expected appointment time. Took us an hour and half before going in to be seen. The staff is kind and considerate, courteous. read more

It was my first time here today, and while I'm not sure why the reviews are the way they are, I can definitely say my experience was great! I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Chambi, and she was thorough, attentive, kind, and really took the time to listen to my concerns and help me work through everything. A big thank you for your care! The medical assistant was also so sweet and funny. The front desk staff could be a bit friendlier and less rude, but overall, my experience was positive. Only thing was their old school with no AC just an fyi. read more

Mirna R Chambi, MD - Front entrance - Doctors Near Me - Buena Park, California

I recently visited my Primary Care Physician's clinic and overall had a good experience. I scheduled my appointment over the phone, and during my initial visit the whole process took about an hour or two. There were quite a few forms to fill out, followed by some waiting time for the assessment. I was eventually seen by NP Cordero, who recommended blood work--which was conveniently done right inside the clinic. During my follow-up visit, NP Reyes went over my lab results with me and clearly explained what they meant. They also prescribed the necessary medication. The follow-up visit was much more efficient and smooth compared to the initial one. Overall, I understand the longer wait during the first visit since there's more paperwork and assessments involved. The follow-up appointments, however, were quick and well-organized. read more

This doctor is very rude and doesn't not listen to your concerns. She rushes you out but it takes HOURS to be seen even though you have an appointment. It's ridiculous, had my appointment when they opened but I'm not being seen after 11am. The CNAs/Receptionist are always very rude. read more

My appointment was for 3:30pm the NP not even the Dr finally came in at 4:53pm saw her for 5 minutes i told him about a rash she has had and he didnt even bother to look at it they had the ac turned off and it was so hot n muggy in there that i almost passed out due to my heart condition I asked for water and even that wasnt cold we had only one person signed in front of us yet 4 other people got seen before us and we were last I would never suggest this place and not to mention all the mistakes the front office made with my daughter's ins coverage less than a star read more

Do not go here. The front office workers are horrible!! Had to call many times on behalf of my grandmother and each time they are rude to me. Called today and they hung up on me. I was calling about a referral because we have been waiting for 2 weeks. Poor customer service and very unprofessional. read more

Definitely don't recommend coming here they overbook every time making you wait HOURS to be put in a room and to be seen just for the doctor to go over the results quickly the main doctor is never there you always have to see her assistant the lady in the front Mirna is extremely rude speaks very harsh and rudely to the patients making patients feel dumb for not understanding things laughs at you for not understanding while I waited to be seen I heard her screaming at patients multiple times I'm very glad I switched primary doctor staff in the back and front receptionist are nice just that lady very very very rude please for your own good I definitely do not recommend coming here. read more

Office staff are horrible they do not answer or let you be on hold for so long without you even agreeing to be placed on hold. rude staff i wont ever come here read more

Receptionist are rude and unprofessional. I checked reviews prior to coming here and all reviews are bad bit I wanted to give them the benefitof doubt. I asked for more information on a doctor and one of the girls said "you can Google it" I definitely called insurance and changed to a different doctor. read more

Went here to speak to Dr. The whole place definitely needs an update when you walk in, and a thorough cleaning. The disturbing part was walking through and seeing paper charts literally EVERYWHERE! Even on the floor as you're walking through the very small office you have to step over boxes of files. Not an ideal place for care I would say. read more

My 2 year old son got transferred here from his 1st doctor. The receptionist was very pleasant. No AC so that sucked. It did take a very long time though. Once we were in, the nurse was very very kind and gentle with my son. The doctor was very helpful and knowledgable. My son had to get blood drawn and the 2 nurses that attended him were very patient. Other than being 90 in there abs a long wait time, everything else was perfect. read more

NEGATIVE 5 STARS!!! Terrible staff but worst of all, TERRIBLE Doctor!!! Called several dr's offices regarding the completion of a physical exam and vaccines for Immigration purposes. The staff at Mirna Chambi's office stated that the process would only take about 10 days to complete the packet. They gave us the soonest processing time frame out of all the other offices, so we opted to work with this office and immediately did everything they requested and paid in cash several hundred dollars. Let me tell you, this is by far the worst decision we could've made. Unfortunately, 10 days turned into 90+ days of waiting and a declined immigration application!!! Not only is the staff unfriendly, they are completely unprofessional. They hang up on you and refuse to provide any information. They've also "misplaced" documents and stated they never received them. I'm appalled with how many HIPPA violations I noticed while in the office. We were finally told that Claudia would be the only one providing any info regarding the packet, we waited and waited only to continue to get the run around and no packet to provide to immigration. We had to file for an extension with the immigration dept and informed Claudia of the new due date, that extension ended up expiring and still no packet. Requested a second extension and notified Claudia of the final deadline. Our final extension was days from expiring and Claudia assured us that everything would be okay and that immigration would not have a problem with the delay, since she would be writing us a letter taking full responsibility. Finally got a call from Claudia stating the documents were ready for pickup... which ended up being over a week past the final extensions expiration due date. Mailed the packet to immigration only to have it get declined and received a letter resulting in deportation as a result of the delayed packet. The letter Claudia provided taking full responsibility was worthless. At this point we finally decided to consult with an attorney in order to file an appeal. Attorney requested a new packet signed by Dr Mirna Chambi. Called the office and informed them of the issue. Arrived at Mirna Chambi's office only to have Claudia act completely clueless as usual and be utterly disrespectful and rude. Claudia is by far one of the most incompetent people we have even had to deal with. Not only did she have us going in circles, but she basically ended up blaming us for the delay. (I guess she forgot about the letter she provided taking full responsibility.) Here's the most disturbing part though, finally sat down with Mirna Chambi after requesting to speak to her, only to get talked over and be completely belittled by her. She didn't allow a word in and refused to sign anything and stated that it wasn't her responsibility or concern. Got up from her desk, and laughed at us as she walked out of her office. Shocked, disappointed and disgusted to say the least!!! One thing is to have such a lazy unknowledgeable staff, but to have such an unprofessional Dr is absolutely unacceptable! Please stay away from this place. No one should be treated this poorly, it truly is inexcusable. After reading all the AWEFUL REVIEWS and having such a rotten experience, I honestly have no idea why this office is still open for buisness. Mirna Chambi doesn't deserve the title, Doctor and much less USCIS Civil Surgeon and should be held accountable. I can only imagine how many other immigrants this office has taken advantage of. read more

They just make the appointment to repeat the same thing over make me wait for two hours for nothing

NP Cordero helped me and entertained me very well. A very good and kind person. God bless you always!

Not sure why all the negative reviews about the front office ladies. Maria has been helping me with a referral and she has been so wonderful and I have nothing bad to say about the staff and their services. I only saw Dr Chambi for a referral so I can't speak to anything else, but she was very thorough and incredibly helpful in explaining my insurance/options available. Sure the office can do with an update but whatever... I was impressed with how helpful they were so I can oversee that! As far as the wait goes, I waited maybe 30 min and had an appointment, which is pretty normal as far as doctor visits go :) I believe they take walk in's so it's best to make an appointment ahead of time. Thank you guys! read more

The front desk ladies are unprofessional and I waited over an hour to be seen by a doctor for my appointment. I would not recommend this office to anyone seeking medical attention. read more

My appointment was canceled without any notice. I only found out about it when I actually arrived at their office after a long drive. It was Monday, and they rescheduled my appointment one week after that. What a waste of time. I will not come back. read more

It is ridonkulous how long you have to wait to be seen by the doctor even with an appointment. I've waited 3 hours to be seen both times I've been here :( However, Doctor Chambi is kind and caring. She asks for bloodwork before just blindly prescribing you medication which I think is important. read more

I brought my 2 year old son here for a check-up after our insurance switched. After a long wait, he was seen by a nurse (never did meet Dr. Chambi) who conducted a VERY brief exam without asking any questions about his health history. It seemed as if they could not care less about him or his health. I asked about his height and weight percentiles and was told "he's fine." I explained that I could not find his immunization record and knew without it he couldn't get his vaccines. They made me feel like I was the worst mother ever for not having it. They said that they would access his records from his old pediatrician and that we could come back in a week when they had the records. I scheduled an appointment and came back a week later just to get the vaccines. When we showed up for the appointment, we waited an hour and a half in the stuffy, hot office just to be told that they never accessed his health records and still couldn't give him the shots. They couldn't have told me that when I arrived? Or when they called the day before to confirm the appointment? What a waste. I would never trust this place with my son's health. read more

Np ash cordero did a great job. His very detailed and answer all of my question. Staff are nice as wellz

Worst place ever don't go there unless you want to loose 5 hours in the waiting room n additional 2 hrs once they call u in

The Services that i Received from NP.Mr.Cordero is Excellent i am Properly informed about my health and care very detailed.the staff and Lily the Front desk are very friendly.NP Cordero did a great job with my 1st health exam visit. read more

0 Rating !! DO NOT COME HERE FOR ANY REASON! Spent 2 1/2 hours here, after calling and making sure we'd be able to get a referral to an orthopedic surgeon for my husbands broken hand. Doctor accused my husband of being a drug addict, because he needed pain medicine for his BROKEN HAND! She said she didn't have the pad of paper to write prescriptions. Um, really ?! Receptionists were rude, and frankly miserable looking in general. We walked out withOUT a referral, after all that time! Disgusting, this place should be closed down, it's nasty and they have not a clue of how to run a business, I'd hate if my life depended on these people read more

Wait times are the worst, why even bother making appts when the Dr or nurse is NEVER on time? Of the multiple times we've been here for appts it's always at least an hour after the scheduled appointment time before we're actually seen. One time it was over two hours after scheduled time despite us arriving 15min early. What a joke and a waste of patients time, absolutely no consideration. read more

Worst place to go when your sick. I had my baby with me. I had an appointment at 9am, I got to go in 11am and again once I am in had to wait another hour to see the doctor. We ended leaving the place after waiting 4 hours and not a sorry. There is never a a doctor; can you believe me my family doctor is Dr. Chambi and for 2 years we thought some nurse in that clinic was Dr. Chambi. That means we were never treated by Dr. Chambi; the whole time it was nurse practitioner. They didn't bother to correct us when we kept calling the NURSE the doctor chambi. You will never see doctor Chambi. Worst place. Can not wait to change my doctor. Only if I knew how to complain about them to higher authority. Nurse are so rude that you would wanna think ten times before you ask them anything. I wanna see Dr. Chambi once in my life that's all I wanted; to see my family doctor's face. read more

This place is the worse place ever , thank you Medi-cal! The receptionists are rude, they're always in a bad mood. Even if you're early to your appointment you still wait about 1-2 hours in the waiting room. When they finally call you , you wait another 45 minutes to an hour in the room. When the doctor finally comes in she sees you for like 4 minutes and BAMN ! She's gone! She laughs when you tell her what symptoms you have and what you think you have and tells you some BS to fix it . The waiting room is old and beat up the rooms are also the same . It's just an old gross place overall . Definitely calling my insurance to switch doctors . read more

One of the worst experiences I've ever had going to the doctor. Waited over an hour in the hot gross waiting room and ended up leaving. I even had an appointment. Would not recommend to anyone read more

Worst wait times. Every visit I've had to wait 1.5-2 hours. Do not come here. I'm sitting in the office right now and I want to kill myself Another visit, same horrible wait times. Dr chambi moves like a sloth. I ordered medical records which I told would take a week to be ready. When I came to pick it up in the morning, it took them more than 2 hours to tell me that they couldn't get it ready in time. I notified them early on that I was scheduled for a flight for a job interview in Texas. I ended up paying 100 dollars extra to rebook my flight for a guaranteed seat because I missed my flight. Instead of telling me early on that they couldn't do it, they kept telling me it would be ready in 30 mins for sure. I come back an hour later and they tell me to just wait a little longer about 3-4 more times. By this time it was already too late. I had to have my dad come and get my medical records because they said it would be ready a couple hours later, and they still made him wait. At this point I wouldn't be surprised if they lagged on purpose. They are all incompetent, but I guess you can't really expect much from someone who is working at such a lowly "medical" facility. read more

Worst Dr's office ever. The Dr herself is maybe 2 stars but everyone else - idiots and lazy. One of her assistance asked me if I had ever seen a Dr before. Like ever? Well I've had baby and I didn't deliver her in my living room. Wait time is horrible and they do not care about you whatsoever. Guess I should've checked yelp before scheduling an appointment. read more

First time visit. I didn't have to wait long at all. My experience was worse. I went to see Dr. Chambi who I now realize is a woman after reading the reviews. I've been being seen by a man who I thought was Dr. Chambi. I went there complaining of weakness and difficulty breathing. Thought it was my asthma. So he prescribed me an inhaler and said I would get a referral for a chest x-ray and to go get some blood work drawn. After 2 days on the phone I got absolutely nowhere regarding my chest xray. The girls at the counter didn't follow through as they said they would. It gets worse I got my blood work done on the 14th of June. My follow up appointment was July first. I get there on July 1st and the doctor asks me do you still feel week? I said yes. He leaves the room a nurse comes back in does this prick to my finger for blood and leaves. Doctor comes back in says your hemoglobin should be 13 and your test results came back a 6 but today your an 8 but you need to go to the emergency room for a possible blood transfusion. He writes on a prescription pad hemoglobin read on the 16th a 6 today July 1st it reads 8 possible blood transfusion. I ended up getting admitted for 2 days for a blood transfusion and a pint of iron. Tell me from the 16th until the 1st he didn't feel it was necessary to contact me. A hemoglobin of 6 is life threatening. The emergency doctor was shocked he said why did he wait so long to send you in? Your lucky you are still standing. I can not believe the the lack o following through that office has shown me. He should have looked at my results and contacted me immediately. I could barely walk from room to room those 2 weeks. I just kept using my inhaler and breathing machine for asthma. I think that's what kept me going. It was aweful. I was very scared at times because I was so weak and out of breath constantly. I will not put my life in their hands ever again . HE needs to get a new staff also. They were the worst. read more

Avoid this office like the plague. I have taken my twins here 3 times and have yet to see a Dr. Chambi. Does this person even exist? The third appointment was a simple scheduled recheck to show that my twins rashes were gone. Why they would even schedule a recheck for a rash is beyond me. Their last pediatrician would prescribe meds and say to bring them back only if it doesn't clear up or worsens. We waited in the lobby for an hour with tired, hungry, and fussy toddlers. They finally got us in a room after my husband said something only for us to sit another 45min. Their equipment is outdated and they can't even take accurate weights or heights for babies and toddlers. We finally had to walk out. When I let the front desk know all they could say was ok. They were even taking walk ins while people with appointments waited. Ridiculous! read more

Dont come here at all, find a better one. The staff here are rude as hell and the wait worse than the dmv i had work at 11 and decided to get an appointment at 9 had to wait till 10 to be called it n once they call you in you might think you're almost done but the wait inside is worse they make you sit in a room for the longest time and when you try to ask them how much longer is it gonna take they tell you with the rudest attitude to go back in and wait i almost lost my job cuz of this place last time they made me wait for 4 hours, i litterally took a nap in those beds that they have in the room but it was fine because i had no errands to run on that day but second time it was a matter of my work. I would never go back! read more

Worst experience! We were there for 3 hours. The staff kept speaking Spanish in front of me after I asked them to please stop because I didn't understand them. They tortured my toddler when giving him his shots, he was terrified! They were rough and careless & they didn't even correctly sign the shot record document so I have to go back tomorrow... They even gave him the wrong diagnosis and prescription for an infection he had... I rushed to a different doctor afterwards to get a second opinion because I was so scared of what they could have possibly done to him, and thankfully I did! I left that office angry, frustrated and crying once I got to my car... never take your family here! I am filing a complaint with the medical board because she has no business practicing medicine! read more

This office is an absolute joke. If you have an entire day to spend in an office then this place is for you. It's old, dirty and hot! If I could give less than 1 star I would. read more

This place is seriously the worst. I had to wait more that one week to make an appointment. My appointment time was 1:45pm, I got there early and was still seen until around 3:30 pm. I waited 2 hours!! and then to top it off an extra hour in a room waiting for the doctor. The place is old and crowded, the staff is unprepared and unprofessional. When the doctor finally got there she seemed rushed and didn't pay attention to my needs. I wish I had read the reviews of this place before coming here and wasting my time. read more

One of the worst place I have been to I went today for my appointment. And what got me mad is how the heck do you give you're patients the wrong shot record not 1 but I received to different shot records to people I didn't know I wish I would of read the comments before on here and I will no longer come back get you're shit together especially you're nurses please it makes everything holder on the patients. read more

Normally I don't like to leave reviews for any reason cuz everyone has different experiences cuz they have different days! But dang this clinic takes the cake! The people working here are racist cuz they do give you an appointment but when you arrive on time, they make you wait an hour and half outside in the waiting area, and then about an hour more when they put you in a room! What do they do meanwhile you are sitting and waiting for them you ask? They are seeing their Hispanic patients first and making sure they leave on time (which are a lot I guess cuz if you spend average of 10 minutes with me for all the details and next appointment, then that means that's average you are supposed to be with every patient you see‍). Lastly I would give this clinic a zero star cuz even after waiting for so long, you get a clueless nurse Practitioner who looks at her nurse assistant for validation when you tell her about a disease you have‍on top Dr.Chambi expects you to come visit her every month just so she can keep wasting your time cuz she is getting paid even though she doesn't see you personally, it's her staff!‍ read more
