Just like I'm petrified of going to the Dentist, going to the Doctor is equally as scary for me…read more I've been avoiding my "annual" medical checkup for 10 years. My wife has been on my ASS for five plus years about getting my butt in to see a Doc. Recently I have run out of excuses and my wife made an appointment for me. I didn't have a regular doctor so my wife did her research and thought Dr. Chen would be the one for me. He is Board Certified which I don't know what exactly that means, but supposedly it's a good thing. He is accepting new patients which at the time of the appointment was a bad thing. His office is close by our house which again is a good thing. Wait time in the lobby is kept to a minimum....if you stop and think about it, this can be a bad thing. He completed his undergrad at Brown which is the same school as my sister in-law, good thing? So how was my first visit? It was painless and strangely enjoyable. It turns out we had many common interests and has a broad knowledge beyond just the medical world. Excellent Doctor and would not hesitate recommending him to anyone who has been procrastinating a check up.

He is quite responsive to emails and extremely attentive during office visits. No medical system is perfect but quality is measured by people not systems, and Doctor Chen is a great example of what personal care should be.

My work insurance changed and I've recently switched to Kaiser. My experience so far with Kaiser…read morehas made me realize how poorly I was served by Stanford Family Practice. First thing you need to know--it will take months--yes, literally months--to get an appointment. When I reacted in disbelief, I was told unapologetically "Stanford in a teaching facility our doctors are only in a couple of days a week". Seeing patients is not the priority of this center. Second thing to know--you will get mysteriously charged additional copays months after your appointment. It turns out that the doctors do not charge copay by appointment, but by "topic". When I questioned the additional copay, I was told I must have asked the doctor a question unrelated to what my appointment was schedule for so each additional question can be charged a separate copay. Are you kidding me? Finally, and most importantly, again Standford is a teaching hospital--if you require surgery, or treatment, I highly advise that you ask that the interns/students do not work on you. I did not, and I physically paid dearly for it!!

First, I want to correct something another reviewer said. He said it takes months to get an…read moreappointment. In the fifteen years I've been going there, I've almost always gotten an appointment within a week. Even better is that they recently started offering same-day appointments. You only have to make an appointment if there's one specific doctor you Just call first thing in the morning and you'll likely get in that day. Both Dr. Richard Lee (who sadly is no longer there) and now Dr. Crump have given me first-class treatment. I've always been treated well there. When was very open to alternative therapy for getting my blood pressure down. Thanks to his guidance and openness, I'm now off my hypertension medication completely! But the appointment that stood out most for me was when I fell and was in insane amounts of ankle pain. Dr. Crump examined it and said that it was at worst a hairline fracture. I asked if he should x-ray it. His response put a smile on my face. He said, "We could do an x-ray, but the treatment would be the same." In today's broken fee-for-service medical industry, it was refreshing to have a doctor who wasn't suggesting unnecessary procedures to get paid more by insurance companies. In short, I've always gotten first-class treatment from Stanford Family Practice and will be going there as long as possible.

DON'T come here unless you enjoy being ripped off…read more I was feeling a little week/had a sore throat and wanted to check in with my PCP, who wasn't available so I met with a Minnie Vo (PA). That being said, the visit was less than 15minutes to which she said "it could be COVID, it could be just a cold." All she did was check my throat and blood pressure. When I was checking out, they said I didn't owe anything for the visit. Today, a month later, I got hit with a $550+ bill visit..and I'm insured! I find it extremely inappropriate that I got charged for a regular visit/check up. Do not recommend going here, you're better off going somewhere else or researching it online, as that was basically her recommendation for me - COVID vs a cold is VERY different. Will not be back here, and strongly considering closing my account with one medical, and reporting this.

I highly recommend Dr. Tediana Torrens at Peninsula Integrative Medicine in Palo Alto. Dr. Torrens…read moreis patient, thoughtful, and truly listens. She offers practical suggestions that actually work, and she takes the time to look for the root cause rather than just treating symptoms. I had been dealing with an illness for 10 years that traditional Western medicine specialists had not been able to solve. Dr. Torrens was relentless in trying to figure it out and she did! I have not felt this good in years! What I appreciate most is that she understands there is a place for both functional medicine and traditional Western medicine. She usually recommends a functional, natural-first approach, but when she sees an issue that needs to be addressed more quickly, she is not afraid to integrate conventional medicine in the treatment plan. When she does so, she will include natural remedies to help with side effects and to support the body during treatment. In my experience, functional medicine can sometimes look at the body through a wider lens, including specialty testing and approaches that may reveal patterns not always captured by standard medical testing. Dr. Torrens brings all of that together with patience, intelligence, and persistence. There is room in everyone's medical care for both traditional Western medicine and functional medicine. When used together, they can be incredibly powerful. Dr. Torrens is an excellent example of that.

You can tell how much thought and care he puts into every decision, and that he clearly went into this field to help people. I feel incredibly grateful to be his patient. If you are able to get in with Dr. Wong, you are extremely lucky. Our health is everything, and I've seen friends and family suffer devastating consequences when serious issues were missed by other providers. With Dr. Wong, I never have that fear. He is patient, meticulous, and incredibly cautious -- always dotting his i's and crossing his t's, doing everything by the book; nothing is overlooked. He asks all the right questions, is deeply attentive, and I trust him completely with my health. I wish everyone could have Dr. Wong as their PCP!

After her pregnancy she eventually entered an inpatient addiction treatment program, where the MD stated that the ramp of opiates Dr. Toig had prescribed would have created an addiction in anyone and it was as if it was intentional. I then discovered a friend of mine had also seen Dr. Toig, and I will relay the facts of her encounter. Dr. Toig had performed a surgery to improve her fertility but erroneously left gauze inside of her, unfortunately rendering her infertile. Dr. Toig's office promised to somehow make this right, but was slow to act until they ceased corresponding entirely. My friend and her husband then decided to pursue a malpractice suit but legal counsel advised them that the statute of limitations had passed, coincident with when Dr. Toig's office stopped corresponding. I'm giving a 1-star review because my experiences were about as bad as can be.

Dr. Gina is a medical doctor who performs as a doctor should, helping with diagnosis, treatments, prescriptions, recommendations etc, but her help presents in a form that is far more wholistic, empowering, and human than that of most medical professionals. I highly recommend Dr. Gina Serraiocco.
