Routine annual preventative physicals should be completely covered by insurance. They are charging…read moreme $97 for the "follow-up" 15 minute phone call where they told me my labs look fine. I also had to request for a copy of the lab results separately because they weren't provided to me, so technically, without attending this appointment or following up myself, I wouldn't know have even known my annual physical results. I never had to pay for physicals with other primary care providers, so getting this additional "medical visit" charge for reviewing my annual lab results just feels really unsavory. It feels like a double billing. Also I was charged a small amount for the labs from Quest Labs which is bizarre.

I'm giving this place 5 stars because of Dr. Walton and a second doctor I saw (sorry the name…read moreescapes me) -- best bedside manner from both doctors I've had in many years. I was a little less confident in the rest of the staff but I'm a new patient so I'm giving them another chance. Staff seemed a little harried sometimes and I was sometimes asked the same question twice while I waited for the doctor in the room they placed me in. I briefly wondered if the attendant who came in to check on me was some sort of intern -- I had to remind her of the fact that I hadn't seen the doctor yet even though she had assumed I had. Minutes later she came to ask me another question (as if I worked there and was supposed to know). Didn't give me the greatest confidence in this place, but then when I meet with the actual doctors I'm reassured. Wonderful doctors.

Title: Gatekeeping, Poor Hygiene, and Unsafe Medical Practices…read more I've been in the healthcare system for 35 years and have never seen a practice run as poorly as Dr. Ulin Sargeant's office (MIMPC) in Duarte. - Filthy Conditions: I was the first patient of the day, yet the bathroom was a disaster. Trash was overflowing and it clearly hadn't been cleaned from the night before. This is the same bathroom used for urine samples--unacceptable and unsanitary. - Impossible to Reach: They use "tech" and "telehealth" as a wall to avoid patients. My insurance approved a travel exception for my meds instantly, but I had to physically drive to the office THREE times because no one picks up the phone. I finally had to tell them I wasn't leaving until they signed it off so I could catch my flight the next morning. - Billing Over Care: It felt like every hurdle was just an excuse to force me into a billable follow-up. They are obsessed with telehealth and gatekeeping. - Medical Mismanagement: The doctor prescribed me heavy-duty heart surgery meds (Carvedilol) for simple high blood pressure. When I reported extreme fatigue and a dangerously low heart rate, she wouldn't listen. My new doctor at Cedars-Sinai was shocked and took me off them immediately. The staff is unfriendly, the office is dirty, and the system is designed to ignore you. Save yourself the headache and go elsewhere.

After years of searching for a physician that I could confide in and trust, a physician that would…read moreprovide me with the best medical care, I was led to Dr. Ulin Sargeant in Duarte. It's difficult leaving a doctor(s) that's been taking care of your medical needs for years, but there comes a time when one admits that they're not getting the care that need and it's time to move on, and I'm glad that I did. With Dr. Sargeant, I find her to be patient and attentive. She has never talked over me, she listens to my concerns and with her knowledge she analyzes the information I've provided to her to come up with the best plan of action, including referring me to other healthcare specialists when necessary. Dr. Sargeant has never rushed me; she patiently listens to my concerns. Dr. Sargeant is very knowledgeable, professional, intuitive, caring and patient. Each time I visit I leave with a smile on my face, knowing that I've had the best care possible, I call her my guru of healthcare!! Dr. Sargeant's office and restroom is always clean and in order. Dr. Sargeant''s support staff, Gabby, Jazzmine and Kathryn are top notch; kind, pleasant and engaging. They schedule appointments so that the wait time is maybe 10-15 minutes, and often times less, depending on scheduling. Dr. Sargeant is a rare jewel in these days and times. I appreciate her expertise and her dedication to patient care. I highly recommend Doctor Ulin Sargeant to anyone seeking a change in their medical journey! I can't say enough about how appreciative I am finding a doctor such as Dr. Sargeant!!

I can't say enough great things about Dr. Patel and my experience with testosterone pellet therapy…read more The insertion process was surprisingly easy--there was absolutely no pain during the procedure. It was a little uncomfortable for about a week afterward, but nothing difficult to manage, and after that I didn't even notice it was there. By the second week, I started seeing real improvements. My sleep dramatically improved, which was the first major change I noticed. Shortly after that, my libido returned--something I honestly thought was gone for good. I've also experienced a noticeable boost in energy and much clearer thinking, with the mental fog I used to struggle with significantly improving. Dr. Patel has been incredibly attentive and thorough throughout the entire process. She closely monitors my progress and makes sure every question or concern I have is addressed. I always feel heard, supported, and well cared for. Her nurse is also wonderful--so kind, attentive, and helpful, which makes every visit even more pleasant. The office environment itself deserves a mention too. It's incredibly welcoming and has such a peaceful, almost zen-like atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. Dr. Patel and her team are truly the best, and I'm so grateful for the positive impact this treatment has had on my health and quality of life.

She's helped me get to the bottom of several health issues and is always incredibly fast at seeing me if anything ever arises. Her dedication to helping the body with not only medicine if needed, but with mind body awareness is something I think is so important because she treats you specifically as to what you need for your entire well being. She and Estrella make you feel so seen and really ease your mind when you are going through stuff. I have always had medical anxiety and they put me at such ease....and of course seeing Violet the wonder dog helps too as dogs always help me stay calm and comforted! I never feel anxious when I go to Heart of Bodhi, between their concern and calm energy and the soothing atmosphere of the practice, I feel absolutely safe and relaxed. Dr. Patel really cares and is so thorough! I have autoimmune stuff and she has been such an integral part of my feeling healthier! I can't recommend her enough. I've seen so many doctors for various things in my life and can say without question that she is the first doctor who has been there for me and made me feel so incredibly seen and cared for. She doesn't cut corners or brush things off, she take you very seriously and helps you get to the bottom of whatever is going on with precision, care and a medical and wholistic approach that I appreciate beyond measure. She and Estrella and Violet are Incredible and I feel beyond blessed to have them in my corner!!
