READ IF YOU ARE INSURED AND ARE TRYING TO GO ABOUT THIS VISIT THROUGH YOUR INSURANCE…read more I wish I can give the doctor 5 stars and my 2nd visit receptionist 0. 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.

I wish I could give it 0 stars but it requires to leave 1 star. I had one of the worst experiences…read moreI've ever had at this clinic. The staff member handling my appointment was extremely rude and unprofessional from the beginning. I had already provided a urine sample, but because it wasn't acceptable, I was told I needed to provide another one. What made me even more uncomfortable was being told that this time he would have to observe me while I did it. Throughout the appointment, the employee was wearing earphones and listening to music while speaking to me, which came across as very disrespectful and unprofessional. Instead of treating me with respect, he gave me an ultimatum: either stay in the office until I could provide another urine sample or be disqualified from my job opportunity. I arrived around 11:30 a.m. and was told that if I left before providing another sample, I would lose the position, and that I could stay there until they closed at 6:00 p.m. Expecting someone to remain at a clinic for over six hours waiting to urinate is unreasonable, especially when they have other responsibilities. I had another job I needed to get to and simply could not stay all day. Rather than trying to work with me or explain my options professionally, I felt pressured, intimidated, and treated without any compassion or respect. I hope management addresses the behavior of this employee and improves the professionalism and respect shown to future patients. No one should leave a medical office feeling as uncomfortable and disrespected as I did.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience at this office. I was referred here for treatment…read moreafter my injury, and instead of receiving professional medical care, I was met with repeated cancellations, poor communication, and complete disregard for my time. My appointments were canceled twice. I understand that emergencies happen, but what I cannot understand is why no one thought it was important to notify me properly. One day, I had already taken the day off work and was driving from Los Angeles to Anaheim when I found out my appointment had been canceled. I never received a phone call, text message, voicemail, or appointment confirmation. I lost an entire day of work because of their lack of communication. I was the one making phone calls, trying to confirm appointments, following up and treated as though my time and my recovery didn't matter. Even after multiple cancellations, no one reached out to reschedule. Every phone call was another disappointment. I kept hoping someone would take responsibility and make things right, but that never happened. As an injured patient, I expected compassion, professionalism, and basic respect. Instead, I experienced stress, uncertainty, lost income, and weeks of unnecessary delays in my medical care. I rarely leave negative reviews, but I genuinely feel other patients should know what my experience was like. I am deeply disappointed by how I was treated and cannot recommend this office. Patients deserve far better than this. Anastasia

After living with chronic pain for over a decade following a life-changing car accident, I've seen…read morecountless pain management specialists. None of them come close to the care I've received from Dr. Lipton and his incredible staff. He is truly in a league of his own--an expert in his field, but also one of the kindest and most compassionate doctors I've ever encountered. From the very first appointment, Dr. Lipton made me feel seen, heard, and genuinely cared for. He takes the time to listen--not just to symptoms, but to how the pain is affecting my daily life. His approach is always thoughtful and thorough, and he never makes you feel like just another patient on the schedule. I receive truly personalized care that's also incredibly personable. That rare combination of medical expertise and deep empathy has made such a difference in my life. Dr. Lipton's staff is equally wonderful--professional, warm, and always willing to help. The entire experience, from check-in to treatment, is handled with care and respect. It's clear that everyone in the office is there because they truly want to help people heal and live better lives. Living with chronic pain is a difficult journey, but finding a doctor like Dr. Lipton has been a true turning point for me. I finally feel like I have a team that's not just treating my pain, but supporting my quality of life in a meaningful way. I can't recommend Dr. Lipton and his staff highly enough--they are the gold standard in pain management care.

The facility itself is absolutely stunning, the rooms are spacious and comfortable, and being able to have my family there with me brought so much comfort during such a vulnerable time. Every single nurse, staff member, and provider who walked into my room treated me like family. As a nurse myself, I know firsthand how rare it is to encounter a team this exceptional. The level of compassion, professionalism, and attentiveness here is unmatched. My CRNA listened to every concern I had, and this was by far the best I have ever woken up from anesthesia -- minimal nausea, well-controlled pain, and genuine comfort throughout recovery. Honestly, it made me emotional because you could truly feel how much these people care about their patients. Going into spine surgery could have been such a frightening and nerve-racking experience, but this team turned it into something truly special. I will never forget the kindness and care every person showed me. Thank you all so much for taking such amazing care of me. You are all extraordinary.

I can't recommend Dr. Nguyen more! I first came here after my insurance changed it's payment rules…read moreand I got dumped by several of my doctors, including my pain management one. At first I was very upset, as you could imagine, but it turned out to be a good thing in leading me to University Spine & Pain and Dr. Nguyen. He is just so nice and really cares about his patients. And if you have any chronic health issues and have to deal with a lot of doctors, like I do, then you know that Doctors like this are few and far between. The office is small but easy to get to. When I saw it was in Hermosa beach I thought the drive would be a nightmare, but there is no traffic, it is easy peasy. The staff, like the Doctor, are really nice and go out of their way to work with you on scheduling. Rosa especially is a sweetheart. Dr. Nguyen is efficient and wants to work with you on what works to help get you or keep you out of pain. He takes what you think into consideration instead of just dismissing it. And like I said he is just beyond nice, his bedside manner is a 10/10. I found it hard to believe a doctor this great had so little reviews, but then I noticed a ton of hidden reviews at the bottom of the page. Yelp has a faulty algorithm that hides valid reviews quite often, If you google it, you will find a ton of stuff about it. So I usually ignore the "hidden" part and take all reviews and my own intuition into account when reading them, I think we all can tell a real review from a fake one, am I right? The rest of the reviews seemed to agree with my own experience at this office. In conclusion. This doc is amazing, I definitely recommend. He doesn't treat you like your are a cog in a money machine, and is understanding if you make a mistake or two. You would not regret coming to this office.
