I was referred to Dr. Driver by a friend after I was diagnosed with RA. I did not believe the…read morediagnosis, so I sought a second opinion from her. My instincts were correct and Dr. driver stated I did not have a RA but extensive OA. Dr. driver was on time, took the time before meeting with me to review all of the medical records I had brought with me and then had a thorough meeting with me. She listened to me attentively, did a complete physical examination of me and then discussed my medical records, and my medical history before giving me her diagnosis and a plan. All of her staff are amazing, not just the front office, but also her MA Yvette. I have continued to see Dr. driver for my severe osteoarthritis. When I need to see her in person I can if I don't need to see her in person I can do a video appointment which is amazing and very productive for a busy professional like me.

He also indicated that it was the medical assistants fault for the unnecessary appointment and would do nothing to get us a refund because the money doesn't go to him.

It helps to come in with an open mind because he is far more than just a typical doctor. He opened my eyes to completely different ways of thinking about my health, my body, and the healing process as a whole. He does not take the generic surface level approach that so many western doctors seem to rely on. In my experience, he has done more for me in the last 6months than what generic western doctors have done over the past 30 years. The best way I can describe him is that he is like a doctor, a psychologist, psychotherapist and several other professionals all combined into one. He looks at the full picture, asks the right questions, and approaches things in a way that makes you feel like someone is finally paying attention and actually trying to get to the root of the issue instead of just putting a temporary bandaid on it. His office is also a reflection of that experience. It is tranquil, comfortable, and conveniently located right next to the freeway, which makes it easy to get to. I am very glad I was referred to him and I highly recommend him to anyone who feels stuck, dealing with an ongoing issue, cant pinpoint the cause of their symptoms, untreated by typical doctors, or like they need a different level of care and insight. I am definitely a lifetime client

My new employer charges an extra $50.00 a month for my insurance if I don't get a yearly physical, but their spin is I get a $50.00 discount every month for seeing a physician once a year. Within the last year, Dr. Chang has moved to a new location ( https://bit.ly/31vpBEP ) which is near the corner of La Paz and Moulton Parkway in Laguna Hills. The space is nice for a doctor office and it is reasonably close to my home. The reception desk ( https://bit.ly/2J7YCbU ) is just inside the entrance and waiting area has a decent amount of seating. Once you name is called, the first step is getting your vitals ( https://bit.ly/2qw3CRv ) taken before you are walked to examination room. First time I had an appointment with Dr. Chang was three years ago and most of his criticism had to do with me looking like a human version of the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. I managed to put on a few more pounds before I became disgusted with myself and lost over 80 pounds in about 6 months. I went for a physical exam because I was having some digestive distress and I guess I was due for a visit because it had been several years between examinations. Dr. Chang did listen and conducted a thorough physical which included the thrilling prostate exam. The first time he did this exam I was like "Oh, my God!" He replied, "I am just putting on the glove." On my most recent visit during the exam I moaned another doctor's name. Don't do that! "Who is Dr. Jones?" "You're the only one!" Some time in the future I will upgrade to the endoscopic examination which is more commonly known as a colonoscopy. For those not familiar with the procedure, you are put into a twilight sleep while a long, flexible tube with a tiny camera on the tip is inserted into your rectum. The camera is guided through your entire colon which basically makes you star of your own Discovery Channel special (I hope they get my good side). If Jacque Cousteau was still alive, I would definitely want him doing the narration: "Slowly, we are going up Rohlin's colon. Up ahead a steak he had in 1988." On my latest visit, I received a fist bump for the weight loss, but Dr. Chang did mention some sun damage on my head and reminded me my shiny head isn't a solar collector. We briefly discussed my diet (which is atrocious), but since I don't smoke, rarely have caffeine or alcohol and not really a fan of narcotics, I am allowing myself a vice. The lungs sound really good and my vitals are excellent for someone in my age group. Rohlinism: If you don't enjoy your vices, you should find some new ones! The only thing I messed up during this latest visit was forgetting to fast which meant I couldn't get my blood drawn ( https://bit.ly/32Id9CQ ) until the following Friday. The technician who took my blood did it right the first time and the whole procedure was over in less than five minutes. I don't have large veins, so it can be annoying at times because technicians from time to time miss my vein. I like Dr. Chang and his staff which is a good thing since I will be seeing them at least once a year for the foreseeable future!

Zero star if allowed - incredibly unprofessional experience from start to finish…read more I was referred to this office by my doctor, but I never even got the chance to see the doctor -- and frankly, after how I was treated, I wouldn't want to. From the moment I called to make the appointment, the front desk staff,Dean, was rude, short, and condescending. The tone he used to speak to me was unnecessarily dismissive, as if I were a burden for simply asking questions. He sent an email with forms and instructions, but none of the links worked. I arrived 5 minutes early, only to be turned away because I wasn't there 15 minutes early to fill out paperwork I never received. I wasn't late. I wasn't no-showing. I was on time -- and still denied care. No one took accountability or made any effort to resolve the situation. Just a cold, "we cannot see you," with zero empathy or professionalism. If this is how they handle new patients, I can't imagine what ongoing care would be like. Total waste of time and a deeply frustrating experience. Avoid if you can !
