OVER BILLING: Kara their billing coordinator will not take responsibility for billing issues and…read morehas alienated me over $50 because she won't fix their issue with Aetna. Aetna pays NCFMG over $500/visit and each visit I paid my PCP copay of $20. Yet the billing went through as if I saw a specialist ($45 copay) and I only saw a PA, plus North Coast doesn't have specialist they only do Primary Care. This was all because the doctors were listed incorrectly on the bill sent to Aetna. So I called Kara a few times, and I called Aetna a few times and then I put them on a conference call together, and then I followed up with Aetna several times to make sure they were fixing the issue. So after about 4 hours of my time and Kara blaming Aenta and Aetna blaming her I had to give up. And I had a final call with Kara and said there is no way I am paying the $50 because this was billed wrong, just on principal I can't and won't pay it. I can't believe I am ending a 10 year relationship with NCFMG who gets paid $500+ every time I visit over $50 I was wrongly charged for, that is brilliant customer service and a fantastic business model. Note for NCFMG if you even read these reviews: PA Noel and PA Morrison are setup incorrectly with Aetna. They had 2 profiles, one with UCSD and one without. Aetna billing uses the one without which makes them unrecognized so they bill as a specialist. So why don't you call Aetna and fix it before you have more patients leave you over erroneous billing.

I hadn't seen my PCP, Dr. Amy Kakimoto, in over a decade, but I was so happy to find out she's…read morestill at North Coast Family Medical Group. Life happens, and I'd put off routine check-ups for far too long, but I recently decided to schedule an appointment for blood work and had a list of questions, along with a need for some advice and recommendations. Scheduling was a breeze. Their patient portal is user-friendly, and the response time was surprisingly quick. Despite my last-minute request, they managed to fit me in. In the past it would take me months to see my PCP. This was a big improvement. Everything, from lab work requests to accessing clinical notes and instructions is automated in their system, so there's no hassle. On the day of my appointment, I was pleased to find plenty of parking, even on a busy weekday afternoon, which is always a plus. The clinic looks amazing and they've clearly made major renovations. The space is bright, modern, open, and spotless, with an inviting atmosphere. The staff were professional, warm, and attentive. From the receptionists to the medical assistants, everyone made me feel welcomed. During my appointment, Dr. Kakimoto addressed all of my questions and concerns with patience and detail. Even though the visit lasted only about 30 minutes, I left feeling reassured, informed, and optimistic about my health. I also love the reminder texts and emails! So helpful especially when you have so much going on. All your clinical notes are available in their patient portal app for easy access as well as all your medical records, tests, and more. I highly recommend Dr. Amy Kakimoto and North Coast Family Medical Group to anyone looking for quality care.

I Do Not recommend Dr. Meyerhoff! Due to his horrible diagnosis of my best friend, she has died!…read moreIt's been 3 weeks since my dearest friend has passed away and I miss her so much! My friend had been telling him for at least a year that she was in pain and that her legs felt like mush. He ordered x-rays and blood tests. After getting the results back, Dr. Meyerhoff, if you can call him a doctor, sent my friend home with a diagnosis of vitamin A deficiency. When she went in to see him, she could hardly breath and could barely walk, and he still sent her home. She had to call 911 two days after her office visit with him and she never came home again. She entered the hospital on 9/11/24 and passed away 11/5/24. She was full of cancer!!!! He even had the nerve to say her lungs were clear, her lungs were full of cancer along with her liver!!!! I wish I could give him zero stars, he doesn't deserve any! I Do Not recommend Dr. Meyerhoff!

The next day I called Graybill to leave a message with Meyerhoff about the situation. No needs, just to let him know. I waited for over 45 minutes on hold before reaching a real person. Now, I don't know about anyone else, but when I call someone my "Personal Physician" I kind of expect that I should be able to get leave a message in a timely manner. Meyerhoff used to be that way. I could call and within minutes I would be speaking to a member of his staff. Not anymore. So Brian, this is goodbye. I'm off to find a doctor who was present on the day the his teachers addressed the "Patient/Doctor" relationship.
