Once they did I received confirmation that my insurance was accepted, in which case I asked to setup a consultation. They took my insurance information and said they'd call back by the end of the day. Since I hadn't heard from them I called back the following day, with the answering service taking the call again, and told them I hadn't heard back and was looking to see if I can get the appt scheduled. They apologized and said the would pass the message to the office and have someone call back shortly. No call back was done that day. When I attempted to call the following day, it said the number was not taking calls at that time (for those of you know or don't, this actually means that they blocked me!) I was pretty shocked to say the least. I tested it out by calling off a different number and it went through no problem. What kind of office runs this way? Who knows what will happen to the information I gave them. Stay far away from here, very unethical practice.

Since the age for colonoscopy was changed from 50 to 45 I've been dreading it. When I turned 45 I…read morewas dreading it. Then I turned 46 and figured I better get it over with. I was having some issues I won't get into plus family history that made me finally face the music. I'm writing this review to let you know if you're the age for a colonoscopy or soon to be the age, DO NOT STRESS OVER THIS!!!!!! THERE IS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT! From start to finish it was simple and honestly no big deal. I have a PPO and can go anywhere I want but my doctor referred me to Dr. Duke Nguyen since he's located in the same Memorial Care center he is. Figured easy enough. The staff at Orange County Digestive Care (located 3rd floor Memorial Care Building) was super friendly and always answered the phone quickly so I'd go back and recommend them. I made my appointment and they got me in the day after Xmas for my initial appointment which was a few days after I called. I met with Kimberly A. Pinckney, PA-C. She was so friendly I didn't hesitate to answer all the embarrassing questions about pooping habits. After talking about issues and answering questions I met with another lady who scheduled me for 3/7/24 and went over the prep. Initially I was happy it was 3 months to wait but I stressed really bad for 3 months. Again, DO NOT STRESS LIKE I DID! DO NOT STRESS! Fast forward 3 months. Week of your appointment I highly recommend eating low fiber foods and easy to digest bland foods. Stay away from beef, raw veggies, seeds, nuts, and high fiber stuff. Day before the appointment all you can have is clear liquid. I was surprised I didn't get hungry at all but I think my low calorie week of bland foods helped prepare my stomach. I also drank tons of water all day. Luckily my insurance paid for the split dose "suprep" which is two liquid 6 ounce bottles you mix with 16 ounces of water. 6pm night before my adventure started. My wife told me how horrible the prep tastes but I thought it tasted sort of like Tamarindo candy. Salty, sour, and sweet so I kind of liked it. I drank down the mixture followed by 32 ounces of water as instructed. 1.5 hours went by and I was questioning if my dosage was defective. Then for the next 3 to 4 hours my body turned into a what I can only describe as a fecal water cannon. What came out of me defied logic. The good thing is there's zero stomach aches or urgency. I assumed it was going to be like food poisoning but your body is just filling up with water and blasting your pipes clean. I had no issues getting to the bathroom, no running needed. Also you get breaks between visits so it's not non stop. I highly recommend you have wet wipes since you'll be wiping A LOT and cleaning supplies because you will utterly obliterate your toilet bowl. Next morning at 4am was round two. I didn't enjoy the flavor this time since I knew what was in store. Round two kicked in about 15 minutes. Since there was not much left it was just endless water blasting until I was sparkling clean. So yea..... going to the bathroom over and over and over gets tiring but just know you're not going to feel sick or anything. You're just going to be turned into a human water cannon and if you're like me texting jokes to your friends about it. They also time it and cut off your drinking time so you'll be fine when it's time to leave for your appointment. Day of the procedure WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Every single employee at Memorial Care were so friendly I was at ease the whole time and honestly ready to get it over with. I arrived, put on my bare assed gown, and got into bed. I've never had an IV before so was worried about that but it felt no different than getting my blood drawn so that was another example of stressing for nothing. Dr. Nguyen quickly went over what's going to happen, anesthesiologist gave his speech, and I was wheeled into the room. Literally it went like this: Propofol which looks like milk was injected into the tube going to my IV and the guy said "This might feel cold". I watched it hit my hand and I said "I don't feel anything.....". Next thing I know I hear "are you awake?" which I reply to "huh?". Then I'm told I'm done. It's over. It's like a light switch was flipped off and on and it was over. Crazy stuff. Dr. Nguyen then let me know he took out one polyp and the issue I went in for was nothing to worry about. Even got color photos of my innards to look at. Two weeks later I was told my polyp was not cancerous but because of the size of it I'll have to return in 5 years. Good thing is I know not to stress over it. This was easy. Get it done. You have nothing to worry about. I convinced my co-worker who was 5 years past due and he had his last week. He said it was easy too and we traded humorous toilet stories. GET YOUR COLONSCOPY DONE! DO NOT STRESS ABOUT IT! DO NOT WORRY ABOUT IT! IT'S AN EASY EXPERIENCE!

She really cares about her clients and is careful but extremely efficient. I started coming to Luxury Medical Spa about 3 months ago in preparation for my wedding. My main concerns were depressed acne scarring, active inflamed acne, enlarged pores and hyperpigmentation from different stages of scarring. I came in with low expectations keeping in mind that these kind of problems are very difficult to treat especially within a short time frame. I came once a month for 3 months and by the second time, I was already blown away by the improvement in my skin texture, overall smoothness and vibrancy!

The scars are smaller/filled up and some even gone. I'm so so happy with the results. Her assistant is nice, her office is clean, and she has lots of plants around the office.

A medical emergency is defined as "A medical emergency is a health condition or situation that…read moreneeds immediate medical attention." Immediate is defined as "occurring, acting, or accomplished without loss or interval of time." My wife's visit to the emergency room makes no sense to me. Her primary care physician's nurse told her to make an appointment with a doctor (with first available appointment in 4 days), or go to the ER. We chose the ER, but, not before sending me to the gym to exercise, so that she could fix her hair. I understand the ER has more equipment than doctor's office, and even urgent care. It seemed wrong to go to the ER when it was not an emergency. St. Jude ER was vastly different from the ER in Canada that we just visited, where it was a real emergency. We showed up at 5PM and registered. The triage nurse saw us almost immediately. We saw the doctor within an hour. The doctor followed up on the care that my wife received in Canada and ordered a CT scan and some bloodwork. Everyone that we interacted with was nice and professional. They all knew what their job was. I'll take this over universal healthcare in Canada any day where it took 6 hours just to be triaged! Even though we spent four hours at the ER, the time went by quickly because the the process here at St. Jude is just so much better. It was a good experience. I don't want or need to experience them any more. Hopefully, I will never come back.
