If there's a patron saint of persistence, Dr. Matthew Herrmann surely wears the halo. When the…read morecalendar turned to April 2025, and my PSA numbers shot for the stars, my then-urologist responded with the empathy of a stone statue--he wouldn't listen, wouldn't review, and certainly wouldn't act. But Dr. Herrmann? He was a spark in a dark room, the kind of doctor who doesn't just treat symptoms, but stirs the soul. He didn't sugarcoat or sidestep; instead, he handed me the torch and insisted I light up the phone lines--call my urologist, my insurance company, anyone who would listen. Because of his relentless encouragement, I pushed through. That determination was the difference between silence and survival: I am here to tell you I beat stage four metastatic prostate cancer. Dr. Herrmann didn't simply nudge me toward health--he armed me with purpose. When other doctors ghosted my messages, Dr. Herrmann was the voice of reason and action, ordering the right tests, prioritizing protocols, and delivering the truth with clarity and care. He is the rare physician who isn't dazzled by the paycheck but by the opportunity to heal his patients. He is, in every sense, a hero--though he'd modestly shrug and say, "I'm just doing my job." Well, Dr. Herrmann, doing your job has meant saving my life. If you're lucky enough to cross paths with him, count yourself blessed. In a world short on heroes, he's the real deal--upright, compassionate, and quietly extraordinary. Thank you Doctor Herrmann. Anthony W. Johnson

Dr lehman reviewed my paperwork before we even met she had a game plan personalized to me based on what She could see I hadn't tried. She puts her neck on the line because she knows how deadly this disease can be and how desperate we are for help. She's gone out of her way even at night and on weekends. She knows we need to push these infections but also knows when to pull back. Healing chronic Lyme is a dance - a dance that she's willing to do with you. I'd sell my home to go live in a tent near Dr Lehmans office because that's how life saving she is. I don't think I've ever left a review like this but these types of doctors never get enough credit.

Avoid AHF -- A Disappointing and Unprofessional Experience…read more If you value your time, health, and respectful care, avoid AHF at all costs. I'm writing this review after taking several days to calm down and reflect so I can give an honest and fair assessment. My goal is to help future patients make an informed decision before trusting their healthcare to this organization. 1. Appointment Experience: No Empathy, No Flexibility I had an appointment with Dr. Josiah Strawser at AHF Westside HCC on Wilshire Blvd (Beverly Hills) at 8:40 AM. Despite leaving early from Orange County, I was delayed by heavy morning traffic and arrived approximately 35 minutes late. Upon arrival, the receptionist was polite and said she would try to fit me in or see if I could be seen after any cancellations. I patiently waited another 35 minutes in the lobby -- only to be told I would not be seen at all and had to reschedule. The office manager, Pedro, came out and coldly stated it was "company policy" that anyone more than 15 minutes late is automatically denied care, regardless of the circumstances. After driving 2.5 hours, I was turned away without even a brief consultation. This rigid and uncaring approach demonstrates zero compassion or understanding for patients. Healthcare should be about helping people, not hiding behind inflexible corporate policies. Ironically, AHF's mission claims to provide "care and respect for all." My experience proved the opposite. 2. Lack of Care and Respect for Patients Dr. Strawser's refusal to see me -- even for a short visit -- shows a lack of empathy and professionalism. Let's be honest: most patients aren't seen by their doctor exactly on time, and visits rarely last more than 5-10 minutes. The claim that there was "no time" to see me felt like a poor excuse. I left feeling like a number, not a patient. My health, time, and well-being were clearly not important to them. Sadly, I've also witnessed other patients -- especially those with lower income or on assistance programs -- being treated with similar disregard. Every patient, regardless of insurance type, deserves respect, dignity, and fair treatment. 3. Concerning Billing Practices This isn't my first negative experience with AHF. About six months ago, I had a telehealth appointment that was conducted by a nurse over the phone. However, my insurance statement later showed charges as if I had been seen by a doctor -- plus additional services I never received. It took multiple calls to get the billing corrected. This raises serious concerns about potential fraudulent billing practices that could affect other patients who might not even notice such discrepancies. 4. Poor Location and Parking On top of everything else, this location does not offer free parking. The parking garage charges $2 per 15 minutes, and by the end of a typical visit, you could easily pay $15-$28 just to park. It's an unreasonable cost and adds unnecessary frustration to an already poor experience.  Final Thoughts AHF has shown me that it prioritizes profit and policy over patient care. There was no flexibility, compassion, or accountability in how I was treated. If you want respectful treatment, quality care, and honest billing, look elsewhere. * If you have private insurance, seek care from an independent specialist or private practice. * If you rely on public healthcare, county clinics tend to have better oversight and accountability than AHF. AHF's lack of empathy, questionable billing, and dismissive attitude toward patients make it clear: this is not an organization that puts patients first.

It's like the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. I had a simple complaint about the lack of care I received from his new P.A. "R. F" when I spoke with Dr. Pardo on the phone he was very dismissive and condescending. He literally couldn't care less about the care his P.As under him were providing. It felt very much like it was all about the money and that substandard care was something he did not have time to be bothered with addressing. - Dan Mitchell

But she continued to lecture me about cancer screenings using fear tactics ("I knew a 25 year old who died from breast cancer bc she wasn't doing daily exams"). Mind you, I'm here literally for a cancer screening - so why are you trying to freak me out?? Next, the management. When I left, I said "do I need to schedule my follow up?" And the lady at the desk said no, your doctor scheduled it. You'll get a confirmation in your email. Never got any correspondence so I assumed no news is good news and forgot about it. Then I get the most unprofessional, goofy ahh text threatening me with a $250 no show fee. I was still able to take my telehealth call even though nobody told me about it, which makes this even crazier. I still had my appointment. There are so many clinics and better offices to be taken care of in LA. Just steer clear of this sh*t show.
