I was given the number for Mike at Senior Caring Solutions through the hospice I was working with…read morefor my friend. He was awesome to work with. I was kind of overwhelmed with dealing with hospice to get my friend home from the hospital and trying to get her home ready. Mike sent Diane out early the day my friend was coming home. You couldn't ask for a more caring person than Diane. She helped me get my friend's house ready for her to come home. She had the house whipped in shape in no time. During the almost 4 weeks we had my friend at home, Diane would do everything and anything I asked of her. We had some really tough nights those first few weeks. She toughed them out right with me. Diane was very knowledgeable about taking care of a bed patient and was often mentioning concerns to the hospice staff before they mentioned them. I always felt like my friend was in the best hands when I was away. I would highly recommend Mike at Senior Care Solutions and his staff.

***please note: I am re-posting this review because Yelp's filter unfairly hid my review,…read moreapparently thinking that it was bogus. I can assure you I am not related to the doctor, he's not my friend, and I have nothing to do with his business! I put a lot of time and thought into this review, and I only did it to tell the truth.*** I could not disagree more with the firsrt reviewer. I think Dr. Rathbun is outstanding. Dr. Rathbun has been my family's physician for half a decade now, and I have nothing but good things to say. Dr. Rathbun has a quiet and gentle manner that puts children (and nervous adults) at ease. He is never pompous, abrupt, or condescending, which are traits one unfortunately sees sometimes in doctors who graduate from the best medical schools (Dr. R went to UCSD). Instead, he is patient, courteous, and calm, and appears genuinely concerned about his patients' well-being. In my experience, he approaches the patient's concerns with the seriousness appropriate to the occasion, but is never without a genuine smile and a bit of humor to lighten the mood. The first reviewer said that Dr. Rathbun rashly blurted out to her mother that she "may have cancer when there was nothing to indicate this." I mean no disrespect to that reviewer, but I find that very hard to believe; it just doesn't square at all with my experience. Here's an example: in infancy, my daughter experienced a series of unexplained ilnesses and multiple bouts of pneumonia. People started throwing around the "C" word, so when I approached Dr. Rathbun about an underlying cause, I was really scared. (Dr. Rathbun had already suggested we consider a more comprehensive approach to find out what was going on.) Dr. Rathbun was not alarmist at all. He calmly listened to my concerns, reviewed my daughter's medical history, then helped me formulate a plan for invesitgation and eventual diagnosis. Happily, it turned out she does not have cancer, but a condition that more or less resolves itself by adulthood and can be managed in the meantime with proper prevention. Throughout the diagnostic process, Dr. Rathbun was always available with a calm, practical, and reassuring response to the changing information. Here's another: a while ago, I began experiencing pressure and pain that started to interfere with my ability to run and carry the kids. Being a lifelong runner and a mother, I was worried. Of course when I finally went to see Dr. Rathbun, I was worried about the big C. As always, Dr. Rathbun calmly and patiently listened to my symptoms, asked pertinent questions, conducted a thorough exam, and then devised a plan of testing and diagnosis, starting with the simplest and most obvious and working up from there. Never once did he say, "Oh, my God, I think you have cancer!" or anything so ridiculous. He must have read that fear on my face, though, because at the close of the visit, he said with a smile, "And no, I don't think it's cancer. Nothing in your symptoms or your exam suggests that." Finally, even my husband, who HATES going to the doctor and avoids it until a body part is falling off, likes Dr. Rathbun. He was a little leery before his first visit; he said, "Isn't he a baby doctor?" But after Dr. Rathbun helped resolve a long-standing elbow problem that had plagued him for months and interfered with his push-ups, he agreed that Dr. Rathbun is pretty great. In short, in my opinion Dr. Rathbun is an excellent pediatrician and family practitioner, and I would highly recommend him.

I cannot say enough good things about California Healthcare and Hospice. From the very beginning,…read moretheir team showed incredible compassion, professionalism, and genuine care--not just for the patient, but for the entire family. The staff is attentive, responsive, and truly goes above and beyond. Communication was clear and timely, and every question or concern was handled with patience and respect. You can tell this is a team that truly loves what they do and takes pride in providing dignified, high-quality care during some of life's most difficult moments. What really stood out was how personal the care felt. Nothing ever felt rushed or transactional. The team took the time to listen, educate, and support us every step of the way, which brought so much peace and reassurance. I know that some people will be hesitant of smaller companies they haven't heard of but honestly that was what made them so much better, they were really patient focused unlike some bigger companies where patients can fall into being just a number. If you are looking for a hospice agency that treats patients with dignity, families with kindness, and delivers exceptional care, I highly recommend California Healthcare and Hospice. They truly make a difference!

He is fantastic at hearing his patients and really taking the time to get to know them. He has always spent a lot of time with me, so I haven't experienced the rush that other patients have. He's careful to prescribe the right course of treatment for the individual. For example, he has had cultures run by nearby labs to ensure that he assigns an appropriate and effective antibiotic instead of just defaulting to a generic, powerful antibiotic. This is responsible and careful medicine at it's best. Most importantly to me, Dr. D offers his patients a mind, body, spirit approach. He knows that all things are connected and helps to coach people to health rather than lure them back for more medicine. He's provided me with the courage and tools to take on difficult lifestyle changes without making me feel judged. He looks at the long-term solution for his patients, not just a quick fix.
