Do not have enough words for all the positive regarding this Doctor obviously at my age, I've had a lot of medical appointments seen many doctors and he is literally top-notch. I am so grateful for him. He is so professional yet so kind. He is not yet jaded treating me his patient as a number. But rather as a person with a very scary heart episode that happened. He not only explained things thoroughly so I can understand them completely but again. He's compassionate detailed with his explanation. And I left his office was not only gratitude but also a 1000% confidence.If I do need surgery in the future i'm above and beyond blessed and lucky to have him as my docto He was on time he spent plenty of time with me and I truly feel like he listened to every word. I said and again was so compassionate. When explained things to me so I could truly understunlike the majordan of doctors today. If you're lucky you have 510 minutes with them, and on top of that, don't feel like they really give a Dang, one way or the other, but I can assure you this Doctor this cardiologist is the 1 to go to, should you have any need for heart issues. Obviously his specialty surgery, but he's not surgery. Happy as well. I don't want to be repetitive, but they're just simply. Not enough, good things. I could say about highly recommend him. And as a side note, the office was immaculate and the staff were very kind of compassionate as well. It's a rare thing these days. Define the Doctor who treats you. With the genuineness of truly caring about your health, please don't hesitate.Should you need services

2 minutes in, Dr. Ochoa is CRAZY unprofessional…read more I wore a monitor for a week because of palpitations, rapid heart rate and 3 ER visits, and when I went in to get the results, I was fully disrespected by this cardiologist. He didn't show me my monitor results, explain to me any findings, talk through theories of what has been going on with my heart, nothing. He came in, used a stethoscope, then said he didn't see anything, and dismissed me mid-sentence lol. I am not exaggerating. I was in the middle of asking him about the results and he straight up shook my hand and started leaving the room. What??? I have been struggling with scary heart issues for two months now and was finally going to see this cardiologist and get things sorted out, and I was dismissed mid-sentence. He spent maybe 3 minutes with me tops, barely said a thing and then practically ran out of the room. I was so, so disappointed. He basically said for me to see my general doctor, and I said "MY doctor told me he didn't know what was going on and to see YOU, a cardiologist!" You can understand how one would leave an appointment like this feeling hopeless. BUT just know that the staff at this facility, not him, he's terrible, but the staff are incredible, helpful and so knowledgeable! They will bend over backwards for you, very cool people, hence why I didn't give this place only one star.

This review is for the OBGYN office on on Soquel, across the street from the birth center…read more I gave birth at the birth center across the street from my OBGYN, Dr. Oderman, who is fantastic. About 3 months after giving birth my breastmilk supply suddenly and without any reason that I could identify almost completely dried up over a 2 day period. I immediately worked with the lactation center where I delivered, they were great and my milk supply came back about 70%. However every-time I backed off on pumping between feedings or slept through the night my supply would drop drastically. Exhausted I sent an urgent email to my OBGYN care team explaining my ongoing issue with my supply. My OB was booked so they scheduled me to see a NP/Midwife. During our appointment I made it clear that my delivery was fantastic, everything had been absolutely perfect for the last few months. I then tried to figure out how the system worked and where the red tape was so that I could be seen by a specialist asap, have tests done, whatever it took to rebuild my supply and fix the problem. I asked questions like "what if I go to the ER, can I check myself into the hospital, will my doctor admit me to the hospital, what if I say I'm suicidal and go to a mental hospital, what if I refuse to leave the office until someone agrees to helps me...". I made it clear that I didn't have postpartum depression or any mental illness issues but that I needed help, immediately, not in 2-3 months, because I couldn't figure out what the problem was on my own and the pumping routine was wearing me down. The NP/Midwife, named Sarah Flores, asked me if I was on anti depressants or anti anxiety meds. I said no, I don't need them I'm not depressed. She asked me if I had Covid.. She made ZERO attempt to figure out what may have been causing my supply problem, made ZERO recommendations. It was as if she didn't know or care why I was there in the first place. She literally offered no insight, advice, or had any discussion with me whatsoever about lactation. After making it clear that under no circumstances would I be receiving help anytime soon I began to cry out of frustration while holding my 3 month old baby. While loading my child into the carseat she ended my appointment by asking me if I was in therapy!! I looked at her and said, "I don't need therapy". She smiled and said in a high pitched voice "ok". I looked at her again and said "there is nothing wrong with my mind", she replied with the same condescending smirk and voice "ok". - The notes she made in my chart are so deceptively edited it is truly breathtaking, any propaganda organization would happily hire her. I found out today from my insurance company that she coded the diagnosis for that appointment as "Anxiety", so my insurance wont be covering it. Keep in mind, I emailed the office saying clearly that the issue was Lactation, it's in writing. The appointment was booked for Lactation. I went in to my OBGYN's office desperate for help with my milk supply and was humiliated, treated like some hysterical postpartum nut-job, then left with a diagnosis of mental illness. Absolutely disgusting, PAMF/Sutter should be embarrassed. I'll never go to another dr. appointment without a witness ever again.

From the start, I found Dr. Johnson to be straight forward and caring with me. His explanations of…read moremy condition were easy to understand. He goes far beyond what we normally expect as service from a cardiologist. I had an appointment with him in February where I was complaining that I had had 2 cat scans done by another doctor to assess reasons for impaired kidney function. I had been waiting for almost 3 weeks to hear anything about the results of the scans. I told Dr. Johnson that I was worried and the other doctor was not available every time I tried to contact the office. Dr. Johnson immediately pulled up my Dignity file and was able to review the scans. It appeared that I had a mass on my pancreas. Dr Johnson immediately scheduled me with the only GI specialist in Santa Cruz who could perform an endoscopy for me. That doctor was a Sutter/Stanford doctor. Dr. Johnson personally got the approval for me to have the Endoscopy procedure performed within 2 days. The results of that test confirmed the suspicions of the doctors. I have pancreatic cancer. Now I will have to fight with my insurance company to send me to Stanford (32 miles from home) rather than UCSF (92 miles from home and family). If not for Dr. Johnson seeing the mass on my early cat scan, I have no way of knowing how long this cancer would have had to grow and threaten my life. I owe my life to Dr. Johnson.
