Ive seen quite a few psychiatrists over the years, but Dr. Sandhu was the only one who truly understood my needs and got my medications just right. He took the time to explain everything, making sure I understood my treatment and was comfortable with it. I always found him approachable, informative, and easy to talk to, even offering some helpful wisdom from time to time which made a huge difference in my overall experience. I was under Dr. Sandhu's care for about eight years, and even during televisits, he provided the same level of attentiveness and support. I felt reassured knowing I could reach out to him whenever needed. Unfortunately, due to recent changes, he is no longer able to prescribe my medication, and I was cut loose. This transition has been challenging, as I haven't been able to regain the stability I had under his care. It's disappointing, as Dr. Sandhu was a wonderful psychiatrist who genuinely cared about his patients' well-being. I'd highly recommend him to anyone seeking thoughtful and expert care. read more

my name is Anthony Jarjour I have been seeing Dr.Sandhu for two years he is a wonderful psychiatrist he medicates me the way I need to be medicated and he is very compassionate helpful and gives me great advice on how to cope with certain private emotional problems if there would be more stars to give than five I would give them to Dr. Sandhu and his staff with pleasure if the staff is on another line when I call I leave a message and as soon as possible the staff returns my call at the end of next month Dr. Sandhu is semi retiring he will greatly missed by me I have the highest respect for Dr. Sandhu as a psychiatrist and as a human being Dr. Sandhu is A1 in my book read more

I have to say i havent seen him in many years but will tell you that hes one of the best! He cared so much for you. Not only did he give you your medicine but he also spent time talking with you. read more

I saw Dr. Sandu before tele appointment. Seeing him in person worked out well. He stopped seeing me after he know longer was with my insurance.Years went by and I am now with Hoag Medical Group. He showed as a psychiatrist doing tele visits. I was so disappointed in how care changed drastically since he worked from home. He never gave me significant time to properly manage my medications. I suffer with chronic depression and anxiety. I need meds to sleep due to insomnia. My benefits give me 25 min. and usually he gave me 10 minutes. His wife is the bookkeeper and does the billing. Last straw he ignored my request for a refill and for 10 nights I could not sleep. He lied and said it was all my fault. He lost all control and was screaming and swearing at me. Please to keep your sanity stay clear of his scam. read more

I arrived at Dr. Sandhu's office this morning needing help with my daughters diagnosis as well setting an appointment. Ciana at the front desk was extremely helpful, caring and knowledgeable. She went above and beyond to make sure that all of my daughters needs were met. I can't thank her enough for all of her help. Extremely great customer service. read more

This review is not for Dr. Sandhu, who is genuinely wonderful. Rather, it's for the staff. A few months ago, I arrived for an appointment to find out I owed $600. Apparently someone had forgot to copy my insurance information, so my insurance was never billed. They claimed they called me to attempt to settle the matter. This is a lie, because while I received calls reminding me of my appointments, never once did anyone ask me about my insurance or let me know there was a problem. They offered to knock $100 dollars off the bill, but how does that help? Since they refused to do anything, I ended up billing insurance myself. However, my insurance needed clarification on certain items, and sent multiple letters to Dr. Sandhu's office. No response. I called Dr. Sandhu's office myself and asked them to contact my insurance. They claim they never received ANY of the letters my insurance sent (unlikely), and they would call my insurance to get things sorted out. I called my insurance, and Dr. Sandhu's office NEVER CALLED. I've been dealing with the lies and hassle for several months now without an end in sight. STAY AWAY. Update: Just spoke with Summer who admitted she never actually called my insurance company because she "didn't want to sit on hold with insurance for an hour." These people should not be working in a doctor's office. read more

While I don't mind Dr Sandhu, his staff are abominable I had tried to set up payments for a past bill that I needed clarification on since I did not understand how the insurance was billed They berated me for this and criticized me. I truly do t understand how they can be this way since they work at this type of office I have switched to a different doctor due to the staff read more

Dr. Sandhu is the best!!! I have been coming to him for a few years and he always takes the time to listen to you and give great advice. He truly cares about his patients unlike other Psychiatrists I've seen in the past. He works with you until you find the meds you need. I highly recommended him to anyone looking for the best Psychiatrist! read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Dr. Sandhu's office is filled with incompetent people. The front desk staff is unethical, rude, and constantly breaking the law. They will threaten to withhold prescriptions from you. They will prescribe you medication and then not refill it until you pay them whatever they ask. Absolute monsters. read more

What an awful man! I saw Dr. Sandhu on August 24th. My appointment was at 2:20pm but had to wait an hour to be seen. I was a new patient, he had no history on me. I suffer from severe anxiety which causes extreme shortness of breath which then causes depression. I asked for an anti-depressant that also works on anxiety, a maintenance med to control anxiety and an anti-anxiety med for the acute anxiety I am having. I asked for something different than what I was currently taking and what I had taken in the past. He wrote me a script for an anti-anxiety med I had spent 7 years on and that did NOT work for me. I told him this and he said he didn't care, he was the doctor and to do what I was told. He basically told me to shut up and do what I was told. He then gave me a med that is neither for depression or anxiety. I told him I had taken that med before as well and it didn't work and that was not what I was looking for or what I needed. He didn't listen to a thing I said. I left in tears. I don't think he has any clue what he's doing, he doesn't listen to his patients, he didn't care that these meds hadn't worked for me in the past or that the med I was taking at the time was working. He wrote me a script for what I was already on (that wasn't working) and scripts for 2 meds that hadn't worked in the past. The appointment was a complete waste of my time and money and was just a big disappointment. I'd avoid this guy at all costs and find a new doctor or just keep looking. read more

Excellent doctor. So glad I found him. I agree with the other reviewer, within in minutes he has you figured out. I think my entire appointment was 20 minutes and I felt so much better after I left. I look forward to my appointments to check in with him. read more

Dr Sandi is a Godsend! He has worked with me for years to get me just the right meds to work. He is very patient and very kind. I would highly recommend him! read more

Doctor :I am so grateful for his knowledge & how he is willing to actually listen to me and here me go on & on about whatever it is I'm going through. He right away knew what was wrong & going on with me!!!!! He has me on the best medication regiment I have ever been in! He understands my fear of meds & doesn't judge me or pushes me. You will always leave with a new positive outlook on life. He is so smart & definitely knows what he is doing. THANK YOU doctor Sandhu I am very happy being your patient! Staff: When I called Natalie was so patient with me I did not even know what insurance I had she walked me through and got me an appointment within a month she told me my insurance had a high deductible ( I had no idea what that meant ) she explained my benefits so well & answered my questions, so Natalie thank you for all your initial help. When I walked in she had my new patient forms ready to go on a clipboard for me to start. She was sweet & asked if I would like some water & even asked if I wanted the tv on or off. She remembers the small convs we have & every time I come she makes me feel welcomed Summer, where to start thank you I feel is not enough. I was worried what the amount of my 2 first visits were going to be because my insurance was not processing them & my high deductible & I was going to come in for my 3rd visit. I had Natalie transfer me to you & WOW the way you made me feel by the end of the call almost had me in tears you, you were incredibly understanding told me not to worry about a thing that if for some reason my insurance took longer & my balance became big you would not deny me from seeing the doctor & set up a payment plan. You could of said simply the amount was due & period, but you didn't you heard my finance situation & worked to make sure we had something figured out. As a person who suffers with anxiety you have no idea the weight you took of my shoulders.Now my account is cleared & my insurance is paying on time! Then I had trouble getting my medication from the pharmacy because once again my insurance was giving you a hard time you gave samples until you were able to get the medication approved for me & then gave me a COUPON to LOWER EVEN MORE THE COST OF THE MEDICATION FOR A WHOLE YEAR. you are an angel & a great assistant to the doctor. Thank you Summer, doctor Sandhu, & Natalie for being the best ever! read more

Dr. Sandhu played an extreme part in getting my mental health back in check after my severe anxiety had spiraled out of control and landed me in an intense depressive state. I felt non-functional and hopeless. After a brief stay at the hospital, I came to see Dr. Sandhu. His wise words and thoughtful treatment plan helped to lift me up out of the very dark place I was in and I became a functional human being again. I continue to come to Dr. Sandhu after almost two years because of the way he makes me feel. Every time I come to his office he makes me feel like I can accomplish and overcome anything. He reminds me that what I am feeling (anxiety) will not hurt me and that I need to trust myself. He has given me such brilliant advice that I use to this day every time I start to feel down. I have recommended several people to Dr. Sandhu and will continue to do so because of the incredible, caring and patient person he is. Please go see him if you need help! read more

People at reception are extremely rude and inflexible. They doesn't answer even simple questions. It's a shame that I had to change my mind to see dr Sarabjit because of them. read more

I am so grateful I found Dr. Sandhu! I've seen many psychiatrists and he spends more time with his patients than I've ever experienced, even on check ups. He remembers his patients well and personal details. It's apparent how much he cares. After trying 10/15 medications, I was feeling hopeless that nothing was going to work for me. I came in crying thinking I was just going to have to manage myself without medication. He reassured me that, no matter what, he would figure out a combo of meds that works for me. After a few sessions of adjusting and tweaking, I am finally on the best combination of medication I've ever been on and finally feel good, which is something I have not experienced in quite some time. I had a hard time affording the medication and he even helped me out with that. The staff is great too, they are so on top of any pharmacy or insurance requests or whatever you need! In my opinion, Dr. Sandhu is the best around, hands down! read more

I should not feel bad for this doctor and his practice, but I do. I am seeing him for 5 years, I have always been consistent with my treatment and kept up my scheduled appointments. Doctor has always maintained my refills, all fair and good until the last couple of appointments when he and or his staff carelessly and irresponsibly placed my health in extreme danger. The first time was in April 2019 when a week prior to my appointment, I ran out of medication. I called the office to request a few pills to keep me until my appointment (six days) . The immediate, non-hesitant answer from Stephanie was a NO ( as if she were used to do that with other patients.) She told me I could not see the doctor before my appointment and I could not get refills until the date of my appointment. She also refused to let me speak to the doctor and to get, from the source, a commonsensical, medical reason for such as blatant denial. With her refusal, she was inflicting upon me severe harm, horrendous withdrawal effects, pain, suicidal thoughts, nausea, vomiting, migraines, dizziness, fainting and changes in mood and behavior for a week. To her, my deterioration in health was a fair and just punishment for not making an appointment a few days before I run out of refills. She was confused, arrogant and merciless. In my sixty years of existence, I have never seen nor experienced anything like that until then. Nonetheless, I took it like a pro, took time off from work (as I couldn't drive nor function) and went to see the doctor. During my meeting with him, I realized that the doctor was either an excellent liar or he was just really oblivious to what transpires behind doors. He shyly agreed that the risks I was placed on by staff were unnecessary and assured me that he was going to do a "sensitivity training" talk with his staff regarding what happened to me. Well, if he did it, it didn't work; it happened again. I had an appointment scheduled for 7-12th , the office called me to cancel it as doctor was not going to be in and re-scheduled it for the following week. In the meantime, I needed my refill, or at least enough meds to keep me safe for a week. The answer of course: NO. I do not know how many times I literally begged to talk to the doctor or to leave him a message. Stephanie as well as her sidekick Summer told me they talked to the doctor and that he does not want to give me the refill until the 19th. (period, take it or leave it). Seeing him prior to the 19th was not an option either. I reminded them that they were the ones who cancelled my otherwise perfectly timely appointment. They did not listen. The girls running the doctor's practice not only have responded with a total disregard for my health, but have acted negligently, capriciously and maliciously. They know they are dealing with the most vulnerable of patients and can care less. I guarantee you I am not wrong in concluding that these girls get their power kicks that way. They love to go to work for a man who is detached or appears to, and thrive on it. I have no choice but to proceed with a complaint to the Medical Board, no one deserves to be treated the way I was treated and to go through what I was unnecessarily forced to go through. By the way:... Bye Felicia! read more

I've been going with my mother to her appts with Dr Sandhu for almost 4 years. He has done an excellent job managing her anxiety and keeping her dosage on the low side. He has spent time with her in the past, when she needed time to talk through things. There have been times where we have had a long wait, but those are balanced out with quick appts. He really seems to "get" my mom, and I appreciate all of the information he has given over the years. read more

Dr. Sandhu is awesome! He takes SO MUCH time with you... which is why the wait time can sometimes be brutal. But I appreciate the time he takes with me and he says it like it is... works well for me but maybe not for others. read more

Dr. Sandhu is the best psychiatrist I've ever had in almost thirty years of treatment. I've been seeing him for about a year and a half now, and I love him!! The most amazing thing about him is his ability to read people. It's like magic! I met him in the hospital, and within 5 minutes, he had me mostly figured out. It's a gift that he has. I am doing better than I ever have done before! I do not always agree with him, and we debate once in a while, which I find helpful. I will say the only drawback to Dr. Sandhu is that he habitually runs WAAAAAY late on his appointments, but I have decided that I am willing to wait. He has given me so many "gems" of knowledge for coping with life that I now bring my cellphone in so I can take voice notes when he offers something of particular wisdom! Haha! Seriously, Dr. Sandhu has changed my life so much for the better. THE BEST. read more

In all honesty I never actually got to see Dr. Sandhu so I can't speak to him as a psychiatrist, but what I can speak to is the incredible amount of stress and anxiety that he caused me just trying to see him. The receptionist will never pick up her phone, after calling every day for a week (during normal business hours) and being sent straight to voicemail I realized she must have a problem with simply answering her phone seeing as she could not possibly be so busy as a receptionist for just one doctor every minute of the day. She told me multiple times (after calling me back) that she would check with my insurance (which I had already done) to make sure they were in network so she could make me an appointment. After a week, I was finally able to make an appointment and I got there early so I could complete the new patient paperwork. I was also told at this time that their credit card reader wasn't working so I would have to pay my co-pay in cash (inconvenient). Twenty minutes after my appointment was supposed to begin, his current patient walked out and the receptionist motioned for the man sitting next to me that he could go in. I asked if he was simply refilling a prescription and when my appointment would begin and was told that it would be at least 30 minutes since that was the "requirement" for every visit and my appointment (being a new patient) was required to be an hour. Since my babysitter wasn't able to watch my son for 3 hours I had to simply cancel my appointment and leave. I would not recommend this doctor to anyone because as great as he may be (again I never even got to meet him) anyone struggling with anxiety/depression/stress would have to really suffer to even try and see him. read more

Doctor failed to call back when I needed a prescription filled and office visit waits always exceed an hour. Today I waited 1 hr. 45 min before walking out. I find it rude and unprofessional when Doctors stack patients and make them wait so long. How hard is it to learn to schedule properly? What is the point of making an appointment when they never follow a simple schedule. Lame! As if my time is worthless.. I would not recommend this practice. read more
