I highly recommend Dr. Tediana Torrens at Peninsula Integrative Medicine in Palo Alto. Dr. Torrens…read moreis patient, thoughtful, and truly listens. She offers practical suggestions that actually work, and she takes the time to look for the root cause rather than just treating symptoms. I had been dealing with an illness for 10 years that traditional Western medicine specialists had not been able to solve. Dr. Torrens was relentless in trying to figure it out and she did! I have not felt this good in years! What I appreciate most is that she understands there is a place for both functional medicine and traditional Western medicine. She usually recommends a functional, natural-first approach, but when she sees an issue that needs to be addressed more quickly, she is not afraid to integrate conventional medicine in the treatment plan. When she does so, she will include natural remedies to help with side effects and to support the body during treatment. In my experience, functional medicine can sometimes look at the body through a wider lens, including specialty testing and approaches that may reveal patterns not always captured by standard medical testing. Dr. Torrens brings all of that together with patience, intelligence, and persistence. There is room in everyone's medical care for both traditional Western medicine and functional medicine. When used together, they can be incredibly powerful. Dr. Torrens is an excellent example of that.

We recently tried One Medical via Amazon…read more This service was advertised as a $49.99 virtual healthcare visit.  Upon learning that we were not physically in the US (we were in France at the time) the doctor said that he is not able to consult. Following my short explanation of the issue, he reiterated that he could not help and I should be seen in person at an urgent care type facility.  This entire call lasted less than 5 minutes.   Imagine the surprise when, a couple of weeks later, I received a bill for $230 with reason as "New Patient Office Visit: Complex".   I reached out to One Medical saying that (1) this was not an office visit (2) it certainly wasn't complex and (3) the rate for a video consult is $49.99. All I received in response was a convoluted boilerplate saying that somewhere/somehow I had picked a different path than Amazon's advertised $49.99 service, resulting in much higher billing for the same service. This response totally ignored the fact that it was not "an office visit" and there is nothing "complex" if the physician is unable to consult.    My subsequent email reiterating that this was not an office visit, that the virtual meeting lasted less than 5 mins, was by no means complex and the only outcome was the suggestion to go to an urgent care facility went unanswered. Yet the bills just keep coming. To me, this is a clear case of bait and switch wrapped around overbilling with incorrect service description. Needless to say, I have no plans to pay this outrageous and improper bill. Moreover, if One Medical do not address their disengenous practice of claiming a brief and utterly useless chat with someone who was not able to offer any medical opinion or input as a "complex visit", I plan to broadly expose this practice on social media, and report it to compliance, health authorities, consumer protection as well as to Amazon executives as they should re-evaluate their relationship with such a shady operation.

My work insurance changed and I've recently switched to Kaiser. My experience so far with Kaiser…read morehas made me realize how poorly I was served by Stanford Family Practice. First thing you need to know--it will take months--yes, literally months--to get an appointment. When I reacted in disbelief, I was told unapologetically "Stanford in a teaching facility our doctors are only in a couple of days a week". Seeing patients is not the priority of this center. Second thing to know--you will get mysteriously charged additional copays months after your appointment. It turns out that the doctors do not charge copay by appointment, but by "topic". When I questioned the additional copay, I was told I must have asked the doctor a question unrelated to what my appointment was schedule for so each additional question can be charged a separate copay. Are you kidding me? Finally, and most importantly, again Standford is a teaching hospital--if you require surgery, or treatment, I highly advise that you ask that the interns/students do not work on you. I did not, and I physically paid dearly for it!!

First, I want to correct something another reviewer said. He said it takes months to get an…read moreappointment. In the fifteen years I've been going there, I've almost always gotten an appointment within a week. Even better is that they recently started offering same-day appointments. You only have to make an appointment if there's one specific doctor you Just call first thing in the morning and you'll likely get in that day. Both Dr. Richard Lee (who sadly is no longer there) and now Dr. Crump have given me first-class treatment. I've always been treated well there. When was very open to alternative therapy for getting my blood pressure down. Thanks to his guidance and openness, I'm now off my hypertension medication completely! But the appointment that stood out most for me was when I fell and was in insane amounts of ankle pain. Dr. Crump examined it and said that it was at worst a hairline fracture. I asked if he should x-ray it. His response put a smile on my face. He said, "We could do an x-ray, but the treatment would be the same." In today's broken fee-for-service medical industry, it was refreshing to have a doctor who wasn't suggesting unnecessary procedures to get paid more by insurance companies. In short, I've always gotten first-class treatment from Stanford Family Practice and will be going there as long as possible.
