    I was being treated by one of the doctors there when the prescription they gave me may be nauseated…read moreso she told me to stop taking it and come back into the office and see her. When I came into my next appointment, Dr. Riviera was there instead of the other doctor and she looked at me as if confused why I was there. She asked me what she could do for me. I was dumbfounded. Now they charge me $150 fee for I'm not sure, what five minutes of their time? I will never ever go back there again. Their office staff is immature and unprofessional. They gossip and make fun of the patients as they sit in the waiting room. They have absolutely no shame at all. Terrible experience overall.

    This isn't the location I saw this practice at. I am not sure why she has several locations listed…read moreon Yelp. I, like many others, had an incredibly poor experience here. I have a severe autoimmune condition that really needs a physician's attention, but the staff said I could only see a PA. Ok, fine, at least I would be a patient at the practice and could maybe see the doctor next time. I saw the PA and it was a nightmare. She spent the entire appointment typing, didn't do any kind of exam (I was sitting in the chair next to her the whole time) and I don't think even looked up at me once. She then hastily told me she thought I had a disease that I do not have, ordered labs, and then never communicated the abnormalities to me when I returned for a follow up visit. She brushed off a few very obvious abnormalities and prescribed a strong medication for--again--a disease another actual physician rheumatologist confirmed I don't have, and was completely unaware that a previous infusion medication I had been given has ongoing effects on bloodwork. e.g., masking some results. So I don't know about the doctor here, but the PA I saw did not seem knowledgeable about rheumatology in the least. Maybe seeing Dr. Rivera is better, I am unsure since I never saw her. I asked the PA if she had reviewed my case with Dr. Rivera and she said yes, so I don't know if the whole practice is bad, or just the PA's. Also--the office is up a couple of flights of stairs, with no elevator. They don't mention that when you make an appointment. And that can be really hard for people with rheumatologic issues. So overall, they don't seem to provide solid care or diagnostic help.

    As a guy, I never thought much about gut health until ongoing digestive issues started affecting my…read moreenergy and day-to-day life. Working with Brandy Augustine was one of the best decisions I've made for my health. She took the time to understand what was going on, explained everything in a way that made sense, and created a personalized plan that was realistic to follow. Within a few months, I noticed a huge difference in my digestion, energy levels, and overall health. Brandy is knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely cares about helping her clients succeed. She never made me feel rushed and was always available to answer questions along the way. If you're dealing with gut issues and want someone who knows what they're doing and truly cares about your progress, I highly recommend Brandy. Five stars without hesitation!

    I've been seeing Brandy for years and she has kept me healthy. I go regularly and she always has a…read moregood grasp on whats going on with my insides. I've had a long history of gut issues being a cancer survivor and an overly regular person. She has managed to keep me feeling well, strong and healthy. I really like her teas too! People out there walking around with all kinds of parasites and god knows what swimming around in their guts, brandy has the solution. She listens and tests and boom, you're good to go. Its nothing like some of those other places that give people random supplements to take, she tailors all of the recommendations to what your body needs in that moment and it always helps.

    I'm new to the area. I have several autoimmunes that have required treatment for 10 years. I used…read moreto see top specialists in Los Angeles. I made a big mistake just picking this place from a hat. Dr. MALAHAT Mohavedian seemed concerned with my notable symptoms. She ordered a handful of blood tests, and several x-rays. Why x-rays are required for autoimmunes is unclear, and she did not explain. When the results weren't back in 10!days, with my symptoms out of control, I wrote to the office on their portal. No one responded to the messages EVER. When the results finally arrived the doctor called me, but she did not understand my questions, so they went unanswered. She clearly had no idea who I was at that point (she could have looked at my file). Staff is nice.

This has nothing to do with the Dr. but Maria, who is in charge of Pre Authorizations for medication. I spoke to her on May 12th regarding CVS Specialty Pharmacy requiring a Pre Author. She said she would call them and call me back. She did call me back on Thursday, May 12th around 4pm and told me that CVS needed the Medical , Group, BIN and PNC #. I told her that I would get that information and I will call her back. It wasn't even 30 minutes when I called her back on Thursday, the same day and left her a voicemail letting her know that I have requested information that CVS is asking for. I left her another voicemail on Friday, May 13th. Today is Monday, May 16th and do you think Maria has returned my phone call. NO!!! I'm the one that called CVS Specialty on Friday, May 13th and gave them all the information and dealt with them when the insurance denied it. CVS Rep told me that I would need to call the Dr's office and I told them I have already left 2 messages for Maria and she hasn't returned my call and my son needs his medication!!!! I was on the phone with CVS Specialty for almost an hour and finally was able to resolve the issue. The Dr's office should pay me for doing Maria's job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
