    My husband started seeing Dr. Ron Golan recently in the urology group. He was quite pleased with…read morehis first appointment and delighted he found a great urologist. Dr. Golan is a young and capable scientist. He has a good sense of humor but is also very professional. He's well educated having graduated UPENN medicine followed by Columbia, while still keeping current on evolving scientific research and data. You'd be lucky to be his patient with his bedside manner and strong scientific and clinical skills. Office was easy to get to, park and navigate to Dr. Golan's office. Highly recommend! See their website for more information.

    Since Sutter took over there are so many problems with this clinic that it is hard to believe…read more 1. People that answer the phone are all now in Sacramento, but pretend like they are local "let me run down the hall to ask the doctor". 2. Needed to ask my doctor to re-activate an expired cholesterol blood test. People answering the phone said I could not do that, I needed to ask the doctor in person. 3. Have been denied the ability three times to log into MyChart due to system errors over the last few weeks. 4. Parking lot is so full you need to park on the street. 5. Biopsy notifications (cancer ones) are handled by people that have very little bedside manner and presumably little training. The phone got disconnected by Sansum on a Friday afternoon and they never called me back whilst in the middle of a positive cancer biopsy discussion. Leaving to one of the other clinics.

    5 star service all around for my delivery. I had twin girls by emergency c-section at 32 weeks in…read moreAugust of 2014. The nurses were incredible in the L&D department, maternity ward, and the NICU. The NICU staff is wonderful. Very kind, knowledgeable, and experienced. So many of the nurses have had 20+ years experience in the NICU. That was comforting. The Neonatologists were great as well. They always took the time to sit and chat and answer as many questions as we had. The doctors were also available by phone if we happened to miss them in the NICU. Unfortunately not all hospitals have the same environment as Cottage's NICU. The new hospital is beautiful and the food .... Holy moly. A hospital with a menu! Awesome.

These people are clearly not in the business of helping people. All they care about is money!!!! Shame on you JMG!!!! You can go kick rocks!!!

    I was assigned to this medical group and scheduled four months out for a physical. I asked to be…read moreplaced on a cancellation list in hopes of being seen sooner. Nearly three months later, I called to check my position on the cancellation list and to confirm my appointment date so I could complete the required electronic forms (which couldn't be done without that date). I was on hold for over 10 minutes before being disconnected, then waited another 5 minutes when I called back. When I finally reached the new patient intake coordinator, I mentioned that it would have been helpful if the appointment date had been included in the email so I wouldn't need to call to confirm. Instead of addressing the issue, she became defensive, explaining how she was the only person in that role/ department. I told her I understood but felt their processes could improve and lessen the frustration. When I asked where I was on the cancellation list, she responded in a condescending manner, telling me they had many patients and that I wasn't their only one. I explained that I was aware of their multiple locations and providers and that I'd be happy to see any provider, of any gender, if it meant being seen sooner. Despite that, she continued to give reasons why it wasn't possible to move my appointment. I did finally drag out of her that I was third on the list in which I said there was hope. I thanked her and ended the call. To my surprise, she called me back in what felt like a passive-aggressive manner, asking why I had hung up on her. I told her I had thanked her and was finished speaking. She was upset that I didn't say good bye but instead said thank you and hung up. She commented on my tone, and I told her I didn't appreciate her manner toward me and that I was matching her energy at this point. The conversation escalated, and admittedly, I did say the f word once out of frustration because she had called back only to continue the conflict rather than help. She then stated she would be speaking with management to revoke my ability to be seen at their practice. I said I understood and would also like to speak with management. About a week later, I received a letter stating I had been removed as a patient and would need to be reassigned elsewhere. After reading reviews on Yelp and other sites, I noticed a pattern of similar experiences. In the end, they probably did me a favor, but the lack of professionalism, empathy, and accountability from their intake staff was incredibly disappointing and reflects poorly on how this medical group treats patients. I don't generally leave reviews but this was unethical and very disappointing.
