While Dr. Weintraub was very personable and assuring - i did not receive quality care for a very uncomfortable and undiagnosed condition. After initial treatment didn't work, I had a follow-up appt. with one of the PA's who was completely unhelpful - I literally got a blank stare and "nothing we can do but wait it out" when pleading for a solution to a problem I'd been experiencing for over 6-8 weeks. The only solution offered was to return in another 6-8 weeks if symptoms persist. Again - to reiterate I was in a lot of pain with an undiagnosed condition. Fortunately, I went to another urologist who tested for the ONE thing that should be tested based on previous test results that Dr. Weintraub had and am now on the correct treatment. Would seek out another Urology center such as Huntington or Cedars. read more

Dr. Weintraub is awful and useless is the best way to describe this doctor...If I could i would put a complaint with California board I would (In fact I still might his behavior was close to malpractice)... seek medical advice/treatment from anyone besides this a******! My wife is young (38yo) and healthy and height weight proportionate... read more

I had gone here last week to get a blood test and was told that there was a problem with the test so I had to go back for another prick. Hopefully all the results come out okay. No want anymore pricks or prods. read more

I found Dr. Weintraub extremely experienced and knowledgeable with a selection of choices a man would need for an enlarged prostrate. Dr. Weintraub analyzed my situation and selected the correct procedure to improve my situation. The Doctor, Renato and the staff are amazing, they are all very efficient and caring. When I had a question on a Saturday, I left a message and in 5 minutes Renato returned my call to answer my question. Thank you David Berman read more

I purchased a bottle of Sildenafil # 90 pills for $100.00 cash from Dr. Weintraub MD at his office on 2701 West Alameda Ave Ste 200 Burbank, CA 91505 I tried the medication over a period of 6 days and the medication did not work what so ever, although it was guaranteed to have the exact same ingredients as Viagra. (Viagra always worked) When I called his office I was kept on hold for 5 minutes and then told by a nurse in a very curt manner, that " there were no refunds for this medication" I told her that I was going to sue them in small claims court and she could have cared less. - Told me to go right ahead and sue! I have a receipt and nowhere on that document does it state that there are no refunds given in the event that this medication does not work as described.by a very insulting nurse. Very classy office staff, and shows that it is all about the cash. read more

I like their system, very efficient Loved the staff, front desk girls are so nice and thorough. Speaking of front desk- that cooler full of complimentary water in the waiting room was awesome too. We've been here twice already and left happy both times. They're thorough and personable. Also very reasonably priced - $100 read more

Dr Weintraub when I first met him I thought he was going to be a respectable doctor. Not the case, he didn't let the nurse change my catheter when it was suppose to be changed,which I ended my up in the ER. Then I contract a virus from his decision. On top of that he gave me a prescription for a drug for a Cystogram procedure, went to the office and didn't do the procedure. Kicked me out of the office In a wheelchair through the back door that is never used.Then he denied that the procedure was never scheduled. Health Net and the Urology Associates covered it up. Why give me a prescription for the drug ? Asshole. 9 months of hell with these 2 almost resulted in death in St Joseph hospital. God saved me not Health Net or Dr Weintraub. They really need to be held accountable for their action ? Department of Health !!!! read more

This review is for Dr. Philip Weintraub. READ EVERY ONE STAR REVIEW. THEY ARE ACCURATE. CANCEL YOUR APPOINTMENT RIGHT NOW!!! Dr. Weintraub diagnosed me with a very slow growing small cancerous tumor in my bladder. Standard procedure is to go to St. Joseph's hospital to remove the tumor and flush the bladder out with chemotherapy and then drain the chemo out of my bladder. While fully awake a nurse filled my bladder with Mitomycin (the chemo drug). The pain was indescribable. The nurse acted like I was being a drama queen but said she would get Dr. Weintraub to come see me. Hours went by and he never showed up or even bothered to call. I went home in horrible pain. The next day I called his office and his nurse told me "Don't worry it will pass" I could not stand the pain one more second and my wife drove me to his office. The office could care less about my situation and I insisted I see the doctor. He was positive that this could not possibly be caused by the procedure I had. He basically washed his hands of me. I went across the street to St. Josephs emergency room. I was admitted into the hospital for 24 days. Put on heavy doses of a very strong IV opiate drug dilaudid. After numerous cystoscopies, colonoscopies and a myriad of procedures Dr. Weintraub and a slew of doctors were all dumbfounded. Again everyone denied this had anything to do with my surgery. Until one doctor slipped and mentioned my bladder had been perforated. The hospital and Dr, Weintraub had done their best to hide this fact. I realized that St. Joseph hospital and Dr, Weintraub had flat out lied to me. They just charged my MPIPHP insurance for weeks and lined their own pockets while completely ignoring a human in agony. I transferred to UCLA in Santa Monica and in three days they had done all the tests necessary. They told me what had happened. During surgery Dr. Weintraub had perforated my bladder and when the chemotherapy drug was instilled into my bladder it leaked out into my pelvic floor and like an acid it completely burned everything it touched. The UCLA doctors said there was nothing to do now. The damage had been done. Go home and heal. I was sent home and was completely bedridden unable to stand upright for over a year. The pain of your insides being burned so bad cannot be put into words. I was on a transdermal patch of FENTANYL for over 18 months while all my nerves were regrowing. This ordeal forced me into an early retirement. The withdrawal from the fentanyl was almost as bad as the pain from the burns. Medical procedures can have many complications. A compassionate doctor will really earn their money when things don't go as planned. I cannot fathom just shrugging your shoulders and walking away like this is no big deal. Because of Dr. Weintraub's dismissive attitude to patients suffering I no longer trust any doctor. Hopefully some day you Dr. Weintraub will need some help from a medical professional. When that day comes I hope you get a doctor as uncaring and unsympathetic as you have been to your patients. read more

Dr Weintraub explained my condition in easy to understand terminology. He has a warm and easy going manner that makes one feel at ease. His staff was welcoming and accommodating and helpful. highly recommend. read more

Beware of 2 persons if you visit this office, they have a PA Shayani Cailleteau, working their and the other DR whom I requested briefly spoke to me once DR Chandrosama. Those 2 are the worse persons I have ever dealt with in going to a DR visit in my entire life. They offered me only 1 life threatening medication to take for life, and did not answer any of my questions or concerns about more then 1 symptom going on with urological things. When i mention world alternatives, was told their is none this is it, were done with you, we treated you less pain now, and left. Less pain is not a cure my problems are still here. Very Dangerous life risking DR and PA, that dont care at all about patients real concerns or life care. They should loose thier license to practice for failing to force a person an a drug that doesn't cure anything, and risks their life saftey, heath, for life ?? I was flat out told take this for life ?? No other options for you. I had to do this chasing the PA in the public area after she walked out before we completed discussions of concerns correctly in the Appt i made due to their negligence to call back, about it. When I told them of the side effects, offered ZERO concerns for it and offered no cure or anything to fix the side effects, told me to just keep taking this med for life ?? That lady is insane and fully unqualified to be treating live patients, Dr Chandorsama allowing this to happen and not correctly treating me as well is a fraud. Call these quacks paper doctors, they can read books and follow other lead doctors to get a license but have no real skills in treating patients by themselves. Book readers to get a license doesn't mean qualified, even though they got the degree for it. Clearly some of the things they told me, where false and shows clear lack of medical understanding in their profession. BEWARE of these 2 persons if you visit this office, The staff was nice though, I dont know the other DR's at all so cant comment on that. But those 2 for sure are QUACKS. read more

I had a great experience with this medical office. They got me in as a new patient within a few hours. Very professional and friendly, would highly recommend! read more

Dr C is a great doctors as the office staff are horrible! Will NOT provide customer support as they want me to call their billing department in Memphis in asking if my insurance is covered since office staff made a error in January in not checking this before and had a large out of service bill. Changed insurance today and asking them to check, they advised me to call their billing department. Why am I calling your internal department and not you, I'm your customer! I pay for my insurance which allows you to have a job... read more

Dr Weintraub and his staff are extremely nice, every year the Prior Auth nurse Jessica works hard to get my drug approved, she's so nice and does such a great job! Keep up the great work! read more

I have been going to Urology Associates Medical Group and Dr. Weintraub for 20 years. Dr. Weintraub is kind, knowledgeable, and collaborative; everything you'd want in a doctor. I have a rare genetic condition and Dr. Weintraub has done everything possible to help me manage the condition and learn more about it. The staff is friendly, organized, and helpful. The new location is great, too! read more

As the reviews indicate, I feel this place does not know what they are doing. Upon my first visit I explained my issues, had been to the ER once with testicular pain. They did an ultrasound and sent me home with ibuprofen and told me to wait it out. With intense testicular pain no one wants to be told they have to wait and that the doctor can't explain the pain. When I had to go to the ER again two days later for severe pain I had an ultrasound done which contradicted the one I had at Urology Associates. I came back two weeks later for my follow up and again was told sorry to hear of your pain, keep taking your ibuprofen and wait another two weeks. the even refused to do another ultrasound to compare to the first one. When I asked for someone to go over my ultrasound images with me they got irritated, gave me a bit of eye roll attitude and then pulled me out of the exam room for me to go back to the waiting room while they "find my images" - the PA even said, "I don't know where your images are.. I can look..." and then walked out of the room as I was still talking. They never reviewed the original images with me in the first place so I'm surprised they're irritated. In fact I overheard someone ask the doctor if he wanted to see me and he said no. They have thin walls. This visit I handed the PA the MRI images I received and she left the room, I heard her see another patient and then maybe 5 minutes later came in saying she didn't see anything but they don't have the proper equipment to review it. I understand a radiologist has the specialty in this case but I just had questions about specific things I saw in the images - It's quite frustrating. I personally believe you do not want to trust your health to this place, but that's my experience. Your mileage may vary. The people at the front desk were kind and the technician was understanding of my frustration so I can't be upset with the way the tech handled my frustration, I'm just looking for some kind of explanation of why my pain is there when they told me what they saw shouldn't cause pain. Is it unreasonable for me to request they look deeper? I was concerned of a parasitic infection given sensations I've felt. But say that to any doctor in the United States and they act like you're crazy. They said I must have watched too much "monsters inside me" -- well hey, the producers of that show had enough actual cases to stay on the air for many seasons so maybe they should start listening. The PA did return to the room with a printout of some of the images from the original ultrasound and loosely explained what they showed so I'm appreciative of that, it just wasn't very informative. In the long run I was told to take ibuprofen and take warm baths and wait another 2 weeks in pain. In short, unless you'd like to gamble with your treatment and be confused with results, I would personally recommend you go elsewhere. I am still searching for answers to my pain. read more

I saw Dr. Weintraub a few years back for an issue that was handled beautifully. I went back this year for a kidney stone issue. My insurance had changed, but this office was in my medical group, which was with my insurance, so didn't think there'd be a problem. Even though the receptionist took my new insurance card and a CO-PAY, she never checked to see if the insurance company handled this office; it didn't and I received a huge bill for a single visit. This office USED TO BE WITH MY INSURANCE, but dropped out without notifying me or the rest of the medical group. When I called the office to see if I could at least get a "not insurance covered price" no one could be bothered to help me. They insisted I could only talk to their billing office in Tennessee. I know the price they charged my insurance last time was way inflated and I know they settled with the company for a substantially lower payment, but they wouldn't help me at all. Very non-caring about their patients, the only focus of the office is money. Found a much better office a short distance away where the entire office goes overboard to help the patients and doesn't treat them like cash cows. Very, very unprofessional office. read more

What follow up??? Time and time again I have to call and follow up because they tend to not return calls. They dont follow up in any way what so ever until you call them over and over. I'm not impressed with this doctors office. I had to call the insurance to find out why my medication was denied. To find out they didnt order the tests in the correct order. I wanted the medication for my trip. I called more then a week and a half. I got no response as to where my medication coverage standing. My trip is tomorrow and I won't have any chance to do anything about this for a few weeks. I'm quite fed up with how these people deal with me. I have had several times where I have been rescheduled because the doctor was in surgery. I took time off to see him. Another time I was told I could see the PA. The PA was stupid and wanted me to spoon feed him all the information on the chart. He was clueless. If this confines continues I will find a new doctor soon as I get back from my trip. If your reading this looking for a doctor and are thinking wow that sucks. Find another doctor now. I have been waiting a most of the year for them to get their act togeather, its yet to happen. read more

For years I went to Urology Assoc - first I saw Dr. Weintraub which was good then years later I was given to Dr. Chandrasoma. He was fine and saw me through stones, issues, procedures and surgery. Luckily, I did not need him or them for a about 2 years but sadly I am in desperate now for surgery - and I called to make an appt. But they no longer take my insurance. Ok, I am willing to pay cash - I like and trust Chandrasoma enough for cash until she said you have to be a new patient...WHAT? We have been through much - I am not a new patient and I should not have to pay $500 to $800 for a first visit when I have been a patient since 1986 (on and off). And she said well that's our policy! I said, it's not like he isn't going to make a lot of money on me - but to cheat me out of 500 to 800 more is wrong. I am not a NEW patient. She said she would ask him if he would waive it and either he or she would call me back - shocker no one did! Money is more important to this group than patients! For that I would give a negative 100. They do not deserve any patients because we are not important the almighty buck is. Shame -I stood up for Chandrosoma recently when some others were not so thrilled with him - now I will go back and say they were right and not only that he is greedy and not patient oriented. Shame! Greedy doctors give all doctors a bad name. Shame! read more
