I was a new patient of Dr. Rob Warwar for the first time after about 10 years without seeing an MD…read more I went in with complaints of backpain. Dr. warwar treated the immediate problem with cortizone as well as ordered xray imaging and physical therapy. During the initial visit, Dr. Warwar became concerned with my thyroid and the way that is was protruding from my neck. I had had a lump there since the last time I saw an MD and they said it was fine, so I forgot about it. With no symptoms, Dr. Warwar still decided I needed a biopsy after an Xray showed multiple growths. Turns out after following up with recommended Endocrinologist Dr. Westhoff I was diagnosed with Papillary thyroid cancer at 27 years old. With an early diagnosis I am able to remove the thyroid without much complication in the future other than a pill daily. Without Dr. Warwar, I truly believe this is something I would have not immediately, if ever, be worried about or even conscious of. Not only being my first consult with him, but with having a whole different issue bring me in, I am just impressed and more than grateful for what was potentially a life saving call. I will recommend Dr. Warwar to anyone I meet and continue to share this story because health CARE is so hard to come by now a days.

Dr Williams asked me if I took calcium/D3. I have NEVER been D3 deficient and started taking calcium with D3 in it in when 50 years old as Dexa scan said a bit of osteopenia which has changed little in 25 years. We simply answered Dr Williams questions and I asked her to check my husband's hearing. The scribe and Billing Mgr will write in anything they can (true or not) to charge you extra! It was all routine exam, eyes, ear, throat heart, lung, and breast exam for me. No internal exams. We will be changing doctors asap and refuse to pay extra fees for routine exams and to answer questions. We are healthy, exercise, eat right, and NOT overweight. We reported them to Aetna FRAUD dept! I notified Dr Williams. She will be retiring in 2 years she told me. AVOID THIS GROUP with offices located in Ventura and Oxnard.

Although the practice is said to provide patient specific/centered care. The recommendations are generalized and lack follow up.

You are not informed of the reason for the costs or explained about the availability of consultation with the provider. The health coach assigned is a messenger to the provider. Additional testing will be out of pocket such as labs. If your "goals" were not met you will have to pay an additional fee to continue or enroll in a membership. I do not recommend the practice. Please do not get in debt due to this practice that claims they provide functional health. The provider appeared to be more active on the social media account than the time that was spent with my patient care experience.

Dr Williams told me that because my daughter liked to spit out food it was "her flavor of autism"…read moreit was the first time she had ever met her and my daughter was 18 months old. My son is autistic. So therefor the assumption was made that obviously my daughter was too. Clearly she needs to go back to med school and learn diagnosis for autism does not take place until at minimum of age 3. Disgusting. This office also lacks competence to file simple paperwork with insurance, send prescriptions and just function in general. They require multiple phone calls to and half the time I need to explain to them what needs to be done and then call insurance for them.

Update: again, 1.5 hours before I actually saw the doctor…read more This time, he started with a few general health questions, including one regarding sexual activity. I said I was not currently sexually active. To which Dr. Chochinov responded, and I quote, "Why not? You don't have a boyfriend? You aren't interested?" If you're comfortable chatting about that with someone other than your gynecologist, or when you haven't come in for any sexual health issues, by all means, Chochinov is your guy. Next, I brought up the side effect of weight gain after a certain thyroid hormone left me with 10 extra stubborn pounds. I felt it relevant that Chochinov know about this, because it can indicate that my thyroid hormones are not balanced. Instead, his response, again verbatim: "Oh, you women are so particular about your bodies. Eat less." I am 5'7" and 126 pounds. Yes I am naturally thin, but no that is not my usual weight. Telling a patient to simply eat less seems dangerous, rude at best. As it turns out, my hormones were not balanced and yes I did need addition medication. But thank you for doubting me based on my gender. This is the quality of medical attention you will receive with Dr. Chochinov. You will wait up to 2 hours in the waiting or exam room, you will receive rude sexist comments, and if you're lucky, he'll strike up a conversation about your personal sexual preferences. Needless to say, I left in tears. Just because someone has medical knowledge or a degree DOES NOT make them a good doctor. I will not be returning.

We had to pick up our granddaughter and had 5 minutes to talk to the doctor by he time he came to the room. He was so rude! He said, oh I hear your in a hurry, so I'll make this quick. We didn't expect to wait for 1 1/2 hours to see him. My husband made an appointment in three months. I called 2 weeks before the appointment to get his medication refilled and was told the office was closed because they were moving. I was told to leave a message and they would call me back. I called 6 times and no one called me back. I did reach someone on the 6th call and told her I needed a refill before the appointment she was so rude and acted like I was putting her out. She told me they were really busy, has no records and I was better off waiting until the appointment to talk to the doctor. I explained that I needed it before and she told me they were really busy and I'd have to wait. I was never informed they moved. I only knew because of the call to get the refill. We had no address. I called the office at least 20 times the morning of the appointment to get the address. No one answered. I had to go to the old office and hope they had the new address on the door. They did, but it was a waste of my time and gas. We got to he new office and the door was locked. We went to another CMH office a few doors down and was told he doctor was not in today. Not sure why the rude girl on the phone didn't tell me there was no doctor in on the day I told her we had an appointment when I had called the week before. Lucky there was a PA in that saw my husband. We will never go back. I would not take my dog to see him. The doctor and his staff are so rude and don't seem to care about anyone but themselves.

But the staff up front has been filled with willfully incompetent people whose idiocy is only overshadowed by their huge egos. I have finally left and I would suggest for prospective customers to try elsewhere, otherwise, you are just opening yourself up to massive headaches. Dr. Bailey is well past retirement age and maybe the fact that he has an autonomous front office is proof that he should hang up his stethoscope and hit the links!

They are kind, knowledgeable, and supportive, but the front office and administrative side has been consistently frustrating. The administrative staff is disorganized and unprofessional. They frequently mix up appointment times, give conflicting information, and make even simple tasks feel unnecessarily difficult. They don't use email or an online portal to send updates, test results, or appointment confirmations, which makes it almost impossible to keep track of anything. Everything has to be done by phone, and the communication is often curt or dismissive. Another major frustration is that any time I need bloodwork, I have to schedule a completely separate appointment with a third-party lab instead of being able to do it in-office. This makes routine prenatal care far more inconvenient than it needs to be. I really wanted to have a good experience here, especially since the clinical care from the midwives has been positive, but the front-office management has caused so much stress and confusion that I'm choosing to switch practices. I hope they improve their administrative processes and communication in the future.
