It is a pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Dr De La Peña…read more She has been my Dr for Five years. She is easy to talk to, listens and is an excellent Dr. I have had 2 occasions that required additional testing and referrals to specialists. Dr De La Peña makes those referrals. Those Drs have been excellent. These situations also require yearly follow ups. Dr De La Peña goes through the blood work and lab reports with me. She answers my questions and I have complete confidence in her. Whether it is my regular yearly visits or an unexpected virus she is there for me and that makes all the difference!

My wife and I inherited Dr. De La Pena when our physician changed to being a concierge provider…read more While we liked our previous physician, we like Doctor De LA Pena even more! We have even moved our adult children over to her. Combined with the 365 program, we feel as though we are receiving true concierge care. My 90+ year-old parents had expensive concierge care, and the care and attention that we receive from Dr. De La Pena is just as good, From the routine to crisis care, the attention and quality of care are outstanding. One example. I was regularly seeing two different podiatrists for problematic feet. I called Dr. De La Pena to complain about pain in my foot. She had me come in THE SAME DAY and helped pave the path to surgery that I ended up having two weeks later. Without her immediate care, I literally would have lost a foot. That was just one example of many. Great Doc!

Dr. Gounder is amazing! Never have an issue with anything. He truly does care about my wellbeing,…read moreand he's always going above and beyond to make sure that I'm getting the right treatment. Definitely hard to find in my years with previous MD. The staff is amazing as well. I'm really happy that I found this place.

I am not one to write a review but this place seems unorganized and a huge SCAM! for your money…read more It's disappointing because coming into the office the staff were so friendly. Jun 11 - i came in for my concerns and annual wellness check/blood draw. went to check out, i asked the receptionist lady if there was a copay and she said no. Jun 18 - follow up to review my test results, one test was missing so they drew my blood again. Went to check out and i asked the guy receptionist if i had a copay he said no. It didn't seem right so I double checked with him and the lady next to him said i do have a $30 copay (so i paid). After a week i called to check on my results cuz i didn't see anything posted on my online account and i was informed my doctor was out and that a doctor needed to review my results with me. They tried to schedule me in office but i asked if it can be a call cuz i didn't want to drive down again. June 27 - got the call from the doctor to review my results (still didn't get why i couldn't just get a copy of my results online, my old Sharp doctor would usually just have the results on my app.) About two weeks later (July 7) i receive a bill for $50(or so) so i called them and they advised that my insurance didn't cover my initial appointment and told me i'd have to reach out to my insurance in regards to my confusion so i did. it looks like the insurance and medical office settled something because the app showed i only owed $30 after a few weeks (July 28) so i paid for it. Aug. 8 i see another bill for 2 different dates for a total of $60 so i called again and the lady on the phone said it was for my first appointment (which i recently just paid for) and my video call (video call that shouldn't have even happened if they didn't mess up on one of my test results). They're literally charging me for everything even if it's a mistake on their end.

Concierge medicine has saved my husband's life…read more.. We have been seeing Dr Jordanides for about 2 1/2 years. My husband was very ill and coming from a nursing home that almost killed him. It was during this time we interviewed his PA (gosh we miss her so much) and his office manager, Brandon. The minute the nursing home doc came in and basically refused to give the correct medicine for his MRSA infection, Dr J's PA jumped up and corrected the nursing home doc. When the nursing home doc asked who she was; I said, our doctor! So that's how Dr J and his staff was hired. Dr J has answered my calls in the middle of the night when my hubby has been sick. He makes same day appointments. The appointments are an hour long. When caregiving for a spouse it can be difficult to care for yourself. I was so impressed with the care my husband received that I hired Dr J and his staff to help facilitate my health care. Thank you Brandon, Shelia, the new office gal (sorry I forget her name) and especially Dr J for your knowledge, patience, love and professionalism. I especially thank you for saving my husbands life! We love you guys.

We have been with Dr. Jordanides for 8 years. He is so caring for all our medical needs. I have…read morecalled him at different times and he is always there for me. It is important to have an experienced doctor. He takes the time to listen to me. I never feel rushed. His staff is knowledgeable, kind and always there to help you. I have a very complicated medical background yet I always feel secure with Dr. Jordanides. If I need a specialist, he refers me to the best. I needed a blood test and it was done in the office with no waiting in a lab. I really appreciate Dr. Jordanides and his staff.

Dr Grimm has been my primary care physician for over twenty years. Concerned, informed and caring.read more

Superficially, Dr. William Grimm is a kind and compassionate man, unfortunately he is an…read moreincompetent medical practitioner and is currently completely overwhelmed by the ongoing COVID pandemic. Let me elaborate. Both my wife and I are previous patients of Dr. Grimm. We paid thousands of dollars just to be able to have him as our GP and were excited to have a "concierge doctor." We were sadly duped. Yes, if you wanted him to prescribe you some prescription cough syrup over the phone or recommend an overpriced "wellness consultant" then he is your man. However, if you are looking for an actual medical professional who knows his field and can provide relevant and constructive advice, look elsewhere. Now for the facts. Below are actual things Dr. Grimm (and/or his office) did: 1) Shut down all through COVID then went on vacation 2 weeks after office reopened. Why not take vacation when your office was closed for a year? We all kept paying... 2) Faked test results. No really, we paid out of pocket for (3) other tests to confirm that the test results my wife was given were completely fabricated. He "isn't sure what happened." That inspires confidence. 3) Lied about COVID deaths. Apparently this is a thing now. People use the tragedy of COVID to cover up for their own incompetence and its disgusting. Multiple times he claimed that "two of my patients died this week from COVID." When pressed, his response was "lots of people are dying from COVID!" True, but it doesn't help them or your patients by using that as an excuse to not do your job. 4) Provided absolutely no help in a fairly serious medical situation. Without getting into details, we needed some legitimate medical help for a life changing condition. (Hence tests above) Dr. Grimm's advice was to "google the test results" as he does not understand them. When pressed about how to interpret and use the $500 test results, he said "you should do what you have been doing if its working." Bottom Line: Don't get duped by this incompetent charlatan and his pretty office, he will not help you get well... but you will spend a lot of money!

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Dr. Young. My mom had been struggling with sudden…read moreand persistent skin rashes for weeks that spread throughout her entire body. The rashes were so itchy that it kept her up all night and made her so sleep deprived during the day. She visited both her primary care doctor and a dermatologist, but unfortunately, the medications they prescribed didn't bring any relief. That changed when she saw Dr. Young. From the moment he looked at her rashes, he seemed to know exactly what was going on. He diagnosed her quickly and confidently, and the treatment he prescribed worked almost immediately. The rashes improved significantly after the first night. My mom finally experienced relief after weeks of discomfort and frustration. Dr. Young's expertise, attentiveness, and quick action made a world of difference. We're so thankful for his care and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate physician.

Best doctor around!!! My mom had her uterus removed years ago, so now when she uses the restroom…read moreshe has to use a catheter. She struggles sometimes using that which leads to her having constant UTI's where she is in unbearable pain. When that happens, we have to take her to either Urgent Care or ER just to get her prescribed antibiotics which will take hours to wait. In this situation we were out of town, but had such a wonderful experience in this office. Dr. Young & his staff was so helpful & catering to my mom & I. We are looking forward to have Dr. Young become our primary care doctor now as he is also able to refill my mom's prescription without the long wait & with a sense of urgency.

I have been under the care of Dr. Unger since moving here in 2019. There are no words to describe…read morehow much this man, and his office staff, have changed my life. You see, there are those like myself whose predicament is one where a Dr's proficiency, and humanity is the key distinguishing factor between a life of suffering or a sustained quality of life- I am so blessed. I have a real support system. My review is for those who like myself are looking for help; I have never had any other doctor like Dr. Unger. He has far exceeded my expectations- and I live a quality life I never imagined. Thank you to his wife, and office manager, Lisa, and to Layla, they are amazing- the whole office!!!!!

I am writing this review, not as a patient of Dr. Unger but has a colleague in medicine. I am a…read morephysician as well who has been in medicine for 13 years. I have worked and been educated in 7 large institutions across the United States working with professors of all walks of life. I work as a consultant with Dr. Unger and interact with him regularly but in a different sub-specialty. I know him to be one of the most caring and thorough clinicians I have ever met. His history, resume, expertise and personality are outstanding. He has gone out of his way to write to textbooks on the management of diabetes. I have met several people who have done this, none of them have the aptitude and kind personality that Dr. Unger has. When I receive a referral from him, I receive an informed history that is certainly the most thorough and relevant to the particular question we are aimed to ask of any available. I know many primary care physicians, Dr. Unger is the most interested and attentive of any I have met. Every referral comes with a detailed letter. When I receive referrals from other institutions and individuals, it is up to me to seek for further information and this is often done at a great time investment on my part. There have been instances in which I will call him without any foreknowledge, I will mention a patient's name and he will be able to recall, in detail, all recent events, labs, and other features of the patient without any reference to a medical chart. I don't know anyone who can do this. When I interact with others, I am invariably asked to hold momentarily while they search through their charts to receive a mental update. This isn't exactly a sign of poor performance for others, in fact is is reasonable, but the fact that Dr. Unger is able to accurately describe in many unprompted details the situation cannot be understated. I believe it is a reflection of his attention. It is not distracted, he has the appropriate energy in the right place. Needless to say he knows his patients very well, he interacts with them outside his clinic hours regularly, he always knows what I am doing for them as we work together. I have never met a primary care physician so exhaustively involved in a patient's medical care. When other patients come to my clinic expressing concern about their current primary care provider, Dr. Unger the first thought to come to mind. I have been through this experience many times. Inevitably I receive a telephone call from the patient I referred to him with very positive thoughts, the overwhelming majority are highly satisfied.
