The nurse & PA explained everything& were straight to the point. Gave my meds& told me to get some rest! The only thing i didn't like was how confusing it was to get there. Parked in the structure, hopped on the elevator to the 1st floor, walked across &went up the elevators to the 6th floor. It is all the way to the end of the building.

The IWC Primary Care Center was referred to me by Astiva my medical insurance company. One of their medical assistants her name is Margaret she had given me a CBC Test called a Complete Blood Count this blood test consisted testing my Glucose Levels, Kidneys Level, BUN Level, White Blood Cell Count, Potassium Level, Heart, and other factors to see if my Blood Pressure Levels are normal. I also had to take a Urine Test that was included in this CBC Test My Blood Pressure was kind of at a higher rate it was 154/71. That's high for myself because my blood pressure is always a much lower range like 120/60. The medical assistant her name is Ranabi said my Blood Pressure was at a higher rate because I have a DVT in my right leg and my current medical condition has caused my blood pressure to rise to an increased rate. I also arrived 15 minutes early to this IWC Primary Care Office that date. I was given 8 pages of Intake Forms for me to complete because I am their new patient. I was introduced to their Office Manager he was very friendly and helpful to me. His job is to organize their medical office staff and make sure the patients family stays together in one exam room. The IWC Primary Care Center atmosphere was very welcoming and comfortable. Their air conditioning system was turned on and was at a comfortable level. There is a large gray couch in their waiting room and 8 padded and comfortable arm chairs in their lobby for their patients. For my first visit, I received very friendly and helpful advice from their front office medical assistant her name is Magdelina. The quality of my medical care is excellent.

This office has treated me like a criminal trying to evade responsibility and it feels extremely…read moredehumanizing. I had done lab work earlier in the year and since my practitioner never reached out to me, I scheduled a phone appt to review my labs. My phone appointment was scheduled for Friday, 7/24. When the appt came, I was blindsided by a woman on the phone telling me that I had an outstanding with the office for visits dating back to September of 2025. I asked why I had never received a single invoice and was not given a clear answer. I was then transferred to a man who stated that he represented the billing department and I asked him the same questions about never receiving an invoice (not by mail, email or the patient portal), why the office would hit me with a bill for over $300 with services from 10 months ago when I had never received a single invoice up to this point. He did not give a clear answer but stated instead that it was due to my insurance deductible. I completely understand how my insurance works because I've had it for years with no changes. He stated that as a courtesy, he could "settle" my bill for $150. I had no idea that I was being asked to settle a debt, when all of sudden it seemed that I was on the phone with a debt collection agency. He then asked me if I could give him the money right there over the phone. This was a medical appointment that never happened, by the way. I never spoke to my practitioner Friday and told the man on the phone that I needed to start work after spending 20 minutes discussing an outdated bill that I didn't know existed. I rescheduled my appointment for Monday because I had run out of time after being asked to send money to someone over the phone without ever viewing a medical invoice from this office. Monday's appointment time came and I received a phone call from a woman stating that I needed to give her $150 over the phone immediately and that care would be withheld until I paid this bill. I started asking questions again, such as why am I being treated like a delinquent debtor over a bill that has only been in existence for one business day? I explained that I would like time to review my invoice and take a look at my HSA account to make sure I had the funds available. She then transferred me back to the man from Friday who confirmed that I would be withheld medical care until I paid the bill. He reminded me that he was nice enough to work with me and settle my debt for $150 (something I never asked for) and then asked if I would be able to pay anything at all so that the practitioner could speak to me. I asked "is she refusing to speak with me until I pay you?" He confirmed. I ended the call by stating that I would pay my bill and would most likely be needing to find a new primary care provider as well.

Pro: SYHC Staff…read more Care Con: Not closer I have been a patient under SYHC for over a decade. These practitioners and team are as dedicated to your health as you are. El Cajon office is clean, easy to find, and all that you need it to be. Just like most SYHC locations, they offer services such as: Dental Chiropractor(not at all) PCP(Primary Care Physician) Etc.. I wholeheartedly recommend San Ysidro Health Center: El Cajon if you need health assistance, not Emergency.
