Del Rey MD - Immediately post-op

Just had my last post-op follow up (11 weeks) and I still have nothing but amazing things to say…read moreabout the entire staff that works for Del Rey MD. I truly wish that every avenue of medical care had people like they do here. From my procedure until now, I have experienced 0 pain. My nose is just about completely healed and the difference in my breathing and sleeping quality is night and day. I can't imagine having gone the rest of my life breathing the way that I was. Post-op check ins over the weeks consisted of: checking out my healing through the little nasal camera, an allergy patch test, suggestions to keep my turbinates from growing in size again, reassurance that everything was healing great, etc. I'm not sure if I will ever have a reason to come back, but I will 100% be recommending Del Rey MD for those in need of an ENT. Thank you again, and especially to Lauryn, for everything!

I booked a next day appointment with Dr. Alison Ochoa, PA through Zocdoc due to some ear pain. I…read moredon't love visiting any type of medical office to be honest and generally get anxious, but Dr. Ochoa was super friendly and calming. She talked me through everything and was able to get me on a treatment plan to support me. I felt like she had a great bedside manner and actually listens to her patients which is not always the case with medical professionals. Offices were super clean. Only downfall is you have to pay for parking.

This review is long overdue. Due to a traumatic experience it has taken me almost 4 years to write…read more In September 2020 Dr. Hurvitz repaired our son's face at just a few hours old. Dr. Hurvitz is a wonderful surgeon and human being. My newborn baby was cut from eye to ear during a crash c-section. 3 plastics surgeons turned down the repair because they felt they weren't skilled enough due to how deep the cut was and the proximity to nerves, his eye, his ear, muscles, the age of the newborn and other various factors. They weren't sure if my son would be able to feed, or use his eye. One surgeon called Dr. Hurvitz in to the hospital for a consultation. Thank God Dr. Hurvitz agreed to come in and do the surgery. He was off, and at home with his family. His team kept my baby alive when he had to be intubated and struggled to breathe (he was hours old and had been exposed to many drugs during the crash c-section because they couldn't get me numb). Finally, at almost midnight I got to meet my son after 8 hours. He was perfect. His incision/ scar was minimal. It's hardly noticeable now, almost 4 years later. Sometimes when his face turns red I can see a faint white line. It was so big, so complicated and so deep, and now it's a tiny paper thin line. The stitching was beautifully done. Most importantly He was able to nurse, and use his eye, he had no issues opening or closing it. Dr. Hurvitz repaired the muscle, nerves and incision perfectly. His office staff are also wonderful people. They patiently worked with me on insurance and payment. They answered every email, and call. They are a Wonderful group of ladies. Dr. Hurvitz bedside manner when I met him and his assistant put me at ease. I don't remember what he said, but how he made me feel. He cared. He was funny. And he's absolutely the best surgeon. Thank you Dr. Hurvitz. You were one of the few good things that happened to us during that horrible experience. We thank God for you every time we look at our son's face. He's gorgeous and healthy. The scar is minimal and most people don't even notice it. I would absolutely trust and recommend Dr. Hurvitz.

Absolutely amazing experience. Thank you for holiday gift! I am so happy…read more I truly appreciate friendly staff, clean environment and overall experience.

I waited several weeks for the appointment, so I was well prepared. I asked for the 8 page forms…read moreto be mailed to me, as I have Macular Degeneration and need my Braille tools at home. The forms were delayed so I made a special trip to the office to collect them. The office was closed on a Friday. Finally when the forms came I tried to fill them out the best I could with my failing eyesight. I do well in typing, so I wrote a one page letter explaining my history. Dr. Willner did not want to know anything about my health and had a very rude attitude, bragging about his training. His laptop was the only important thing, not me, the patient. He did not like me, an 93 year old woman, and he let it be known. He made a sarcastic remark to his girl Claudia when her gave instruction for a future appointment. He did not say good-bye to me, but gave me a dirty look. I cancelled the appointment.

Sat with me…read moreto explain my options and when I decided what I wanted to do he explained how the surgery was performed and want the possible complications could be. I was in the hospital for 3 days and after that was able to get my staples and stitches out 10 days later. Everyone from the hospital staff to anyone that I talk to about Dr. Willner can't say enough good things about him. I was very nervous before the surgery and the staff at Long Beach Memorial said I was in the best of hands....put me at ease. My mass turned out to be cancer and Dr. Willner's follow-up has been remarkable. I can't say enough great things about him and I would recommend him to anyone that needs a great dr or surgeon. My experience with his staff is also great. They are very friendly and welcoming when you enter the office. If you have to wait a little bit I don't mind because I know I'm getting the best care possible.

One of the horrible decision was walking to this office. I went to urgent care for my ear and they…read moresuggested to see an ENT. It was Friday so i decided to check with Zoc Doc. I saw this Dr name with full availability...I took my appointment for 2:15 while it was too far for me but I decided to give a shot...I've never call back the office but after reading all the bad reviews later on in Yelp I decided to call them. The front desk told me he is not sure why I was able to book the meeting but there is no availability at 2:15 and if i want it, i should go at 1pm. I was surprised that they didnt even check when i took the appointment and if i drive 40+ miles in Friday which all that traffic they were going to reject me!!! Upon arrival, they gave me a ipad with all weird questions that it wasnt related to my situation and when i asked i only came here for my ear check up and rven i dont hsve pain anything he sais then check 0 for pain even its unrelated like its about your sinuses snd etc...The appointment got more interesting that wothout even explanation they directed me to CT scan room. I felt very uncomfortable and i said i just came here for a simple check up...Why this CT for! They told me its their procedure! I said but dr even didnt talk to me to know what is the reason i walked in to the office today and he still was pushing me. And i said no. Then, they put many tools in my ear and the most funny part no one told me ill get checked by PA. There was available PA close by my house and the only reason i drove by to see ENT. They already half of the procedures that i didnt need it! I told them i was in urgent care and they already washed my ear with water and I'm only here to make sure there is no other problem! Because in urgent care they weren't able to go and see inside of the ear with camera! The PA brought the vacuum and started another procedure...i have the worst pain in my whole life! The procedure was to aggressive specially that i already had the cleaning water in the morning! I also asked if Dr Sigari is around they told me no he has many offices! Im still shocked..i feel frustrated and misled..I wished at least they told me there is no ENT in office and ill het evaluated by PA. I regret of my decision specially i didnt have pain at all and now barely i can move my face!

A HEADACHE. They have sent me two bills: one for over $1,200 and now one over $200 after I had a…read moreshort visit where the secretaries ignored me for several minutes as I was standing at the counter as I guess calls to the office get priority more than the patient in front of them. I have full coverage insurance, so these charges were not explained to me and now I have to follow up again about these charges. I will not be coming back.
