2 yrs later-MRA UCSD confirms a venous insufficiency, pelvic congestion disorder.
Michan C.

May-Thurner, Compressed Common Iliac Vein syndromes & pelvic venous congestion DO exist & should be considered if increasing pain symptoms occur with multiple fibroids or if severe pain occurs in the pelvis & there are no specific etiologies. Borrego Women's Health with Dr. Robert Segnit was a bad experience! He was "polite" enough but the appt was a total waste of time! He was snarky with me at the end & did NOT want to consider a pelvic congestion or venous issue as a source of chromic pelvic pain with the fibroids. 2 years later I am now at UCSD about to get UAE for fibroids & will probably need a STENT in the Left common Iliac vein. It took an MRA to diagnose. Over the last 2 yrs pelvic pain increased & pain/pressure in left leg veins increased~Generally an unwell feeling in the entire body. Thankfully UCSD gyno & UCSD IR listened to me & UCSD IR doc was an angel! No ego & a genuinely compassionate doc willing to explore further (b/c gyno also threw out a possible Endometriosis dx on the table) Dr. Robert Segnit (gyno) who was the colleague of Dr. Tracie Davis, is apparently retired now. Initially I wanted to see her, but she was booked, so I went with him. Maybe if I had seen the female doc she would've listened to me? But I doubt it b/c none of my other docs listened. I think male gynos & male IR for UAE are bad & non-empathetic. Male docs don't have the anatomy & cannot comprehend the severe & deep pain in the pelvis or the annoyance of bladder incontinence from bulky fibroid uterus. ***I had 2 older male docs who basically misdiagnosed me & had ZERO clue where the pain & pressure were coming from & did NOTHING for me to try to figure out WHY I was suffering. The male IR doc was not at this clinic. He was at American Access Care (Dr. Rattner). Dr. Rattner was trying to tell me I didn't know the difference between uterine or ovarian pain & he kept interrupting me every time I said "pain in the uterus". I think these older make docs in their 60's or 70's are not up to speed or up to date with the current literature & diagnoses. May-Thurner & pelvic venous congestion DO exist & everything should be done for women to test for Iliac Vein compressions to rule that out. Some women may not be symptomatic, but for those of us who are symptomatic, we need the proper dx & tx!

Wanted to leave a 5-star Yelp review for East County Urgent Care. I had made a 12 pm appointment…read more(reservation) for Saturday, Jan.31 (for a Department of Transportation physical) via e-mail earlier during the week, and they were very cordial and responsive, which I appreciated a lot. I came in a bit early for my appointment (lots of free ample parking) and the person at the front desk was very cordial, friendly, professional, experienced, very helpful, and had me processed for the intake (filling out necessary forms, both on an iPad and paper), and then I provided a urine sample as required. The facilities are modern and up kept well. After payment (they accept insurance, credit card, cash), I went in for vital signs and then prepped to be seen by the doctor for my physical in a private exam room. The nurse or medical assistant that did my vital signs, eye exam, etc. and other preliminary tests was also highly cordial, friendly, professional, experienced, and very helpful. Soon, Dr. Carmen Carneiro came into the exam room and did my thorough and complete DOT physical, and she was super awesome and professional and experienced. She was able to answer any and all medical questions you had as well. After changing and going back to the lobby, I was given the required paperwork and checked out with the front desk. It's been a great and wonderful experience, and I would highly recommend East County Urgent Care for your DOT physicals, if needed, as well as other services. I would definitely be returning here every 2 years (as required for my CDL license). Thank you so much!

This is the second visit I have done here. One for myself and now for my daughter. Both times were…read morewalk in and was seen within 45 minutes. I came back because I really liked the Dr. she's very communicative and she actually listens. Very important for a healthcare provider. To be heard. She makes sure she's checks all boxes if with symptoms. She really cares. I drive 20 minutes to come to this urgent care.

This was my first time in urgent care ever. The place was clean, it looked new and staff was…read morefriendly. It's nice that you have the option to do a video call, make an appointment or just a walk in. The visit was straightforward (I had a sore throat, tonsil and ears were hurting). I did asked how long was for a walk in and said about an hour or more then I asked for appointments she sad also about an hour "but hopefully less" which made me think what was the point of making an appointment. I was there for an hour BUT from check in to discharged.... sooo it was not so bad but I was expected to wait to be seen after an hour when she said that. I hope they would give priority to their appointments and see them in a timely manner. Another thing ... I understand that for me it worked out because it was a sore throat but I was still expecting to physically see a physician. I wanted to go in person so they can check me in person, touch my neck, parotid glands, check my ears and check my throat but instead I was talking to the physician through a screen. If I knew that was going to be the case I would have just scheduled a video call and waited comfortably in my house. Talking to the physician took 5min, not super friendly but like I said maybe my case was straightforward. Everyone else was super friendly and explained everything. They did explain they do have a physician there but it depends on patients needs if they need to see them physically or it could be something over the video call so that is helping everyone kinda move faster but still... waiting time for appointments are an hour. Not cool Overall I would go back to Marque urgent care and I would recommend it. Hopefully they can improve their waiting times.

This place needs to work on their price transparency and follow up! I came in for a wrist injury…read moreand was told the total was $160 with my insurance, which I paid for in person, but then weeks later I'm hit with another large bill in the mail afterwards! On top of that, they didn't give me the orthopedic referral that was promised and that I needed, so I had to pay an extra $80 for another separate appointment with my primary HCP. Marque Urgent Care had the opportunity to make my injury less stressful, and my pathway to healing easier, and they dropped the ball. I won't be back. Side note: the staff and physician were all very nice. And the facility is clean. But inaccurate pricing / unexpected charges are deal breakers :(

Literally made this account just to write about this experience. Nurse practitioner, Peter Tannous,…read moremay both sides of your pillow always be cold. I've visited this MinuteClinic several times for flu shots and TB tests, and while wait times can run longer than expected, I understand why. Between walk-ins, limited providers, and the unpredictable nature of healthcare, delays are sometimes unavoidable. This visit was no different. While waiting for my general medical exam, I noticed a steady stream of patients being checked in. At one point, an older couple at the front desk seemed to be having trouble navigating the walk-in process. Peter stepped out of his room repeatedly--at least five times--to help translate and explain the system to them. Despite his efforts, they seemed confused about how to proceed and would repeatedly approach the front whenever a name was called, even when it clearly wasn't theirs. By this point, I was about 10 minutes past my scheduled appointment, and the waiting room was getting busier. Peter calmly explained to the couple that he could only perform the specific TB test they wanted to sign up for, while they were requesting multiple services that the MinuteClinic doesn't even offer. Shortly after, he called my name. As I walked up, I overheard other patients expressing frustration about the wait, with some even canceling their appointments. Meanwhile, Peter just sighed and immediately returned to providing professional, attentive care. During my appointment, he was nothing but kind, focused, and respectful. I had forgotten some required forms for my exam, and he was incredibly understanding--allowing me to quickly run to my car to retrieve them. He also took the time to give me thoughtful advice about my future in nursing, which I truly appreciated. Unfortunately, the earlier couple continued to interrupt, knocking on the door multiple times during my visit. Each time, Peter had to step away to explain that he was with a patient, while they grew increasingly frustrated that he couldn't drop everything to assist them immediately. He apologized to me every time he paused, though I didn't mind. I could clearly see the situation he was managing. That experience alone was a powerful reminder of what our healthcare system is. In the single hour I was there, it felt like a full shift's worth of challenges. Patients don't get the care they genuinely need, incompetent people don't do their research, and providers that ARE present become ill-equipped punching bags. It is a constant cycle. TLDR: The minute clinic here is a disaster. I agree with other reviews that it is understaffed and often overbooked (walk-ins are not as simple as they seem). Patients deserve timely, high-quality care, but it's also important to understand the system's limitations. IF YOU are standing there, signing up for a 10-minute TB test, as it was the only appointment available to make online, and then are SHOCKED when the only 1 NP working there tells you they cannot perform the 50-minute appointment you ACTUALLY wanted to have done in that 10-min slot, then YOU are the problem. Understaffed or not, it is the few entitled/ignorant people I see from time to time that cause the greatest disturbance in ANY healthcare clinic/hospital/pharmacy/you name it. Healthcare providers are humans too, who get overworked like the rest of us. They work under pressure, juggle multiple responsibilities, and still strive to give each patient the care they deserve. Before leaving a harsh review about "bad service," it's worth considering the bigger picture.

Every time I go to this minute clinic whoever is there always help and I've never had a bad…read moreexperience here but yesterday I had the best experience with the nurse practitioner Peter, he was so nice, professional and he went above and beyond to help me with everything I needed.

This review is for the Dental Clinic at this location…read more I had tooth issues for a very long time due to my neglect and failure to take care of my teeth. I decided to finally go get it taken care of. I was extremely scared with the cost and even the pain I would endure in order to fix my teeth. It didn't help that everyone I know told me that the procedures I needed would be extremely painful. I won't go into too much detail with the work I got done, but I was in and out of this clinic for all of 2019 and some parts of 2020. Yes it took that long to fix my teeth! But I am glad I got it done. Dr Gomez (Mirtha) made me feel at home from day 1. I became somewhat of a regular with my frequent visits and she remembered me each and every time I came back in. It made me feel extremely comfortable coming into a place that most people feared coming to. Her team was just as amazing as she was. The dental assistants were always gentle and kept me calm during the appointments. Now the most important part of all of this... was the care Dr Gomez gave me. Each procedure went smoother than I could imagine. The pain was very minimal and I believe that is in large part to how great a Dentist Dr Gomez is. I would recommend her to anyone I know. Her professionalism and quality of care is something I can't thank her enough for. As of today, my teeth feel amazing and I am no longer in pain. Its not longer a chore to eat food and I feel amazing! Please take care of your teeth if you can! And if you haven't, come have Dr Gomez fix them up! She's amazing!

CAUTION: MASSIVE review ahead!…read more Remember this: I am an extremely patient person. It takes a LOT out of me to get me extremely angry. I usually come here for a number of services, since I have a friend that's an earshot away from this location. A lot of the services they provide are at most decent. I get my bloodwork done, I just got my dental cleaning done not that far back, and that's proper: no complaints about that. But the two incidents, which has stretched out over the course of about five weeks, really, REALLY frosted my arse like an unusually bitter winter storm rushed thru coastal and inland San Diego. What I experienced at their Vision Clinic was a massive contentious problem to me. Let me explain. I come there as expected to set up a prescription order for two pairs of glasses: one paid by my insurance provider, the other out of pocket thanks to the kindness of my friend's heart. My additional pair cost them $140. While I wish I remembered her name to make things easier to figure out, name-dropping is pointless, and I'm sure there's some convoluted process that got it all jumbled up, and for no apparent reason at all. I recall, if my memory has not failed me at all, requiring that transitions should go to the Aviator-style glasses, whilst the light brown tint should be for the black frames. Okay, done-deal: she made sure to mark out the proper alignment for each pair I ordered, and hopefully had everything written out. A couple or so weeks have passed, I get an automated call telling me that they're ready for pick-up. So we went here, went to pick them up. I had noticed right off the bat that something wasn't right: my memory being fuzzy for some odd reason, I took them at first, but after some delegation with my friend, I went back to tell them that my specified needs for my prescriptions... WERE SWAPPED AROUND. After complaining to the guy at the front desk, who seemed pretty patient enough, the same lady who I told my prescription to rushed over to chide me about how that was apparently what I ordered. Still barely remembering what had transpired back then, I was frozen and frankly traumatised, as I am the person to usually NEVER INTENTIONALLY LIE TO PEOPLE. I would much rather punch myself in the nose than to purposefully manipulate someone like this, ESPECIALLY when this is my healthcare needed here. After too much back-and-forth, they took them back, and told us that we have ONE MORE CHANGE FOR FREE, which I do not recall seeing it ANYWHERE on paper about this. I came home extremely upset at feeling like I was an arsehole, and disappointed that I didn't get my prescription AT ALL. I later learned I was gaslit, and I was praying that she was just having a bad day. Whilst I was home, I was called to have my prescription order redone. Same lady who chided me up and decided allegedly ON HER OWN VOLITION "made sure" three times with me on what I wanted for my lenses. I had flubbed ONCE, accidentally saying to have the transitions and tint on the black frames, quickly then correcting myself and made sure to maintain what I had said the FIRST TIME. After she had clearly recalled what I said on the last time, I confirmed, and things were hunky-dory. Two or so weeks later, again, I come back. I sat there, extremely stressed out and highly pessimistic: an unusual thing I experience. I was actually having a sliver of hope. I was called up, was given my prescription. THEY PUT *BOTH* ON THE SAME LENSES, AND LEFT THE OTHER ONE COMPLETELY BLANK. I was enraged. I told him calmly that this is NOT what I ordered, confident that this time I knew EXACTLY what I told her. Sure enough, the same lady uttered "oh my God" in the most aggravated tone I've heard in my life, and rushed over again and STIFFLY chided to me that she made sure THREE TIMES that this was what I wanted. I argued with her that NO, it was NOT. She reluctantly (from my perspective) took them back in. I was sitting in the waiting room, absolutely pissed off about this obnoxious ordeal. I sat there stewing for what seemed to be 15 minutes until she came back out to call us up. She told us they can no longer fulfil any redos, and offered us a refund. No apologies for their obvious mistakes, by the way. Surprised, we accepted those terms and demanded a copy of my prescription. All was fulfiled, and we left with just the copy of my prescription, opting to never order frames from this clinic ever again. Keep in mind that had I paid out of pocket, which frankly I am not FLOODING with money at all, I fear my mood would have been a lot worse than that. $140 is NOT cheap for prescription lenses, especially if you're someone on SSI. Long story short: you are much better off ordering your prescription glasses from a proper optometrist. This was an extremely humiliating experience, and this was NEVER something I recall encountering almost at ALL in my life. And remember: I am an EXTREMELY PATIENT PERSON. It takes a LOT to get me extremely angry!
