The cardiologists always answer my questions and encourage me to continue taking care of myself. They are proactive in ordering needed tests Abbas procedures. I wouldn't be alive today without their help and support! I am quite satisfied with the career they provide and recommend them without hesitation.

I can't recommend UC Davis Health due to repeated delays, heavy bureaucracy, and the high…read moreout-of-pocket costs involved in getting timely care. I'm a patient of the cardiac electrophysiology/cath lab. This spring, I had a loop monitor implanted under my skin to track my heart rhythm. It was a straightforward procedure that took about 10 minutes--albeit surprisingly costly as I received a $3K bill after insurance. By fall, my condition had improved and I no longer needed the device. My physician ordered the removal in October. I was told the EP lab would contact me within a couple of weeks to schedule the procedure, but no one reached out. In November and December, I called at least five times to schedule this simple removal. Each time, I was told the nurse responsible for scheduling was in a meeting or out of the office, and that someone would call me back the next day. No one ever did. Because of these unexplained scheduling delays, the procedure will not be completed before the end of the year. My insurance resets at year-end, which means these delays will likely cost me several thousand dollars in additional, unavoidable out-of-pocket expenses. Two weeks ago, I contacted Patient Relations for help. I explained that scheduling the removal before year-end would save me thousands, and asked them to either fit me in for this quick procedure or confirm I wouldn't be personally charged since the hospital's delays pushed the procedure past the 2025 cutoff. I still haven't received a call back. The clinical staff at UC Davis have been professional and knowledgeable, and I have no complaints about the quality of care. But the administrative bureaucracy and lack of follow-through make accessing that care difficult and (in my case) unreasonably costly.

First, I would like to state that Dr. Kozina is just great. He rates 5 stars, but the front office…read moreis another story. After I got home from my Echo appointment, I remembered I forgot to bring with me my current results of my blood work for my file and for the doctor to review. I called the office when I got home and asked if I could mail the results in, but was informed that I had to bring them in to be scanned. I informed the person that the blood work was done at the 30th & Q Street Quest Lab, and asked if they were able to obtain the results from Quest. I was, again, informed I had to bring them in to the office to be scanned. Today, I personally brought the results of my blood work into the office and explained I was told over the phone to bring in the results so they could get scanned The person at the front desk stated she had to check with the doctor's assistant. When she returned she informed me I didn't need to bring in the results because they were already in the system. When she was telling me that, she made me feel like I was bothering her and that she was annoyed with me. I was only doing what I was instructed on the phone to do.

5 stars for the dr. But 3 stars for the office staff…read more Dr. O'Neil is awesome very knowledgeable and always makes me feel like he cares and wants me to feel better. However the office staff are often frazzled and unorganized. Probably because they have to work super hard with lots of competing priorities. But nonetheless, patients shouldn't have to wait on hold for 5 minutes, should be called to remind about appointments. Last time I called to check my appt., the girl said I had no appt. When I questioned her about it she transferred me to another person who said I did have an appt. Which is it.

Pain free at last thank you to Dr Roberto's discectomy procedure on my back! For six months I dealt…read morewith the most intense sciatica (from a ruptured L5/S1) imaginable and almost no sleep that entire time. I received a referral to Dr Roberto from a friend who's an anesthesiologist nurse who has seen a number of surgeons in the operating room. He reassured me that Dr Roberto was the best he's seen and whom he'd choose to be his surgeon if it were his back surgery. I met with Dr Roberto and immediately I had a great feel for him. He was patient and went over all my questions with me. After the consultation I knew I wanted him to be my surgeon but the only question was how long it would take to get on his calendar. He could see that I was in extreme pain and suffering quite severely. He then orchestrated a miracle by getting me on his calendar the following week and had an entire pre opp completed along with a new MRI in 3 business days! He even called me the day before surgery from his personal cell phone to see how I was doing and make sure I was doing ok and ready to go and if I had any questions. I felt so comforted by his call because I did have fear! The day of surgery the entire UC Davis team was incredible. Everyone was so kind and caring...from the admissions to the nurses. My surgery went extremely smooth and come to find out my herniation was an "extremely knarly and angry one"...it was clobbering all my nerve roots and nothing had any where to go. Post opp I was cared for very well and discharged the same day. No complications with the anesthesia or coming off of it and for the first time in six months I slept 9 hours that night! Praise God! Dr Roberto called me the next day to check on me and make sure I was doing well and see if I had any questions. I did have a few questions in which he answered for me and told me to give him a call anytime if anything else came to mind. Wow.,.what surgeon does that!?! Such great care all around and I can't praise Dr Roberto, his team, and all of UC Davis Spine center and the hospital enough. Thank you for giving me my life back!

Dr. Aryana performed a cardiac ablation procedure on me approximately 4 years ago. It has been…read moresuccessful and I have not had a recurrence of atrial fibrillation. The procedure is not without risk of serious complications, however, atrial fibrillation comes with it's own set of risks. In my case, anti-coagulants had not worked as I had a TIA while in the therapeutic range. Since I did not want to risk a second brain clot, I elected the procedure. He did an excellent job, and I did not have any complications or injury secondary to the surgery. Dr. Aryana probably has more experience with ablation than any other MD in the Sacramento area. He came highly recommended by several MD's. Summary: The procedure is not a first line of treatment for atrial fibrillation, and atrial fibrillation can return after the procedure, but if you need it, he is the MD in Sacramento that would be the one that I would suggest to relatives if they needed it.
