After two years of office visits and numerous medication to treat nausea and migraines that didn't work I was told to use OTC meds for the migraines. The loss of 38 pounds over 4 months wasn't taken as a symptom of anything related and the Dr actually asked me if I seriously believed the head pain was affecting my stomach in a dismissive manner. At the last office visit I demanded to stop treating symptoms only and to see specialists to find the root cause. I took two months for her, the doctor, to give me a referral to the neurologist. Luckily the neurologist got me in with-in two weeks and discovered a huge brain tumor, that left only two weeks longer would have been fatal. read more

Ok, the doctor I saw, was GREAT. When I was in the hospital the nurses were great. But they told me they had heard of the "battle axe nurse" at Eureka Internal Medicine. I guess lots f patients complain about her. UH, HELLO, then hey DOC, get a new nurse would ya? get a clue here! Otherwise, the doc was great and I am fine, sort-of, nothing life threatening, just life altering! Cheers read more

Called these people at 9am and spoke with the medical assistance who promised to get with the doctor and get back to me with adequate medication answers. It is now 5:15pm and the office is closed. No call back again. They issue a medication and then hope it works and will see you in 30 days to discuss the 30 days you have spent in misery because their medication prescribed on your first visit, did not work. read more

The Nurses were right there caring, quick & efficient - The doctors, well doctors are always doctors Prima-Donnas, they think they are gods (News Flash: you're NOT - Get real Doc's)....So I NEVER expect much from them anyway, or anywhere, at any medical facility...So i don't even consider them in a review or anything else. But once again, the Nurses were sweet, concerned & kind. They called me back to update my appointment and made sure all was well with me - I must say Eureka internal medicine was fast convenient with no messing around - I like that & recommend them to all Thanks & appreciate the professionalism by all the staff (except the one big one, who yells out names) Overall a good experience as one can expect when not feeling well. I always believe and have experienced......One receives what one puts out....YOU make the effort to be friendly and polite and it will return back to you many times over.... read more

additional circumstances have led me to note that this is a second-rate money-grab joint with a very low ethical standard. After 12 years with these people I had an occasion to out of nowhere develop an ulcer-lookin sore on my leg. I called to get in to see my Dr and some new fool receptionist (intern?) said 'it'll be three weeks, at least.' I told her I already had an appointment in three and a half weeks, but this looked serious, and I wanted a professional opinion on what I should do-something TODAY, or later. I also told her I had been there for years, and I knew that they held a few 15 minute 'emergency slots.' (Not that they would know what to do if an emergency walked in, other than say go to the ER.) So, she repeated 'it'll be at least three weeks!' I said to her, what if I come over there and sit on the end of your desk until my Dr walks by, and then wave him down? I just want him to tell me 'go to a wound ctr, go the the ER, put some cream on it, any bit of guidance would have been fine.' Then I hung up on the clown. About 2-3 weeks later I received a letter terminating services with their offices. This was in 2015. I (this year) Contacted St Joes (who now runs their outfit, along with a bunch of other service providers), and issued a complaint. A few weeks later, a man called and said it was under consideration, and he would get back to me. End of story, they denied the appeal. There are remaining grounds on which to engage in litigation, and I'm still considering it. read more

Dr Selcer was my father's doctor for 7 years. Approximately 6 months ago my father went to see him complaining of shoulder and back pain. He prescribed muscle relaxers and pain meds and diagnosed it "tendonitis". The medication did nothing for the severe pain. My father went to a chiropractor and a physical therapist, both of whom wanted to know where the image (either x-ray or MRI) of his back was. I encouraged on my weekly calls to him to get an image. None of these treatments helped and my father got worse. A wheelchair was ordered because he could barely walk the pain was so intense. The pain meds were switched to valium. Still no picture. Dr Selcer siad there was no need for one because that only looked at bones and this was "tendonitis". My father went from doing 3 crossword puzzles a day and reading a book every day or two to none of that. And still no image. He was a life long smoker yet Selcer didn't seem to think it was important to have an image. One month ago I got a call at 5 in the morning from my father's companion that he had fallen and she couldn't get him up the pain was too excruciating and she was calling an ambulance. In the ER an x-ray was finally taken of his shoulder and the masses on his lungs and bones were there plain as day. My father died about 10 days after his trip to ER. He suffered horribly for at least 5 months because of DR Selcer's GROSS NEGLIGENCE and refusal to get an image which is standard procedure for persistent back pain and shoulder pain. If he is your doctor RUN as fast you can away from him and tell anyone you care about to avoid his services. read more

I was referred here for treatment of cancer. I have never had anything but positive experiences. From the receptionist to the nurses and doctors I received kindness, compassion and support. Dr. Suryadevara is wonderful, and her assistant Sharon is the kindest most compassionate woman I have ever met. I highly recommend Eureka Internal Medicine. read more

I went into EIM to see Petra Kuhfahl, MD. I made an apt for a severe sore throat, cough, ear ache/stuffiness. I came out with a DX of allergies. WTF??? I told her that I disagreed with her, but she told me that my past of sinus infections are related to allergies. Which they weren't per Dr. Aronson who I saw for them. I told her that my symptoms do not relate to the sinus infection or allergy symptoms. She would not change her mind an prescribed my Nasonex. I then went to a whole new facility the next day where I was DX with an ear infection, extreme cough. I was given antibiotics for them and cough syrup. Unfortunately, my sore throat was viral, so there was nothing I could get for that. They told me that allergies was not the cause and that Dr. Kuhfahl was not correct with the DX she gave and they laughed. DR. Kuhfahl is a joke and needs to DX with the symptoms in front of her not what is from the past. read more

Okay so I am updating because I FINALLY got my appointment. If I had the money and time to go see a specialist in the bay area I would have done that at the drop of a dime because I called some bay GI specialists and they were able to get me in the same week! The office here is very unorganized and they need extra help. I had to schedule an appointment to schedule an appointment! I almost missed my scheduling time and they told me if I couldn't make my appointment to schedule my procedure that I would have to wait a month before I could schedule my procedure. When I made it in to schedule my procedure luckily someone had cancelled, or else I would have had to wait 2 more months. Needless to say, someone in pain regarding their stomach should not have to wait this long! It has taken 7 months for me to get to the point where I could actually see a specialist and schedule and I am truly disappointed. My specialist is nice, but that still doesn't make up for this year that I have been in pain. read more

Consistently painless blood draws. What more could you ask for?
