I have been coming to Dr. De Silva for about four years now. She has always been helpful in wanting…read moreto help with whatever issue I was dealing with. She even showed great sympathy for a situation I was having great difficulty dealing with myself. I'm not too sure how there are reviews about how they've never met with the doctor or that she showed no regards to them because I have never experienced this myself and have dealt first hand with great professionalism by Dr. De Silva. Her staff is very friendly as well and is always very helpful and accommodating. The wait time can be a bit crazy but never has it been two hours. My more recent appointments have been in the 8-9 am hours and I've noticed that you get seen faster during this time. I recently started with their Skin Care Club and my first experience was amazing. The explanations of your skin troubles, which by the way my skin is pretty damn good :), was helpful in remedying them. The Esthetician listened to your concerns and made note of what she was seeing and what plan would work best. The facial received was relaxing and the environment put you in a zen state. Made me wonder why I don't pamper myself more often. I'm honestly an extremely happy patient/customer of Dr. De Silva and her medical group and just learned her husband also does acupuncture. I'm glad there are so many choices they cover so you're not having to go from doctors office to doctors office. If you could be just a tad patient I can guarantee you'll be happy with the staff, Dr. De Silva, the facilities and amenities that a little wait time 'ain't never hurt nobody'.

Where do I start? This has got to be the worst medical office staff in the AV!! I haven't even been…read morethere a year & they have dropped the ball with every single visit!! Beginning with the first visit, that I waited 3 months for, I was not on their schedule!! Thankfully, one of the staff members remembered scheduling me, however, I waited 2 hours while they "worked me in". They have dropped the ball on prescriptions & lab orders EVERY SINGLE VISIT!! The most recent error was sending the wrong rx to the pharmacy, which cost me $100. Unacceptable the way they rush, assume & quick to give out the wrong info. Dr. DeSilva is wonderful, but once you leave the treatment room after talking with her, nothing gets done!! I've had to repeatedly ask for lab orders & rx's to be sent out. In addition, they failed to update orders in the system. How embarrassing that the Dr has to call the pharmacy to see what the last dosage was because her staff failed to update the chart. Complaints to management & Dr DeSilva were a total waste of time, nothing has improved, it just gets worse!! Moving on to where patient care matters & I'm taking my husband with me!

Dr K Kumar is the best Dr I've ever had. Advanced Imaging told me I had cancer he told me I do not…read morehave cancer there is no cancer I took another test and just as he said I have no cancer he's the smartest Dr I know he knows exactly what he's talking about he's very nice to the patient very understanding. I wouldn't give him up for the world

This "doctor" and his staff are the worst I have ever encountered in my almost 60 years of life…read more Lets start with the office staff, impossible to even get through to the office over the phone, phone service would not work for several hours on random days, would get hung up on by office staff after being on hold for over 20 minutes. Would be promised a call back which was never received. There is no option to leave a voicemail message. Had to work harder than ever to get them to complete my disability paperwork which my livelihood (mortgage, bills, food) depended on. Was then charged money to complete this paperwork which I've never heard of in my life at any other medical office. Now, lets move on to review the doctor. Doctor prescribed me expensive medications which turns out I did not even need. After receiving a free trial of this expensive medication and telling them I could no longer afford, the staff suggested my caregiver use HER insurance to get it for me, how shady is that?? I started receiving ointments and medications via mail which I never signed up for either. For some reason even though Kumar was the doctor I would see, my disability paperwork was completed by a Dr. Martinez which I've never even met, why is this? Does Kumar even have a license to practice anymore? After suffering through all this I google to find out he has done very many shady things, so I would not be surprised if he was no longer allowed to practice and I really don't think he should be. Avoid this doctor at all costs.

As a PCP I found her rude, unprofessional, and dangerously haphazard with healthcare…read more I got a bad feeling when I came to my first appointment visibly injured--bruises, scabs, and cuts on my legs/arms/hands--and she didn't comment on it at all. It was due to a nasty fall, not serious, but I thought it odd that Dr Motlagh didn't seem to notice or show any curiosity/ concern. Not a dealbreaker, but she was one red flag after another after that. Also, as a new patient, she makes you sign a form waiving a right to legal action, forcing you through arbitration if she commits medical malpractice. She overbooks and under-serves her patients. When I asked about it, the nurse told me a wait of 30-60 minutes was STANDARD. Sure, that's happened sometimes in past clinics due to the dr giving each patient careful time and attention on their care...but she does not. My time with her felt like she was rushing me out the door. Other doctors will apologize for even a 15 minute wait--after a 45 minute long wait, Dr. Motlagh told me "If you don't like it, you can leave." I definitely felt like I was being milked for as much money as the practice could get, and not just overbooking more patients than she can handle. It's crazy that office policy is to book you to come to a follow-up appointment (with a copay charge, of course) just to go over lab results before you even get those labs done; every doctor I've ever had will email or call with the results; followup appointments are only for if something serious is found in the labs. Being kept waiting almost an hour for that ten-minute appointment is also very unprofessional. The office also made several mistakes with my healthcare, including not knowing why I was in the office, not consulting the info I provided about the medications I was taking when prescribing me something new, and rushing me to the point that I had to chase the doctor down in the hallway just to get her to answer a question about my health. I'm not surprised--she seems so rushed and behind that I don't have confidence she's taking the time to treat patients right. I've never had a doctor where I felt I had to advocate so hard just to get routine healthcare done right. While her bedside manner can be nice at first, she gets very mean-girl energy the minute you express an issue with anything she says or does. Her language and tone were shockingly dismissive. The rest of the staff is okay, though clearly overworked. I would literally rather drive to Santa Clarita or even LA to see a halfway decent doctor than go to Dr. Motlagh's ever again.

Dr. Motlagh is an outstanding doctor who truly cares about her patients. My father absolutely…read moretrusts her and always feels well cared for at every visit. To those claiming she's "only about the money"--that couldn't be further from the truth. The reality is that insurance companies often reimburse physicians far less than they deserve. Despite this, Dr. Motlagh goes above and beyond. I've never seen a primary care doctor spend as much time with patients as she does. Most doctors are in and out in 5-10 minutes--she takes the time to listen and treat each person with compassion and respect. Like all responsible physicians, Dr. Motlagh has to follow strict guidelines from the DEA and medical boards. In many cases, she's required to see patients in person before prescribing certain medications--that's not her choice, it's the law. There's a lot that happens behind the scenes in healthcare that patients may not be aware of. But those processes are in place to protect us and ensure we receive safe, quality care.
