    Dr. Ibrahim is the kindest and genuinely the nicest physician that I have ever seen! She really…read moretakes her time to explain everything to you, and you can tell that she really cares about the well being of her patients. I have had so many GI issues, and I switched from different gastroenterologists to another, and finally found Dr. Ibrahim and am really glad that my care was transferred to her. I usually never write reviews, however I was very thrilled with my visit. The staff is also exceptionally kind and are very efficient. I was dreading the idea of having a colonoscopy, but Dr. Ibrahim made what I thought was going to be a very painful and disturbing situation to something that I would not mind looking forward to. If you are looking to establish with a gastroenterologist, I highly recommend Dr. Ibrahim, she is truly the best.

    This was, without question, the worst medical experience of my life. After my colonoscopy, I was in…read moreunbearable abdominal pain, couldn't sit, eat, or sleep, and was severely constipated--symptoms I had never had before. Two days later, desperate for help, I went to see Dr. Dalia Ibrahim. Instead of showing any concern or providing answers, she dismissed my symptoms entirely and sent me out of her office with zero support or follow-up. I left feeling abandoned and uncared for at a time when I was terrified something was seriously wrong. What followed was a month of severe pain, ER visits, and multiple GI consultations. No one could explain what happened, and I was left to suffer on my own until the symptoms slowly faded. This experience was traumatic enough that I will never undergo another colonoscopy again. Based on how I was treated, I absolutely cannot recommend Dr. Ibrahim. In my opinion, she was dismissive, unprofessional, and showed a shocking lack of compassion when I needed medical care the most.

    Dr Donner was my doctor for years, at least 20. It was time for a colonoscopy so I called his…read moreoffice and left a message. They tell you they will get back to you within 48 hrs. After a week, I called and left another message even though they tell you Not to leave numerous messages. It has now been 3 weeks and no one ever returned my call. I have heard that people are going into the office and raising a fuss. I just changed doctors. I didn't want to but I've never heard of an office not returning their patients calls. I have heard that he was going to retire but don't you usually let your patients know? There isn't any reason to treat your long time patients like this. I think the other doctors in the group are just as bad.

He asked me to remind him when i check in at my appointment time which I DID as soon as i got there i told the front desk then i told the MA then i told the nurse putting in my IV (i watched her write it on a sticky note add put it on my chart. Then Dr Donner came in and i told him again on top of EVERYONE ELSE!! Low and behold NO ONE (NOT ONE DARN "professional" medical person especially Dr Donner DID NOT CARE!! They did NOTHING AT ALL to make sure that did not happen to me again (even after assuring me it would NOT happen again) WELL IT DID And i was awake suffering through the entire 2 procedures!! I can not put into words how incredibly horrible it was!! Even worse than that NO ONE....And i mean NO ONE (not even Dr Doner) apologized or took time to explain what went wrong COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL AND IN MY OPINION NEGLIGENT!! Do your homework before choosing this office for your care! There's a GI Dr on every corner! Find one that actually cares about you your health and comfort.

    I write this review with immense gratitude for dr. Patel. After being very sick for several months…read moremy symptoms became increasingly worse and debilitating. Not knowing where to turn or whom to trust, thankfully a dear friend referred me to Dr. Patel. During my first appointment, Dr. Patel listened carefully to my concerns and understood that I was not only in severe pain but also nervous about being in a doctor's office. She quickly put me at rest with her compassionate and positive bedside manner. After her very thorough examination, she scheduled multiple tests. These tests identified serious but treatable GI issues, a hormonal imbalance, and a large ulcer that I was completely unaware of. Within a short time after starting treatment I was a newer better version of myself. Now, months later, I continue to improve and truly appreciate Dr. Patel for her incredible ability and willingness to address my medical issues.

    After suffering with a very difficult bout of IBS for 10 weeks and not getting answers or help from…read moretwo doctors, I found Dr. Patel, who gave me LOTs of HOPE, along with important information re: my health problems, meds and supplements. She understood how exhausted I was and showed me warm caring as well, which I appreciated! The endoscopy she suggested went very smoothly, with her by my side to answer my questions, beforehand and afterwards. Since my two visits, I've called her office with questions to her medical assistant, Precious, and I received answers from Dr. Patel within a day as well as a personal reply from her via email. Though she is listed here with a Tustin, CA office, she has a Mission Viejo office as well--it's very convenient for me!

    Have you ever tried to call your LOCAL US Postal Office, or the LOCAL Social Security Office, or…read moreyour LOCAL in town DMV Office?? THAT IS WHAT MemorialCare is like trying to CALL your assigned Primary Care Dr, ANY of the local MemorialCare offices for a Lab Test or a simple authorized regular Xray, make an Appointment!!! It's like BIG GOVERNMENT where you have to call Washington DC to talk to the local Post Office or SSI Office, and the "Navigators" cares and actually knows what to do, about as much as a Government Worker does! MemorialCare REFUSES to LIST LOCAL Dr. Office Numbers, you have to go through some oblivious "Navagator" in the cloud somewhere, and you NEVER get to the local MC office!! MemorialCare is "Anchored" to RadNet for ALL XRay, CT, MRI, Ultrasound etc Imaging and RadNet has been CLOSING THEIR OFFICES like crazy in South Orange County. They ONLY HAVE ONE CT Scanner now, and it's at Saddleback Hospital Adjoining WAVE office. They have NO regular Xray facilities anymore in South OC, they CLOSED them all!! Only "WAVE Saddleback" has XRay and THEY WILL NOT TAKE APPOINTMENTS, Walk-in only, a WAIT of anything from 30 minutes to 2, 3 hours! And there is no way to have that XRay done at any local MemorialCare office by appointment!! I have Lung Cancer and was supposed to have Surgery on Friday Aug 23rd, and the Surgeon needs a Lung CT one week before the surgery, EXCEPT because RadNet ONLY HAS ONE CT Scanner in my area, it's BOOKED until Sept 9th!! (almost 2 weeks AFTER my Cancer Surgery!) If you like dealing with BIG COMMUNIST STYLE GOVERNMENT, then you go ahead and sign up with MemorialCare, because it will be just like that, and they don't give a SH*T about you!!!! MemorialCare just told me I'd have to drive, in my condition, 45 miles on the congested 5 Freeway for 1-1/2 Hours to the next nearest RadNet CT Scanner facility!! How about that!?? One last point to be fair, SOME of the MemorialCare Doctors I have are very nice and caring, Dr. Ansari is one of them; but it's the Company or Organization that SUCKS, and is like a Bloated Government Agency, and we all know what they are like!
