Primary & Specialty Care - Dignity Health Medical Group

I've no complaint with the doctors, per se. The physicians are often competent - when you actually…read moresee them, for the 10-15 minutes Dignity Health allows them per visit per patient! And I am not exaggerating to make a point; this is what the staff will confirm when asked. It took me three years of 15-minute visits just to get to the point of maybe finding a solution for my health issues when... MY PRIMARY AND MY SPECIALIST BOTH QUIT (because they had to see15-18 patients per day). AND I WAS GIVEN NO NOTICE. Very unprofessional. So I could get no "Referrals" (really: "permission") to a new specialist without first establishing a relationship with a NEW Primary from Dignity (oh what a misnomer that name is), which of course took two months to get - just to start over from square one! Gawd forbid I had something like diabetes which requires regular care! And to reiterate what the other poster (Shelly G) said here because it's important: YOU CAN NOT ACTUALLY CALL OR CONTACT YOUR DOCTOR who contracts with Dignity! You can only contact Dignity's "central phone answering system" which might take a message and might convey that to an assistant in your doctor's office. At some point, that assistant then might communicate whatever to your doctor, etc. ad nauseum. In actuality, in three years with Dignity, my response time has averaged between never and 4-5 days, and only if one leaves two or more "messages." - This is not what Medicare determines to be REASONABLE ACCESS to medical care. Example: I had a minor hairline tibial fracture. I couldn't see my doctor so I went to ER. Saint John's Hospital in Camarillo is fantastic. I saw a doctor there in under 10 minutes. It was clean, beautifully situated, etc. She ordered an X-Ray, "stat." But of course that "referral" had to be processed first through Dignity. After calling Dignity numerous times with no response, I gave up. I never got that "stat" ("urgent") x-ray. Luckily, I think and hope it healed by itself after eight weeks. The ER doctor was annoyed that the Insurer (Dignity) could and would just ignore her, but was helpless. This is one reason why so many doctors quit Dignity. Insurer's guidelines are aligned with their bean counters who calculate how to maximize profits with minimal concern about their patient's health. Note: Currently when one visits any doctor, you are REQUIRES to fill out numerous pages of forms. Only 2-3 pages are related to your health - which the doctor has no time to read. But about 2-4 pages are legal paperwork where your waive your right to sue, regardless, and must accept "Binding Arbitration" by some lawyer preselected by the Insurer! Gawd! This is what happens, folks, when your medical care is turned over to Insurance Companies! Good luck! PS: As of this writing, two of the three photos of doctors employed by Dignity (posted below) no longer work there!

The doctor made me feel like I was just another thing to mark of their checklist, rather than listened to or cared for. She entered the room by asking "So, what are you here for?" no warm welcome at all! Instead of reading my test results back to me & explaining them she recommended I join a workout class. I left the appointment feeling like I wasted my time, without receiving any real medical guidance or support. Healthcare should be compassionate and professional, but unfortunately, this office provided neither. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for respectful and attentive medical care.

You'll feel you can really talk to her and it is clear she is listening carefully, then thoughtfully considering a response. It's very clear she truly cares about her patients. It's unusual to find someone like this in the medical field! I'm also going to note I suddenly had an urgent problem with a medication while I was out of state AND about to leave the country. She and her staff went above and beyond to ensure I got this medication. Thank you NP Fiacco and staff!!

She went through my medical history casually asking questions and charged me for a completely additional visit that I never requested or agreed to. It was not covered by my insurance and the bloodwork she ordered for me was not within the scope of annual bloodwork and definitely not covered. I'm having to dispute it now which is a nightmare. Around $800 for everything which was supposed to be a simple physical and preventative bloodwork. Never going back.

She seemed to know a lot about a wide range of things both traditional Western medicine and Holistic. She asked me about my allergies. I'm allergic to so many things, including being chemically sensitive to so many pharmaceuticals. She said that there's a treatment for cat allergies that is out of pocket and spendy but works. I'll be doing traditional bloodwork and allergy panels to get a current update. She likes that I'm already on Dr Gundry MD and Dr Amy Myers MD supplements and that I'm on A2 milk. For non dairy alternatives she recommended Coconut Milk over Oatmilk and Almond Milk she said to use unsweetened. She likes that I'm doing red light therapy but says it's not a substitute for exercise. She plans to put me on an exercise routine once my foot heals. All sounds good to me. I'm looking forward to working with her this year.

Over time I started feeling a bit of a rushed feeling then I started feeling dismissed after my tests came back normal. I've still been struggling with those same symptoms on top of new ones that make the first ones worse. I went to see her yesterday for the new symptoms and the second I started explaining that I was still having the same ones she cut me off and told me she didn't want to talk about those symptoms since the tests came back normal and wanted to focus on the new ones. I was taken aback but switched to the current symptoms. Since the new ones exacerbate the old ones I had to talk about it. And she didn't not like that and told me the results were fine and I was just going to have to accept that this was it. I told her I felt dismissed because the cardiologist I got referred to did not even see me for a follow up she had referred me for. Instead he had his receptionist call and cancel my appointment. She seemed a bit surprised by that and just said she'd review his notes again. At one point she told me she sensed some anxiety from me and I told her yes. My health has been declining for the last year and I'm frustrated and anxious cause I can't eat in fear of making things worse. She then asked if I had a therapist and when I said I was looking to go to one she told me that was good as mental can make physical health worse. I agreed but told her I did not think my symptoms stemmed from that. At some point I said I'd like to leave as I knew I wasn't being heard. We talked more. She told me she thought that there was something physically wrong but my tests came back fine so that was that and I had to accept it and to talk to a therapist about it. When I pushed back and said I would like to see another cardiologist for a second opinion she told me I had seen the best medical professionals available and that I needed to accept it and she felt like I was dismissing her. I told her I appreciated the tests ordered but that I would like to know what is wrong. Shortly after she asked if I wanted to leave and I left. I did get some information for my new symptoms but the overall experience was bad.
