Dr. Allen and the whole staff at Center for Living Health are all extraordinary…read more Before my son was born I hunted high and low for a pediatrician that would a great support my child and any future children I would have. I had a lot of qualities that the Doctor would need to possess and needless to say Dr. Allen went way above and beyond. My son was born woth a rare genetic disease which did not really take full effect until his second birthday. Dr. allen was able to see he was showing signs of delay very early on and referred us to the early start program. He was so kind as to encourage us with a message of hope that we would help Finn overcome his challenges. He was able to supply us with healthier options for teething issues, as well as, giving us advice on sleeping and preventing fevers. Dr. Allen helped us navigate the devastating turn shortly after my son's second birthday. After a two month stay at Lucille Packard Children's Hospital, our first stop was to see Dr. Allen. He was very quick to help build back up the encouragement that Finn is going to do exactly what Finn is going to do. Dr. Allen has given us a deeper insight on labs and diagnosis, he has been wonderul at giving us supplements to help combat the side effects for the nasty medication he needs to be on and hes helped with pain management. He has also given us so much help when we have emergency hospital visits. He has supported mothers intuition (which has been right thus far) he has referred us to compassionate specialists. All I can say is, we live Dr. Allen. He and his team and a bright and guiding light during our very dark journey and I am so grateful yo have such a caring, honest and intelligent doctor double check the qork of everyone else that is involved in Finns life. All doctors should be like Dr. Michael Allen!

I've waited a few weeks to write this review- I wanted to make sure I wasn't coming from an angry…read moreplace I brought my daughter (16yr old) To see Dr. Allen because of high sugar levels/borderline diabetes in October. We are a family that eats very healthy; no seed oils, everything organic, very minimal sugar. No sodas, no processed or boxed food. Nothing microwaved. My daughter is very active in sports, she runs and weight lifts on weekly basis- yet has a very hard time loosing a single pound. We don't eat out, no fast food. So the high sugar levels and extremely low iron levels puzzled me. Thinking something in her gut needs to be fixed, or her thyroid is out of order. I had a handful of tests that I've already had Kaiser order and brought those to the appointment. To my surprise, the doctor didn't order new tests, didn't suggest new tests, and hardly reviewed the tests Several times he asked her if she was stressed. Several times- as if to have her change her mind. My daughter said she stresses over school- but nothing out of the originally and nothing on the extreme levels. The push was for stress lotions and his own vitamins that was created by him and his office. I was hoping he would do an exam on her, maybe to see if her glens were swollen, or look at her tongue- none of that done He spent an hour with us... and brought in a box of vitamins and lotions. My mistake was buying everything he suggested. We even paid for a bottle of vitamins that they didn't have in stock- but promised to send them in the mail. I had to call 3 weeks after the appointment and they forgot to send us the items we paid for. Office is disorganized. They did apologize for the mistake- but I should not have had to call to look for the vitamins weeks later after paying for them. I carefully chose this place, because he is an MD and practices holistic care and because of the yelp reviews. But it was my mistake In choosing this practice- because all he wants to do is upsell his own vitamins and lotions and not recommend anything else. Very disappointed in the appointment My daughter mentioned in the car that every vitamin looks the same and joked that we bought sugar pills. I was hoping that during this appointment, additional blood work and stool tests would of been ordered to see if fats are digested correctly, T3, T4 and THS tests would of been requested, or allergy testing or some other test to see if her gut is working properly. something else to see why her iron levels are almost non-existent and why her blood sugar is so high when she consumes no sugar Save yourself a thousand dollars, and go someplace where the doctor actually wants to get to the bottom of your issue and not just by having you buy his own vitamins. How can you prescribe vitamins when you don't truly know what is wrong.

I'm going to start off with saying Dr.Nyland made me feel comfortable that I fought until…read moreeverything was in order for her to do my surgery. Not only did she unconfirm my worst fear but in such a way I didn't feel like I was being over the top for thinking that could be what I have. She agreed I needed tonsillectomy at 41 but she asked me 3 times if I was sure given how difficult the recovery is and how painful it is but assured me she would handle the pain. The office manager I wasn't happy with as she gave me the run around because the doctor was new to the practice and she hadn't been accredited for both of my insurance's yet. And refused to look into anything else but said she would look into a different doctor being able to take my case. But I wanted Dr.Nyland. Long story short she finally did my surgery on 12/4 and boy was Dr.Nyland not kidding it is awful. But the doctor set me up for success with pain management. Because of regime of how to handle it if I stay on top of it stays at a 6/10. If I don't do every 4 hours to 1-2 tablets it gets it to where I can at lease drink water. I was scared with running out of meds cause my pharmacy told me something completely different. But I called on Friday and the MA assured me to take 1-2 every 4 hour's and not to worry it is the worst pain I will feel in life and they have my back if they need to order anything else. I don't know who the past doctor was at this practice but don't let the stars effect up to 6 months ago as Dr.Nyland is new to the practice. She is kind and comical. I'm incredibly glad I waited. And as a person who gets judged because of my tattoos and meds list she didn't. Thank you Dr.Nyland and staff for helping me through this darkest time of my life.

It has been a week and a half since I was told by Dr. Yee's P.A. Erwin, that I needed to have a throat scan done. No problem. BUT to get this office to send over the procedure request to DRI is another JOKE of a problem. The 2 female receptionists are on their phones the entire time shopping or browsing. Then they just sit and laugh loudly and I have an appointment on Dec. 13th to see the scan results! I can't even get the scan done without it being ordered. Plus, this 'waiting room / office' is extremely filthy! Looks like they do not even vacuum the carpet, and it is STAINED horrribly. Not happy with this first experience with this staff of 3.

Dr. Homler is one of the best diagnosticians I have ever experienced. He works diligently to…read moredetermine the underlying cause of an illness, then stays on top of the progress with the patient until the problem is resolved. The doctor takes the time to listen to his patients, never orders unnecessary tests, and is one of the most informed doctors on up to the minute procedures and medications. The doctor has made referrals for me to two other specialists for various tests and the referral doctors were fantastic as well. No wasted time or money. My wait time at the office has generally been in the range of 5-10 minutes and the office staff is courteous, efficient, and pleasant. I could not recommend Dr. Homler more highly, whether it be as a family physician, general practitioner, or his specialty as an Internist. Fees are extremely reasonable and they take most insurance carriers. Patient long term health is their definite priority. Dr. Homler is consistently rated in the top ten of health practitioners in the Sacramento area and he definitely has earned that distinction. He has staff privileges at Mercy Hospital across the street from his office, as well as Sutter in Roseville.

Dr Gannt is so full of himself…read more I had pretty much the same experience that another reviewer had: We talked on the phone, he noticed my Spanish accent and proceeded to "speak in Spanish". I'm using quotation marks because he does NOT speak Spanish, not even a little bit. I kept speaking in English and he kept trying to dazzle me with his inexistent Spanish skills. He thought he was being charming and helpful (poor immigrant me), but he was just being racist. Not only am I Hispanic, but also a woman. So to top it all off, he treated me like a clueless dumb girl who needed parenting advice. He scoffed when I told him how I'm feeding my kid. I follow how current studies recommend introducing food to babies. But he said the experts don't know anything... HE is the expert. He is the expert of all experts on all the topics of the universe, I guess (I'm rolling my eyes hard over here). At that point I was so stunned that I ended our talk. I found someone else

The other allergist told me to avoid all these foods for the rest of your life or else you will always be miserable after eating them. These foods would give me lots of acid reflux, gas, heart burn, stomach pain or I would break out badly in my face, neck and chest area. Dr. Roc will ask u to bring that exact food and not eat or touch it for 24 hrs. Then u can go crazy on that food or even certain drink like milk, coffee or even egg nog. Haha... And u will be fine. No drugs. No shots. And no drowsiness. I even tried this special type of spice which I loved called Pico Limon and I used to always break out when I'd try it but NOT anymore. One thing he said and I never forgot it: People are usually allergic to things that they really love, or really really hate. It's rarely in between.
