The ER here in Modesto is just, well...HORRID as in making my wife wait for 5 hours now and…read morecounting for a pain/cramping in her stomach like she's having a baby pain ! Well to be honest they were quick to take her in to be actually seen by the doctor and they did all their tests but they sent back out in the main waiting area while she's still in major pain and needs to run to the restroom every half hour and they couldn't give her a bed like she flipping needs when we got here now over 5 hours ago?! So ya I'm ranting but for her and this kind of disappearing act and not treating her promptly which by the way the main ER waiting room only had 4 people in there and the back had hardly anybody and this was on Sunday morning at 8am to start with and this situation reminds me of how in Bay Area back in the 70's and 80's of how bad it was then but the ER rooms were flooded with all kinds of people waiting unlike here that even 5+ hours later there's only no more than 9 people waiting that are behind us waiting so tell me what in Sam Hill is going on in Modesto and I've been a Kaiser member for over 40 years as my wife and this is just Ludachris !!!!!!! Update this visit is going on 6+ hours now !

I was recently admitted to Sutter Memorial after an ER visit for a broken leg. Surgery was required…read moreto properly set the bone. I want to begin by saying that the medical teams who treated my injury were exceptional--ER staff, the surgeon, anesthesiologist, surgical team, and floor nurses all provided excellent care and bedside manner. Unfortunately, the case management and administrative follow‑up were the opposite: disorganized, dismissive, and lacking compassion. After the case manager's third visit, I requested reassignment because of repeated issues. During her first visit--less than a day after surgery and my first PT session--she abruptly announced she was ordering equipment. I had already discussed choosing a wheelchair with PT (insurance covers only one item), but when I tried to explain this, she cut me off and repeated, "Insurance will only cover one." When I attempted to tell her about the steps at my home and the need for a ramp, she again interrupted and said, "Insurance won't cover that, you're on your own," offering no resources or guidance. Later, while I was on the phone trying to locate a ramp myself, she stood in my room sighing and rolling her eyes. She then told me I had been discharged--even though my nurse had just started an IV for low vitamin levels, I still had two doses left, the equipment she ordered hadn't arrived, and I still had no safe way to enter my home. When she asked if I had walked yet, I reminded her I was non‑weight‑bearing for at least two months. She then asked if I had Medicare, which I do not--another sign she hadn't reviewed my chart. I told her directly that her approach felt rude, rushed, and unsafe, and asked for a different case manager. Hours later, I learned the pharmacy couldn't fill my medication because it required prior authorization. When I called the operator asking for a patient advocate, I was transferred to a non‑working extension. After calling back and explaining the urgency, I was sent to the second case manager. She cut me off immediately, said she had "just received the information," and submitted the authorization but refused to follow up to ensure it went through. When I mentioned that home health also lacked prior authorization, she admitted it hadn't been done yet. She did not address my concerns about the first case manager and abruptly ended the call. In the days since, I have repeatedly tried to reach a patient advocate. Neither the hospital operator nor the main Sutter line could provide a working number. When the operator attempted to transfer me to her manager, the call went to voicemail and disconnected mid‑message. The medical teams make Sutter look excellent, but case management and administrative systems make patients feel abandoned. These failures matter--especially when patients are in pain, scared, and relying on the hospital to ensure safe discharge planning. When healthcare systems make it this difficult to advocate for ourselves, it discourages people from seeking care at all. Sutter needs to do better. Kaiser, in my experience, is far ahead in efficiency and patient support. As one example, I was told it would take five months to see an endocrinologist for a serious genetic condition--whereas with Kaiser, specialist appointments took only a few days.

I normally don't leave reviews, but this really concerned me…read more I've been to the Sutter ER three days in a row and each visit I notified staff/security that there was visible dried blood on the women's restroom door. Three days later it was still there. For a hospital -- especially one caring for pregnant and postpartum patients -- that's not just unpleasant, it's a sanitation and infection-control issue. The medical staff I interacted with were polite, but the cleanliness and follow-through were honestly disappointing. I hope management addresses housekeeping and patient safety concerns because this shouldn't require multiple reports from patients to get cleaned.

The office has gotten better recently. At first, it took up to an hour on hold to leave a message. Calls are returned by a nurse. One particular nurse has been consistently rude, condescending and not helpful. I hung up on her once after telling her she wasn't helpful. She called back and still wouldn't help. I asked to speak with Elizabeth directly. She called and took care of my refill request. The hold times have been much better lately. I heard one staff talking to another recently, talking about "You know how our patients are!" I was offended, maybe because I'm not the typical Medí-cal patient, but didn't say anything. Most staff are friendly. It would really help if there was a way to communicate electronically between appointments to ask questions and provide updates. I see mostly negative reviews of this clinic and my FNP. I'm basically satisfied with my care. Wasn't sure at first about Elizabeth, but I've come to appreciate her.

Since my mother passed away in December, I've been navigating a sea of emotions, and the compassion I found here truly made a difference. The instructor was equally delightful and injected humor into the atmosphere. Though I'm again at a loss for names, her cheerful demeanor and ability to connect with everyone made the experience enjoyable. She dedicated time to help each person, making sure that if anyone was confused about a question, they would have the guidance they needed. Her storytelling sprinkled throughout the lessons added a personal touch, making the entire experience not just educational but also engaging. Overall, it was a wonderfully positive experience.

One of the most important decisions you make is selecting a doctor. If you have medical insurance,…read moreyou are fortunate enough to have a number of physicians to choose from. Unfortunately, it may not be an easy decision. Some people are lucky and find a physician by recommendation from a friend, family member or coworker. Others luck out when they simply select a physician from a list of names. I fall into the second category. My previous physician retired so I needed to find a new general practitioner. I selected Dr. Lam as he had actually worked at the same office as my physician. Dr. Lam has changed practice locations several times and is now located at GMMSA in Modesto. He is a very caring and compassionate doctor. I never feel rushed during my check ups or visits. Dr. Lam takes the time to listen to concerns and answers questions without making a patient feel hurried. I appreciate his thoroughness and knowledge. I feel confident knowing that my health and well-being are being looked after and taken with good care.

As a Sutter patient for 15 years and coming from Sacramento, we will let all our family and friends know not to ever come here again.
