While I was here in this establishment several days ago, I asked if they had any special offers and they weren't offering any at the moment. They also do not allow pets in their establishment UNLESS it's a service animal.
Parking: The parking lot for this establishment is decent. It can get full very easily and quickly because they share the lot with several other medical offices. Parking spots are a decent size.
Establishment: The establishment itself is very clean, neat, and tidy.
Staff:
My first visit here as a patient myself wasn't bad, but this time, my mom was the patient and our experience was horrible!
The staff here are very incredibly rude, unprofessional, and dismissive. If I could give this place zero stars, I absolutely would. Let's begin by discussing the receptionist. When my mom and I entered the office, we weren't greeted. The person answering the phone just threw the sign in clipboard towards us and motioned us to fill it out. When I told her that my mom was a new patient, she said, "Hey you! Come here and fill out the new patient form." When we were done filling out the form and we turned it in, the receptionist didn't even speak to us. She just used hand motions. How rude.
And now for the crappiest doctor in the world, Dr. Ted Shen. This doctor doesn't like to listen to his patients and is incredibly dismissive. When my mom was trying to explain her symptoms to him, he cut her off mid sentence and said, "This has nothing to do with my area of expertise. You need to see a neurologist. Why are you here? I don't care because that is not my area of expertise. Stop complaining to me." When my mom then complained to him about her frequent stuffy nose, he was all like, "You need surgery to fix it. It's an easy procedure that takes 20 minutes. Yes or no?" What do you mean "yes or no"? When my mom and I tried to ask him about the risk and benefits of this surgery, he dismissed us. He said, "There is no need for both of you to worry about the risks. It's minimal. Both of you are asking too many questions. Stop wasting my time." WTF?!?! Plus, he didn't even take the time to look inside her nose to see what's wrong. How did he know that she needed surgery? Did this asshat just assume she needed nose surgery? What kind of shit medical practice is he running over here?
He is also very arrogant. I told him I was a nurse, and I am taking my mom's symptoms and complaints very seriously. He then said, "Oh you're a nurse. Did you go to medical school for 12 years? If not, be quiet! You don't know anything!" Like wow! How rude, disrespectful, and condescending! He was also very impatient and rushing. When my mom wanted to tell him a couple more things, he kept one hand on the door knob trying to leaving the room. He also had the audacity to say, "Okay. Hurry up. Please shorten your story." Like wow! What an ass. He just seemed so annoyed and irritated when we kept asking him questions. *sigh* When he used the otoscope to look into my mom's ears, he was very rough. Also, when he used some medical device to take out some ear wax from my mom's ears, he was incredibly rough. He was so rough that my mom screamed out in pain. I told him to stop what he was doing immediately, and he called my mom weak for being unable to tolerate what he was doing to my mom's ears. Horrible bedside manners. I wanted to punch this guy in the face so badly in that moment. Do yourself a favor and do NOT see him. He's the worst doctor ever. My mom and I felt belittled after our visit. He's the doctor from hell. He seriously lacks compassion, empathy, and understanding. Dude is a massive douche bag. I honestly expected more and better from a doctor. This is probably one of the worst experiences / interactions I have ever had with a doctor.
