He did not talk at all but instead mumbled to his assistant (son?) who would the give me instructions. After his electric shock tests my hands wrists and elbows are still in great pain 8 hours after his test. I received no council on how to treat my bulging disc and was told to return fro test results in late November! I feel that Dr. Birk abused my trust and inflicted unnecessary and unexplained suffering on me without even attempting to explain his purpose in doing so. I recommend everyone steer clear of this uncaring incompetent neurologist.

We are so fortunate to have Dr Garnaas and her team here in the northstate. I was able to get a…read morenerve conduction study done very quickly, and it was almost a pleasant experience in the hands of Don Garnaas. His kindness and sense of humor eased the physical discomfort of the test. Once the testing was complete, Dr Garnaas quickly came up with a potential diagnosis and started treatment right away. She has all of the local contacts for the best home health, physical therapy, occupational therapy and any other needs that I have. This would not work as smoothly with an out of the area physician. Even more important than her northstate location is Dr Garnaas's extreme competence and compassion. It's a relief to be in such capable hands. Although I have a serious and rare neurological condition, it's been somewhat easier to deal with because everyone that I have encountered in the office shares the same caring attitude toward patients. It's a pleasure to work with all of the staff at Catalyst Neuromedical.

This is an update from my last review. The very day of my review. I received a call from Shasta…read moreCommunity and the lady I spoke to claimed my prescriptions were filled on the 8th. The Walgreens pharmacy begs to differ as they told me when I went to pick them up on the afternoon of the 10th that only one had been filled on the 8th my other two had been received that day. Which I feel is still unacceptable since even if they approved the refills on the 8th as she claimed. I had submitted my request on December 28th so it took them until the 8th to refill basic health maintaining medications, no pain meds or other controlled meds. So the reason I am giving them four stars is Doctor Lynn. Today was my first visit with this new doctor and he was great. I found him to be knowledgeable and respectful. He actually treated me as a human being. He listened to my concerns, asked questions pertaining to my specific ailments and offered solutions for treatment. I did not feel I was being lumped in with patients that have substance abuse issues. I hope he is an example of new hiring practices and that Shasta Community Health Center, Placer street branch will continue to hire people who can separate their personal religious, political and social beliefs from their care of patients. Also when I checked out this time a nice, polite young man was there to help me who obviously enjoyed his job. Not like the afore mentioned grumpy butt that used to be there.

I've been going to Dr. Jack Finch since 2005. He is a great Family Practice Physician. If you…read morewant a doctor who will actually listen to you, then go to him. By Family Practice, I mean he, and thereby his staff, are going to prioritize the urgent over the routine and the followups. I live an hour's drive away, although I didn't live as far away when I first started seeing Dr. Jack, so that ought to tell you what I think of him as a family physician. I believe the reason the wait times are sometimes long is that he really hears you out about whatever your current complaint is and he is well liked by his patients so he has a lot of them. If you're the one on the receiving end of a caring physician then you'll appreciate and plan for the possibility of a longer wait time on some visits. Of course, if you're in the waiting room awaiting your turn to have your medical concerns addressed it can be frustrating especially if you have other appointments. I don't schedule anything after my appointments for this reason and I don't schedule appointments on Mondays. And I bring something to read so I can ignore the staff and other patient conversations. I will say I do try to schedule routine and followup visits for the first one after the lunch break. I'd rather have the staff do the task of hurrying things along and not have my doctor cut me off and not listen to the full picture of what is going on with my body/health. BTW, I have never had any of the staff be rude or unprofessional towards me. When there is going to be a long wait time, I've been given an explanation and an opportunity to reschedule. What more could you ask of them? I will say, I almost didn't write this review because I didn't want to sign up for yelp in order to post a review. I wonder how many other's don't do it for the same reason!?!
