I saw Lynette Williamson for a year in San Diego as a holistic doctor.even though I had the best doctors available to me. I found Dr Williamson to be a very inspiring doctor, and very caring and thorough in her check ups of me. Evan Sachs read more

I never given a poor review before but feel compelled to do so here. I don't want anyone to have to go through what I am going through. I went in for my first 10 pass ozone therapy session two weeks ago. Halfway through the procedure, another doctor came in to take over from Doctor Williamson. It was clear that the new doctor was being trained. Doctor Williamson stayed in the room to supervise. Once the procedure was over, they left me unsupervised with the needle still in my arm. After a few minutes, my arm started to throb. A few minutes later, I started calling out for someone to get the needle out. It took another 10 minutes for the new doctor and Steven to come in and tend to me. The new doctor took the needle out and did a poor job of wrapping my arm. The compression bandage came off before she even left the room. When I got home, the gauze was bloody. Since the procedure two weeks ago, my arm has been in terrible condition and I am in severe pain. I am unable to use my arm at all - I can't even pick up a glass of water. I am going to my primary care physician today - she is concerned that I have nerve damage. I have messaged Dr. Williamson twice and Steven is the one who called me back. I want to talk to a doctor, not the office manager. I wish I would have checked the other Yelp reviews - if I had, I would not have gone to this doctor. It is also odd that Dr Williamson is the only person with a background on the website. What is the background of the other doctor? What is Steven's background? Why is he giving me nutritional advise? I went to Dr. Williamson with the hope of improving my condition. Two weeks later, I am in a much worse place physically and mentally. read more

Dr. Williamson is absolutely amazing. She genuinely cares for anyone who walks into her practice. She takes the time to listen and research you as a whole rather than the one or two issues you may have come to see her about. Dr. Williamson was able to help me with knee pain that became unbearable and I could hardly walk. With the therapies she provided within 2 weeks the pain subsided by 80%. I can not thank her and her staff enough. If I could give a 10 star rating I would. To loose your ability to walk and then gain it back is a miracle in its self. You are one of a kind Dr. Williamson. So thankful to have found you. Lilly read more

Dr Williamson is the best at what she does! I would highly recommend her for anything related to holistic or regular medicine . She takes the time to understand the issue and prescribe the correct action. She has helped me immensely! David V read more

It seems like most of my Doctors are retiring, left and right, so when my main Doctor retired, and was replaced by Dr. Williamson, I was delighted that I had a very knowledgeable Dr., as well as a Dr. who took time to review all of my concerns. My only issue is that this practice does not accept insurance, nor medicare. Also, sometimes Stephen is not there to answer the phone during regular business hours. For those 2 reasons, I give the practice a 4 star rating, although, I would give Dr. Williamson a 5 star rating. read more

Dr. Williamson is an incredibly talented physician and has made a world of difference in my health in just a short time. She takes her time with going over lab results and doing the best supplementation and IVs she can for her patients. She's the one physician I have been to where I've actually felt heard and cared about my health as a whole. I can't recommend her enough! Steven is also a great asset to discuss dietary and lifestyle changes and is very knowledgeable in the field! They'll both get you feeling better in no time. read more

Worst experience ever! She was always behind at 30 -45 min each appointment. She and her husband ( whom I don't remember having any medical training). repeatedly "prescribed" overpriced remedies and supplements which they sold in their office. I moved to a different organic practice and they immediately took me of the stuff. Dr. W diagnosed me with, amongst other things, a thyroid problem which my current doctors tested for and cannot find. I left the practice years ago but I am still continually getting emails to give my opinion. I tried to unsubscribe but still getting emails. Don't want to be a jerk... but here is my opinion. read more

Doctor Williamson is a brilliant doctor she's very insightful and discerning with a high level of knowledge of western and natural therapies which is really what we all need because we're all different! read more

This practitioner charges for everything at high prices, and will not adjust or fix superbills for insurance reimbursement when there are errors. With such expensive visits, it would be extremely helpful to get some reimbursement back from insurance. read more

I reached out last week to a number of doctors regarding a medical issue. Most didn't respond, got a couple "sorry. unable to help you" emails, and 1 with referrals. Steven emailed me and we spoke on the phone for around 20 minutes are so about what I am going through. He gave me a lot of tips and resources. No strings attached. It was extremely helpful information. Would like to come to the office one day because my experience over the phone was good. read more

She is a real gem in the healthcare space. She takes her time, she is very smart and she is very caring. What more can you ask for? She offers real world solutions to the problems we all share. By far the best health care experience I've had! read more

I've been going to Dr. Williamson for over 7 years (myself and my husband) because of the integrative approach she takes to helping us manage our overall wellbeing. Don't expect to be in and out of her office in 10-15 minutes, which we all have been accustomed to most of our lives. She thoroughly reviews your concerns and lab results and also takes time to educate you about your own body. She's not just a Doctor, but an advocate for your health. Dr. Williamson also puts together a wellness plan that includes suggestions on food/cleanses, articles and educational resources, and a robust supplement list. I feel that I'm in better health than I was in my 20's or 30's thanks to Dr. Williamson. read more

Dr. Williamson has been great! She really takes time to discuss your situation and answer any questions you have. She develops a plan to get you on the way to better health and walks you through it. She orders thorough labs so that she has a complete picture of your whole health situation. The supporting team at the Stengler Center are wonderful as well. They are courteous, extremely helpful, and accommodating. They return calls/messages quickly. The online patient portal is a great tool that provides you access to all of your lab results, your visit summaries, your wellness plan including medications/supplements/treatments, etc., just about anything you need. read more

Dr. Williamson is a very caring and honest practitioner. I found her to be very easy to talk to, extremely competent and an excellent diagnostician. She is now at the Stengler Center for Integrative Medicine which I'm thrilled about as Dr. Mark has treated my whole family for years. What a perfect fit. She truly cares and you just can't teach that in medical school. I highly recommend Dr Linette. read more

Save your time and money there are much better hormone replacement doctors in the area. Just because you have an "appointment" don't expect to be seen anytime soon waits could be hours. She knows the basics and is by no means on the cutting edge. I have left this office multiple times frustrated and will not return. They sell their own supplements and try to sell them at your appointments adding 500 plus dollars to your bill in supplements you may or may not need. I do not recommend this office Navy SEAL ret read more

SO BAD. I saw Dr. Williamson after my previous doctor retired. She prescribed a "natural" thyroid medication. I didn't question it as I had a couple family members who took levothyroxine. I feel so foolish for trusting her and not figuring out the medication was causing my heart to race. The medication gave me heart palpitations on and off for years until I finally went to an endocrinologist who told me I DO NOT NEED THYROID MEDICATION. Looking back at my blood work, there was no indication why she would prescribe this medication (except for the fact that she sold it out of her office)! I also echo what others have said about price gouging. They raised price for an office visit without informing me AND constantly tried to UPSELL me on tests I didn't need. She even tried to charge me several hundred dollars for a heart monitor test due to my heart palpitations which were a result of the Natur-Throid SHE prescribed, which as I mentioned, I didn't need. I never would have left this review, but her office has begun an aggressive marketing campaign emailing me asking for my opinion. read more

I highly recommend Dr Williamson!! She's amazing. If you are fed up with traditional medicine and you understand that traditional medical doctors are prescription doctors and you want a doctor that practices curative medicine I highly recommend Dr. Williamson. She got to the bottom of my Long haul Covid symptoms. Her prescriptions were a mix of some pharmaceuticals and some natural medicines alongside changes in my diet that made a huge impact on my recovery. They were all for short term use to cure rather than to sustain. It worked. read more

Dr. Williamson is an exceptional diagnostician and clinician; she is brilliant, intuitive, kind, and patient. Dr. Williamson provides detailed evaluation, uncovers the root/s of health problems/ailments, and provides treatment and solutions that resolve them at a cellular level. Dr. Williamson's model of care has medically turned around a complex set of medical issues for me. Through Dr. Williamson's clinic and treatment, I have experienced an exponential improvement in my medical & functional health and also well-being. read more

Dr. W has been my primary care physician for over 10 years. I am currently 60. When I first met her I had stomach issues for about 20 years. Needless to see she found what the problem was when the specialists couldnt. Since then, she is my "go to" MD. She balances traditional medicine with nutrition, supplements, and a host of other hormone balancing strategies. (I recently visited her office and received a 45 minute education on the benefits of Ozone:). Also, if you want to understand how a drug works, she will not only take the time to explain it, but if your up for it, she will draw the chemical compound and show how it interacts. read more

Dr. Williamson takes her time with me and has always looked at my overall health. She has helped balance my hormones and vitamins. Dr. Williamson uses objective measurements to assess my body's absorption of vitamins and hormones. She has helped me to lose weight on a diet and workout routine that I could stick to. She has a variety of IV therapies that have really helped my body. NAD is great to help with slowing the cellular aging process. Dr. Williamson provides vitamins and uses La Vita Compounding Pharmacy for the best quality hormones. I feel full of energy and alive. I have recommended her to everyone I know, because of her professionalism and kindness. Dr. Williamson has a patient portal for me to use to review the visit at any time and to answer my questions. Her staff are very welcoming. read more

I will be honest, I haven't seen Linette for about 5 or more years, but I left a long time practice when she took over. Lots of confusion with paperwork, blood tests ordered that I didn't need, etc. I'm sure it has gotten much better after getting acclimated. read more

I can't say enough good things about Dr. Williamson. I have been a patient of hers for ten years now, and she has played an essential role in my journey to good health. I value the personalized care she provides and how her preventative approach allows me to be proactive about my health. Throughout our relationship, I've been able to experience the effectiveness of integrative medicine and learned how to be kind to my body. Unlike traditional medicine practices, Dr. W.'s functional approach focuses on healing from within, which gives me peace of mind. For example, she orders extensive bloodwork - not just the basics - and provides a detailed wellness plan customized with recommended supplements, diet, exercise, and other pertinent information for my specific health needs. She looks at the fine details of my results and addresses insufficiencies before they become serious problems. Because of Dr. W's guidance, I'm able to maintain excellent health, and I just feel good. When I have had specific health issues in the past (gut problems, shingles, pre-diabetes, hypothyroidism), Dr. W. has been there to diagnose and find the root cause. Her treatment plans focus on healing from within, as opposed to traditional Band-Aid fixes. For example, there was a time a couple of years ago where I had a bad stomach ache for months, and nothing was helping. Dr. W put me on an elimination diet to figure out what was causing my gut inflammation. Together, we figured it out, and she advised me on the proper diet for my specific gut problem. To this day, I don't get tummy aches anymore! More recently, I had a bad case of shingles on my face, scalp, in my ear, even in my eye. I had an allergic reaction to one of the medications that the ER prescribed me for the nerve pain (Gabapentin), and my face swelled up like a balloon. So I stopped taking that medication, and Dr. W replaced it with a homeopathic remedy that she made for me in her office, which, I swear, was more effective than the pharmaceutical drug the hospital had given me - and without an allergic reaction! Not only that, but once Dr. W started me on some IV therapies, my recovery from shingles was not only bearable but kind of impressive. In the end, I had some minor facial scarring; however, Dr. W. used some of my blood to create a platelet-rich plasma spray for facial rejuvenation. I didn't think my face would ever look the same again, but thanks to Dr. W, my face is back to normal. In addition to her functional approach, I appreciate that she explains things to me with however-much scientific detail I can handle, so I'm never left feeling confused or that I have more questions than when I started. Not only is she well-prepared when I get in her office, but she also takes the time to be thorough while I'm with her and addresses all of my questions with care. She listens to my concerns, and I don't feel that I have to exaggerate symptoms to get her attention. Unlike conventional doctors, I feel that Dr. Williamson genuinely cares about my health and well-being. read more

An excellent doctor! Listens well, asks good questions to help us think through issues. Is proactive and attentive! I highly recommend Dr Williamson!!! read more

I try to avoid the Dr.s office, but I had to come in for a follow up on some blood work. My appointment was at 1:15pm. I showed up at 1:00 and it's 2:30 and the Dr. Still has not made an appearance. I feel like I waited so long that even though I am not sick, I could have easily become sick from sitting in an office full of germs this long. The wait time is a common complaint for this office! Every time I have a visit, it's always the same thing. I am definitely going to change my primary care physician asap! This is not acceptable of any business. read more

I don't know where I would be without Dr. Williamson. Her detailed care and conscientious approach are amazing. She always takes the time to explain everything she is seeing in my blood work and provides specific, actionable changes I can make to improve my health for the long term. I cannot recommend Dr. Williamson enough. I would give her a 6 star rating if that was an option. read more

I did like a previous Yelper and searched my insurance website for a provider and took a chance (well... after reading the Yelp reviews :). It's been easy to schedule appointments, and I have been to the office a few times, only once I had to wait. Communicating with the office is a breeze - I prefer email over phone and Lori at the front desk is always quick to respond. Dr Williamson is great, I felt comfortable with her right away and didn't feel rushed. I docked a star because I just wish this was an all-in-one clinic - they send you all over town for things like blood work and imaging. read more

I'm a 62 year old male and have been a patient of Dr. Williamson for approximately 5 years. She was referred to me by my massage therapist after venting my frustration of feeling completely abandoned by the traditional health care system. Needless to say, my experience with her has been life changing. Over the years together, we've worked hard to establish a complete and personalized baseline which serves to monitor my overall systemic functionality. The resulting efforts have enabled me to maintain a highly active and vigorous lifestyle, free from sickness/disease. The bottom line is that staying healthy as we age is no easy task and requires commitment, diligence and a coordinated effort between patient and doctor. Dr. Williamson has become my trusted partner/professional for my healthcare who I consider a good friend as well...try to imagine that in the current traditional healthcare environment. Thx Doc! read more

Dr. Williamson has been a godsend. I have more energy at age 60 than I did when I was 40. Her ability to look deeper than just the symptoms, and get to the underlying cause of my pain and fatigue is unmatched. She took the necessary time to pin point what care was needed and worked with me to get amazing results. Dr Williamson deserves 10 stars read more

The best unsuspecting surprise! I searched the provider directory on my insurance website for a female provider, and I took a chance. I was pleasantly surprised with my entire experience at this office! This is a small practice, and the office staff are very friendly, thorough and knowledgeable. I waited a few extra minutes to see Dr. Williamson, but it was well worth it! She took her time to cover everything we needed to talk about AND she has an independent holistic practice in the same building. She believes in taking a holistic approach when it's best for her patients. I will be going back to see her! Thank you Dr. Williamson!! read more

I think this is the last time I'll bother coming here. I'm so sick of waiting an hour after my appointment time to be seen. My time is valuable too! read more

I should mention that I am writing this review from the waiting room... I came in as a first time patient and showed up promptly the full 30 minutes before my scheduled appointment time, which I was told was critical to fill out paperwork. I spent about 2 minutes on the paperwork and did nothing with the remaining 28. Another 40 minutes later I'm still sitting here. The front desk staff appears to consist of three people, none of which can provide an answer to how much more of my day they plan to squander. This will be the first and last time for me. read more

$510 for an office visit? Dr. Williamson, and her staff, appear to care more about the bottom line than the patient. To be charitable, I do feel that Dr. Williamson does care about her patients. Though, perhaps only to the extent that they keep booking appointments. On two occasions, I will billed $510 for a single office visit. Both visits were subject to a supplemental fee of over $225 for what was described as a "prolonged visit fee". Both visits were specifically for follow-ups on blood work. I was NEVER advised that such a fee would be added to my bill. When I called to discuss the supplemental charges, which I feel are borderline fraudulent, I was told that Dr. Williamson routinely spends extra time with her patients. (Now I see why). The office manager, Steven, was extremely unprofessional and lacked any compassion for my situation. I won't go back. I encourage anyone who is looking for a doctor to keep looking. There are many doctors out there that are willing to give quality time to their patients, without strings attached. read more

Terrible service. My family has been going to this practice for years since Dr. Kadry was there. Since Dr. Williamson took over, she has replaced the front office staff with incompetent employees. I had a lab test done and needed the results a week later. I called the office probably about 10 times over a span of a week and could only get through to the "answering service". I left multiple messages with her but still never received a call about my results. As a patient, I felt completely neglected. It took over three weeks of me calling in to get my results. Since this experience I have continued to have a terrible time reaching the office to make appointments. I usually have to leave two or three messages with the answering service before anyone calls me back or before I get through to the front office. I am astonished by the service that I have experienced. I think Dr. Williamson has a great outlook on health and agree with her on her emphasis on nutrition. But there is no excuse for the service I have experienced. read more

Long waits. They never answer their phone. You can only leave messages for a return call. Husband works with Dr Williamson as a nutritionist but he doesn't appear to have credentials. He will read to you from a book as opposed to speaking from knowledge. I tried to send the office an email using the address info@coastmedicalcenter.net from their website but it came back as undeliverable. I Googled Linette Williamson to find updated contact information and it appears that she now works for Kaiser. I left a message and I am awaiting a call back for adding the details of my experience with this office. So far, all negative. read more

She addressed all my concerns and took the time to explain things. She seemed to genuinely care more than other doctors I've seen in the area. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 stars is that she ordered blood work that I thought was routine and covered by insurance. But it turned out it was coded as "patient has vitamin deficiency" and was not covered by insurance. There was no basis for her to assume vitamin deficiency. If you're concerned about $ mention that when she's filling out the prescription for blood work. read more

Just awful! The front desk staff are unprofessional and uncaring. Do not go here.

Terrible terrible terrible. I have been at Coast Medical Center for years and it has gone into the toilet recently. The last 3 appointments I have waited for over an hour before being seen. Last appointment was rescheduled twice and then I was given attitude for being a few minutes late to the rescheduled time and day. Staff is rude and they keep losing the forms. Going elsewhere read more

I arrived on time to my appointment at 10:00 and was told that my appointment time was changed to 2:15 and that one of the nurses left a voicemail informing me of the change (later i saw the voicemail was left at 8:30 that same morning, not nearly enough notice). The woman at the front desk initially apologized and said that they could fit me in now into their schedule. I told her that I had to be somewhere around 11:00 and she reassured me that it wouldn't take too long. No other patients were in the waiting room and there seemed to be plenty of staff. And so I waited. It wasn't until 10:45 that I was abruptly told that the doctor could not see me now because she was busy and that I would have to return at 2:15. Waiting 45 minutes to hear this was very frustrating and unacceptable. From my chair I could see that they were scrambling to organize their work and it seemed like no one really knew what was going on. What do they even do back there? On another, earlier occasion, I called to see if my lab results had been received from Quest Diagnostics. I was told that they were "working on it" and that I would receive a call within an hour. I received no call for 3 hours, so I called back and no one picked up. The next day when I called again, the woman failed to give me a clear answer on whether or not the doctors office had my results yet which should have been received 2 weeks prior directly from Quest. I kept asking her why there was so much confusion about finding my lab results, until finally she said "ok we'll let you know" and hung up on me. really?!?!?? I would like to add that the staff was extremely apologetic when I returned to my 2:15 appointment and treated me very well. I very much appreciate that, but I should be treated well every time I enter their office. These are just 2 isolated instances of many more smaller frustrations. I will soon be looking for a new doctor. read more

Dr Williamson is awesome! Yes sometimes you have to wait awhile to see her but you usually do with the good doctors. She actually takes time to spend with you, listen to you about your concerns, explain to you whats going on and not hurry you through a visit. Because of her she figured out a serious medical issue that 2 other doctors didn't even notice or address that should have known better. Thanks to her I am feeling healthy and fabulous!! read more
