Dr. Rosenbaum's fatphobia and arrogance entrenched issues I was dealing with instead of diagnosing them and led her to misdiagnose me with PCOS. The diagnosis itself did not bother me but her delivery and subsequent actions were extremely damaging to both my psyche and body. More details below for those who may need to vet their doctors with much more scrutiny. (CW: Disordered eating/eating disorder & mention of weight loss and caloric count) From the time I started seeing her in my early 20s, Dr. Rosenbaum gave her strong opinions on my weight and what I should do about it. At 5'8" and 180 pounds at the time, I may have been clinically classified as "overweight" but my life wasn't affected by it, nor were any of my vitals. Her bedside manner rubbed me the wrong way but I thought it was my fault because of my weight. Her practice was close to my office and finding someone else seemed like a hassle for an appointment I had once a year even though I always dreaded seeing her and would push my appointment months to try losing more weight so I wasn't made to feel worse about myself. She was much less condescending the year I came in and had lost 50 pounds in six months, and she enthusiastically congratulated me on my effort which, in hindsight, she should have questioned instead of praising and telling me to keep it up. In the following year or two, I had put the weight back on much to her dismay and my shame, and my periods continued to be irregular as they had been since I first got my period at age 12. At that point, she told me she thought I had PCOS and had me get bloodwork. When I met with her in her office, she told me that I did indeed have PCOS as she suspected. I asked her if she had gotten my bloodwork back and she said, "I don't need to see it, I know it's PCOS." She told me I would need to lose weight and stop eating carbs and recommended seeing the nutritionist, Dr. Rahnama, in their office. She said, "Dr. Rahnama *loves* her PCOS patients. They do really well on her program because they're not... you know..." and trailed off. I can only imagine what it was I was supposed to "know." That PCOS patients do well on a nutrition program because it's not their "fault" they are fat, they aren't lazy and unmotivated like 'regular' fat people? I don't know what else she could have possibly been thinking besides some version of that. She jokingly made comments that I may need to take medication in order to conceive but that her patients without PCOS were jealous of that. I went to see Dr. Rahnama who wanted me to go on an extremely restrictive, 1,200-calorie diet of deli meats, vegetables, and protein shakes. That was the last time I engaged with Dr. Rosenbaum or her office but I have been healing the wounds of that since, putting off seeing doctors or trusting them. That was five years ago and a new doctor recently questioned Dr. Rosenbaum's PCOS diagnosis and did a new set of bloodwork and pelvic ultrasound. My testosterone levels were completely normal and I did not have cysts on my ovaries. Dr. Rosenbaum diagnosed me based on my weight and my irregular periods. If I had shown up at her office looking emaciated, perhaps I would have gotten the proper diagnosis: an eating disorder. Upon working to resolve those issues around food restriction and obsession with my weight, I have gotten my period regularly for the past year and a half and my weight has stabilized at a place I'm sure would horrify her, but I am so much healthier and happier than when I was in her care. Dr. Rosenbaum did a lot of harm and caused me to feel so much shame that I internalized deeply. I would imagine she is a decent doctor for people she believes to be in acceptable body sizes. If that is not you, please find someone who will treat you with the care and respect you deserve, who is informed in a Health At Every Size approach. I am sorry for not writing this sooner and perhaps stopping others from having the same experience that I did.

I cannot say enough about my experiences w/ Dr. Rosenbaum. She was on call when I was delivering my…read morefirst child back in 2008 at Cedars and while my OB/GYN was on vacation. She showed up, I was having a difficult time dilating during my delivery and she made me feel incredibly safe and comfortable. So sweet and so kind. She made such a huge impact on my experience at Cedars so I knew when I got pregnant the second time around in 2012, she HAD to be my OB/GYN again. Every office visit, and every advice she ever gave me was so comforting and I trust her. I needed her when she came into my life. Let me just make say this as a side note: Sometimes when doctors treat celebs or become celebs themselves, they have a sense of entitlement. Some, not all. I myself have personally experienced this situation with an OB/GYN who use to be on the television show "The Doctors". I won't mention her name here but I will post separate review on my experience w/ her when I miscarried my first child. I mention this because it is obvious that Dr. Rosenbaum is good at what she does. She delivers babies everyday for both regular every day people like you and I, and she also delivers babies for celebs. Yet she remains the same. She treats everyone of her patients the same. With love, respect, and kindness. I had a high-risk pregnancy the second time around and she was there for me every step of the way. What I can say about her office and staff is that they are all very professional. I never had any issues over the years with billing, cancelled appts, etc. I've never been kept waiting for long periods of time for any of my appointments. Parking is easy. Absolutely no complaints!! All love.

What sets her apart is how she combines deep medical knowledge with genuine warmth. She never rushes an appointment -- she listens, answers every question thoroughly, and makes you feel truly cared for rather than just another patient on the schedule. Whether it was a high-risk twin pregnancy or the confusing symptoms of perimenopause, she's approached it all with patience, expertise, and kindness. Simply put, she's the best. If you're looking for an OBGYN who will be with you for the long haul and treat you like a whole person, Dr. McCalister is it.

My poor review is that there is now an over $250+ fee just to be a patient every year.

I thought she would've my OBGYN for life here in LA and now I'm heartbroken to have to switch. Regardless of having the money or not, taking advantage of people who already pay for insurance who need access to good heathcare providers is diabolical.

I had been coming to this office for several months and unfortunately the overall cleanliness,…read moreorganization, and patient communication became a recurring concern. During my most recent visit, multiple surfaces and items in the room were visibly dirty -- including the exam chair, the stirrup covers, and even the wall. There was also a large open jar of numbing compound that appeared discolored and had residue smeared in several areas around the room. These are basic hygiene issues that should be taken seriously in any medical setting. I reached out privately to the office hoping to share these concerns directly and ask where to send photos, but instead of addressing the situation, my patient portal access was suddenly deactivated. That was extremely disappointing, especially since I was trying to communicate respectfully and privately. In addition to the cleanliness concerns, wait times at every appointment were consistently long, even when I was scheduled first thing in the morning ( I was reassured that I would be seen as long as I booked the first appointment. Not only did that never happen, but I was told while I was in the room ready to be examined that she was on her way to work. I often waited over an hour before being seen, and the office frequently seemed disorganized. There was also very little communication regarding care, no notes were provided or printed, and when I asked for clarity on certain medical information, I was simply told to "google it." Everything felt SO RUSHED!!! I genuinely tried to resolve this directly with the clinic before posting here, but being blocked from my own portal left me with no other way to make my experience known. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and improves the hygiene standards and communication with patients moving forward. Lastly, if you get anything done here, please make sure to have them check your insurance first. I paid a lot of money out of pocket and I didn't get any clear communication on why that wasn't under my insurance. ..

There was a kind of familiarity to the visit in that it felt like i was not seeing her for the first time but that i had been a long term client. She did not invalidated my feelings or concerns and addressed them kindly even when they were crazy. She also pointed out things that other dr would brush off so i had chosen to not even bring them up for fear that i would be made to feel stupidn again.
