    office is very nice.

    First baby for my wife and i, so we are so exited. It was no easy looking for a doctor to care for my wife for the next 7 months but we are glade we found Dr.Lipeles he answered all of our questions and beyond he is very passionate in what he does. Front office Zoey is very pleased and knowledgeable she took the time to schedule our next office visits for the next 4 months she understood we have busy schedules and need to have everything in our calendars in advance. The office is very nice.

    Dirty little hole in the wall clinic with a stifling hot waiting room (in December) in a bad neighborhood.

    After a disastrous appointment with the PA at their Carson Street location, I foolishly agreed to to see Dr Lipeles at 12321 Hawthorne Blvd, on 12/7/23. I sat in their stifling hot, and filthy waiting room (at 12321 Hawthorne Street- This location) for nearly 2 hours. They called me back, took my weight, and then insisted on a urine sample. I asked why. They said it's standard before procedures. I said what procedure. They mistakenly thought I was getting a highly invasive procedure, when I was just scheduled for a consultation to meet Dr Lipeless and discuss my situation. I agreed to the urine sample, and they told me NOT to put the cap on. They had 9 containers of urine all sitting capless on the counter. Then they sent me back to their waiting room. I waited for a long time and started getting calls from a blocked number. Stephanie asked me to pick them up. I did and "Cynthia" who informed me that she was the manager of ALL Marina Obgyn's and that I should just go home- I was not going to be seen today. I told her I was already here (in the waiting room at 12321 Hawthorne Blvd). She said that I was banned from their practice. I asked why. She said that "a doctor has made a complaint about you". I informed her that I have Never met with any of their doctors, yet. She insisted I had. I said "who" and she said "Jessica Utech". I informed her Jessica was not a doctor- but a PA, who has scheduled this appointment for me here at 12321 Hawthorne blvd. She said "yes she is a physician". I said "Physician's assistant". Cynthia said "same thing". I told her a Physician's Assistant is not the same as a doctor, and she insisted they are! SMH. I asked her why I received SEVERAL texts and emails confirming this 12/7/23 appointment at 12321 Hawthorne Blvd, and why I was even prompted to "check in" online the day before, if I was "banned" from their practice. She didn't answer. Of course, now their office is claiming that I had a visit with them, so that they can bill my insurance. Attached are photos proving that this doctor is now claiming I had an appointment on 12/7 at this 12321 hawthorne Blvd location, even though I was refused service, and I asked them to discard the urine sample they insisted on collecting. They said they would discard it. They have no respect for a patient's time, and they set my health care back 2 months.

    Chill waiting room when it gets busy

    I've been a patient here for a year and I have to say, the level of care and attention I have…read morereceived outweighs the $250 admin fee. I understand it's not something everyone can be down with, but after having a very base level of care with other gynos, it's something I will pay to continue being a patient here. I had to get an MRI done to take a look at my fibroids and everything else going on down there and at first, my insurance approved it, but I was out of state during the approval window my insurance company gave. So that approval expired. When I finally got back in town, we tried to get a new approval. Big surprise, my insurance company denied it. They denied it 2 more times, but Dr. Rodriguez's office was PERSISTENT and they kept on it and got it DONE!!!!! I am so thankful to them for their energy and keeping their "eyes on the prize"! I've NEVER had another doctor's office be this way. Sylvia Chen is the best...she does my annuals and goes through everything with me and explains everything and is more than happy to stay and answer questions...there is never a feeling of being rushed. The sonographer is also awesome...she put me at ease during my pelvic ultrasounds. I had a surgical consult with Dr. Rodriguez because my uterus is just riddled with fibroids and she was the absolute best. So kind and caring and presented me with the options available and helped me to understand each one so that I could decide what is best for me and my comfort level. She also cleared up A LOT of questions for me regarding specific procedures and I walked away with clarity AND peace of mind. Seriously...the bedside manner and positive attitudes of the doctors, nurses, medical assistants and admin staff is above and beyond of any practice I've ever experienced. So thankful they are here and I know they have my back...and nether regions. ;)

    She charges $250 just to see her even for a routine check-up. That is out of pocket not thru…read moreinsurance.

After I had my baby and had to meet with "Judy" & go over my birth control options as a first time mom I asked for "the shot" since it's what I had used before and she responded in a very condescending way "this isn't planned parenthood". I still don't know what she meant by that but it wasn't nice. I still don't recall me going in there for BC, just a post pregnancy check up, was she upset cause I opted for NO birth control???? the tone still doesn't sit well with me after 4 years. now in my 2nd pregnancy going somewhere else because I did not like her. I'd really like to know why she was bothered by me asking for the shot. And what's wrong with planned parenthood? SMH

No shit?!! That receptionist is pathetic and needs to not work in customer service. With the current times, people need to be a little more sensitive and more informative moving forward. The 30 seconds on that phone really messed up my busy day and search for my partners health solutions. Please get a new receptionist
