Very unprofessional , does not follow rules and regulations set forth by the U.S or state of California, which is worrisome for your children's health. The staff is very unprofessional , does not wear any personal protective equipment, which can lead to progressive infections. Very unknowledgable and can not seem to answer basic medical questions. Texting on there phone while dealing with patients as if it was there main priority on a "Professional" work day. talking about there personal life's out loud while dealing with patient care. Not to mention violates the most important rule in medical care which is HIPAA (health insurance portability and accountability act) which is meant to protect patients right to privacy. The medical assistant front office and the male dr which his name is out of question, does not have the appropriate training to deal with young children. Facial gestures speak louder than words. Judge for yourself while entering the perimeter the Ora is unprofessionally negative. These are just my opinions and facts about the office . If you where to ask me falsification of documentation , inappropriate care and professional maturity is not being met. I would rate this office below 1 star .

My parents are both in their 90s and have many medical issues. Dr Ebrahimi is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, kind and caring. She has a fabulous bedside manner and has gone above and beyond to provide excellent care for my parents. My only reluctance in writing this review is that I don't want her to become so in demand that she's hard to get an appointment with!

Ok, he looks almost identical to John Candy. lol He listens well, always keeps time slots open for the Mom's who need him. (which is great for the first time Mom, since I was always in there.)

I don't really know where to start with Dr. G, I've been a patient of his for more than 10 years…read more Obviously a very competent MD, I guess where he stands out the most is that he is a very good listener. To me this translates that he wants as much data about your situation and you personally before he'll recommend what to do. Different people respond to different things. I have had doctors before that are pretty quick to write you a prescription and get you out of their office. This is not the case with Dr. G. I've had 20-30 minute conversations with him about diet, eating out versus cooking at home, sleep, vitamins/supplements, exercise, state of mind / perspective, pretty much everything that effects your health. Since I've been a patient, he has also taken on my brother and my mother (at my recommendation to them). Something that pleasantly surprises me is that for a similar genetic issue my brother and I both have, he treats us differently. It just appeared to me that he took the time to figure out who we were personally and where we are at in life and is treating accordingly. If you trust and defer to your doctor but you are also a strong advocate for your own health then I think he's tops. If you go to the doctor to tell them a few data points and then you want to be off to the pharmacy then he may be good for that too, but I'm not that type of patient so I couldn't comment. My opinion of him is shared by my brother and mom.

He demonstrates his expertise in a holistic way: diet, exercise, relationships, medications, surgeries, etc. I think he's brilliant and very human. In addition I am profoundly grateful that he communicates with the whole care team for the patient. For example, if you need cardio care, he coordinates the data and consults with the other physicians and gives you as much time as you need to understand your options and your diagnoses. This is critical when you're at a juncture between several experts and doctors. He's a real mensch.

I have had much (13 years) experience in dealing with private caregivers and agencies. I know what to look for and how to evaluate, what is important and what is not. The Care Manager we dealt with was a dynamic powerhouse. She focused on getting to know my mother and her needs, eventually picking an appropriate match. She communicated, accommodated, and listened. She was compassionate, responsive, and prompt in addressing all questions and needs. When our caregiver first started, the manager stayed with her for two or three mornings to make sure everything went OK. On a couple of occasions where the caregiver had to be absent for certain reasons, the manager quickly arranged for a substitute. Everything went smoothly from the administrative side as well. The Care Manager explained things clearly and thoroughly, making sure the fine details were addressed. The price is excellent for their services. Also, all Silver Lining employees are licensed and bonded. Silver Lining is selective about who they hire. They train their employees and hold them to high standards. They also try to match personalities and styles to their clients. Silver Lining adapts themselves to any situation (emergency needs, dementia, unusual medical requirements). Each employee made themselves available 24/7 for us in case of questions or emergencies. They followed up frequently to ensure all was going smoothly. My mother and I have nothing but praise and appreciation for this agency, with their "can do" attitude, reliability and integrity. I cannot say enough about them. They are your "go to" for high quality caregiving. Silver Lining is 100% compliant with WHO and CDC COVID-19 guidelines. Their caregivers wear masks and, if deemed appropriate, goggles to protect their clients and staff. I highly recommend Silver Lining for home care that is reasonably priced and superior quality.
