The idiots at the front desk kept insisting that he was not a doctor there and made me stay for, with my infected breast , twelve hours, and would not let me leave because I had an infection which, by the way I got in their filthy operating room. They really are THE WORST! They made me "sleep" in a closet with no ceiling, just a huge fluorescent light above. Trying to make it less like a horror film, I made a Joke about the light saying the only person who could sleep here would have to be already dead . The moronic orderly screamed at me saying, "You want me to write you up!" I'm gonna write you up". Not knowing what that meant, I said "Fine" so he did, which meant I had to have someone sit with me in this closet. He did for a while, then when he got called, he put some guy who was dressed exactly like a cocaine mule, to watch over me!!!! he wouldn't let me put my eye moisturizer in, with "what are you doing? Give me that!!! When dawn finally broke, I was wheeled into a room but still not allowed to see my Dr. Meanwhile the infection raged in my breast , making it fully red. DO NOT GO TO CEDARS -SINAI hospital ever again, I know I won't. When I finally got to see Dr Sokolov, I had to stay to try to get infection under control, but because I had to wait so long, I wound up on IV for 11 months, while he worked so hard to find the right medication. I wound up going home with a pic line so I could infuse myself with a combination of 2 different medications. Do NOT EVER GO TO CEDARS-SINAI HOSPITAL. It was one of the worst experiences I ever had!!!!But Dr Sokolov, I couldn't recommend him highly enough.

She knows we need to push these infections but also knows when to pull back. Healing chronic Lyme is a dance - a dance that she's willing to do with you. I'd sell my home to go live in a tent near Dr Lehmans office because that's how life saving she is. I don't think I've ever left a review like this but these types of doctors never get enough credit. Dr Lehman, Fernanda, and Jose are my heroes!

Avoid AHF -- A Disappointing and Unprofessional Experience…read more If you value your time, health, and respectful care, avoid AHF at all costs. I'm writing this review after taking several days to calm down and reflect so I can give an honest and fair assessment. My goal is to help future patients make an informed decision before trusting their healthcare to this organization. 1. Appointment Experience: No Empathy, No Flexibility I had an appointment with Dr. Josiah Strawser at AHF Westside HCC on Wilshire Blvd (Beverly Hills) at 8:40 AM. Despite leaving early from Orange County, I was delayed by heavy morning traffic and arrived approximately 35 minutes late. Upon arrival, the receptionist was polite and said she would try to fit me in or see if I could be seen after any cancellations. I patiently waited another 35 minutes in the lobby -- only to be told I would not be seen at all and had to reschedule. The office manager, Pedro, came out and coldly stated it was "company policy" that anyone more than 15 minutes late is automatically denied care, regardless of the circumstances. After driving 2.5 hours, I was turned away without even a brief consultation. This rigid and uncaring approach demonstrates zero compassion or understanding for patients. Healthcare should be about helping people, not hiding behind inflexible corporate policies. Ironically, AHF's mission claims to provide "care and respect for all." My experience proved the opposite. 2. Lack of Care and Respect for Patients Dr. Strawser's refusal to see me -- even for a short visit -- shows a lack of empathy and professionalism. Let's be honest: most patients aren't seen by their doctor exactly on time, and visits rarely last more than 5-10 minutes. The claim that there was "no time" to see me felt like a poor excuse. I left feeling like a number, not a patient. My health, time, and well-being were clearly not important to them. Sadly, I've also witnessed other patients -- especially those with lower income or on assistance programs -- being treated with similar disregard. Every patient, regardless of insurance type, deserves respect, dignity, and fair treatment. 3. Concerning Billing Practices This isn't my first negative experience with AHF. About six months ago, I had a telehealth appointment that was conducted by a nurse over the phone. However, my insurance statement later showed charges as if I had been seen by a doctor -- plus additional services I never received. It took multiple calls to get the billing corrected. This raises serious concerns about potential fraudulent billing practices that could affect other patients who might not even notice such discrepancies. 4. Poor Location and Parking On top of everything else, this location does not offer free parking. The parking garage charges $2 per 15 minutes, and by the end of a typical visit, you could easily pay $15-$28 just to park. It's an unreasonable cost and adds unnecessary frustration to an already poor experience.  Final Thoughts AHF has shown me that it prioritizes profit and policy over patient care. There was no flexibility, compassion, or accountability in how I was treated. If you want respectful treatment, quality care, and honest billing, look elsewhere. * If you have private insurance, seek care from an independent specialist or private practice. * If you rely on public healthcare, county clinics tend to have better oversight and accountability than AHF. AHF's lack of empathy, questionable billing, and dismissive attitude toward patients make it clear: this is not an organization that puts patients first.

It's like the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. I had a simple complaint about the lack of care I received from his new P.A. "R. F" when I spoke with Dr. Pardo on the phone he was very dismissive and condescending. He literally couldn't care less about the care his P.As under him were providing. It felt very much like it was all about the money and that substandard care was something he did not have time to be bothered with addressing. - Dan Mitchell

What a nightmare dealing with this office and the P.A. Allison Nuques. I submitted a refill request…read morefor my medication last week. Usually they get back to me within 24 hours and refill it. I hadn't heard anything so I messaged them. Someone in Allison Nuques's office messages back and says that I have to set up an appointment AND be seen FIRST before I can get a refill. UM WHAT?! Im already out. I can understand asking me to set up an appointment to be seen before the NEXT refill but to hold my medication hostage for months until you have appointment availability is not acceptable. (And no this is not a controlled substance or pain med) So I call and get the rudest and most unhelpful customer service rep named Norvina who says there's no way for me to reach Allison's office but that he can set up an appointment for me. That doesn't really help me but sure. He then tells me she has no availability for 2 months. So you're telling me that Allison expects me to go months without my medication?? Who does that? He then says he can set up an appointment with a different provider for me but that there's no guarantee that provider can refill my prescription.. So then what would be the point of that? I ask multiple times for him to request a call back from Allison's office and after asking 5 times he finally agrees to send a message to Allison's office requesting a call back. I also requested to speak to operations manager and he said "oh, I can type out a complaint for you and send it to her. Just tell me what you want to say". Um, no thanks. I'd rather talk to her directly. If I needed to be seen before my refill then Allison's office should have told me that when they filled my last refill. Not after I run out and request a refill. Wildly unprofessional and negligent. ***wanted to add that a female employee from Allison Nuques office called me yelling at me after I posted this review. They have the most unprofessional staff I've ever encountered***

But she continued to lecture me about cancer screenings using fear tactics ("I knew a 25 year old who died from breast cancer bc she wasn't doing daily exams"). Mind you, I'm here literally for a cancer screening - so why are you trying to freak me out?? Next, the management. When I left, I said "do I need to schedule my follow up?" And the lady at the desk said no, your doctor scheduled it. You'll get a confirmation in your email. Never got any correspondence so I assumed no news is good news and forgot about it. Then I get the most unprofessional, goofy ahh text threatening me with a $250 no show fee. I was still able to take my telehealth call even though nobody told me about it, which makes this even crazier. I still had my appointment. There are so many clinics and better offices to be taken care of in LA. Just steer clear of this sh*t show.
