The staff were helpful and the office environment was calm and efficient. When I later had some lab concerns, she reached out personally with a plan and made sure I understood next steps. What I appreciate most is that she balances professionalism with genuine care. you leave the appointment not only informed, but cared for. For anyone looking for a thoughtful, involved primary care physician in the Orinda area, I highly recommend her.

I'm super glad she's much younger than I, so hopefully I won't ever have to find a new doctor.

These type of packages are good for 3 months, so you'll have plenty of time to use up your credits. They're good for guests too! The owner and staff are very friendly and welcoming. The facility is also very clean. We've been back to Beem for their infrared social saunas and red light therapy. You can enjoy the social sauna with another person and you get about 40 minutes in the sauna and 15 minutes to shower. I like how it is very intimate and it's just you and your guest in one sauna room. They provide an iPad so you could play music and watch movies/tv shows while you're in there. If you decide to do an infrared sauna session and a red light therapy session, they provide you with either a wrap or a robe and a tote bag for your belongings, so it's easier for you to move from one room to another. It's definitely a cool experience and you do feel good after sweating out all the toxins from your body. I definitely recommend trying infrared sauna and red light therapy at least once and see how you like it.

I've had this type of treatment done once before but this experience topped it by a landslide. The energy of Beem right from the entrance is welcoming, peaceful, safe, and relaxing. The general manager, Abraham, was very warm and was great at explaining the treatments and benefits. He was very patient with us as we were newer to the services. All of the treatment rooms and the restrooms were very clean, aesthetic, and had great amenities. I loved the cold peppermint towel during the sauna especially and the totes they provide to carry your belongings was so cute! I would love to come back again next time I visit the Bay Area.

Dr. Barrett figured out the issue BEFORE the colonoscopy (I regret having that $3,000 test done now). Anyway, they are very evidence based. They are also very transparent with their costs. Unfortunately, you cannot get this level of care with the way insurance prioritizes saving money through most plans. If you have the luxury to invest in your health- this team is legit worth it :) Shout outs to Ryan who is organized and thorough at paperwork and bloodwork as well.

After wanting a second non-Kaiser opinion on my thyroid and having issues setting up an appointment online, I called and scheduled a video consult. The pre-paperwork was a bit lengthy and during our appointment we went over my story. While I was able to confirm with her that my current medication was the best course of action, I didn't love that I later met with a Kaiser doctor who provided me with documentation that hypothyroid patients can have nasal nerves that go, for lack of a better word, haywire (falls under the term non-allergic rhinitis) and that lowering my dose as she suggested might actually cause the nerve to flare up. Overall I felt like One Medical had a better intake that was more thorough and helpful, and John Muir Allergy was overall more knowledgeable. At the end of the day, the out of pocket cost for the appointment was around $240, and I essentially got what I was looking for which was a discussion about my medication but I don't plan to move forward with Jiva Health.

Dr. Fiedler is probably the most incompetent, medical…read moreprofessional I have ever seen. I liked her energy at the initial visit. Her office staff seems to be nice however I had several incidents occur big red flags which made me question her practice. I tried to leave the office but they have a 60 day cancellation policy which means I was stuck with an incompetent doctor and pay my membership dues for the next 2 months. Fast forward 60 days and they're still trying to charge me for an additional 30 days. No response from the doctor. Money money money.. excuses after another. She cannot even get a simple blood work order in correctly. This woman is an awful excuse and shame for any person in medicine.

At least the Lafayette community can go to Fiedler for free drug prescriptions, did you hear that kids? She took no time to understand my medical history and issues to make an appropriate diagnosis. In all, Fiedler's attitude is shocking, assuming she would be more personable and caring towards her patients when they express their problems rather than disregarding and minimizing them. A waste of an office visit, a waste of money, and a waste of this woman going to school to become a Physician.

I met with Dr. Jacobs on December 12 to go over the changes so we could get the ball rolling and not have a delay in my immune treatment which I require every 3 weeks to stay healthy due to a serious immune disorder. He assured me that it would be handled well. Then almost month later I call back and find out nothing has been done. The office didn't have a new script from the Dr. The contract worker they had hired to deal with insurance benefits at the office still didn't know I had a new pharmacy benefits provider. She was trying to order the old medication from the old benefits provider. So I spent the next two weeks on the phone for entire days - leaving messages, waiting on hold, coordinating between nursing staff (bc the dr was now on vacation), the independent contractor who didn't understand my insurance change, my pharmacy benefits provider and the pharmacy filing the order. Babysitting grown adults who are getting paid to apparently not do their jobs. The office at first admitted to dropping the ball, then they each slowly started to blame other people in the office and I realized what a toxic dysfunctional mess the whole operation was. Perhaps they once were good - the vast majority of these five star reviews are many years old. Today, I think they can handle routine allergy shots. That's their bread and butter. Anything more is a deep stretch for their abilities. In the end I finally got my medication two weeks late and it would have been even later if I hadn't borrowed a medical pump to use from a complete stranger. This was an incredibly stressful process that would have been avoided if people at this office understood how to do their jobs.

My wife and I just completed routine screening procedures at the Center for Gastrointestinal…read moreDisorders, Inc. in Walnut Creek. Recommended by our primary care physician, Dr. S. Saeed Zamani and his staff provided first class medical expertise and service. Our relationship with Dr. Zamani started with a pre-procedure consultation during which he outlined the whole process from start to finish using concise and understandable language and he patiently answered all of our questions and addressed all of our concerns. On the day of the procedure, his entire staff exhibited tremendous efficiency and expertise; from the check-in process, during the preparation process to the post-procedure and discharge phases. Here are few reasons why we were so impressed with Dr. Zamani, his staff and his facilities: 1) strong patient orientation - we were treated with respect throughout every phase of the procedure - all aspects of the procedure were explained clearly and all of our questions were answered with patience and thoroughness; 2) high level of patient engagement - we received a phone call from the anesthesiologist (Dr. Melissa Ennen) the evening before the procedure to review how the anesthesia would be handled and if we had any questions or concerns. Dr. Ennen also provided extremely personal care on the day of the procedure. The nursing staff and technicians were also extremely caring and made the entire experience as effortless as possible; 3) extremely organized and efficient - Dr. Zamani's administrative staff was a pleasure to work with - they handled all of our insurance requirements and pre-procedure instruction communications with acumen; 4) high quality facilities - Dr. Zamani's offices in the Shadelands were first class in terms of cleanliness and ambience; 5) high level of medical expertise - Dr. Zamani's extensive experience was evident in terms of his explanations and his post-procedure review of his findings. All in all, we can highly recommend Dr. Zamani and the Center For Gastrointestinal Disorders without hesitation.

Not here, even early. I apologize to the first nurse, as we should not have forgotten her name, but, we have. She was warm and friendly making us both comfortable...warm blankets . Then we met Dr. Leung...our anesthesiologist. Don't let his youth fool you, he was kind and straightforward, even calling us the night before asking us if we had questions or concerns and explained what would happen, he repeated these steps when we met. They use a mild sedative..new so you don't know what happens and 20 minutes later, you are awake and Judy shows up in recovery. Again..staff was wonderful.

The only negative is the prep..oh well....
