    Wanted to pull my review of Dr. Sorotzkin from 2009 into this listing since she's moved practices…read more While they are below (I think), the most pertinent part is: _____ "Dr. Sorotzkin is my primary physician and has been for eight years. She's been nothing but caring and practical, in addition to being a great diagnostician. She's gone the extra mile a number of times, and once in particular when I went in with severe abdominal pain and she "nailed" the diagnosis, called ahead to the ER with instructions, checked in that night and was persistent in getting me the surgery I needed when the on call surgeon was attempting to delay the surgery to the next morning (presumably because she wasn't wanting to stay later than expected). Dr. Sorotzkin's persistence paid off, and I got my surgery within the hour (around midnight). I'd recommend her to anyone. I rarely write reviews but when reading these (just found them after searching to verify the address) I was prompted to register and post because they are so at odds with my experience (see her at least three times a year for eight years). I think it's great how for common illnesses, they will work you in that day to see a physician's assistant who can do a basic exam and write prescriptions - or bring in a doctor if it's more serious. I've recommended her to others, all of whom had similarly positive results. I hate to see anyone like her get a bad rep - I've had many doctors in my life, in many parts of the country, and I'd rate her among the top."

    I'm glad that Susan L wrote that review about the front desk not being professional. My last visit…read morethere, I had experienced the same thing, but now they're paying attention to the patients instead of laughing and chatting high-pitched at that front desk. Today I was treated very well and professionally by the woman at the right side of the desk. They previously were my only complaint about the office, and now I can focus on how fabulous Dr. Ruth Sorotzkin is! She reads the notes carefully from all the previous visits I've had, offers suggestions for preventative care, listens well to my input and quickly follows up with an Rx or an Imaging Request. She's fun, she's funny, and she's clever on top of being a thorough primary care doctor. I'm proud to have her as my PCP.

    Five stars isn't enough for Dr. Freese and her team…read more I first met Dr. Freese when I was uninsured and looking for answers. At the time, I was experiencing symptoms that many others had attributed to anxiety, migraines, stress, or random bad luck. Dr. Freese and the other volunteer physicians listened, took my concerns seriously, and looked at the bigger picture instead of dismissing what I was experiencing. Eventually, I was diagnosed with a stroke in my right cerebellum, along with atypical seizures and ongoing neurological issues. Living with the aftermath has been challenging, but Dr. Freese has always approached my care with compassion, patience, and a genuine curiosity to find the underlying cause rather than simply treating symptoms. More recently, she has continued to help me navigate the lasting effects of my stroke, including muscle fasciculations, seizures, and chronic back pain. Even when things become stressful or confusing, she continues to advocate for me and help find solutions. What stands out most isn't just her medical knowledge. It's that she listens. She treats you like a person instead of a problem to solve, and for someone living with chronic medical conditions, that means more than I can adequately put into words. I know that whether I send a message, make an appointment, or need help during a difficult situation, Dr. Freese and her team will treat me with kindness, professionalism, and compassion. I'm incredibly grateful to have her as my physician.

    I was very happy with Dr Melamed, and once she left, the other providers were not to my…read moresatisfaction. Dr Melamed is courteous; she listens attentively and does not preach to you. She has excellent bedside manners, and she really cares. The office staff is ok but needs to improve.

    Urgent Care Review Only…read more How I spent today. Sunday. Allegedly "Funday". Fun? Not so much, seriously, not so much. Three days ago my hubby complained of fatigue, left sore throat pain, left ear pain. Against my admonishment, he continued to go about his business pure pluck until it wasn't. Immediately rapid Covid tested both of us. Negative two days in a row. Hey, he breathes where I breathe. Sunday, allegedly "Funday" would it be mimosas or urgent care? The latter. He kept telling me he went to UCLA urgent care. I Yelped it. Uh huh, nothing there. Finally, he found a business card in his Rolodex for here. (Yeah, who has one of those? He does.) Since we're both in the St. Johns' Providence system, I recommended we go to urgent care here today (no forms to fill out, etc.) since at the beginning of the pandemic lock down with zero home testing available, he was sick. He went here. Was it a cold or was it Covid then? Cold. Praise be! "Call them from that Rolodex card!", I yelled to determine if care is available on Sunday. It is. M-F: 8:30AM - 7:30PM Saturday & Sunday: 10:00AM - 2:30PM (Doors promptly lock at 2:20PM). Arrived at 11:30AM. Processed and seen by noon even with a few folks ahead. Vitals (A-OK), Covid, Strep test taken, negative. GREAT doctor! Professionalism with a capital "P". Sent home with OTC med Rx and to return or contact primary physician, or EMS if symptoms worsen. P.S. Photos and videos are prohibited! Couldn't even snap a pic of the flyer saying so without getting in trouble...
