    Banerjee for a second opinion and liked him so much that I decide to make him my primary oncologist.

But that is no excuse for every person in the building to be rude. I should have trusted my gut when I read the previous Yelp reviews. I will not be back.

    I had two back-to-back appointments at this location, and while I take ownership for running behind…read moredue to unusually heavy traffic (my 30-minute drive turned into much longer), the overall experience was still extremely frustrating. I originally planned to arrive around 2:15 to check in for my 2:30 appointment, but I ended up pulling in right at 2:30. I even tried calling while en route to let someone know, but there was no way to reach a live person. Most medical offices offer at least a 15-minute grace period, so I thought arriving at the appointment time would still be okay. Unfortunately, the unclear directions made everything worse. The signage only listed Suites 130-160 while I was looking for Suite 170, and I ended up on the wrong side of the building. I asked around, but no one could point me in the right direction. I didn't find the correct suite until 2:50, at which point I was told they could not see me for either my 2:30 or 3:00 appointment. What would help tremendously is a direct way to contact the office for real-time assistance. Even a simple heads-up over the phone letting me know they wouldn't be able to see me would have saved me a lot of unnecessary stress and wandering around the building. To make matters worse, while I was on hold trying to reschedule (over 19 minutes), I overheard one of the front-desk employees say, "She got lost? Maybe she should try coming at 2 pm." I was shocked at the lack of empathy. This is a breast imaging center, patients come here often dealing with stress, fear, and uncertainty. Comments like that are deeply disappointing and certainly not reflective of compassionate patient care. This experience could be greatly improved with clearer directions, accessible communication, and a bit more understanding from staff.

    I do not have enough words to express how amazing Dr. Marin Xavier at Scripps is!!!…read more I had a terrible experience at City of Hope! Doctors never reached out or knew my name after months, appointment were months behind and/or the day of your appointment the infusion rooms would be two to three hours behind. I chose to leave and find a new treatment center. I was blessed to find Dr. Xavier at Scripps in San Diego who was referred by a friend. She reached out within days, knew my history, was kind, compassionate, and willing to help. She is such a pleasure to meet with and always thorough in explaining what is happening; providing detail in terms we can understand. She responds to my emails the same day! She doesn't have her support staff reach out unless it's a basic question, like med refill. A cancer journey is horrid, and it takes an amazing doctor to make it a pleasant in knowing that your doctor is doing all she can to help and at the same time allowing you to have a voice in the decision process. Scripps Cancer Center overall is the best, but having a great doctor is the added bonus. Thank you!!!`

    This Dr. here is the BEST DOCTOR I have ever met in my entire life. Her heart was born to care and…read moreit shows. My prayer is that she never becomes so routine that what makes her stand out never goes away. She connects with her patients and forms a bond unlike many other doctors. While others are practicing medicine she seems to have become a scholar in her field. She has never brushed me off and always make herself available. She has even called me to check on me. On a scale one to ten, I give her a million. If I had a word for her, it would be, "Continue being you and never become common in your field. YOU stick out like a sore thumb just being you!

    My wife came here with stage 4 cancer, we did a lot of reviewing and saw this doctor office as a…read moregood option. However we unfortunately got Dr Tracey as our doctor. Dr Tracey experience has only be in the military and her experience was terrible. Although my wife's chemo has been going well we've had insane issues with Dr Tracey. She's miss prescribed multi medications ( one time the pharmacy called us and even refused to fill it because she prescribed an inhaler for a runny nose). She also has very limited knowledge in opioid & benzos, she will over prescribe and then under prescribe. She almost made my wife go through opioid withdrawal until I had to explain to her how opioids work. She's had my wife come into chemo and forgot to order her chemo drugs and we had to go home for 3 days. She's doesn't know any side effects and in facts we've had to explain to her what medications do what. It's pretty crazy that our chemo doctor doesn't know the chemo side effects. My wife and I both work in healthcare and were amazed how much education we had to give her as a chemo doctor. Upon asking for a new doctor to see because Dr Tracey at this point was messing with my wife physically, and mentally. Everytime she would call because she was out of meds she would have to argue with Dr Tracey who would always claim "I just prescribed your medication" and then would get into an actual argument with my wife for her then to realize she was wrong and then would order her meds. This happened 3 documented times. Today we asked to see a new doctor because of dr Tracey. She has made this entire experience 10x worse. It's very apparent she's not ready for this. After we requested to see another doctors office this office is telling us we're not able to see another doctor (even though there are plenty others). I've never been more disappointed with a facility and we are grateful we documented all the mistakes and malpractice Dr Tracey was apart of. We have requested to speak to another doctor but as of now nothing is happening. IF YOU GO HERE AVOID "DR TRACEY" SHES BRAND NEW AND TERRIBLE. Cancer is a serious thing and no one should be treated the way Dr Tracey treats her patients

    Dr. Saleh is very nice, but get copies of ALL your labs and test results, and do your own homework…read morebefore trusting his diagnosis, and be prepared to advocate for yourself! I was referred to Dr. Saleh due to lab tests that suggested that I either had an infection or a rare form of cancer. (With my labs, the odds are +/- 85% in favor of an infection, but no one ever bothered to check further - the nurse practitioner at the PCP's office just shuffled me off to oncology/hematology, and once you're in that system, it's almost impossible to get out.) We spent almost a year and tens of thousands of dollars undergoing bone marrow biopsies, xrays and genetic testing, but the results just didn't match the diagnostic criteria for the rare cancer they apparently hoped I had. Since ruling out infection is one of the required criteria for diagnosing this cancer, I finally argued Dr. Saleh into running a few inexpensive tests for antibodies to several common bacterial and viral infections, and I had antibodies to more than a couple of them, which warranted further investigation. Dr. Saleh was amazed, and referred me to an infectious disease specialist - an obnoxious, obese man who refused to even examine me, because he said that based on his experience with previous patients, I was probably just a malingerer who was seeking a disability retirement! Ignoring the fact that my lab tests were off the charts, the infectious disease quack then called Dr. Saleh and suggested that I be referred to a psychiatrist, 'cause my problems must all be in my head! Dr. Saleh then said there was nothing more that he could do, except to diagnose me with cancer and put me on chemo. Thank goodness I refused the chemo!. A few months later, I began seeing a private doctor, and he put me on a low dose of a mild antibiotic for another issue. Magically, my labs improved significantly (although not entirely normal,) and stayed improved. This suggested that I probably had one or more infections - not a rare cancer. Fast forward another 3 years: In late 2016, I got pneumonia, and was given a really strong antibiotic, and suddenly, for the first time in almost 20 years, my labs were almost normal. In the year since then, my labs have repeatedly been almost normal. My response to antibiotics strongly suggests that I had an infection all along - an infection for which Dr. Saleh and his pals refused to treat me, and left me suffering for YEARS.
