Dr. Oh is singularly the best doctor I have ever met in my entire life. He is extremely…read morecompassionate, understanding, and is NOT A WHORE! I check my medical bills to see how much he gets off of my visits and sometimes it's a mere $7 from the HMO. But he REFUSES to give unnecessary tests and if he's not competent enough to do it himself, he gives the best references. When he suspected I had a heart murmur, he referred me to one of the most competent cardiologists in the area. It ended up being not too serious, but being the stubborn tard I am I didn't get it checked out at first. But then he was so persistent that I did. He has a delightful sense of humor that can put up with my smartass sarcasm. When I get my shots or my blood drawn he always says something that puts me at ease. And unlike most first generation Korean doctors, he isn't condescending. And lastly, he isn't judgmental whatsoever. About anything. Ever.

He…read morehas served me tirelessly and guided me through a variety of illnesses that could have killed me. As a result of his outstanding care I now have a 6 year old son and I lead a very full life. Thank you for that. And his staff is super professional but more importantly they don't treat you like an appointment number in a notebook. You feel like they genuinely care about your well being. Almost like they are individually invested in your health success. That is an absolute rarity in this managed healthcare space where everyone seems to be cutting back on services and trying to jam more patients into every day. Thank you fro all that you do. Best, Craig

My physician referred me to Dr. Averill because of the palpitations. In under 5 minutes in the…read moreoffice, I had a desire to leave. The receptionist did not greet me or even acknowledge my presence, although I was the only patient there. Despite my checking in online as requested, I was receiving messages to check in again. After the third message, I approached the receptionist to ask her politely about the pervasive messages. The answer through her teeth, "Nevermind." Another unfriendly employee (a nurse?) invited me in and, without a word, pointed at the scales. Later I saw she had subtracted no weight of the sneakers and clothes. Dreadful experience through the EKG. For the first time, no paper gown to change into or asking to at least remove my bra. Very unpleasant experience when the nurse kept raising my tank top and bra, poking under it a hundred times. Then Dr. Averill came in. He was poised but seemed... indifferent. Just asked a couple of questions, took notes, offered no opinion, and ordered a halter heart monitor for 24 hours. Another session of poking under my bra from the nurse who could not make the device work for the next 30 minutes, while looking into the two manuals and alternating the two batteries in her hand. When the doctor told her to get a new battery, the device turned on but showed the wrong time. The nurse did not bother to reset the time. Just recorded the time difference. No one gave me directions to keep a journal. The ever-angry receptionist suggested another appointment, but I did not want to come back to the unfriendly office and asked for the results to be sent to me. She said I could view them on my patient portal on their site. I came back the next day to return the monitor. With no desire to spend anymore time at the office, I asked to be let into a room to remove the device in privacy. Shocking advice--use the public restroom next to the elevator. I did. The receptionist promised to download the test results. Four days later, no results. I called to inquire. After keeping me on hold, the clerk asked for my phone number to call me back. No call back. No results.

I found him to be arrogant and in a hurry, he didn't really care to hear about my symptoms or how I was struggling daily. Said we can order some blood test but I think you should stick with your neurologist to figure out what's wrong with you. It was my neurologist that referred me to him??? Second visit, as I was referred back to him, he enters the room smirking and verbatim says to me "So what they send you back to me because no one can figure out whats wrong with you?, I guess I can run more blood work but doubt it will show anything. I ask is it possible I have Fibromyalgia, grabs my calf and ask did that hurt, before I could answer he says so no you do not have Fibromyalgia. Six months as my symptoms get worse and I see a new doctor, guess what I have been diagnosed with, Fibromyalgia.

When I mentioned this to Dr. Etawil, who is after all on some level responsible for his staff, he said the office supervisor would call. That was a month ago and I have not heard from them.

extremely unsatisfied and frustrated with my experience with Dr. Maramelis at Neuromedical…read moreDiagnostic. to begin with, it is impossible to get in contact with anyone in this office... whether it is to ask questions, reschedule an appointment, medication refills, even paying medical bills was laborious and frustrating.. it is impossible to speak to anyone, just leaving countless voicemails and no returned phone calls.. If you want to talk to someone, you need to show up. This office does not use any electronic system database and everything is paper/files. It took me months to get a follow up referral (that the doctor had recommended) because they had not submitted the referral. I called the office countless times, left voicemails, and no responses. Once I finally spoke to someone, they said they'd be submitting the referral before the end of the week.... One month later and it still wasn't submitted until I went into person and asked for it to be done. Additionally, when I had an appointment with Dr. Marmarelis, I was disappointed in the lack of professionalism I experienced. After waiting 30 minutes for my appointment, in the middle of my appointment, he stepped out to take a phone call and in doing so, left my files AND another patients files in the room with me. It concerns me and makes me wonder if my own records are being left haphazardly around the office and my information is not being protected. The doctor did not seem to truly care of my symptoms, previous history or helping me improve my health. He quickly prescribed Topamax, while making a disgusting comment that "women love it because they lose weight." I was truly appalled. Then said my migraines were something to just manage, despite being truly debilitating at times. Overall, I am extremely disappointed with my experience and urge everyone to stay away from this place.

Dr. Ostrom is particularly well suited for patients who take an active role in their own health. He listens carefully, explains the options and alternatives, and works with you to develop the best course forward.

Our Christmas experience with Dr. Elad…read more My partner had been Dr Elad's patient for approximately one year. He will have to face open heart surgery due to Elad's oversight (in my opinion). My partner's life was saved only by an amazing team of doctors at Eisenhower in Palm Springs. We were very lucky to have been there over the holidays. My partner is young and will now have irreversible damages to his body. I had been with my partner during the office visits, and I can attest to Elad's conduct. Not only had Dr. Elad been impolite, combative and lackadaisical with his diagnosis he also dismissed my partner's complains of heart palpitations. At the last office visit in late November, Dr Elad said that "there is nothing he can do" and that my partner "had to live with that condition." On top of it he forgot to listen to my partner's heart. Three weeks later we desperately called Dr. Elad for help. My partner had gained 20 pounds of water weight and complained of shortness of breath. Dr Elad suggested either to wait until after the holidays to see him, or go to the emergency room in Palm Springs. We chose the emergency room and it was the right choice over doctor Elad. Dr Elad had not followed up with us since.
