I am a fan a Doctor Phan!…read more As a 65 year old man faced the malady of an enlarged prostate and medicine was no longer an option so I had to pick a procedure, I picked the Rezume method because it had minimal or no side effects. Like most people I did a fair amount of research into picking a surgeon who had a good track record and also had done quite a few of these. Dr. Phan rose to the top because of his reviews and upon meeting him he exudes confidence and humility which is a rare combination in a physician. The procedure turned out great and you couldn't ask for a nicer more caring person than Dr Phan. His practice is what they call a concierge and for basically the price of a cup of coffee per day you get unbelievable access to him and the old adage you get what you pay for certainly applies. Two months post procedure all systems are go. I couldn't recommend him more highly. The support staff is a well oil machine and very peronable.

We traveled over 12 hours round trip to see Dr. Joel Gelman because we were told he was one of only…read moretwo urologists on the West Coast who specialized in my husband's condition. His dermatologist recommended Dr Gelman and another specialist in Utah. We chose California first because it was closer. Unfortunately, our experience was INCREDIBLY DISAPPOINTING! My husband was experiencing severe scrotal lymphedema that continued to worsen despite seeing multiple doctors before we met with Dr Gelman. During our appointment with Dr Gelman, we spent approximately 45 minutes being told that his weight was the problem. Grabbing his belly, calling him fat. COMPLETING HUMILIATING. Told him he needs to get gastric bypass, then maybe we could talk about surgery. What made this even more frustrating was that Dr Gleman has published research and treated patients with much larger cases of scrotal lymphedema, including the patient featured on TLC with a 132 pound scrotum!! My husband was nowhere near that size, yet we were told his weight was the issue and no effort was made to determine the underlying cause of his lymphedema. As we later learned, obesity was NOT the cause of his condition. We later learned that the underlying problem was severe lymphatic dysfunction. His lymphatic system was not properly draining the fluid from the area, which caused the progressive buildup of fluid, inflammation, and tissue. His condition was much more complex than simply being overweight like Dr Gelman blamed the cause on. A little while after his appointment with Dr Gelman, he developed cellulitis that progressed to sepsis where his kidneys began to shut down. We had just switched insurance plans and happened to be in a 15 day coverage gap leaving us with approximately $50,000 in medical bills. He had never spent a single night in a hospital before. Imagine this never would've happened if Dr Gelman actually wanted to help look for a solution instead of being fatphobic. We saw the second specialist at University of Utah who IMMEDIATELY said, "We need to fix this." He immediately recognized the severity of the condition, fought through the insurance hurdles with us, and performed surgery. Looking back, it's heartbreaking to think about how much suffering, time, and money might have been prevented if we had received a more thorough evaluation and a willingness to investigate the cause instead of attributing everything to weight. I would never recommend Dr Joel Gelman.

I had a very frustrating experience with The Clark Center Surgery…read more I needed to reschedule my surgery due to nerves and wanting more time to fully understand the risks. That is when I was told about a $500 cancellation fee within two weeks, something that was never clearly communicated. My entire scheduling process was handled through text, not a single phone call, and even at my pre op appointment exactly two weeks before surgery, this fee was never mentioned. When I called, I was repeatedly told "it is the policy" without any real explanation. I asked to speak to a manager, and the assistant administrator, Shannon, called me back. Unfortunately, she was very difficult to deal with. Her tone was stern and dismissive, and I barely had a chance to explain my concerns before she said, "Angela, it is our policy," speaking slowly in a way that felt condescending. I explained that I was not calling to argue that they have policies. My concern was the lack of communication and the fact that everything was scheduled so close to that two week window. I asked to speak with the administrator since she reports to them, but she refused and said, "No, this is my job, and no one will be calling you back." At one point, she also said, "Well, I am going to charge your credit card on file," which was completely inappropriate. I fully understand that offices have policies, but this is surgery, clear communication matters. Patients should not be expected to rely on fine print from an initial visit when surgery was not even planned yet. Even on my preop, it was not mentioned. I do want to say Dr. Clark and Carrie have been great, but because of how this was handled, I will not be returning.

CHARGED AS ER HOSPITAL VISIT INSTEAD OF DOCTOR'S VISIT! My…read morehusband and I are currently fighting a bill because Dr. Lee's office is billing this as a hospital bill instead of a doctor's visit and they refuse to fix the billing codes. The charges are astronomical because it's as if my husband walked into the ER for and ER visit and labs (imagine how much more hospitals charge for this than a regular doctor). So we have now received a bill for almost $600 plus another bill from a lab that is "out-of-area" (without my husband's consent). If you make a regular doctor's visit appointment, BEWARE that you will be charged as if you went to the hospital at UCI instead of the doctor's office where you made the appointment. Please see 2 photos attached. There are more charges, but this shows how they are billing with hospital codes.We have seen several doctors who have offices in medical centers and have never been billed this way. This is unacceptable and we will continue to fight this!

Problems can be closely aligned in that area of the body and I'd rather just see one Dr for all the female issues. This office really feels more like the "old time" Drs office where people know you and really care. Not just pushing you through like many medical offices do. They listen to you, and then treat you like an individual, and think about the problems you are having and how to help you with testing or treatment. I could tell that PA Carrie, who was very understanding, was really thinking about how to help me resolve my issues. Sometimes it's hard to talk about female issues, but in this office they make you feel completely comfortable and you won't feel nervous about opening up about your personal female issues whether urinary or problems your female workings. I highly recommend this office, Dr Clark, and the PA Carrie as well. They will take good care of you.

I was admitted to the Hospital at the end of Aug with a blood infection and a 9x13 kidney stone…read more Dr. Bui was assigned to me. I actually only saw him briefly while admitted. It was after I was released that this office put a sour taste in my mouth. I called the office to schedule a follow up appointment to schedule surgery for stone removal surgery as well as removal of my nephrostomy bag. I was specifically in contact with Joselin G. She never returned my phone calls. I ended up back in the emergency room and it wasn't until then did I actually receive a call back. I was scheduled an appointment with another urologist, Leah Nakamura. At my appointment, once the Urologist realized I was a cash patient, she treated me as if I was completely wasting her time. She spoke to me as if I was a total idiot for even considering surgery with her. Not even knowing my financial situation or what I was capable of paying out of pocket. Move forward a couple days, I was contacted by Bernice with a surgery date of October 28th. I also requested an estimated cost and was told I would receive it. I never did. But assumed my surgery date was still in place. Today (Oct 8th) I reached out to their office again and spoke to Joselin G. To cancel my Oct 28th appointment because I was able to obtain insurance that they did not accept. I was told that I did not even have an appointment!! Even though it was in the chat portal. I have now had this stone and nephrostomy bag for over a month and have been in the ER twice! The level of incompetence from this office has caused me so much stress and anxiety. I would never refer this office to anyone unless they want to be treated like sh*t.

I'm an avid hiker that was living with a bilateral inguinal hernia for years. For the longest time,…read moreI didn't worry about them because they didn't really bother me, other than the fact that they weren't pretty to look at. I knew the day would eventually come for surgery, so I went online and searched for a doctor that specializes in hernia repair. I found a doctor who I thought was one of the best out there, Dr. Harris from California Hernia Specialists in Newport Beach, CA. He provides a collection of information and videos on his website that come from his years of performing hernia surgeries. Well, the day did finally come when my hernias did start to hurt, so I made the call to Dr. Harris. Within a week, I had a consultation, and 25 days later, July 31, 2026 to be exact, Dr. Harris did the laparoscopic procedure. Recovery was easy and I would say pain-free with over-the-counter pain medication. Having done the surgery, I wished I had it done years ago, from a purely aesthetic point of view. I may even have been foolish to have waited so long in case they became life-threatening. I took 3 weeks off from hiking on the advice of Dr. Harris, and now I'm back out there doing my usual hikes and other activities with no discomfort. I took his advice about icing the surgical area for almost two days and nights. Here's my advice on icing: Purchase five or six small frozen bags of sweet corn. Frozen sweet corn stays frozen longer than peas because of its density. Put boxer shorts on and then put tighty-whitey underwear on over the boxer shorts. Slip the frozen corn between the two layers of underwear to avoid direct contact with your skin. Take the recommended dosage of Tylenol and set the timer for 3 hours. When the timer goes off, remove the sweet corn package and replace it with another package of frozen sweet corn. Now take Ibuprofen and reset the timer for another 3 hours. Repeat this cycle every 3 hours. When placing the frozen sweet corn back in the freezer for reuse, be sure to flatten down the package so it's not lumpy when you take it out for later use. I did this round the clock. My bedroom is upstairs, and I had no problem whatsoever going downstairs to grab another bag of frozen sweet corn. BTW, at the end of each 3-hour session, the sweet corn was still cold, not frozen, but still cold. One other piece of advice: purchase a bottle of Phillips Milk of Magnesia. I needed to empty my bowels 24 hours after the surgery, and the stool softener tablets I had taken earlier weren't doing anything, and I was beginning to feel uncomfortable. 30 minutes after taking the Milk of Magnesia, my bowels cleared, and I was back to being regular again. Above all, follow Dr. Harris's advice; he knows what he's talking about because he's seen/heard it all from patients that followed his advice and those who didn't. When I went in for my initial consultation with Dr. Harris, it felt like I had known him for years. The reason being I had watched many of his videos over the years before having him perform the procedure. On the day of the surgery, I had no worries at all because I knew I was in the best of hands with Dr. Harris.
