This clinic has been one of the most frustrating healthcare experiences I've had as a parent. At our first visit, they did not have the vaccines available. The doctor ordered blood work on my 11-year-old. When I asked if there was a reason, the answer was no--just because of her age. My daughter is a healthy athlete, and this felt unnecessary. At the second visit, when the vaccines were finally in, I was pressured to agree to additional shots that weren't required, and treated rudely when I refused. My daughter, who is already fearful of shots, was quietly crying. Instead of offering comfort, the nurse spoke to her harshly, told her to stop, and warned that if she moved it would hurt. This only frightened her more, and afterward the shots were painful for days. Experiences like this make children lose trust in doctors. Even worse, the vaccines were not entered properly in the state system. After the second visit, the school nurse checked twice--first finding nothing entered, then later finding the records locked. She explained only the clinic could lock or unlock them. I had to go in person just to get a printed copy. It felt like unnecessary hoops to jump through, made worse by staff who were sharp and unhelpful. The only helpful person in the office was the front receptionist--kudos to her for finally getting us the printed records. My daughter is not a paycheck or a pincushion. We will not be returning, and I would not recommend this office. read more

Most honest, caring dr with wonderful staff. My daughter is no longer his patient as we have a different medical group now but I always look him up to ensure he's still doing his great work. read more

The level of unprofessionalism and overall environment in this office is truly disappointing. From the poorly phone skills, to the excessive wait times, to the indifferent and uncaring staff attitudes, the experience is consistently negative. For a pediatric office, the setting itself feels outdated, reflecting the same lack of care as the employees. They have not kept up with basic technology standards--there is no patient portal, app, or accessible system for viewing healthcare information or completing necessary school forms, which makes the process far more difficult than it should be. The physician is acceptable--adequate at best, though not exceptional. Unfortunately, switched here from Optum (side note- since the transition from Beaver to Optum, patient care standards have noticeably declined). Yet, this place takes the win for one of the poorest healthcare experiences I've encountered, and I am now actively searching for a different medical group. read more

Dr. K and his staff has been here for our kids since their birth, starting with our oldest now 11 turning 12! He's knowledgeable and straight forward when it comes to their care and treatment plans. read more

My children have went to Dr. Kudtarkar their whole lives. They miss one appointment and he dropped them from his care. Does he really care about his patients? Why wouldn't the office inform me? If you're looking for long term this isn't the doctor you want. read more

Has saved one of my kids lives 20 years ago and I still take all my kids to him he has never been wrong about what they need or what is wrong w them id trust him w any of my kids lives and have and he has never let me down read more

This doctor prescribed me Ozemphic or weight loss, after I had told him that I could just exercise and lose weight. That was not my primary concern. He later had lectured me about not taking the medications he had prescribed me, after I had told him that my insurance didn't cover it and Walmart didn't carry anything like that, so I was unable to get it anyway. I later had torn my bicep and though he had given me a referral to orthopedics, it was going to be two months away. When I finally did see the orthopedics doctor, he told me that it was too late to do anything on it, and that surgery should have been performed on my arm asap. Even after going thru physical therapy, it's looks bad and is permanently weakened now. Needless to say, he was pretty irate about the review I had left him, two days before my last visit with him and he told me I would need to find another doctor, which I was already planning on doing anyway. Why couldn't he get me into surgery with orthopedics sooner instead of giving me a referral for them two months away? This doctor also gets easily frustrated when you ask him to repeat himself, due to his heavy Indian accent that make it difficult to understand at times. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this doctor to anyone and no doctor should ever confront a patient about whatever review they leave for that doctor, no matter what. In my opinion, that alone, was very unprofessional of him to do. read more

Dr. Kudtarkar has been my daughters & I family doctor for over 13 years. He's very knowledgeable and attentive. He put me on a weight loss program back in 2012 and I lost 130lbs. Recently I lost my grandmother and went into depression which resulted in me gaining about 59 of those lbs back. I made an appointment for asthma issues and he recommended me for the bariatric surgery. A few days later I was approved for the surgery. I'm going through the process now and I couldn't be more happier with my experience of Dr. Kudtarkar. I've recommended him to many family members and will continue to keep him as my doctor. Thank you soooo much Dr. Kudtarkar and his staff. - Brieauna read more

Dr. K is not a very good doctor. He may know his stuff but that is not relevant. I'm sure most docs are pretty smart and know their shit. It takes more than that to be a good doctor. Something Dr. k lacks is empathy and compassion. He has no bedside manner. Will file grievance today as a result of his inability to listen to his patients and treat them w any kind of care. I'm very disappointed in him. He should not be practicing. Hoping my review will at least steer one person clear from becoming a patient of his. Zero stars would be better. read more

Stopped my medications; then gives me a call to come in for a check-up... which is great, but by stopping my medications, the check-up will be pointless considering the blood work will be incorrect by stopping the medications I'm on. No big deal... I'll just call and make an appointment, but oh wait, none of the phone numbers listed are working, and the address has changed. Take the time to update the information for the doctor; otherwise you're just hurting your patients. read more

Dr Kudtarkar is a very thorough and caring doctor. He not only helped us with the concerns we had but also saw other things he could offer help with that we very much needed and appreciated. His obvious care and concern for my daughter is unmatched in a world where everything is on a time frame and all about money. What a breath of fresh air. Great doctor and a great person. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. Wait times even with an appointment are OUTRAGEOUS on any given day. The girls in the office are awesome. But jeez! I'm pretty sure he double or triple books because it's absolutely insane. WaitingTWO HOURS in a tiny tiny waiting area with a fussy one year old, when I have an appointment (mind you, NO newborns in sight, which are priority) is insanely frustrating.... and unprofessional! The wait time wouldn't be so bad if the doctor was good. Well, no. He takes ZERO time to explain what is going on with my child, hardly offers any eye to eye contact and just does short, and not even direct answers. When my son was a couple days old, for example, he had baby acne. Totally normal, right? As their fragile skin is learning to take in all of the worlds nasty toxins... Dr: It's eczema Me: Oh my goodness! Dr: Maybe Me: ? Dr: Possibly Me: I don't know. We won't know until he's 1 WHAT? Super strange. Like.... what..... was that? Zero. Stars. I'm confused, annoyed and have officially left this office. read more

0 stars because he is rude, unsympathetic, controlling, and all of the above. He lacks communication and has to be thee worst Dr. i've ever had. He does NOT care about previous diagnosis only his own. He is extremely extremely rude, cocky, and a down right dumb f*ck. I am a kind person however, he has pushed me past the point of how return hence the review. Please don't waste your time with this sorry sob. read more

This doctor got mad and stormed out of the room when I ask for other options for anixioty other then meds. Doctor said he would call in referral we agreed on and after five visits to his office I still have not received referral needed. I called office twice - was told by front desk they would call me back after checking on referral- never got a call. Office is covered with hand written rules and office is out dated. For me as an adult with anixioty -the office always has babies screaming at the top of their lungs - causing more anixioty. The last time I was there I ask what was going on with the baby and he was getting circumcised. The screaming still hunts me. read more

This drs office has no respect. They do not care about their patients and they lie right to your face on what they will do for you. If I could give them no stars I would. I will also be filing a grievance with my insurance company and possibly bbb as well. They do not need to be in business. read more

He has been my kids doctor for 10+ years he's very nice, he listens and is very good with the kids, he makes my kids little toys and they really enjoy him, doesn't take long. If there's and issue I can call, fast response for medication refills... I would definitely recommend this doctor!! read more

One in particular is at the Redlands office named CLAUDIA! some chick with glasses and a BAD ATTITUDE towards PATIENTS! Even Answers the phone RUDE! she gets a MINUS 100! CLAUDIA YOU "NEVER" tell a patients that Somthing is THEIR FAULT! Your suppose to be working in a PROFESSIONAL setting WORKING for a DOCTOR !There was a mix up with my daughters insurance and this chick straight up told me "well honestly that's your fault". VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!!! Your JUST an MA or receptionist or whatever your title is! This chick was in a rush and just trying to get me out of the way !! get your act right CLAUDIA! read more

This is the 1st n only Doctor I have visited in my 62 years and have been a patient of who knows me. When I go to his office he follows up on my last visit. His first words are NOT. What refills do u need? He knows me and that blows me out if the water!!! He cares!!!! I CAN NOT emphasize that enough. If it's ok for me to say "I love and Trust this Dr with my health". I Do! Dr S Kudtarkar I love and thank God for you!!! Thank you! read more

I had an appointment for my kids at 11:30 with Dr. Sanjay Kudtartar in Redlands. I came into the office and walked to the front desk to sign in. The receptionist, Claudia, asked what time was our appointments. I told her 11:30 and she immediately said, "Oh no, you're half an hour late. It says here your appointment was at 11:00. Dr. Kudtartar already left and cancelled the appointments." So I said, "What the hell?? My appointment was for 11:30, they said specifically 11:30. This is not right." So of course I was mad and I asked for his information because I wanted to complain about the front desk not writing my CORRECT time for my appointment. I was angry because I scheduled an appointment that fits my schedule and my kids' schedules. It's hard when they're going to school and I'm working almost all of the time to have a empty day that's works for the both of us. I'm not playing around here, it's not funny. So I was walking back and forth looking at the papers posted on the window for a number I can complain to. I just kept saying that this wasn't right at all. Then Claudia said, "Um m'am, I would appreciate it if you weren't acting so rude and to take your business out of the office. I don't want to hear it cause I've been hearing it for so long. We had to send home three patients before you so you aren't the only one mad. It's not our fault. It's not my fault! So could you please stop being so rude?!" I exclaimed, "Excuse me?! I'm not being rude. If you were in my shoes you would be mad too. I'm not playing games here. You think I always have time?? You think people have a lot time just to play games??" Then she said, "Honestly, if I were in your shoes I wouldn't be like you. I have children too." So what! I don't care if you have children too! Anyways, I have freedom of speech don't I?? Can't tell me what to say and what not to say! So I said, "Well if you already knew he had canceled or had left, why didn't you call us saying that he wasn't there instead of making people drag everybody and everything to this office. What kind of receptionist are you?? If anything, you're the one being rude! Schedule me another set of appointments. This is ridiculous!" After that, I left. WOW! Man was I angry! Dr. Sanjay Kudtartar should fire that horrible and rude woman! I hope he reads his reviews cause I know I'm not the only one complaining about that Claudia. Sheesh! I know that Dr. Sanjay is a good doctor. I have nothing against him. But that woman needs to be fired. Dr. Kudtartar is going to have a lot of mad patients and patients that will remove him as a primary care doctor all because of that Claudia. I'd give him five stars, but maybe when they fire that b**** first. read more

Absolutely horrible service . I saw the reviews regarding staff Claudia. I think she should change professions. She acts like the patient is an inconvenience. I have been calling this office regarding my medication issues for over 2 months and nothing has been resolved. I was told by my insurance plan to file an grievance which I am in the process of doing. I would strongly advise patients looking to get good service and caring staff to find it elsewhere. read more

I will give dr kudtarkar and his staff a negative 100!! I don't see how people like him so much. a couple of time he has given me the wrong medication. One time I was complaining of my wrist hurting (I didn't tell him I consulted another doctor and told me it was carpal tunnel) you know what he told me? first he looked at my hand then he said: that's fat! your hand is hurting because your fat! I never expected that from him... I said excuse me? he said all you have to do is lose weight and your problems are solved. I changed doctors and is funny the other doctor did surgery on my fat hand and my PROBLEM WAS SOLVED!!!!!!!! I can't believe he still practicing.. read more

I selected Dr. Kudtarkar as my primary physician after an emergency hospital stay landed me with needing a GP to follow up with. I am in the process of finding myself a new primary AS SOON AS I CAN. His office is incredibly unclean and ill put together, his front desk staff is some of the most unfriendly and unhelpful I have ever come across and his bedside manner is not up to par with what ANY doctors should be. Unfortunately, my health condition dictates weekly visits, and I dread them each week. Even with an appt., I'm still guaranteed at LEAST a 45 minute - 1 hour wait before I am seen, most times I won't even be seen by Kudtarkar himself (he has a nurse practitioner who is there more than he is) and more often than not, the front desk is not even in as they will be on there lunch and just leave the waiting room open, with phones ringing and people filling up the lobby. The first time I went, to establish care with him, I waited an hour after my appt. started (with the front desk girls ignoring me), and when I was finally taken back, I was told Kudtarkar wasn't even there and I would be seeing the nurse. I was so upset but what could I do? I sat in the exam room for another 20minutes holding on to the permission form to get my medical records transferred to them, until I got up myself and hunted down one of the front desk and handed it to her myself. Like I said, nothing but terrible experiences with the staff, the doctor himself, knowledge of what I was coming in for and punctuality. I am in the process of changing my primary as we speak so that I do not have to see him anymore. I highly recommend that if you can get in to any other doctor, to please, please do so. Rarely do I get so passionate about something, but when it comes to my health, I am my only advocate, and I refuse anything but satisfactory care - something I do not receive from Kudtarkar. read more
