They have several consultation/treatment rooms off of a (people-less) lobby, where you check in on a computer. It almost looks like "The Price is Right," except inside each room is a fully equipped medical exam space. I saw two different nurses during my visit, and both were very thorough and professional. They collected my relevant health history and symptoms, asked a lot of questions, and conducted a comprehensive exam. They even offered to send my visit history to my home PCP. I felt listened to and cared about. Also it was convenient that when they wrote me a prescription it's so easy to fill it at the CVS pharmacy.

Something…read morehad happened over the last few days to my right ear, and my first instinct was to use ear drop cleaners. It worked temporarily, but then pain began, and this morning I woke up to high frequency hearing loss on my right side. I went into Scripps Express in Oceanside (Mission Ave.) and saw Dr. Kasmian Campa. Thiis was the first time in my 62 years that I wasn't "rushed through". Not only did he explain what was happening, he used graphical ear charts to guide me through the issue, then used a more advanced chart to explain further how my issue was not permanent. That was wonderful, but then the nurse "Denise" came in and was incredibly kind and understanding of my concern, so she explained the ear flush before she began, and was very attentive to any discomfort during the process. Finally, she showed me the debris that was removed so I had a better understanding of how bad it had gotten. Absolute TOP SHELF service and kindness. I could not be happier with the service.

I probably am THAT patient that some doctors get irritated with, because I went in with a list of items that we needed to chat about or get referrals for. And as we talked, he made a mental note of each one. He fully addressed each and every thing I wanted to discuss and then moved onto the next. For me, this appointment crossed a TON off my to-do list as it was so productive. I think we can all agree that we've walked out of a doctor's office and said "oh shoot, he didn't tell me about ____". With Dr. Whitney, you'll never have to worry about that. After the fact, Dr. Whitney personally followed up with me, and advised me he'd submitted my referrals and I should be hearing back soon. I've never had such personable attention from any Doctor's office let alone one Doctor specifically!
