His office is very clean, his staff is friendly and they accept most major insurance. A bit of a heads up, sometimes the office can get quite busy, I recommend you come at least 20 - 30 min prior to your appointment.

Hearing Dr. Change retired recently, was a SAD day for me. Not only did he teach me how to live…read morewith chronic pain, but as the reviewer below said, he took the time to listen to me, explored my issue, and then taught me ways to live with it and also to treat it. He did give me hope, and he earned my trust immediately. Had it not been for his peaceful approach, his skill and his dedication to healing, I would not be living now with the tools and the wisdom I was lucky enough to learn from him. He is one of the smartest, and one of THE best physicians I have ever had. He will be sorely missed. But thank you Dr. Chang! You made an incredible difference in my life and for that I will be forever grateful.

I have been to countless doctors over the years who always judged my pain by my age and looks…read moreinstead of by my condition and level of pain. I'm only 25 and look relatively healthy which means that most doctors I have been referred to treated me like a pain pill addict. Dr. Chang is the first pain management doctor who took the time to see beyond my looks and into how my life has dramatically changed while dealing with excruciating, chronic pain. Dr. Chang gave me something that I had lost a long time ago and that was hope. He showed me my scans and not only explained what we were looking at but then pointed and pressed on the corresponding areas of my body to teach me why I'm having the pain in these areas. Dr. Chang understands the effects that long term, chronic pain can have not only on a persons body but their mental state as well. He attacks the issue of chronic pain from all sides instead of just writing more prescriptions for the physical symptoms. I don't normally write these reviews but after seeing over 25 doctors in the last 3 years for this issue and not gaining much ground against the problem I have to applaud Dr. Chang. He takes the time to let you know all the different ways chronic pain can effect your life and explain in understandable detail the different coping mechanisms that we can use to fight this. Hands down, I would recommend Dr. Chang to anyone who has lost hope of a fulfilling lifestyle due to chronic pain. He doesn't promise to stop the pain completely, because no one can honestly do that, but he gives you the skills and tools to take control of your life again and for that I am extremely grateful.

I'm not completely out of the woods yet, but the herniation pain that I've been dealing with is already gone. I still have some muscle soreness and tightness, which is to be expected, but the difference is remarkable. Deb, Dr. Sohrab's assistant, made the entire process incredibly easy. She was always available to answer my questions, walked me through every step, and even provided helpful videos explaining what to expect before and after surgery. As a former professional snowboarder, I've had my share of injuries and surgeries over the years, so I'm not new to the process. Without question, this was the most comfortable, organized, and stress-free surgical experience I've ever had. I'm grateful to Dr. Sohrab, Deb, and the entire team for the outstanding care.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience with Dr. Holamandara's office has been extremely…read morefrustrating and disappointing. Since the beginning of this year, I have been trying to schedule an appointment. Instead of helping me move forward, the assistant told me that Dr. Holamandara would not see me until I had an MRI. She instructed me to ask my primary care physician to order it. That made no sense because the specialist is the one requesting the MRI and should be responsible for providing the appropriate referral or coordinating the necessary steps. Because I had previously seen Dr. Pativanda for the same condition, I was then told that they would contact Dr. Pativanda's office to request the MRI referral. That was over four months ago. Since then, I have called both offices every couple of weeks asking for an update. Dr. Holamandara's office and Dr. Pativanda's office are located directly across from each other in the same building, yet no one seems able to communicate or provide answers. Neither office has followed up with me, returned my calls with a solution, or taken ownership of resolving the issue. The lack of communication, coordination, and accountability has delayed my medical care for months. As a patient, I should not have to spend months chasing down referrals and repeatedly calling multiple offices just to get a simple answer. Patients deserve timely communication, clear guidance, and staff who are willing to help instead of passing responsibility to someone else. I hope this office improves its patient care and communication because no one seeking medical treatment should have to go through this experience.

To add to this review their outpatient physical therapy department is awesome. Thank you dr Hershey and staff you're all angels

Giving this facility even one star is being overly generous. Never in my life have I ever witnessed…read moresuch a disregard for patient well-being in a proposed "care facility" like I have at this clinic. Such disrespect and condescending natures among the staff members here--it's absolutely abhorrent. My mother was here recently seeking the medical services and advice of Dr. Bert Tardieu for some unsightly shoulder pain as a result of an injury she sustained. However, rather than any useful medical advice, what she received instead was a large serving of horrendous bedside manner and a side of disrespect. Dr. Tardieu failed to treat my mother. During this appointment--a whopping 15 minutes at best, mind you--He proceeded to talk over her, belittle her and even talk down to her. Whilst cross examining her symptoms to the image report that he received he made my mother feel extremely uncomfortable. He down played her pain and borderline made her feel like it was a fabricated event. By the end of the appointment, my mother was practically racing for the door--and I truly don't blame her. When I asked for the names of the PT's that he was referring her to, he responded simply, " Well, I don't know their names but I know that they're probably pretty good." How on Earth does a doctor not know the names of the physical therapists IN HIS OWN PRACTICE that he plans on sending a patient to?? Dr. Tardieu is incredibly arrogant. I sincerely believe that he would benefit greatly from some re-education ON ALL FRONTS... because he is the LEAST patient focused individual I've ever interacted with in the medical field. With that said, if you choose to "receive care" at this location--be advised--you are not entering a care facility. You are being churned in and out of a patient factory that cares more about what your insurance will pay versus alleviating the pain you are suffering from. There are a few caring souls sprinkled throughout the facility, but most are impatient, will ignore your questions and be unnecessarily rude when they speak to you. I hope SVMC sees this and takes immediate action to prevent others from having to endure such a traumatic experience.
