    I was refered to him by my GP. I was diagnosed with AKI (Acute Kidney Injury) in July of 2019. His…read morebedside manner is HORRIBLE! He spends the LEAST amount of time with you as if his office is flooded with other patients he must attend to which is NOT the case! He rushes you in and out and God forbid you have any questions about healing or wellness because his answers are extremely short and not helpful AT ALL! After doing much research of my of my own and having visited him a few times I asked him about diet to heal my kidneys he made this BRIEF statement to me, "eat low potassium and low protien." THATS IT! Never once in an entire year in his so-called "care" did he ever even refer me to a Renal Dietician! Instead, he started my "care" by stating what he thought may be the cause of my AKI and gave the bleekest outlook saying that I could DIE but that because I was young that I would recieve a kidney! HUH! There was NOT ONE DISCUSSION on getting "WELL" and yet he calls his establishment a "Wellness Institue!" OMG! My GFR descended into the dumps (GFR-8) and he sent me to get access for temporary dialysis until my biopsy was approved. The wonderful people at Memorial Medical Center in Long Beach, CA admitted me and gave me my first round of dialysis treatments and did frequent lab work (the results of which was NEVER sought out by Dr. Hon nor his incompetent staff). My GFR then went back up to 16 showing that proper diet and work could reverse my condition (GFR 15 and under is dialysis level) and instead of taking me OFF of dialysis he recommends that I STAY on dialysis and go to Quest Dialysis Center in Long Beach, which he owns! His words, "Since you already have the access why not go to dialysis - it wont hurt." I felt like it was a setup from the beginning! It seemed to be ALL about the $$$ for him or something other than HEALING ME - THATS for SURE! Even at Quest Dialysis there STILL was NO consultation with a dietician AT ALL! If you care to live and heal your kidney as much as you can I would recommend DO NOT go to this doctor!

    So, I received an approved referral from one of the worst medical insurance companies, AppleCare…read more I called the office and questioned why the office stated "Wellness Institute"? I asked does the MD practice homeopathic medicine? Usually wellness is associated with that type of a practice. I also asked what is the difference between your "Wellness Institute" to a regular office of a Nephrologist? Here is what the office stated: The doctor is the owner of Quest Dialysis. What???? A nephrologist that promotes dialysis instead of preventing it????? Then she changed the statement to.... Well, he is co-owner. Like that makes a difference!!!! Then she went on to state that they also do "research" there at the "Wellness Institute". Research? I asked. You mean like testing with new drugs, trials etc? So basically, the MD (If I even dare call him that) gets funds to perform trials on his patients (ie guinea pigs), then when the side effects of the drugs rip their kidneys to shreds then he still makes money by sending them to "his" dialysis center! DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, go to this person that obtained a degree, not a MD. He is plainly only in this business for money$$$$$$$! Beware! This is not a "Wellness Institute" This is a trial and error factory laced with your kidney failure for his gain!!
