I highly recommend choosing this Encinitas location for care.

Unfortunately, Dr. Nene was my attending physician in the UCSD Emergency Department during a…read moremedical crisis. He appeared visibly annoyed that I had sought emergency care at all, which was concerning given the seriousness of my condition. His bedside manner was dismissive and unprofessional at a time when careful evaluation and clear communication were essential. I strongly disagree with the diagnosis I received, which delayed appropriate care and put my health at risk. The experience was deeply disappointing and eroded my trust in the care provided. Because of this encounter, I would not choose to be treated by Dr. Nene again, and it is the primary reason I will not return to the UCSD Emergency Department.

Seems the system doesn't really work. I think I would rather be given a realistic timeline than the promise of a reduced wait time. Just be honest with your patients who are probably already under some stress and discomfort. When I finally saw the doctor, they ran one test and referred me over to the ER. Really? But you know, that is another nightmare for a different review.

Dear Torrey Pines Urgent Care Staff,…read more Thank you for your message and for the care you provided during my recent visit. I would like to express my sincere appreciation to your team. The staff were professional, attentive, and very helpful, which I truly value--especially during a time when I was dealing with post-surgical discomfort. At the same time, I would like to respectfully share a concern regarding patient comfort. As someone who is still recovering from spine surgery, I found it very difficult to remain seated upright while waiting. I understand that wait times are part of urgent care services; however, having a few reclining or more supportive seating options for patients in significant pain or post-surgery recovery could make a meaningful difference. I offer this feedback with respect and appreciation, and in the spirit of helping enhance the patient experience for others in similar situations. Thank you again for your care and dedication to your patients. Respectfully, Tony

I had a fall the day prior and concerned I may have experienced a hairline fracture. From the moment I arrived, I was immediately checked in, triaged and x-rayed. My longest wait was to be seen.

Overall, between the moment of check-in to check-out the staff were kind, caring and supportive. The only thing that stinks is paid parking. All small price to pay for the prompt and expedient service!

This is for a general sports physical appointment (twice), for a Rx refill appointment when my eye doctor was out of town, and for a sprained finger. Some of this I can understand, but it was clear why we made the appointment, but then after we arrived, checked in and waited to be seen, we were told they couldn't help. Then, they wouldn't sign off on a general sports physical form, without much of a reason other than they weren't comfortable doing so??? Okay. Our pediatrician is also right across the hall, they have access to all of the same records so why?? DO NOT GO THERE. It is a waste of time.

Then they had to enter all of their insurance information into the system because they had not checked in online. Normally, it's not that big a deal to wait. But this means that we were staying inside an enclosed room for 30 minutes with a lot of people also waiting for their turn. The whole point of making appointments for the flu clinic is that you are not supposed to be waiting around inside with lots of other people - You are supposed to be in and out safely. Once we got called it was very easy. But please tell people that if they don't have appointments they cannot come in the building. They could check off on the list at the door so that people without appointments are not jumping ahead of people who have appointments, and increasing the time that people are sitting in a waiting room breathing on each other.

Then I saw the reviews for Dr. Belnap on Yelp & lo and behold he was able to fit me in the week I returned . After looking at x rays of my shoulder and back from years ago & examining me he sent me to get an MRI . I was relieved it was an MRI and not a CAT scan as they have been shown to increase your chances of getting cancer. The MRI place he recommended was able to get me in for the next week.. my co-pay was under $100 for my back and my shoulder . Soon after this I saw Dr. Belnap again & he gave me a cortisone injection in my shoulder and some medication which helped greatly . A few months later the same in my back ! Last year I somehow hurt my back so badly I could barely walk. Once again, he was able to fit me in quickly and gave me an injection, which helped somewhat. However, it was Christmas holidays and I was going away for a special celebration and my back couldn't handle it. He was able to fit me in during the holiday season quickly, gave me an epidural and I was able to go and be fine. he's very caring and and we'll do whatever he can to help.
