    Willging has been treating my 92 yr old mother for at least 7 years and I can't find any fault with his staff or himself.

    I had another primary care doctor ("Dr. X") for over a decade. Dr. X is still in practice and has…read morean excellent reputation (highly rated on Yelp too!). Still, I was dissatisfied enough to ask friends to refer me to another doctor. The reason was that when I went to see Dr. X, I sat in big waiting room, waited for a long time, and then was ushered into one of about a dozen examination rooms where I waited some more. Dr. X and I were just ships passing in the night. I was referred to Dr. Bressler, and at the time I think I was lucky that he accepted me as a patient. What a contrast in the way that he practices medicine. After any examination he meets with you in his office, answers all of your questions and offers advice. During that time you never feel that his attention is devoted to anything but you. In helping you consider decisions he will explain the issue without talking down to you. In our consultations he has referred me to latest published study on a particular treatment. He is extremely personable, jokes a bit, and shows true interest and empathy. The "staff" are themselves are a team of medical professionals who the most helpful and friendly that I have ever encountered. If I need something I can email his office and get a quick response. This is by far the best experience I have had with any physician and I wouldn't change for anything. One more thing, on your first visit say hello to Dr. B's dog, Izzy.

    I will be fair with this review, since I did not use their service…read more I left a message on their VM, and was called back with in 30 minutes. The receptionist informed me that the Doctor does not except insurance of any kind. She informed me that I would have to pay for my services in full, before leaving the practice, and it would be my responsibility to submit all charges to the insurance company for reimbursement. Uhh no thanks, that sounds like a headache waiting to happen... That's a shame he had good reviews, but something does not add up here.

    I have a lifelong resistance to doctors, lots of waiting and they see you for such a short moment…read morethat what is the point? I've also moved a ton so have never had a chance to develop a rapport with a Doctor until now. I have been seeing Dr. Falquier for 3 years now and LOVE her. I have been (until the last 4 weeks) been a healthy young woman and only visited her on the routine occasions for the regular check ups etc. about a month ago i developed a sever back issue that is still going on. I have seen her about 4 times in the past month as she is tireless in trying to find the right resolution for my pain. She is so friendly and understanding, I know that she has my best interest at heart. I'm also very glad at how young she is as she won't be retiring anytime soon and I hope she is my doc forever. Everyone at the downtown location is very courteous and fast, and friendly. I've hit the Urgent care 3 times and always been seen very quickly. All that aside though, Dr. Falquier rocks. If you've never had a bond with your doc I seriously recommend checking her out. Good luck!!

    Another 5-star review for Dr. Falquier, but it bears repeating - she's awesome!…read more I came across her because she was in the same office as someone on the list of San Diego's best doctors. That doctor wasn't accepting new patients but Dr. Falquier was, and boy am I thankful for that. Finding a good doctor is always tough, and after a couple of false starts, I'm really happy that I found her. She's totally on the ball, makes you feel comfortable, genuinely seems to care (imagine that!), and is funny to boot. I love Dr. Falquier, and highly recommend her for anyone looking for a new primary care physician.

    I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Jacqueline Denysiak. From the moment I met her, I felt…read morelike I was in great hands. She is kind, patient, thorough, and really takes the time to listen. You never feel rushed, and she makes sure all of your questions are answered. Her office is professional, efficient, and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. Dr. Denysiak has a great bedside manner and explains things in a way that is easy to understand. It is not always easy to find a doctor who is both highly competent and compassionate, but she truly is both. I highly recommend Dr. Denysiak to anyone looking for a physician who is attentive, caring, and excellent at what she does.

    Dr. Jaqueline is an amazing doctor to work with. I have now been seeing her for approximately two…read moreyears. After struggling to get doctors to take me seriously about a medical issue with family history, Dr. J is the first doctor to truly hear me out and arrange the testing I needed. She has done so on very large issues as well as minor. She is kind, quick, and so knowledgable and helpful. In the very few instances I have questioned her (really just to make sure I understood what she meant), she *immediately* provided recommendations/referrals for me to get a second opinion if I would like- her first goal is ALWAYS to make sure I get the care I need and am able to address my medical concerns how I see fit. Referrals can take awhile to come through, but calls on my end to the insurance always reveal the problem is with the insurance provider lagging. My recommendation is to communicate via MyChart, which she and Dr. Barbara do a wonderful job of corresponding on regarding appointments, online virtual visits, and addressing general questions. Dr. J has been the primary care doctor I've ever had. I would highly reccomend seeing her!

    This guy is great! From the start he was non judgmental about anything I had to say or needed…read moretreatment for. I have no complaints about his staff or office. He gets refills done quick when I need them and most of the time I don't have to go into the office to pick up my scrips. One of the few doctors that saves paper and is helpful at finding the most cost effective ways of getting me my medication. Whenever I see him he makes certain that we touched all bases and nothing else can be done with the current visit. After seeing him for nearly 6 or 7 years, I had a life changing event and he takes even more time just to listen and make sure that he is providing the best care possible and by spending the extra minute, he once again will make sure that there isn't anything more he can do to make my life better. Although he does take insurance, he doesn't rush like most doctors to the 6 patients an hour that is required for most doctors accepting insurance. If something requires more time and attention, he will make time to help. He makes me feel comfortable about talking about even the most embarrassing issues and dealing with the situation in the most dignified manner. Finally, when he doesn't know exactly the right treatment he will refer to someone that is more knowledgeable in the field that the ailment requires. We see things the same way about drugs, meaning less is more. He doesn't have that mentality that "there isn't anything my prescription pad cannot cure". It's more of a less drugs is healthier in the long run. Plus, his signage inside every room is great. Check the pictures! So those people "shopping" for doctors this isn't your guy for getting your fix he's a doctor, not a drug pusher/dealer. All in all, I'd recommend Dr. Shamblaw as a solid base for health care for anybody. Solid GP/Family MD. Side note: sorry it took 6+ years to write my review.

    Now only seeing HIV patients. Dr. Caperna dropped all his previous patients via a form letter with…read moreno warning or heads up to start looking for a new PCP. I too received the termination of care letter after over a decade with Dr. Caperna. As you can see from my prior review, I really liked Dr. Caperna, but the way his change of practice was handled was very poor. Dropping patients with no warning, with no sign of compassion about the situation you're putting them in, is pretty shabby

    Dr Caperna is a DICK with a "God Complex" with absolutely NO PATIENCE or "Bedside manner"…read more Instead of being able to communicate, he left the room, right in the middle of our interaction, and I was left wondering why. He comes back in about 5 minutes later only for him to show that he was frustrated interacting with me... Rather than give me a chance 'do better' or apologize, or tell me what the problem was, he again threatened to leave me in the room again by myself, as if I were a child that needed a "time out". WHAT AN ASSHOLE. If this guy has no ability to "handle" a wide variety of personalities or types of people from the community, WHAT KIND OF PATIENCE does he have for "medical practice?" I simply walked out... what a shame... I was putting all my hope in him, as I felt fragile, dealing with an ongoing issue I'd been suffering from for few years now...and he came highly recommended. SO DEEPLY DISAPPOINTED. I was so nervous just to be there, challenging the diagnosis, or lack there of from another doctor... I never expected this treatment on top of the emotional and physical pain I came in there with... He either has a sever lack of ability to listen and communicate, or all this was a rude ploy to get me out of there because he didn't really want me as a new patient... either way I wish he could have just told me so, rather than have me go through all of this turmoil. I'm glad his true colors come out on the 1st appointment and not months into it. It's a shame doctors forget they are there to help people. --Congratulations, Dr. Caperna, you earned yourself my DICKHEAD AWARD, earned in less than 10 minutes. FOLLOW-UP: The person that referred Dr Caperna to me told me that Dr Caperna apologized to HIM for "things not working out". IF DR CAPERNA WAS AN HONEST PERSON AND SINCERE, HE WOULD HAVE APOLOGIZED TO ME...
