    The worst communication (rather lack thereof) and office team I've ever encountered. I requested a…read moreprescription refill for birth control and first of all no one ever picks up the phone at the office, you can't send an email (which is on their website, but defaults to a message that says to call them...um) and when you leave a message, it's basically going into a blackhole. It took them over 2 weeks to leave me a voicemail saying that the declined my request. They said I should book an appointment for a pap- um how would I even begin to do that if they are not able to return calls or even answer calls in general? Do not come here if you want anyone responsive or remotely communicative, the staff here is totally incompetent and useless, sadly at this point the doctor is kind of on the same page as well. I've never had so many issues with getting birth control prescription from a doctor. Stay away ladies.

    As a private practice, I don't believe this office has the infrastructure in place to provide…read moreadequate care in the obstetrics field. I was referred to this office for my first pregnancy and when I went in for my first ultrasound at 7 weeks, the baby was measuring at only 5.5/6. Dr. Tamayo was skeptical that I knew when I ovulated, and believed that it was just too early. When I told her that I was tracking my ovulation and even showed her my calendar, she laughed nervously and then just kept saying, "Well if you think you know, then..." but wouldn't finish the sentence. I was sent for HCG testing at a separate lab, two days apart. On the day I was to receive a call about my HCG results, the office's phone lines were down. Every time I called I got a "Call Failed" notice. I was so desperate for information that I called another office in the same building and asked if they could go to the office and see what was going on. I was told that their phone lines were just "down," and that they would call on Monday. This was a Thursday. There was seemingly no recognition of the stress this situation could cause a patient and no effort made to contact me to alleviate any of it (I'm pretty sure someone in the office had a cell phone they could have used). Once I got the call on Monday, I was told that my HCG looked good and to come back in a week. I felt like something wasn't right, though, and pushed to speak to Dr. Tamayo. Melina then got very impatient with me, telling me that the Dr. didn't have time to talk to me on the phone because I was "one of many patients, and if she talked to the phone with every one of them, she wouldn't have time for appointments." Feeling pretty appalled and brushed aside, I snapped and told her just get me an appointment, after which she told me that I needed to treat her like a human being. My thoughts were, "likewise!" It turned out that the baby wasn't growing and I went forward with Misoprostol to miscarry at home, per Dr. Tamayo's orders. I went in for a follow-up 3 weeks later, where Dr. Tamayo informed me that the miscarriage was complete. However, I continued to feel sick. A month and a half later I ended up in the ER, where a much more thorough ultrasound showed that I had leftover pregnancy tissue in my uterus. I ended up getting a D&C with a different doctor, because at this point I had lost all trust in Dr. Tamayo and her office. A miscarriage is painful enough without the added pain of feeling ignored, and trivialized by your doctor. Moreover, there is no after hours line where you can call and get advice from a doctor. You are basically told that if you aren't having a life threatening emergency, you can't talk to anyone outside of business hours, but as my story proves, you can barely talk to anyone inside business hours, either! It also bothers me that no one ever answers the phone at the office. You have to call and leave a voicemail and then Melina calls you back later. If anyone has bothered to read this review this far, know that I believe Dr. Tamayo to be a capable doctor, but one who has no business working in obstetrics if she can't commit to after hours care, reliable phone lines for her patients, and empathetic staff who can handle difficult situations. I would definitely not recommend this office to anyone, especially for first-time pregnancies

    We absolutely love Dr. Chan and her entire staff…read more Being new parents, we would be nervous for every appointment and had lots of questions prepared to better understand how the baby was developing and what to expect for each stage of my pregnancy. From the moment we walked into the office however, we'd be put at ease. The front desk staff was always friendly, Patty was always chipper and had a genuine interest in how I was feeling and doing, and Dr. Chan always showed up with a warm smile and contagious laugh. Dr. Chan was patient in explaining what was happening, what to expect for just the next stage (to not overwhelm us), and answered our questions before we could even ask. As the final weeks of my pregnancy approached, I became anxious as I just wanted the baby to arrive! After going a week past my due date, we scheduled an induction with Dr. Chan's guidance. Once I was settled in, Dr. Chan came to check on me and planned to come back in the morning to see how I was progressing. The induction took very quickly however and I was ready to deliver by early morning (in less than 12 hours!!). Dr. Chan came quickly and we delivered our happy, healthy baby naturally! The staff at Glendale Adventist Hospital was outstanding (Dr. Chan only delivers here); we truly can't express how grateful we were to have delivered here with Dr. Chan. The staff took exceptional care of us and taught us more than we could have ever imagined in the short 48 hours of being there. We constantly felt at ease and thoroughly enjoyed every moment! After seeing a staff as frequently as you do during your pregnancy, you know its been a great experience when you actually miss seeing them after you finally give birth! We look forward to the next time we are pregnant and can go through the experience again with Dr. Chan, her staff, and Glendale Adventist.

    ARE YOU PREGNANT? Do not look elsewhere! I can't say enough great things about her and her team…read more Dr. Chan delivered my baby and saw me throughout my whole pregnancy. This is not my first so I have had experience with other doctors to know the difference between a bad, good and the best one in LA. Be prepared to wait a while during your checkup appointments, it's because she delivers all her patients no matter the time of day. So if it happens that your appointment gets canceled or delayed be patient, she's not taking a long lunch. She's out there delivering babies and saving lives. She cares about you and your baby. Everything she predicted during my pregnancy came to fruition. She had serious talks with me to prepare myself to deliver early since my baby was growing faster than anticipated and probably was going to come around the 38 wk mark (Guess what happened) she told me to make changes to my nutrition and lifestyle that were very helpful to be able to birth my baby without ripping (most doctors refrain from giving any advice). She had me do a "controlled natural birth" and not just push like crazy. He was born after 4 pushes. The ladies at the front desk were amazing. So helpful. Brittany helped me change insurance so I could continue my care with Dr. Chan, Tracy was so sweet and caring too and called me many times to check on my contractions. During birth I was treated like a queen. You are told to call her when you are on the way to the hospital. She was waiting for me when I arrived at the hospital with the BEST team to see me firsthand. Unfortunately, I don't remember the names of the wonderful ladies that helped me when I was in active labor. But all I can say is I was treated with care, respect and even felt like I was with family. The anesthesiologist was amazing and so sweet, the nurses were just the best. I fully trusted them. And Dr. Chan was always coming back to check on my progress. I consider myself so lucky to have had my baby delivered by her and her team. All the doctors should be more like her. THANK YOU Dr. Chan! We are forever grateful for you!

A big part of pregnancy is what happens in the delivery room. And as great and courteous as Dr. Nguyen was during the course of my pregnancy, the level of care and attention her L&D team showed me was indescribable. Each nurse that came into the room showed so much care and concern for me. I never felt uncomfortable or anxious. Delivery was a breeze. The entire team that was in the room was such great support. Although I was completely overwhelmed with delivering my son, they were in my corner the entire time encouraging me and making delivery such a relaxing experience. I'm now on day 4 of PP and I feel so good. Dr. Nguyen was so amazing making sure my post delivery recovery would be quick. I received first degree tears and she worked wonders with patching me up. Her level of care is not one to be overlooked. If you're looking for an ob/gyn with a 5 star delivery team, I highly recommend Dr. Nathalie Nguyen with Glendale Adventist Women's Network.

My pharmacy has been reaching out with no luck, and I've called multiple times but there is no answer and no option to leave a voicemail.

This is not the first time that this very same situation has occurred. Please contact me if you see this lol UPDATE: I've been calling Adventist Health's main phone line (instead of specifically Dr. Ho) and they keep just transferring me to the same two numbers that nobody is picking up and that I can't leave voicemails on. I am going to look into changing providers because I've never had this level of unresponsiveness, even when something didn't concern my physical safety and health
