I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Ravindran in June 2024 after waiting nearly three and a half…read moremonths due to my complex medical history. Despite my appointment being at 4:00 PM, I was running about 10 minutes late and called the office to ensure my appointment wouldn't be canceled. They assured me it would be fine and confirmed I was on my way. I arrived at the office and checked in at exactly 4:13 PM. However, when the front desk checked with Dr. Ravindran, she refused to see me. I even requested very politely about my wait time for this appointment and my complex medical history. As a healthcare worker, I understand the frustration with consistently late or no-show patients, but this was my first time, and I had called in advance. This was an incredibly unempathetic and unreasonable service. I am very disappointed. I would have given a negative star if possible.

I have left my number with the receptionist, I left my number on the voicemail this morning (which she claims she never got) and if I didn't call back, she would have just done nothing. Since the other office hadn't called her back, she didn't have a fax number. I found it in a minute using Google. When are people going to accept accountability for their actions and maybe take a little initiative. With what we pay to see doctors, it would be helpful if their staff cared that they are dealing with actual people and not patient files! ******************************************************************************* Dr. Martin, from all the doctors I've had to see, seems to be genuine and sincere with her care for patients. I would recommend her (and only her). However, she's based out of Concord and is only in Vallejo on Fridays. The issue is her staff! Valerie, the new patient coordinator is extremely rude. I had to speak to a manager just to book the appointment. On 7/6/18, I called to ask for a referral to Sacramento. Anyone who knows Vallejo, knows it's a horrible city and being forced to go there and then sit in traffic back to the Fairfield (and the rest of Solano Co) is nothing short of a nightmare (esp. on a Friday)! I mean, I'm supposed to have a say in my doctor and my care, but Sutter refuses to allow that to happen; esp. in the city I live vs making me travel completely out of my way. Who needs to work? After all, my medical bills must be paid by the medical fairy...I digress.... I was told by the receptionist, someone would call me back. On Wednesday (7/11/18), after not hearing from anyone, I called again, at 12:15 to follow-up. The receptionist couldn't reach the referral coordinator. Told me she was probably on lunch, but she would call me back. I call back later, at 3:55 p.m., the receptionist tries the billing coordinator again. Apparently, she hasn't been in all day. I explained, very calmly, that waiting all this time to hear back, when communication is not only expected, but important, is completely unacceptable. Her response is they get busy. Great...it's been four days....still unacceptable. I was told I'd receive a call the next morning. Did I receive the call? NOPE! So, I call again. Same receptionist. She said she spoke with the referral coordinator at 8:45 that morning and let her know she needed to call me. I had to leave a voicemail for the referral coordinator, because the receptionist just put me there, without giving me the option of speaking to someone else. I decided I had enough...I called back to speak to Dr. Martin herself. Apparently, she's out of the office today and tomorrow. My take on this is the referral coordinator is dodging my calls because she forgot to speak with the doctor on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday...we won't mention the previous Friday as the other opportunity. So, here I am...stage 3...wanting to see a doctor, that doesn't require me to go to the ghetto and be associated with a sub-par facility like Sutter Solano, and I can't get one person from the office to return a call. Doctors are only as good as their staff and since the staff is barring access to said doctor, I've been left with no choice but to file a grievance with my insurance carrier (not holding my breath on that either), but at least it's on record.

When I was first diagnosed I was completely against chemotherapy because I was scared. She patiently explained that with a Stage III diagnosis it is medically necessary and that they are able to treat and prevent most side effects. With her help, I experienced mild side effects and was still fairly mobile. I did lose all my hair which was heartbreaking but she did tell me that would happen. I was able to email her with questions or concerns and she always got back to me even if it was a weekend or evening. My nurses were absolutely wonderful and made me feel as comfortable as possible during my treatment. The admin staff is also friendly and helpful. This facility desperately needs a bigger parking lot but besides that my rating says it all!

My…read moresurgery was seamless (well, OK, three small seams on my abdomen) and recovery was quick, easy and nearly pain free. EBMT told me that Dr. Kerlin is known for careful work. Since the body is good at healing itself, some surgeons just cut and dissect and manipulate the tissues without much care beyond not doing any real damage. Dr. Kerlin on the other hand, is known for doing the least "collateral damage" reasonably possible given the surgery to be done. And it sure shows in how little pain I had and how quickly I recovered. She also has a very pleasant manner and is very easy to talk to about your condition and the surgery process. The only reason I take away one star is for her staff. Her patient coordinator did a really terrible job of pre-op coordination. I needed to get labs done and an EKG. She said she would mail the forms and instructions the day after I scheduled my surgery, six weeks ahead. Instead, I had to call two more times before she actually mailed them, and they arrived with so little time before my surgery that I had to drop everything, reschedule clients, and spend half a day at John Muir Medical Center to get them done in time before the surgery. I would still use Dr. Kerlin if I need surgery again, but now I know that I have to stay on top of her staff and not let them put things off.

One year ago, my Mom was diagnosed with 3-4 stage non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. We transferred her from…read moreNew York State and she was fortunate to enter the Jon Muir health system and be treated by Dr. Tang. Her treatment was nothing short of outstanding. Dr. Tang was caring yet firm, understanding and thorough. We tested and evaluated, and then settled on a course of treatment. Since Mom is 88 years old, Dr. Tang was concerned about the treatments themselves causing harm. We started slowly, at less than full dose, ramping dosage as Mom found she was able to tolerate the chemotherapy. Throughout it all, Dr. Tang was supportive, involved, concerned, and professional. She gave us encouragement and positivity when the treatment regimen was challenging, and reveled with us when Mom's PET scan came back negative. Dr. Tang truly invested herself in Mom's treatment, and it made a huge difference in her outcome. There is no question about recommending Dr. Tang - if you have been diagnosed with cancer, there is no better physician with the proper blend of medical expertise and professional care mixed with kindness and understanding.

After multiple medical errors over the years by other doctors, that many doctors refused to properly document, she took the effort to review my records and provide the most accurate medical record that I have had since the first error in 2010- proving to be the most ethical doctor I have ever interacted with. It takes a special person to stand up against the flow in medical systems. She is that type of person. The type that would stand up and say that is wrong. Ethical enough not to work for system that were no aligned with her ethical integrity. A very rare find. She even found the root cause of the of the issues that were missed for years along with doing a very thorough GI work up-greatly improving symptoms and lessening risk damaging other organs. Noting that I have been going to a Functional Medicine GI doctor and did not have such a thorough GI work up. I wish her the best and hope that everything is ok with her. We are not sure why she ended up closing her practice, I hope everything is good, but rating her closing her practice is not rating her as the excellent doctor she is. I wish that someone as smart and ethical as her would be filling the space-but that isn't happening-sadly.

I started seeing Dr. Michaud last year after my former FNP (and awful GI doc) ignored some serious symptoms. She has a great bedside manner, is smart, proactive, and thinks outside of the box. She even came up with possible diagnoses other specialists missed. Although we never figured out the cause, she took EVERYTHING I told her VERY seriously. As a veteran patient, I cannot count how many doctors downplay or ignore serious symptoms. Dr. Michaud not only does the opposite of those doctors but should also teach other doctors how to take their patients' concerns seriously. I was able to get in the following week after scheduling as a new patient and never had difficulty getting appointments. Her receptionist, Annabelle, and her MA, Rachel are friendly and helpful. I wish I found her sooner and had more time to be her patient. Thanks Dr. Michaud for listening to me and helping me as well as serving as an example for the care I hope to provide my patients as a family physician one day!
