    They waste your time shamelessly. We arrived at 3:45 as requested for a 4pm appointment. The place…read moreis supposed to close at 5. The waiting area was packed, like people with crutches leaning against the wall. It was clear they were running badly behind, and from the amount of people waiting, it was clear it's wasn't just one doctor running late. At 4:30, I asked the check-in desk how it was looking. There were 3 people ahead of us and they just took in the 3:15 appointment. It could be 30 minutes, it could be 45 minutes. "Depends if the people ahead of you have a lot of questions or need an X-ray." Um, are you hoping for people who ask no questions about their own medical condition? No explanation of how they were going to see us well after their closing time. No "sorry," which I guess would've been hypocritical anyway. By that point, I had checked Yelp and found it was par for the course, and sure enough, it was just another day of grossly overbooking the place at the expense of patients' time. We canceled soon after and left without being seen for a painful injury. Wish I could send them a bill for our time.

    Charles Savoca is an excellent acupuncturist. He's gentle, professional and so knowledgeable. I am…read moreconfident he will help me heal in his relaxed and comforting office. He's the best!

    Does NOT know what he is doing…read more You know for an acupuncturist you would assume they would be effectively using needles to treat your issue. Not the case here. I only came here because he was in-network through my fed workers comp, I had to go to his office in Aptos/Soquel because that was his earliest available appts and only does Monterey on Mondays. When I went in he hands you a questionnaire so I filled it out. Once we got into the room he asks you the same questions you had already filled out... Whats the point? He is very thorough about asking what's wrong, taking measurements, checking your flexibility and whatnot. That's about it, the actual treatment was laughable. He maybe put 4 needs altogether? 2 on my lower back and one on each Achilles area. He kept using a handheld electric unit every time I went in and was so focused on the scar on my back saying "That might be the cause". It was almost like it was his new toy and he wanted to use it so much and not even needles. Afterward, he left the room with the needles in for only 15 minutes which was very short usually, other acupuncturists would do the treatment for 30 minutes. He is also the first person to NOT use alcohol wipes on the area where he is about to use needles which was the first red flag. He doesn't give you any type of massage afterward. He doesn't do cupping which every other place I've been to does cause my muscles are very tense from overcompensating for a bad back. I had asked out of curiosity how much it would be without insurance and he said $95 per session. Which is way overpriced compared to another doctor I go to who does work and is sanitary. I had a microdiscectomy and ablation to my lower back and have a scar from the surgery, I am not pretending I have pain for workers comp. Like I am really in pain and it is affecting my everyday life. Here is the worst part of it all, I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt and went to him 3 times. After the first session, the pain in my lower back was WORSE, I had to do tens unit and multiple lidocaine patches at home. After the second session, I STARTED HAVING SCIATICA AGAIN!! Down to my right calf and down to my left thigh. I had the microdescectomy to get rid of the sciatica but somehow whatever he did with those handheld electric units it brought it back! On the third visit, I told him my problem, and he said let's do a motion test again. He even said let's not use the electric units this time cause obviously they aren't helping. After he didn't bother putting ANY needles in my lower back where the pain is and went straight to my legs but each needle he put in caused pain and I told him. So he took it out and just had me lay there with just heat on my back. Like why would anybody pay you $95 to just have heat on their back? He leaves for a few minutes in a panic and comes back (I'm guessing after googling) saying let's put needles in my ear. I stopped him right there cause I knew at this point he was just guessing. I brought my mother with me every time and she said he didn't know what he was doing and he couldn't seem to locate my nerves/pressure points and we should stop coming immediately, there are cases where quack doctors leave people nerve damaged for good cause they don't know what they are doing. He's only in Monterey on Mondays and when we went in. I saw multiple red flags of sage and crystals on the shelves... Also, my mother said there were some ingredients they had on display NOT even used in herbal Chinese medicine. Like I understand non-Asians looking at it and being like "Oh wow" but for us, it's like what the heck, do they even know what they are doing or are they just trying to mock us?

    I am deeply disappointed with the care I received at this urgent care. When my rapid strep throat…read moretest came back negative, the nurse practitioner immediately framed the situation as "it must be gonorrhea or chlamydia" and started me on STI treatment, presenting it as the only explanation. When I specifically asked if it could be something else, she essentially said no. This was not only inaccurate but also incredibly irresponsible. What should have been said was something like: "Because the rapid test is negative, I'll start you on antibiotics that cover different possibilities, including STIs, while we wait for the lab swab to come back. It may turn out to be another bacterial cause, such as tonsillitis, which won't show up on today's rapid test. Let's cover our bases until we know for sure." That would have been professional, accurate, and safe. Instead, I left the clinic believing I had an STI and accused my partner of giving it to me. This created serious and unnecessary distress and could have had lasting consequences for my relationship. Days later, I got my lab results back -- I do not have an STI. What I actually had was a severe case of tonsillitis caused by another bacterium. All of this happened while I was so ill that I hadn't eaten in two days and fainted in the exam room. For a provider to so confidently and incorrectly declare an STI, without caveats or confirmation, was not just careless -- it was unprofessional and potentially harmful. Clinicians have a responsibility to frame uncertain situations with caution and balance, especially when the social implications are so high. This experience fell far short of that standard.

    I recently had my first appointment at DOD Soquel location & everything went smoothly! From…read morescheduling my appointment to arrival & receiving exam results quickly. Everyone was very nice from the front desk to the nurse practitioner I was seen by. I highly recommend this location.
