    Ching Lee, M.D - CHECK your doctors bed side manners! False comment false assumptions of their patients and advocates and patient providers

    Dr. Lee has been my mother's provider for some time, but I hadn't needed to contact his office…read moreuntil recently, when she experienced a sudden change in condition, including high blood pressure, vertigo, and vomiting. Although Dr. Lee was not in the clinic that day, his nurse, Kimberly, handled my call with genuine care and professionalism. She was patient, compassionate, and made sure my concerns were promptly communicated. Dr. Lee returned my call very quickly after receiving the message. He even spoke directly with my mother to gather more information and carefully assess her condition before recommending appropriate next steps. He advised that she go to the ER; however, my mother was reluctant. When we asked about alternatives, he thoughtfully prescribed medication to help with her dizziness. Despite it being after 5 p.m., Dr. Lee personally called in a prescription to her pharmacy and followed up with me to confirm it had been done. I am incredibly grateful for both his and Kimberly's patience, kindness, and expertise. It's clear that Dr. Lee truly puts his patients first. I highly recommend him as a provider. Thank you, Dr. Lee and Kimberly for the great care of my mother Vivian C.

    This is one great doctor any patient could ask for…read more First time I was there, I was so mad that I almost want to kick their door and told them I WON'T BE BACK!!! Anyway,I was 22 minutes late for the new patient appointment and the receptionist told me I need to reschedule despite I told her I had spent more than an hour in traffic to get here from Dana Point. I was referred to this place by a friend who's mom used to be a patient here and that was like 6 yrs ago. Doctor had incredible memories and still remembered some details. As to the background of the doctor Lee Ching, his father practiced traditional Chinese medicine. He was influenced by it and won't ask you to take medication unless necessary. In contrary, he also told me he does not think the Chinese Medicine treatment I had been through can cure my heart problem...etc. The doctor spent lot of time for my first visit and ordered few lab tests that seem complete including all problems. I never feel rushed and I normally get anxious when I am at doctor's. Now I understand why I was late for the 1st visit and they had to ask me to reschedule. all I have to say...it totally worth the drive....

    Ching Lee, M.D - I asked the nurse, she told me to use the index finger to feel the soft and spongy of the vein instead looking for it.

    I decided to go to another doctor for second opinion after seeing this Dr Shams. He didn't diagnose…read morecorrectly. Pills was the only way he says was going to help. Don't like his suggestions to health problems as for instance smoking marijuana or taking medicine that makes people feel high and happy. I question his suggestions he is not addressing the actual health problems. I noticed he has a very swanky looking office. I had an excellent doctor years ago worked out of a very old office and was very good doctor he didn't need all these frills to make him a good Dr. I didn't like his staff very negligent. Never return call backs. Instructions for tests incomplete. Sometimes staff was argumental. I don't recommend this Dr. Don't agree to take medicine without a second opinion!!!

    I've been visiting Dr. Shams for over 12 years. I can honestly say I've never met anyone else like…read morehim. He is not only an excellent physician with integrity who takes the commitment of his oath with pride but, hilarious and giving and super loving to all of his patient's. Going to a check up feels like a party with his staff members. I always feel better physically & my spirits are always lifted as well. He once viewed my labs even though I was out of network and no longer his patient. He gave me a second opinion and helped me advocate for myself with my new providers. He treats everyone like family. I'm so thankful for him!

    I don't usually leave reviews but my experience with Dr. Scott Tran was so bad that I feel like…read morepeople should know before trusting him with their health. 1. Allergy Test Request: I specifically told him that I'm allergic to seafood, nuts, and eggs. I even mentioned that I accidentally ate shrimp recently and wanted to get an allergy test for confirmation and reassurance. Instead of helping me, he just brushed it off and said, "Oh you're allergic if you feel something, no need for a test. Are you sure you ate fish? Maybe it's something else you're allergic to." Basically gaslighting me -- even though my medical record already shows I've had an allergic reaction to fish sauce before. How hard is it to just order an allergy test? 2. Eczema (Lifelong Condition): I've had eczema since I was born. I went in with obvious flare-up symptoms: dry, flaky, itchy, white skin. I asked for a stronger prescription (hydrocortisone 2.5%) because the OTC 1% wasn't cutting it. I saw this guy FOUR separate times: 1st visit: He misdiagnoses me with keratosis pilaris (wrong). 2nd visit: He finally says it's eczema but claims that if I just moisturize and take cetirizine (basically prescription Zyrtec) it would "cure" my eczema. Which is absolute nonsense. 3rd visit: He literally frowns at me, asks me why I'm even there, and dismisses me in like two minutes. 4th visit: He finally caves and gives me a referral to a dermatologist. Now let me emphasize -- his office is always empty (literally maybe two people max in the waiting room) but somehow it takes 45 minutes to an hour to be seen. Then when he finally sees you, he barely spends more than 2 minutes in the room before dismissing you. If he's going to make patients wait that long, the least he could do is actually address the issue instead of brushing it off every single time. After the 4th visit, I switched him out as my PCP immediately. Saw the dermatologist and guess what? I DO have eczema, no, it does not just "go away" with cetirizine, and yes, I did need a steroid cream to manage the itching and flare-ups. Also, Dr. Tran confidently told me that using hydrocortisone could make me "turn albino." My dermatologist flat-out confirmed that's completely false. Overall: This doctor has a serious ego problem, dismisses patients, gives incorrect advice, and acts like he knows it all when he clearly doesn't. If you actually want answers and real medical care, don't waste your time here.

    If I could give the office 0 stars I would. The front office is terribly unprofessional. My…read moreinsurance has assigned me to this office and it has been over a month but they still refuse to make me an appointment. They have had my medical records for over 3 weeks and continue to make up excuses as to why I cannot be seen by the physician. I went in person hoping to resolve any confusion but still got no answers, only excuses. While waiting I overheard another patient argue with the office manager about being overcharged for a service and she could not explain what the charges were for. It seems like there are a lot of issues with this office and if this how the physician allows his office to be run, I highly doubt the quality of care will be any different. Avoid this office at all costs.
