After being temporarily laid off due to the pandemic, I was approved for Medi-cal and this was the first clinic that popped up when I searched Medi-cal accepted obgyn. They're located right next to a WIC store too. I felt right at home from day one. The staff there makes you feel like family. Even though my Medi-cal wasn't fully processed, Dr. Joy tried her best to get a hold of them and went ahead and saw me anyway. I was given pre-natal vitamins at my very first appointment. I've been there about 3 times now and everyone is great. I've never had to wait more than 15 minutes past my appointment time. They have you in and out. Thank you Doctor Joy and staff! I'll see you soon.

Doctor stated she wasn't seeing me for a UTI and will not address that issue. That I need to go back to my primary with concern or go to Urgent Care.

I saw her transferring the swab to the counter with her bare hands. Don't go! But I will say, the Spanish speaking assistant was very nice!!

First off, Dr. Al Azawi is a really nice person. BUT I still felt compelled to write a review to…read moreprevent others from experiencing the same "pains" as I did. If you don't know me in real life, I am for the most part, very relaxed and easy-going person. I don't usually make a fuss and it takes a lot for me to get annoyed or upset. With that said, after my experiences with this office as well as Lakewood IPA...I made the switch to Memorial Care Med Group and it was the best decision I've ever made. To give you a little background, I am about 25 weeks pregnant. I started coming to this office in Dec 2021. Things to note about the office (as of 03/22) - They just moved from Paramount to Lakewood, right next to the hospital. Note that it is TINY, which causes a back up of patients. I had an 11am appointment and was not seen until 12pm. - They DO NOT have an ultrasound machine. You have to go to Lakewood Regional which sucks because 1) it takes forever for insurance to approve the visit 2) you can't see your baby as often 3) you end up having to take more time off of work just for these check in appointments 4) if you need an ultrasound urgently, it will still take about 2 weeks - They DO NOT handle blood tests in their office anymore. You have to go to a lab, which often takes forever because you have to walk-in. Appointments are rarely available until about 3 weeks out. - She delivers at Anaheim Regional, NOT LB Memorial or Los Alamitos - The office is old school and are way behind on technology - Communication between the staff and patient are very poor. I felt like I had to follow up on everything because nothing was ever done the first time. And when I did follow up, some of staff had attitude - Some of my check in appointments were honestly a complete waste of time. At my most recent appointment, after waiting an hour, the Dr came in with handheld doppler to hear a heartbeat and that was it. She didn't do any physical checks, nor did I even pee in a cup. I didn't understand why I had to come in. - The doctor (again very nice) is wishy washy and changes her mind a lot. She doesn't seem to pay attention or listen well. Another reviewer mentioned this, and it's totally true. 1) Scheduled me for a glucose test where I had to change my diet 3 days prior and fast...come appointment day, she tells me I am too early and we have to wait another 3 weeks 2) Scheduled me for a physical check but didn't end up doing it 3) Had to do my Pap smear multiple times because she didn't take enough samples 4) Scheduled appointments every other week when OB's normally see you once a month...total waste of time The doctor is sweet but so many things added up over the course of 3 months, that I couldn't take it anymore. I'm so glad I made the switch where I know I am in better hands.

I had no idea that after 34wks it's harder for them to do the ultrasound since baby is head down. But they were still able to take me as a walk in.

All 3 girls were so sweet and nice the office is super clean, and well maintained. The ultrasound room is very spacious and the bed was super comfy! Very relaxing and calming over all. Thank you to both of the girls who made this experience amazing for me My ultrasound was today 01/18/2025 at around 12ish I wish I could have gotten their names ! Thank you girls so much !!

In my 2nd trimester now and I was able to move Clinics, found out I should have had plenty of tests done in my 1st trimester of being pregnant never did they ever care to let me know what tests needed to be done very stressful for myself and this is my 1st pregnancy. They don't care for there patients they overbook and make you wait hours to be seen, your never seen at your appointment time always 2hours later. Would not recommend coming here. Baby never got any test done and that is very frustrating because they don't tell you what tests need to be done on you or baby. OH they also lied and said my current OBGYN doctors office never sent over FORM OF RELEASE fax. When indeed they sent it over about 5times and para Latino OBGYN clinic said they never received until I went personally and dropped it off for them!!! This was already personal because they were making it so hard for me to switch providers.
