All the nurses, who give the shots, are wonderful. I've gotten to know several of them over the years. The front desk is very kind and professional. They always help me out with my appointments. This location is nice because I have other medical Dr.'s in the same location. Makes it convenient for me.

Impossible to book a dermatologist appointment unless you want to wait 3 months or more. Once you…read morebook something, your dermatologist may like they did with me then referred to their nurse practitioner because they don't wanna deal with you for something very simple . Then after you make an appointment with your nurse practitioner they want you there 15 minutes early but they're allowed to let you wait 30 mins past your own appointment time . To be fair the np is really great once you're in front of her.

Honestly, the only positive thing I can say about this location is the pharmacy. I've never had to…read morereally wait very long for anything and it is smaller and much closer to me because I live in Mountain View. I don't want to have to drive all the way into Santa Clara to pick up prescriptions. So the convenience of the pharmacy is the only good thing about this location for me. When it comes to their pediatrics and gynecological services, I was most disappointed and wound up switching to doctors for my daughter and myself, at the Santa Clara location. First of all because this is a small building, their examination rooms reflect this in that they are tiny and borderline claustrophobic. Another thing I was unimpressed with was the lack of updating and cleanliness. Everything seemed dated and a little rough around the edges, which is interesting. I was very unhappy with the final appointment I made for my baby at this location. Instead of taking her to an examination room to administer her shots, they literally brought us back into what appeared to be something like nurse quarters, and we sat at a desk. My daughter was propped up onto the desk and that's where they gave her, her shots. It was strange, uncomfortable, and confusing. It was a weird vibe to be honest. Especially because even though we are at the doctors office, this space did not seem clean enough to be administering shots. I had always been taken back to an examination room with my daughter, so this was just a weird experience overall. Moving on to my final gynecological appointment at this location..,right off the bat, I was made to feel extremely uncomfortable by the nurse who brought me back to the examination room. She looked absolutely miserable. She hardly looked at me in the face and looked like she was angry/annoyed to be working. Almost like I was inconveniencing her by having an appointment. Most of us ladies aren't exactly thrilled to be going to the gynecologist either, but typically nurses tend to put you at a little bit more ease. And this nurse should probably find a different job if this is how she approaches patients. Now, even though my appointment was very thorough, my gynecologist discovered an ovarian cyst that needed to be monitored. The problem is while she voiced this information to me, she never entered this information or details from this appointment, into my records. So years later, when I continue to have issues with this cyst, I have had to explain to subsequent doctors that this ovarian cyst was discovered in 2023, and that my gynecologist at the time, never entered it into her notes. It's very inconvenient and unprofessional for that to have happened. So in the end, after weird and unprofessional interactions in pediatrics and gynecology, plus the fact that the exam rooms are tiny, I decided it was best to return to doctors at the Santa Clara location. Examination rooms are always small, but the ones at the Santa Clara location are definitely bigger and more accommodating.

Would you wait in line 2+ hours? Guardians of the Galaxy, or Taylor Swift tickets yes, but covid19…read morevaccine? Sept 9, 2024 first day of the new covid vaccine comes out at Kaiser, with people lined up at 8am, even though they don't open until 9am. No appointments needed -first come first served with one exception. If you are covered by Kaiser and go to Safeway, the vaccine will cost you $80. If you go to CVS it will cost you $120. Those places got the vaccine a week earlier. Medicare no longer covers the cost of the vaccine for those 65+, and the federal government no longer provides free covid vaccines for everyone else. We last got the vaccine in May 2024, but that was the same vaccine we got in Sept 2023. The Sept 9 2024 vaccine is for the new covid variants. The Mountain View Kaiser medical center is open 9am-430pm weekdays only, and closed weekends. Those of you still working will have to go to Santa Clara medical center open later hours and on weekends. We got in line at 11:15am, with the line winding around and into the building. Free wifi outside the building courtesy of city of Mountain View, covering all of the downtown area. Takes us until 1:30 to get the vaccine. There are four stations for getting the vaccine, but at times two of the stations are vacant, as the employees are out to lunch. People in wheelchairs or pushing four wheel walkers get to go to the head of the line, along with their handlers, without waiting. Security let at least 8 people jump ahead of us, even though we were waiting 2 hours in line already. At the vaccine station they look up your age, and base the amount of vaccine dose on your age. Next time, will have to check if I have any four wheeled walkers left used by my late parents.

I am in the middle of a three-week fiasco trying to get a prescription filled and have called multiple times, left messages everywhere in their phone tree (I even sent an email) and haven't actually spoken to an employee or doctor in the entire time. I'm not even sure they're still in business at this point because all I get are recordings and no call backs. Luckily, I was able to get my GP to issue a replacement prescription today after going without my medication (and being in a decent amount of pain as a result) for over two weeks while I was waiting for any sign of life from anyone at this office. Seriously, not even an email. In three weeks of repeated calling, they haven't answered the phone or returned any of my many messages. I can't imagine how things would be going for me right now if I were having a significant issue. Zero follow up and zero service on something as simple as a prescription refill. What a mess. Take your valuable time and trust elsewhere to an office that cares about its patients.

I called the Peninsula Gastroenterology Medical Group to make an appointment with Dr Vicky Yang for…read morea routine colonoscopy. The receptionist told me Dr Yang's assistant Chialin Lee would call me on 6/30 to schedule the appointment with me, but the receptionist didn't tell me the phone call would be considered to be a face-to-face office visit to Dr Yang. When Dr Yang's assistant Lee called me on 6/30. I told her right away to set up an appointment for a routine colonoscopy, and I also told her that my insurance 100% covered for that. But She insisted to schedule an appointment for gastroscope. She required me to do gastroscope first, then colonoscopy later. I reluctantly agreed. Soon I had to cancel it - completely wasted my time. A few weeks after Lee called, Dr Yang billed me $312.89 as an office visit - for the phone call with Lee on 6/30. Since the call was for making an appointment for Gastroscope, not for colonoscopy, my insurance didn't cover it. I tried to talk to the office manager. Called many times. No one answered the calls. Eventually someone picked up the phone. But she said the manager was very busy and would call me back later. But the manager never contacted me. So I made a complaint to BBB. I found another patient had complained a similar issue. They didn't respond to that patient's complaint at all, even with the help of BBB. Perhaps, all were our patients' faults. They seemed not to need patients at all. Why did we trouble them? So sorry, dare not to bother you guys anymore in the future.
