The Best 18 MEDICAL SERVICES near Ukiah, CA (Part 2)

Shirley Kleim I needed to have x-rays taken at the Pavilion. The staff at the desk were very pleasant and the check in process went very smoothly. I waited approximately 10 minutes and was called back to have the x-rays done. The technicians were very pleasant and took their time to help me complete the procedure. The ER is the same as is the main hospital that I have been in several times. Thank You to ALL of You for taking care of US in Ukiah!!❤️

Baas Lacy (Rainy143) Great staff! Unfortunately the chairs in the waiting room next to radiology are very uncomfortable I was there for a few hours and my butt was going numb from sitting on them. Other than that everything was great the hospital is clean tidy! And the stuff is very welcoming.

Pat Howard Everyone in this office is courteous. We love Dr. Powers. She gets right on the floor with our Golden Retriever and examines her. Our dog is not traumatized at all. We bring our cats here as well. They understood euthanizing our old kitty was very emotional for me. They did their best to make me feel comfortable and cared for during this process.

S L I have had two cats spayed (about to be 3) at the hospital and the caring attitude, helpfulness and kindness of the staff is exceptional. They are super professional and very careful with the animals they handle. I have full confidence in the knowledge and skill of their veterinary staff and I highly recommend them. Also, their prices are excellent.

Francesca Defatte The Dr was very nice and helpful. She explained the results of my MRI and XRay. Referred me to a specialist. I later found out that because of the type insurance I have. I did not need to have a referral. It was the Dr office and Adventist healths system that does. This resulted in a two week delay in gettin an appointment.

Tamah McQueen Because I had symptoms of sore throat, fever, congestion, etc. in the last 14 days, I was told I had to sit outside! I was NOT symptomatic at my appointment and was NOT offered a mask. I was directed to one of 2 chairs that were outside the office door. It was a cold day and I did not have a coat. It was miserable sitting outside. My appointment was at 4pm and it finished at 5:45pm. I spent over an hour and a half waiting. At one point I went into the area where the staff was and asked if I had been forgotten. I have had great care at this facility in the past. This apppintment was awful!

Jody G My preferred hospital for everything. No matter how busy or slow, the staff have always been wonderful, made me feel at ease and explained anything Ive asked about. Glad to have the option to use Adventist Health in Fort Bragg.

Sarah RL The front desk has the friendliest people working on it - just lovely. He had blood work done for something very serious. Three hours after he had the blood test , I was called to hear the results…. Can you imagine that. It’s also , always very clean and the nurses are more than competent. Need I say more…

Douglas Taylor The facility was clean. The staff was friendly and efficient. My doctor spent the required time with me. And the outcome was excellent. I definitely recommend them to the people in my community.

Tracy L. Carnahan I spent 10+ years at Hillside. I even moved away and came back then moved away and tried another doc for a whole year. I still came back and drove the 3 hr. round trip to see my doc. Sarah Alvord there. Im what is called a complicated patient meaning Im very sick with a couple here serious issues. I never had to wait long and had the number for her nurse if anything went wrong. I cant do the trip anymore or Id still be there. I have never seen such good service and wonderful docs from a county med. center.

pam terrell I mixed up my appointment date and came a day early. They kindly fit me in an hour later. We had driven from Willits so it was greatly appreciated. The staff was very professional and kind. Thank you!!

Audrey Bridges My appointment was quick and to the point. I requested Carolyn because she knows what to say when you’re nervous and is very sweet and professional. The only issue I had was that I was unable to make an appointment while being on a waitlist which was very frustrating. But other than that it was great.

Judith Fournier Still on hold! Did they go home for dinner? 25 April 2019 4:48 PM Second try and still holding with nothing after 10 minutes.

Stacy McCoy Take orders with you. They never seem to get the faxes in a timely manner.

Andrea Lippincott Brought my dog in 4 days ago for a neuter. They tell me he has a descendent testicle. Mind you this dog has NEVER been an aggressive dog he’s a big love. They pinned him down to check for his other testicle and kept doing it for about 5 minutes. He tried attacking everyone in the room. We are now in Santa Rosa 4 days later he can’t eat and is drinking excessive amount of water. In a ton of pain in his abdominal area. I wouldn’t bring my dead pet fish there if my life depended on it. HORRIBLE PLACE. And he said he would go ahead and take out the one testicle that he could see. WHO DOES THAT? $2,100 later the VCA saved my dogs life. And we have to go back for a bunch of testing again. The vet in Ukiah obviously didn’t do a thorough exam like they said they did. We was literally dying and probably wouldn’t have made it another couple of days. It was an easy find if they would do their job right. There isn’t any records to be transferred. Because I won’t be going back to your low grade vet. I’m almost 8k in the hole now over you guys absolutely not caring. We were at your place for not even an hour. So what kind of records do you have?

Bonnie Riley We had our recently-acquired rescue spayed here and they were wonderful, including with all our follow-up questions. Then most recently, our dog became suddenly ill. They got her in right away, ran diagnostics and got her on the road to recovery. When considering a plan of care, they discussed options and included the financial aspect, as well. Fortunately, I had the forethought to get pet insurance, but I still appreciated the discussion. The staff was kind and caring, and we think theyre terrific. I will add that we live over an hours drive from them and they are not our regular vet, but our normal office is so booked up, short-staffed, and busy, that Ukiah Vet has become our backup. if we didnt live so far away, they would definitely be our vet of choice.

Shelby “Shelolly” I had a pretty good experience. I called at 8 am for a same day appointment. I made the same day appointment with staff and was in and out of the office in 45 minutes. All staff were really nice and helpful. No complaints.

Rebecca Bullshields I was so happy with my visit overall, from the kind woman who helped me get scheduled , to the knowledgeable and kind hearted dental crew who helped me immensely. I had an abscessed tooth , the dentist took one look and offered to remove it right away. Instead of making me come back multiple times. I am forever grateful to them . Thank you Helen, and Dr. Nguyen.

Aly Hughes When I had my second baby Seema was the Dr who I went to and it was a high risk pregnancy. In the delivery room I was left alone pushing by myself and Seema didnt come in the room till I was fully dialated. There was no nurse helping me through my breathing. I wish I never went to Seema. I felt like she didnt care. My son had complications and had to be sent off to UCSF. I truly believe if someone was there helping me through the breathing and pushing my son wouldnt have had complications. Seema is the worst delivery Dr in my opinion and a high risk Pregnancy Dr at that. I felt so alone and scared.

Kayla Griffanti-Bowers She was great with my first pregnancy with her. Recently went through a misscarriage and didnt get the care I should have received. She didnt tell me my options, allowed me to go home and wait with no information on what to expect or what to do considering how far along I was. I had a follow-up appointment that needed to be rescheduled and the staff told me to call back if I needed them and didnt reschedule an appointment. Hopefully no one else has to go through an experience like this.

David Elecciri Being a former Head Football, TRACK & FIELD & Weight lifting coach…. I admire DR.PLOSS’s Cool Method of explaining the situation of my diagnosis! He is helping me deal with AFIB! I appreciate his time with me and especially answering questions from my inquisitive wife! I highly recommend DR. PLOSS! A GOOD MAN & Cardiologist!

Garrett Williams Dr. Ploss and his staff were beyond all expectations helpful, alert, calming, and clear about my options through an ablation operation and a short time after installation of a pacemaker, which he did himself. It was necessary on very short notice as I was moving and he made that happen. I am very grateful to have had him as my doctor. Hes my sisters cardiologist as well, and came highly recommended from her. Thank you, Dr. Ploss!

Autumn Rain Doctor Jess was hands down amazing. They were kind, caring, and attentive. Conscious and understanding of my past trauma. If you’ve had bad experiences in the past look no further Dr.Jess and the staff are wonderful.

K Carmi I arrived to my appointment 10 minutes early in case i had to fill it out paper work because it wouldve been my first time, the girl receptionist (her name started with Ca, she had hair over her name tag) was very very rude telling me that my appointment was not till 1, and why i was there 11 minutes before my schedule appointment, and saying that none of the workers had yet gonna to lunch and that no one was going to see me till 45 minutes after my schedule appointment, also. She was zero professionalism, zero polite while saying all that. Things can be understood when saying the proper way with respect and professionalism and she had zero.

Alene B My friend had a C section and complication after with her bladder. She was not treated well. Doctor cho was going to just send her home with a cath bag. Nurses told her since she wont pee on her own. SHE COULDNT not she wouldnt. After we got a urologist to come look at her they took her back in 4 days later. They said after that she had a scratch on her bladder. That was not true either cause later after that she finally had the urge to pee. So yes he had to of stitched her bladder. Came home then late that night had to go to ER by ambulance and they said she had an infection. This poor lady did not deserve this treatment. Its still not over she still on a cath. Nobody should be treated like this by any doctor nor nursing staff.

Ashley Ricci Dr cho and his staff are great and very welcoming . Along with going there for other visits, he has delivered both of my kids and I wouldnt hesitate once to go back to him again. He is very caring and takes the time to talk to you and explain things as well as listen. He really cares about his patients. Ive never felt more comfortable with a doctor.

Sage Aikin Horrible patient care. They do not listen to their patients and have no regard for their safety. They refuse to preform necessary procedures and only want to preform what they want to preform. All they care about is the money they get so they try to force you to make multiple appointments just so they can bill your insurance more. Will never be going here and I wouldnt recommend it to anyone.

Kyndra McKrola This place is a JOKE! I have had so many issues with them rescheduling me for my first procedure, offering me four times for one day that they cant figue it out, as one office told me one time, and the people performing the procedure had another, I was mailed another , and I was called and confirmed with Another! When I got there the MA yelled at me for being "an hour early" and said I would have to wait... I had brought my own magazines, and was prepared, and then half an hour later, they came out and said they thought theyd already taken me back.... The surgical team apologize, profusely. But it really wasnt their fault... (The surgical staff was amazing, and I wish I could give them a separate review). I even complained to a higher up manager, and it fell on ignorant ears!!! And Now after being on the books for 6 weeks, they again are rescheduling me, days before my appointment. I have to schedule work and find a ride to this procedure, (who also has to request time off of work), and they cant get their information together. Its really sad, and Terrible customer service. Utterly disrespectful and disappointing.

Dave Lakatos I received the best care from Dr. James ODorisio and Dr. Johnathan Kreger in treating my diabetic foot ulcer that would not heal up. Other doctors wanted to do a complete amputation procedure of my left foot and Dr ODorisio and Dr Kreger setup a treatment plan to avoid having it amputated and it worked great and saved my foot.

Hortencia D. Had urgent referral made for my mother whos 76years old. First told they didnt get referral, had it sent a 2nd time, then told they would review it, today or tomorrow. So I call the next morning after taking my mom to ER, and was told my ER doc, to call and check about referral only to be told they had not reviewed it, they will review it later today, and that they will most likely fit her in next week. When I said were trying to prevent her from losing a toe, she said well did ER put her on an antibiotic? Really get thru the the RUSH Referral and get her in to see someone. Im on day 2 of calling and getting no where, and was told she most likely would be seen middle of next week. FOR a Urgent Referral. WOW

Deidra Vaughan At the beginning I really liked going here. Dr. Conroy was great. However towards the end of my pregnancy I started to feel pretty off and at one of my last appointments I was told my blood pressure was high but "it wasnt of concern" so I listened. I then did go out of town and did reschedule an appointment wich was my bad but there was no concern so I didnt think much of it. I get home and my feet are swollen and my blood pressure is very high. I then went to the ER and was flown out to Santa Rosa. I was diagnosed with Pre-eclampsia. I was in the hospital for 4 days and then released. Later that night into the early morning I wasnt feeling ok so I called the Dr. in Ukiah because it is closer and all I was told was to just take more blood pressure medication and she had not much concern and did not tell me to go to the hospital or anything. I got kind of upset on the phone because I knew something wasnt right but all she kept telling me to do was just take an other blood pressure medication. I ened up hanging up on her and called the hospital in Santa Rosa where I last was and they emidiatly told me to come back. My husband and I drove from Fort Bragg all the way there and Im glad we did. My blood pressure was even higher than it was at home. The blood pressure medication did nothing and I actually ended up having a bad reaction from it. Santa Rosa is the one who prescribed the medication to me and I was fine on it for a bit but I was only supose to take it twice a day and I told Conroy that and she still insisted I take it. Im glad I listened to my gut and called Santa Rosa back and came in. I am now here until I deliver. Just a heads up that Ukiah does not take babies born under 34 weeks. I highly recommend Sutter Health in Santa Rosa. Also if you feel like something is off while pregnant please do not brush it off or let a doctor tell you other wise.

Jaems Bond The care I have received has been professional and highly educated service. The people that treat you there, are caring and intelligent about what they do.

NORCARL707 C.Valle I recently had to have an MRI. The technician was the best. The tech asked if I would like to listen to music while I had the imaging done. I gladly did. The tech asked what kind of music I liked so that I could stay more relaxed. I chose the 80s and was relaxed the whole time. The tech let me know what was happening every step of the way. This place is amazing. I highly recommend!

Sheila English I went in for a special test and was greeted warmly and treated well. While there I saw someone come in with their small child and even though the mother allowed the child to run amok the staff were patient and kind. I was surprised at how many people bring their children and think the staff should help babysit. Or they dont make their children behave. The staff handled it all so well.

Konstance Hawkins Dr. Chan has been my physician for years and I highly recommend him.

Luisa Rodriguez If I could give no stars I would. My family and I have been caring for my mother that is bed bound. She was in the hospital for many issues and was sent home with a new medication list that was sent to Dr Chan. My mother is unable to get into his office as she is not mobile and has been a patient of Dr Chans for over 20 years. We called Dr Chans office many times to F/U on her medication that were not sent to her pharmacy. Here we are almost three weeks later and she has not been on her Warfarin because the Dr and nurse can not get it together. I can not get my mother into establish care with another provider as we can not get her to the office at this time due to her being bed bound. I work in the medical field and Im sadden to see this type of patient care they are providing. As soon as we are able to transfer care we will. My Dad is a patient of his as well and he will definitely be transferred to another practice. Please reconsider sending your loved ones to this practice, please.
