Specialty Care: Adventist Health Clear Lake - Clearlake Tristan Schlick: I highly recommend this clinic.
I have very bad anxiety about visiting medical institutions and or hospitals,
But I was surprised at the amount of professionalism and courtesy that I received there.
Everyone I spoke to was very knowledgeable and patient.
And was not bothered by my reluctancy to be there.
I felt comfortable and well cared for.
The facility is very busy so I highly recommend that you make an appointment before going there.
Simply to make it easy for yourself.
Because they will try to help anybody as quickly as possible and there are walk-ins all the time.
So making an appointment will make the experience easier for yourself and for them.
In closing thank you Adventist health.
You have made me regain trust in medical institutions in lake county and especially in clear lake.
Pediatrics: Adventist Health Clear Lake - Clearlake Amanda Santana: Ive been taking my girls to Dr. Jamie Bhatia for almost 5 years now and have been seen by former Diaz as well as the other pediatricians. It hurts to see how terrible this clinic gets a bad rep but in all honesty, we LOVE the staff and our doctors. Yes the parking lot is horrid and the homeless lurk about as well as come into the clinic when they need help but truly its just like any other doctors office in the waiting room but we have nothing but praise for the staff and clinic. Its always clean, staff is friendly and helpful, and listen to what your concerns are at your appointment. I only give 4 stars due to the absolutely horrible parking lot and the random scary man or women who comes in yelling.
Banner Lassen Medical Center - Susanville David Overton: The staff at labor and delivery are nothing less than angels. My wife and newborn son wanted for nothing while under their care. Even after my wife was discharged and we had to wait for our son to be discharged, they still took care of all three of us. Thank you so very much to all involved with the birth of our son, Jasper!!!

ęøøč®°: 0 STARS ā AVOID LAC-USC ER AT ALL COSTS!!!
If you have a choice between going to LAC-USC ER or dying in the streetā¦ well, at least the street wonāt violate your privacy and let a psych patient steal your identity and would be cleaner.
Where do I even start? After confirming I had a fracture at urgent care, I was sent in circles between primary care and the ER for weeks, all while my broken elbow went untreated. My primary doctor couldnāt see me in-office and instead sent me to this hellhole for a cast and an orthopedic referral. Big mistake.
From the moment I arrived, I knew I was in trouble. I couldnāt even get in the front door because a psych patient was blocking the entrance. Security? Oh, they were just chilling, watching this happen and did nothing. After convincing her to let me through (because, apparently, patient safety is optional here), I checked in only to have the same psych patient overhear all my personal information and immediately attempt to check in as me! And the kicker? The nurse LET HER. No correction, no intervention. Just handed my birthdate over like it was a clearance sale. I now have the added bonus of identity theft trauma, courtesy of LAC-USC.
Then came the wait. Three hours just to get my vitals checked in a triage area that smelled like a cocktail of urine, vomit, and neglect. I watched patients actively bleeding, vomiting, and suffering in hallways while staff laughed, scrolled their phones, and took their sweet time doing anything remotely medical. Yes, ERs are busy but this wasnāt just busy. This was deliberate incompetence.
I have been to hospitals in third-world countries, have been admitted to hospitals overseas, and have personally worked in emergency medicine both in hospitals and prehospital. Never in my life have I seen an ER as disgustingly mismanaged as this one. The level of care and cleanliness in some of the poorest places in the world is still better than what LAC-USC ER provides.
After another two-hour wait (still no treatment, just sitting in filth), I had the pleasure of being harassed by yet another psych patient this one fresh out of prison, asking personal information telling me how he was trying to either get admitted or get arrested again so he could have a place to stay. Fantastic. At this point, my personal safety mattered more than my broken elbow, so I left AMA.
2 days ago my primary care finally was able to see me only to confirm that yes, my elbow is fractured, yes, I needed a cast, and yesā¦ I had to go BACK TO THIS ER because their office referral would take to long and its needs to be treated ASAP. I cant bring myself to come back here just the thought of this ER makes me sick!
Four. Weeks.
It has now been a full month with an untreated fracture, declining mobility, and worsening pain. I reached out to administration a week ago no response. No ombudsman, no accountability, no care. This is not just a bad hospital. This is patient neglect.
DO. NOT. COME. HERE.
If you need emergency care, try Cedars-Sinai, Huntington Hospital, or literally anywhere that doesnt smell like suffering and biohazards.
Shame on you, LAC-USC. You are a disgrace to healthcare, an insult to patient dignity, and a prime example of why people avoid hospitals at all costs. Fix your staff, fix your system, and for the love of God and all that is holy, CLEAN YOUR FACILITY!
My next step will be a Lawsuit since that seems to be the only way your administration will take things seriously..
Huntington Hospital - Pasadena Nev Banto: This hospital is such a great place. The staff are amazing. Everyone is so compassionate from janitors to the administration. I love this place. Iām always apprehensive about going to the hospital that I have never been to before and not knowing what to expect. They are very comforting, competent and capable. They actually listen to their patients. They actually communicate. They donāt just give you five minutes and walk out the door Iām disabled and the treatment that disabled people get in this country can sometimes be dehumanizing. This hospital no matter what your economic or social status or anything like that is, they treat you like a human they treat you like an equal with kindness and compassion
