Canchola Gerardo MD - Santa Ana (CA)

1 /5 Alyssa Rogers: Very nice staff and doctor; however, the doctor doesn’t have any sanitary skills. I felt gross leaving my appointment. Anyways, I’ve been trying to get my prescription filled for the last few weeks (which should have been an automatic fill) and cant get a hold of anyone. I would sit on the call for over 30 minutes every time I called. I don’t recommend.

1 /5 Calvin Bryne: I had a terrible time with this office. I waited for roughly an hour to see the doctor. When I was finally able to meet with him, he had two other people in the room--one to take notes and another "trainee." He proceeded to handle our interaction entirely unprofessionally and in a manner that made clear to me that he lacked both an understanding of my medical issue and basic human empathy. He then shipped me out to a different office for bloodwork and said that he would refill a basic, recurring prescription. He never filled the prescription. I have called his office repeatedly, and have been told that he "will do it today" twice. I have now given up entirely. At the end of the day, this was a huge, upsetting hassle that provided me with no medical treatment. I would avoid this office at all costs.

1 /5 TJ Kinion: Ive been meaning to write this review for a while and feel bad that I didnt take the time to warn other people sooner. As Ive seen, since I visited Dr Cancholas office about 9 months ago, it seems like a lot of other people have had a similarly horrible experience to me. The only positive about Dr Cancholas office is that the nurses and PAs working there were friendly. And thats where it ends. Simply put, this man should not be practicing medicine. Im not sure what medical malpractice entails but if its misdiagnosing people, refusing to physically assess patients, and creating a dirty/unhealthy office space, then he checks all those boxes. How can someone practice medicine and not actually see what issues the patients have. This man sat 10 feet away, used "covid safety" as an excuse, and then transcribed what was going on to an assistant in the room. For more context, I was there to get my broken finger looked at, ask about a weird reaction that I was having on my lip, and asking about genetic testing since I was about to get married and thinking about having kids. Heres what happened... -He/his office ordered an X-ray for my finger but listed the wrong one. This was after he told me in the office "Im not sure how long a recovery would take, Im not that kind of doctor." -The allergy test he ordered for my lip only included nut allergies to be tested. Why would you only test one single thing? -Then when asking about genetic testing to ensure that my wife and I arent at risk for passing things along to our children he said, "Why does everyone want to test for these, I cant order you one since the last time I did, the patients insurance didnt cover it and I lost money." Google reviews dont seem to go a long way in the medical community, but if you have any control over where you can go, avoid this place at all costs. Thankfully my broken finger and irritated lip were not serious. I truly feel bad for the people with serious issues who visit Dr Canchola only to receive bad diagnoses, improper tests ordered, and likely end up worse than when they first walked in.
