Maija S.

The most professional and responsive local physician's office I've found in the area, UCLA Health in Palos Verdes has been amazing for me and my husband. We use the MyChart app for questions and scheduling as well as messaging our doctors directly, keeping track of immunizations and visit notes, and getting reminders. The office is clean and organized, staff are friendly and extremely competent, from the front office staff to the attendings and nurses and the doctors themselves. We always feel welcome and taken care of and Dr. Maija Sanna provides personal and professional care that shows she sees us as individuals and cares about our health and well-being. We are so happy we've found this office!

Melissa N.

I have been an officer in the Army for about 30 years and have been across the globe and received health care at a multitude of different locations. The Care, internal fortitude, pre-thoughts that Melissa displayed were incomparable to any that I received ever. I just wanted to personally thank her for the professionalism and level of detailed attention she paid to my needs. It goes to show the unquestionable character and leadership she has for her craft. Thank you many many times over.

Ruchi J.

As a active duty army member I've received care around the globe and I recognize when I have received care above and beyond my expectations. Dr. Ravin Jain was been superiorly essential to my recovery and my vocabulary cannot express in words how thankful I am to receive her care. I just wanted to say thank you, from me and my family. I'm not out of the woods yet but with the level of attention received I'm sure I will be soon.

Thank you Dr. John Timmerman for the 15 years of excellent care of that you have given me. Your treatments have not only kept me alive, but healthy too. In addition to being a very brilliant physician, you are a very compassionate human being with a very good heart for people. As I move on to another part of the country, I thank you for the referral that you gave me as well. I will never forget you, nor what you've done for me. I am eternally grateful to you.

Oscar H.

I want to thank Dr. O. Joe Hines, Ingrida Klausa and all of his team for the wonderful care my son received while a patient at UCLA Medical Center. Not only was his surgery performed flawlessly without complications but the entire team kept me informed during and after surgery and checked on him several times during his stay. Dr. Hines took the time to come to Maddie's room to speak with me after surgery and saw my son the following day on the unit. We never felt rushed to be discharged, as a matter of fact everyone was encouraging us to stay if we weren't comfortable going home. I have been an RN for over 35 years and believe me when I tell you this was incredible care and I'm so thankful my boy was in such great hands.

Sepehr T.

Dr. Sepehr Tehrani and his team cared for my son during his surgery on March 7th. He was informative and thorough and made me (mom and nurse) feel like my child was in great hands. He explained everything to my son and checked in on him after surgery. Thank you so much for spending time and caring for us like we were your only patients though I'm sure you had many surgeries that day. You and your team took such good care of my boy and I am forever grateful.

Maddie's R.

The staff, including volunteers, in Maddie's room is so patient and accommodating. While waiting for my mom, I must have said to myself 5-6 times, wow these guys have the patience of saints, And they do! They are also very organized and discreet, and just wonderfully kind. Our entire experience today has been top notch. Thank you.

Jason L.

I would like to share my experiences with one of the UCLA physicians at the Toluca Lake UCLA medical offices. His name is Dr. Jason Lee. He has been my primary doctor for several years now and I can honestly say he is just OUTSTANDING. He always goes above and beyond in his care, answering my questions in layman's terms and always making sure I understand any treatments or diagnosis. His professionalism, kindness and overall patient experience is not something you find everyday. I am so thankful that you have him as part of your UCLA family and I wanted to express my gratitude and appreciation. Often doctors may only hear the "bad" experiences and I wanted to make sure his management heard what makes you different than other providers, and that is having doctors like Dr. JASON LEE!

Dr. Ginger Slack is a good listener and she's very personable. Her bedside manner makes me feel comfortable to talk with her regarding an upcoming procedure. I'd like to compliment her and her team for taking good care of me. Overall, I'm very satisfied with the care that I've been receiving from UCLA Medical Center.

Eddie was an excellent nurse and friend to me while I was in the hospital for an extended time period. He was professional in his work and empathetic with his care. One of the best nurses I have come across without a doubt.

Charles Y. T.

I am so grateful to Dr. Charles Tseng and his team for the excellent care, compassion and expert skill demonstrated during my mastectomy and DIEP flap reconstruction. Dr. Tseng is an artist. I really feel like myself after my mastectomies. I don't feel like I had to lose my breasts. The shape, size and feel of my breasts is remarkable similar to before my mastectomies.

Belinda N.

People like Belinda, is who this world needs it feels good to call and schedule an appointment and be greeted on the other end of the phone, with such a warmth and a genuine caring person. She truly went above and beyond to make sure I could be seen soon, during these times appts are limited but she made it happen. Not , only did Belinda schedule my Gyn visit , she insisted she schedule all my other specialty appointments. To be taken care of like this is priceless this young lady gets all the stars from me.

Kirsten A.

Kirsten Anthony is a Physical Therapist. She was super attentive to my needs during my recovery from a painful surgery. When I started therapy, I needed to learn to walk correctly using a cane. I also needed to stretch and strengthen my body without causing pain. Kirsten used many modalities, and did nothing that would hurt me. She closely monitored my progress from week to week and stepped up my exercises accordingly.

Kirsten was patient and watched me like an eagle as I learned new exercises. She gave me corrections as needed which helped a lot. Her encouragement and support helped me progress to now being able to walk more than two miles without pain. I'm very grateful to Kirsten and to UCLA for hiring such a highly qualified therapist. She is an excellent care-giver as well as an expert representative of UCLA's high ranking in medical care. And she also happens to be a very nice person.

Karina N.

This nurse made ALL the difference in the world to us. She was an advocate for the patient and calming essence throughout the process. It wasn't just kindness and compassion that did the trick, she listened, assessed and intervened. My husband shared with me how a simple suggestion of how to reach the perfect body position allowed him to relax and receive spinal anesthesia successfully. She accomplished so much throughout in a calming, compassionate, and highly skilled fashion. We thank her so much.
