Pioneer Medical Group - Los Alamitos

Inadequate doctors and care. Fail to order timely definitive diagnostic tests. Fail to timely act on results. Refered patient to substandard Los Alamitos with their misdiagnosis. Hosipital also fail to do proper tests.This was noted by one of the best LA hospital in the world.

Please dont use PIH doctor Yoon and Jackie dont care about you or anyone else. they act like its a pain to serve you I had to pull teeth to convince Dr Yoon and Jackie to get xrays on my issue. Per Dr, Yoon find another doctor he is retiring. 3 days later to See Dr Patel. 7 mins visit for him to tell me they took alot of xrays yet but not on my knee. He did not even look any my physical problem just told me it would subside. Nothing for inflammation. Very little concern. I tried to show him my knees he acted as if he did not have time to look or listen to all my issues. On 7/10/19 I had to call for IB800 and make an appointment with Dr Patel 7/12/19 in Los Alamitos. THIS WAS A JOKE OF A VISIT. 7 mins again, only for be refused Xrays or an MRI on my knee which has the size of a golf ball, per Dr Patel its water in the knee. He touch the knee for heat which there was none moved the leg up and down only to hurt me as I told him it did. After 6 wks Dr Patel decide I should be on IB800 3 times a day for a month and than we may order the MRI. Im like what now 6 wks later you are prescribing and inflammation after I requested it 3 days ago. I asked for an xray or MRI he refused than decided ok. this is at 3:30pm last xray Los Alamitos will do is at 4:30. I checked before makeing the appointment at Los Alamitos. Why is the doctor having me come back on Monday 7/15/19 to take the Xray in bellflower . I am already at Los Alamitos. I left disappointed. Call spoke to his nurse asking her to ask Dr Patel If I could have the MRI and I would pay in cash. Per Dr Patel nurse he will order one WHEN IT IS A MEDICAL ISSUE. First the XRAY AN XRAY WILL NOT SHOW SOFT TISSUE. So why an xray to charge the insurance more. OH THAT'S right per Dr. Patel the insurance company will not allow an MRI TIL AFTER 2 MONTHS no matter what they tell you, the insurance company tells me different I have been in pain and have suffered because of these 2 doctor ,,,,one that let me know he did not care he was retiring and Dr Patel to waste my time and money for nothing but BS from him... All I see is Dr Patel is tring to make more money than he deserves for my pain and suffering. I will seek a professional and speak to the insurrance to see an ortho specialist Good by PIH tHIS IS THE 3RD TIME YOU HAVE USED POOR PRACTICE. Please think twice before going to PIH we are not cattle or animals Be your own Doctor for PIH has Practitioner who practice what they learn, does not mean they are always right ...As I an up again with pain from knee to foot. Shame on you both Dr Yoon and Dr Patel I had to post a star to complete this post. PIH deserves NO STARS
