15 min wait on the phone and the whole place is slow and outdated. Overall experience doesnt make the patient feel confident

I wouldnt even give them a star if that was possible. Besides the wait of 3 hours, Dr. Vargas completely shut me up throughout my whole appointment and when sharing my concerns. Didnt want to hear about any of my symptoms or my diagnosis before the visit. I am aware I have PCOS and told him this, however this was NOT the reason for my visit. I have been monitoring my glucose ever since I found out I was having problems with it during a hospital visit, Dr. Vargas did not even want to see my monitor or check the important measurements or my avg. Even more ABSURD was the fact he told me a 40 mg/dL glucose level could be normal in a full on 22 year old adult and when told my doctors had told me that wasnt normal he gaslight me with Honey, Ive been doing this for 40 years. I have a full name, the honey was passive aggressive (but then again Dr. Vargas was passive aggressive with me and my mom throughout the whole thing as we explained we were worried as diabetes ran in the family and I was already a diagnosed pre-diabetic.) Anything below 70 is absolutely dangerous, doesnt take a genius or a degree to know such thing. However, I gave it the benefit of the doubt and asked 3 different doctors and all said it was absolutely not normal. Even a simple google search could tell you and why. They told me to never go back and the only thing he wanted was money as he scheduled me for an ultrasound and gave me a PCOS diagnosis which I told him I had already but refused to check my glucose, especially as I was telling him that was my main concern and that is why I was referred there. Not only that but then he told me I had anxiety which is also not news to me and I know what low blood sugar feels like compared to anxiety which I told him as Ive fainted from low blood sugar which is how I found out I was struggling with my glucose. Even more absurd is the fact he told me I had not gone to my PCP since May last year when my PCP referred me in October and when told to ask for those he said it doesnt matter. How? If those are the tests I was referred with! An absolute mess and dismissive. Would absolutely tell you to find a doctor that actually cares about you, every one of your symptoms, tests that could help him, and your concerns! Also office is dirty and they like to make money of their patients not address their concerns. Dr. Vargas is ridiculous. After reading so many reviews, he is clearly not caring and wants us to be lab rats. Does not listen to doctors who have referred their patients there, matter of fact says their bloodwork is not right. Shouldnt be a doctor or at least go back to school.
Update: Went to another endocrinologist who was happy to go back on my medical history and other bloodwork, I ended up in the ER at 4AM a week after this appointment from low blood sugar! What a surprise! I now have a dexcom and I am indeed having problems with my sugar skyrocketing and dropping despite my balanced meals.

I have been contemplating should I go back this year since March. The wait time is horrible. The Staff is rude and disrespectful Dr. Gosine will speak down on what ever labs your Dr. does and tell you thats not the one she needs. Basically he doesnt know what hes doing.(Disrespectful) and I know
My PC is a smart Dr. It seems to me she just wants blood drawn in her office. It be the same labs. And dont need an ultrasound you have to go back and forth everything is an appointment. And why you cant have labs drawn while youre there. Separate office visit $$. Im just informing people try to find somewhere else to go. Oh and another thing. When you go in the office
Whatever smell thats burning in there when you leave you will have a headache you will need a shower wash you clothes clean your purse because the smell is so strong it will be in you car and house. I dont think patients should have to be subjected to that
thats her practice but everyone that comes in should not have to smell it.
I will pursue to find another Dr. Enough is Enough!!!!!

This Dr. had to be one of the most unhelpful physicians I have ever dealt with. My primary had done some blood work finding altered levels in my hormones which is why I came to see him. Upon seeing him he found a thyroid was slightly enlarged and asked to do further blood work regarding my hormones understandably so. Waited about a month to hear back for the results as they told me it would take some time. To begin with the dr. Was about 45 min late to the Tele conference. However his staff was VERY quick to call me In the morning to collect payment. Once he finally calls me proceeds to tell me my results, he tells me hormonally I am fine and that everything should be okay. To which I asked well if I am still putting on weight with no explanation and its not my hormones who do I see then? To which he responded hormonally you are fine, so we can just test you again in 3 months. To which I again asked who I can see then to get answers about my unexplained weight gain as I am an overtly active person and cautious eater. To which his answer was lady what do you want me to do? Couldnt even address me by my name which he was holding my records! I followed up about an enlarged thyroid I had, and his answer was some eyes are bigger than others some arms are longer than others. After $180 spent on no answers and disrespect I highly advise you seek another endocrinologist and save your self the money. The only shame is he has a great staff working for him who would definitely thrive with a more caring and knowledgeable doctor.
