UCLA Health Santa Monica Behavioral Health

It can take a long time to schedule an appointment if you're a new patient. The two therapists I met were both great. The psychiatrist though...I guess it's ok if you just need someone to manage your medication, because pills seem to be the only things they are happy to give you.

Disorganized place with constant shuffles of therapists transferring in and out that causes scheduling mayhems - i had a therapist that decided to switch career halfway; another therapist that transferred out the place due to overwhelming sessions; On top of that, the Irritated receptionist whose attitude is very clearly to get you off the phone cannot provide any helpful answers; I would avoid this clusterfudge of a place that seems to eating itself from the inside

It took several weeks to get an appointment for my daughter to see Dr. Josic and less than 24 hours before the appointment, was scheduled, I received a call that the appointment was cancelled. No reason was given. When I called back to reschedule, they did not have any appointments with any doctors for a month. It's totally unacceptable to cancel an appointment with a child the day before they are scheduled to come in and then not be able to reschedule in a reasonable timeframe. It's so disappointing when families cannot receive much needed care through their providers. Clearly UCLA has too many patients and they do not know when it's time to say no.

What a joke. I'd never sought therapy through a medical network like UCLA before, and I wont be again. Look elsewhere.
