This review pertains to Stanfords Palliative care division and one particular physician there Grant Smith.
I would like to inform you of the content of a video appointment I had with Grant Smith after I requested a referral to palliative care to discuss the problematic symptoms I have following a diagnoses then treatment for prostate cancer in early to mid 2021.
As a sideline, I am acutely aware of the way authentic and high quality physicians handle patient interactions from experience over 70 years. My father was a beloved physician, public health officer and founded Redwood Medical in Redwood

I am new to stanford and its my worst decision I have ever made. For a regular blood work they charge me 3000 and a online chate with doctor cost me 400 and a tdap vaccine charge me 800. Even with insurance i need to pay for a 1800 are you kidding me. How could a routine check up cost that much.They are just a big scam. I will ask everyone to stay away from this crazy company.

ANNA LEDERMAN IS A TOTAL NIGHTMARE!!!!!!!!
She misdiagnosed me with Syphilis. Extremely traumatic experience thinking I had Syphillis for two weeks until I went to another clinic that informed me that her diagnosis was incorrect and based off a test that is NOT confirmatory. I also had to pay out of pocket to visit this clinic which was awful. When I spoke to Anna Lederman following this and told her about her diagnosis being wrong and based off a test that's not confirmatory... she apologized and offered to PAY ME. BEYOND UNPROFESSIONAL. UNUSUAL. STRANGE!!!!!!!!!!
Once I finally took

I used to be a patient at stanford when I was a child until my late teens .I hoped one day to work for stanford because the patient care then was amazing,now its all about finances and the EHR system that run everything .I also worked for stanford /contract position and could not believe the things I seen and the way coworkers behaved and treated patients which is why I left the organization.I was able to see both worlds and hope one day things will get better in patient care.

If I die of cancer, the primary care doctors who saw me are liable!
At my annual physical, I complained about discomfort at a certain spot. The doctor, as usual, laughs it off, and says, nothing to worry about.
A few months passed, and she went on maternity leave (AGAIN). Meanwhile, my condition worsens. I asked to see another doctor. Instead of the common sense thing to refer me to the specialist/department that anyone with common sense would think of, this other doctor ordered some blood tests. When the results came back normal, she insisted on referring me for an endoscopy of another part

Dr in Stanford love video cheats, visit but if you wish to see specialist or demand test they are dragging it They will request you to have additional meaning. When they finally have ok to you go to stomach , therapy specialist you are not able to make appointments. They have a a new Stanford medical center San Jose, Redwood City, Menlo Park . They are new building with great expensive design but if you looking for excellent treatments and care of patients you will realize that is not top priority. The session with dr is time for 15 minutes and you can only present two issue - I believe charge

First of all, I love my doctor and hence I stay with SHC for soooo long. However, the billing is RIDICULOUS!!!!!!
I almost fall off out the chair. $700+ billing rate (after ins is $400ish) for a 30 mins video chat on follow up meeting.
Please keep in mind... it is not like i broke a leg, coughing blood or dying. It was a routine lab follow up w a dr.
I didn't even get a temperature or weight check. This is outrageous. With this rate, my wallet is going talk some sense to emotional side. (give up your dr.. give her up.....). I really need to find another care.

I've been waiting for one (full (1!) hour on the phone to talk to the primacy care physician clinic, and I'm still on hold. The doctors are wonderful, and obviously this is not their fault. But this is unacceptable. Particularly since, in a year of crisis, Stanford's net assets increased $2.0 billion, in 2020, to $47.2 billion. This includes the university, Stanford Health Care and LP Children's Hospital.

The Care in healthcare doesn't exist at Stanford. Doctors and nurse staff delay scheduled appointments by an hour, prescribe wrong diagnostic imaging, don't apologize for those mistakes. I had terrible experience with them.
Worse than Kaiser or at least as poor patient treatment as Kaiser.
Their diagnosis and patient handling has such a poor reputation that my gynecologist also advised me not to visit doctors at Stanford for gynecologist matters.

I don't usually write reviews. But out of good conscience I really feel like I have to this time.
Let me start off by saying I really like my doctors. They're intelligent, decisive, and really great in general. Hats off. It's unfortunate they have to work within such a dysfunctional system.
Stanford is a money hungry machine. They are totally shameless about the amount they charge. Yet with all that funding they can't seem to get their ducks in order.
Scheduling is a nightmare. Especially if you need a referral to see a specialist. I don't understand why they have

I don't often write reviews, especially negative ones (this is only my first negative review in 5 years on Yelp), but my experience here was so upsetting I think it merits sharing.
I do not recommend this office to anyone who takes a prescription. I had a prescription I needed refilled. When I went in for my annual exam the doctor told me that all I needed to do was have my pharmacy send a request. I automatically knew it wasn't going to be that easy. After the request was submitted from the pharmacy nothing was done at the doctor's office end. I called to find out what was going

I've been going to this practice for 5+ years now and have never been disappointed. The staff is caring, and the doctors take their time to answer your questions. My own ob/gyn, Dr. Prabakar, is stellar. Even though she was on vacation when I had my baby, she called both myself and the doctor on duty at the hospital to make sure everything was going well. You are treated as a person, not just a patient! Highly recommend.

I am a living liver donor and donated on 2/16/21 to a family member. The nurses who took care of me were so kind. My favorite 7pm-7am nurse was Nikita. She was so sweet, kind, patient and concerned about my comfort. Karl was my 7am-7pm nurse and she was just the same as Nikita. I'm glad these ladies ladies were there to care for me. Thank you Karly

Such blatant disregard and dismissal of all my symptoms and pain. Not only did the doctor ignore everything I came in for, they tested me for stuff I didn't need and said I was "too young" to be dealing with female problems. After this horrible experience, including denying my request of an ultrasound, I went to a different doctor. This other doctor I went to (not at Stanford Health) was very helpful, did an ultrasound on me, and found the cause of my pain. Good thing I went to another doctor because Stanford Health just ignored all my problems.

I called them several times for an appt. Each time I was told that a Dr would get back to me. After just starting my 2nd trimester I thought it was pretty important to switch Dr's ASAP. I kept getting the pushback for over 3 weeks and now its been about 5 weeks. They could have at least been up front to tell me that they were not able to take me in. That was really rude and a waste of my time

Doctor was applying assumptions to diagnose me even after I told her I have never had those experiences or symptoms. Not very good at listening and just seem to want to get you out of there. Reminded me of Mr. Porter from "13 Reasons Why". One extra star for speedy service although it was bad service.

The receptionists are the best part of this place. Unlike other people, I actually had an easy time making appointments and communicating with these ladies. Thank you, one star for them.
Once you pass the reception desk is where things get scary. This is my first prenatal visit and my first time being pregnant, so naturally I'm nervous and excited and overwhelmed. The nurse comes in and hands me a bunch of papers, and starts blurrting out a bunch of dates and deadlines for tests, at the same time she's typing in the computer and asking me questions about my health.

This review is in regards to Dr. Blumenstock. I had my laparoscopic surgery done by him on 3/31 and on 4/13 I went in to find out the details of how it went. He spent 45 minutes telling me about the surgery of a different(and much worse off) patient!!! Then he gave me part of her medical files. All the while I was thinking these were the horrid details of my own surgery. It wasnt until several cries and a day later that I looked more closely at the pictures and realized they had someone elses name on them. He had operated on me AND had my file and yet somehow still mistook me for someone else.
