Very expensive, poorly managed medical center whos...

Very expensive, poorly managed medical center whose focus is set on money, not their patient's well being.

I displayed numerous symptoms a life threatening condition. It took over 2 months before I was able to receive a proper scan and diagnosis. Through this time, I would be charged several hundred dollars for a simple 15 minute appointment with my doctor. Finally, my neurologist prescribes a very expensive medication (~$100 per 2 weeks).

At this point, I become fed up and go to Kaiser for a different neurologist. At Kaiser, they point out that I was prescribed one of the most expensive medications on the market and that UC Irvine appeared to be paid to promote this medication. Kaiser replaces my prescription with one nearly 1/10th the cost. Long story short, never come to UC Irvine... in the best interest if your own well-being and your wallet...
