The Gary Center Review

VCC does their best to offer the best service every step of the way. Telehealth has complicated things while keeping people safe. I am grateful for Dr. Praciadas? (sp) I had severe sore throat, ear ache, fever, head congestion for many, many weeks. Nothing making sense why it was not going away, while altering my life severely. But, also, I had spent 98% of 2020 dealing with high fevers, unstoppable fatigue, acute confusion, and too much else. My scalp was highly inflamed on a continuous basis. At times my feet, neck, fingers swelled-for a few hours, too.
Never in my life had I experienced anything like any part of 2020. I have been literally hanging in there anxious in nothing making sense why so sick. . 2020 an entire year of hiding from my loved one how scared I have been, while knowing they were worried, too. I also quarantined from the start in not feeling well. Then, I super quarantined in seeing how fast my health was deteriorating. Never, ever, ever, ever did it occur to me that the organic produce I was purchasing and having delivered was not organic, plus, also rigorous toxic. Early 2020, I tried creating account with Vons, Ralphs, Albertsons Delivery--but last step would not allow account creation. Thus, "W" became my grocery store/delivery. I should have called a sibling to create an account for my preferred store--from her computer. Meanwhile, something that simple didn't even enter my mind. My focus was organic produce and deliver.
All my life I have washed well all produce etc, organic, packaged etc, I will never stop doing that. The Ear, throat specialist confirmed extremely serious normal sore throat, ear aches, and he explained that hidden chemicals can severely weaken physical vulnerabilities. He explained the fevers was my system combatting what was abnormal, unwanted in my body. The dermatologist pathologist fully focused on specific, clear and accurate results. His focus "chemicals in produce" prior to harvest.
I am at a loss for words. Even produce can lie to us. I thought we had a law that said vegetables must be organic to be labelled organic and/or have organic stickers. An entire year of near daily feeling so profoundly sick while C19 meaning I was alone-family 100s of miles away. It matters what we don't know. It matters how hard VCC tries to give us their best. Thank you VCC for all you do. You make a tremendous difference in southern California.

This place is the worst. They have you wait five thousand hours for your SCHEDULED appointment. I have been sitting here for an hour and have watch multiple people come in after me and be seen before me. The staff are all RUDE. No one person in the front desk is friendly and if they appear that way it s only because they re being fake! I will definitely not be coming back here and am switching clinics immediately.

Major communication problems here. It takes forever to get through to someone at the actual clinic location. It seems like the automated phone system is designed to make it as hard as possible to speak to a human being at every step of the way.

High doctor turnover rate. Mental health workers are dangerously improperly trained, especially when it comes to trauma. Their knowledge of LGBTQ-related issues is zero. I would avoid at all cost.

REVIEW OF MEDICAL SIDE:
Only come here if you have a lot of time on your hand or are desperate. Me being the later, is why we came.
I tried to make an appointment for my daughter to get her booster shots. Call center stated I could walk in at 10 am Thursday to get immunizations, since she is a patient at this site. I get there at 946, checked in by 1008 (there abouts) and sit to wait. At 1050 I ask what is going on... front desk staff calls back. Reply from nursing staff they cant see us need Dr. appointment!!! Couldn't they have figured this out say 45 minutes ago? Slow staff at front desk and in the back should have had this information together and processed withing 15 minutes.
My daughter is terrified of shots. She was crying the night before. She was anxious and nervous waiting in the waiting room. And now, her emotional distress will continue , because we have to wait to come back a 3rd time (yep out 1st appointment got canceled and they had us walk in, instead of giving us a 2nd appointment) for and week, till she finally gets the immunizations the state requires by law for children to proceed to 7th grade.
On the Tuesday before, I spent 48 minutes on the phone with Sundae trying to get said appointment, and was told I could walk in. And she asked her supervisors, and they gave her the times I could come in. So, not her fault.
When I spoke to the manager, he had no way to find a conclusion to help this from happening again or how to keep his patients from getting misinformed from his own call center.
This is the 2nd time this site has done this to my family.
Be prepared for an hour long waiting room wait and then another hour once in the patient room.
The staff turn over rate is high.
Lack of front desk communication, to nursing staff and viscera can leave you waiting even longer.
Their manager cannot state why there is no cohesion with their call center staff to change this process, as the supervisors for call staff gave us wrong information, not once but twice.
It is mediocre care at best. I have been trying to get a bright side and with this last visit, I just cant find one.

I went to this Dentist for over a year to fix my teeth. Which were is bad condition. I totally go there for your needs. I move to Riverside County and need more work done and I am willing to do the 1 1/2" hour drive one way just to go there. The Dentist are great and I never had any pain.

I love the Gary Center I always recommend them to ppl and my husband has gone and my dad the only thing is they don't really pull wisdom teeth and don't do root canals other than that they do your fillings they do do extractions as long as it is not a risk to you like if it's not on your nerves or a way where it will be hard to extract cause they have pulled my husband's tooth but could not pull mine or my dad's so I understand but I do go back for everything else love love love the dentist wait but there is one I will never ever see I do not like her and she is very very rude so I do understand ppl who have had a bad experience with a dentist there I only see the other dentist I'm so sorry I can't remember her name to let you guys know who it is but if you have a bad experience with one dentist ask to see the other one

Great dentist! Wonderful personnel! Thoughtful and courteous, I have come here for years!

I really got bad experience yesterday in these clinic they broke my teeth and leave the half and said sorry we cant do it and they did for almost and hour already so they advice me go other clinic emergency full it out my teeth ,, it so worst clinic i ever had ,, so i feel nervious because its teeth and bleeding already so i go to other clinic to remove it and im afraid the nextday it become worst.not recommended clinic for me .

Very disappointed with some lady by the name of Karen not sure who she is. She is so unprofessional my mom heard her tell the social worker over the phone that my sister was ridiculous for being at a mental health facility. She had no idea that my mom heard her . I understand she is probably stressed out or overworked but still it's not okay. She chose to be in this field and seems like she has no passion for helping families. I hope the supervisor sees this and looks back at the call as calls should be recorded. I was considering talking to a supervisor but who knows she might be the supervisor. I am a nice person and I don't care how she feels about my family but she needs to know that someone else isn't going to be as nice as I am . She can jeopardize her job if she does this to someone else .

There you will find a boxing gym to exercise and be healthy an economic gym with good treatment a family treatment and coexistence you will meet friends and physically exercised is called boxing club la jabra Cheer up

Welcome to VCC where our goal is to make people think we actually care about you and your needs. Our Drs leave and find better options since they re so overworked here... while continuing to waste your money for quick 5 min phone calls our drs also completely ignore you and LOVE to cut you off and make you feel like the smallest person on the planet.

I had an appointment with Dr. Palacios, she is very kind.

The front office and the dentist and dental tech were welcoming. They were genuinely concerned with my medical problems.
