Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dedicated and genuine in advocating for my mom
He was our third rotating hospitalist at San Francisco St Mary's Hospital and finally the first to hear our concerns, get some clear answers, and advocate for our mom. He is a shining example of why one becomes a doctor, full of empathy and care. We are so grateful for him!

Dr. Bucay is an incredible doctor. The first time I have felt truly listened to and cared for through this entire struggle. I have been fighting with an unknown illness which has been causing me chronic, intense and unrelenting pain for 6 months now. He listened to me, gave me literally every test in the book and provided me with referrals to get further checked by pain management doctors as well as tests to try and discover where my symptoms are coming from. I'm so glad that I found him as a doctor. Einstein is incredibly lucky to have him as a doctor. Compared to my experience at some larger university hospitals in the area, I am thoroughly impressed.

The best doctor ever. I've been a patient of his for the past 2 years, and without a doubt, I don't regret making him my primary physician. He answers all of my questions, makes sure that my medications are sent directly to the pharmacy, and that I leave with any referrals that I may need during my visit; and if I ever have an issue with a medication being covered he offers an alternative or tries to get to the bottom of the issue. 5-star provider, for sure!

Best decision that I’ve ever made in choosing a primary care physician. Dr.Jalife-Bucay has amazing bedside manner, knowledgeable in his craft of medicine yet relatable when explaining diagnoses, treatment plans. He’s helped me maintain a healthy blood pressure, has kept me on track with my A1C among other things. All in all, HE’S AMAZING!!!

One of the best decisions I took for my health was to switch primary care to be seen by Dr. Jalife. Now, I have a controlled blood pressure and my Diabetes finally is at goal. He is an example of intelligence and humbleness, and most importantly, he never looses a smile. Takes time to explain my problems in details. Thanks

Dr Mauricio Jalife Bucay is the best doctor I have ever had. He is very professional and compassionate. For the last few years have been feeling really bad. Got admitted to the hospital multiple times until I meet Dr Jalife and diagnosed me with a very uncommon condition, he referred me to a specialist and since I started my treatment, I feel much better. I am so lucky to have Dr Jalife Bucay as my primary care.
