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.

My "PCP" for over a year and never even met him. Always had to meet with the NP instead. They never follow up, never refill prescriptions. The worst.

THE WORST CLINIC I EVER BEEN AT. THE RECEPTIONIST LARISSA DIDN'T FORWARD INFORMATION ANBOUT MY HEALTH CONDITIONS INCLUDIND SEIZURES AND MADE ME WAIT 6 MONTHS FOR AT THE END TALKING WITH THE DOCTOR AND HE NEVER KNEW THAT I EVEN TRIED TO REACH HIM; I START HAVING CONTACT WITH SUSAN WHICH IS THE SUPERVISOR OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, AS PRIMARY DOCTOR, I NEEDED A REFERRAL FOR A SLEEPING STUDY I NEEDED AND SUSAN SENT ME THE WRONG REFERAL, SHARING INFORMATION OF OTHER PATIENT BY MISTAKE. ME LETTING HER KNOW AND ME NEEDING MY ACTUAL REFERAL TO PROCEED WITH MY SLEEPING APPOINTMENT... LONG STORY SHORT IS BEEN 2 WEEKS AND I STILL CQANNOT GET MY REFERRAL YET, SUSAN COMMENTING THAT NOW THE SYSTEM OF PIH DOESNT WORK, WHEN SHE TOLD ME BEFORE THAT SHE COULD DO A HANDWRITTIN ONE... HALF MONTH AND NOTHING, TODAY SHE CALLED MY LITERALLY SHOUTING AT ME (ALL RECORDED) REPEASTING EVERYTNG I JUST WROTE ALL OVER AGAIN WITH CERO EMPATHY OR SERVICIAL ATTITUDE. THIS IS NOT A FAVOR, IS A JOB AND IS THE HEALTH OF HUMANS YOU'RE TREATING. S A D.

I get that Doctor Silao is busy but what's the point of having him as primary doctor when he doesn't even have time to meet me? I felt really sick so I called him multiple times to see him but he said he is fully booked. I even went to ER so that make sure I will be ALIVE until I see him. ER doctor told me I have to see Cardiologist ASAP. So i begged Doctor Silao to approve any cariologist so that I can get treated or diagnosed but they were freaking keep on saying I need to come in to their hos

Los Angeles, CA – Dec 14, 2018

The Dr. was very polite and knowledgeable. But apparently also very incompetent. After seeing him for a general physical and to have my asthma prescription renewed. It's now been 3 days and my pharmacy still hasn't heard anything from his office. And trying to get a hold of him is impossible. No call backs, never available when you call. Staff isn't helpful besides shifting blame. Keep looking for a more professional.

Scheduled an appointment for 7/11 three weeks in advance, showed up 10 min. Early for appt and the nurse that was working said the PA my husband was scheduled to see called out. We were given no prior notification and the nurse wouldn't even give gauze for my husband's hand so all in all wasted gas and time because this business was SO unprofessional!!!!!!

Upset patient in Chino, CA – Jul 11, 2016
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Silao?
He listens to my every concerns. Dr. Silao, never hesitate to help me to understand the problem I'm having. I was so upset when Dr. Patawarran left. Dr. Patawarran, had promise me he would find me a Dr. close to how he is. I must say Dr. Dr P, did a great job, in finding Dr Michael A. Silao! I'm very happy to have him as my doctor.
