Cedars-Sinai Medical Group's Online Review Report Card

Experienced, nice MD and nurses!

Today was our first visit to the new Internal Medicine offices for Cedars Sinai.Parking was available with validation.  The entrance of the parking structure is off of Robertson Blvd.  For 1st timers, just keep track of the floor that your are parking as it is, as all new places you go, can be confusing as all floors look the same.The Reception area on the 2nd floor has an open floor plan.  You can walk up directly to the staff, and there are alot of them available to help expedite the number of patients that are coming in.  They have combined the offices from the different buildings into one, so that means more patients will be coming through.  After confirming appointment, basic information and paying co-pay, there is a large waiting area that is comfortable.We were called in less than 10 minutes and were shown to the treatment room.  Nurse was very friendly and accommodating.  The NP that saw me paid attention to the symptoms I was experiencing and ran a battery of tests, as well as blood tests to ensure all was well.Doctors note was provided immediately for the time I was out of work.Very quick and efficient.  I am glad my doctor transferred here and look forward to coming back for future visits.

Convenient location. Easy validated parking. Stream line and friendly service. Everything is marked properly, everyone takes proper precautions. Everything is super clean and professional like it should be and is expected.

First visit here for me with Dr. Violano.  This facility is extremely nice, all of the doctors,  staff and nurses here are wonderful.  I have only had great experiences with Cedars Sinai and I highly recommend them for your internal medicine and gynecology needs!

They scheduled me for 6:40 AM, and ask to arrive 15 minutes earlier, but when I did, I was pushed out of the office till 7AM. Wow! Rude, confusing and unprofessional.Oh, my! And it even got worse! I asked my physician to schedule me a Covid-19 testing. They were not able to help. Useless facility, useless people work there.

Dr. Violano is a joke. Blamed my chronic pain on my pain medication. Really!! Since when does pain medication cause chronic pain??  I didn't even go there for pain medicine. I went there to get my pain issues fixed because news flash I don't want to take pain medication. I would really like to just have no pain. I know why there are so many overdoses by people on opioids. It's because of incompetent doctors like Dr. Violano that won't even try to help us. I hope you go broke doc because you suck.

Had my initial physical appointment scheduled for today at 8:20am. When I scheduled the appointment the nurse was adamant that I arrive on time as Dr.Violano was a stickler for punctuality. I showed up at 8:05 and  was taken back quickly and then I was left to sit for 45 minutes with no explanation. Finally the nurse came back and told me the doctor was running late and would be at least another 15 minutes. So the Dr.Violano who was supposedly a stickler for punctuality wasted an hour of my time. I ended up having to leave since I like most other people don't have the luxury of leaving my clients to sit around for an hour. Totally recommend him if you don't mind waiting for hours on end. If you do mind find a different doctor.
