Joyce Tatelman's Online Review Report Card

I was recommend this doctor to me by my friend. She knew I was looking for a PCP. The staff here are wonderful. I love the energy the front desk has. Doctor Tatelman listened to what my concerns were. Gave me recommendation for other doctors for my issues. Would recommend going to her!

I've been going to Dr. Tatelman for years now and she is fantastic. The reviews are correct, she is extremely thourough, writes every detail down and actually listens, and will bring up things from past visits to make sure it's been resolved. I was in Mexico and needed to be hospitalized. I wrote down everything they put in my body just in case. When I came home, I went straight to her and to my surprise, she was fluent in Spanish as well! She also listens. I was sluggish, tired, and had no energy. She kept hinting at depression, but I told her I would consider that if we could do all the blood tests to make sure there isnt anything else wrong with me. She not only was able to find out what was wrong with me, but we worked on a plan to get my numbers back in range. Also, she asks if I'm sticking to my regimen every follow up.

I have been a patient of Dr Tatelman for three years. She is an incredible doctor, from her bedside manner to her listening skills to her knowledge on health care. She is genuinely non-judgmental. I immediately felt comfortable as her patient. She is very thorough and does not rush the appointment. She did my pap smear and ordered all my blood tests. She took my insurance Anthem Blue Cross PPO and all my care was free as it was preventive care. I did have a copay for some of my blood tests which was due to the lab. I did my blood work at the lab on site which was convenient for me. Dr Tatelman communicated my test results through her online portal. You can communicate with her through the portal which is like email or call the office during business hours and ask about last minute appointments for urgent issues. There is a large parking lot next to the building which is free. Dr Tatelman is the sole provider of her practice which means that you will see only her when you schedule an appointment with the office. This is nice for continuity of care.

Great MD, super friendly staff. Did immigration exam, everyone was very professional and up to date with all the regulations

I saw Dr. Tatleman for immigration medical exam. It was easy to secure the appointment and a breeze to get the exam done. She explained everything I needed to do and her messaging system is pretty efficient if you have any further questions. A big clap for her receptionist Mimi who is not only a super friendly person but her genuity shines through her smile and words. Everytime I called the office, my call was returned within 30 minutes of leaving the voicemail and she tried to squeeze me in at the earliest, given the hard time limit in matters of immigration. She gave me an immunization shot so nicely that I didn't even feel a thing, undoubtedly the most happy and helpful person I've met at a doctor's office. My turn-around time for all reports and sealed results for USCIS was 4 days.They have a LabCorp right in the office so it's easy to get everything done at one place.

I've known Dr. Tatelman for several years both as her colleague and as her patient. She is incredibly caring and knowledgeable with everything related to health. She will take the time to talk to you, get to know you, and help you stay healthy. In addition, she is very responsive to to emails and phone calls. Highly recommend!

I've had a great experience with Dr Tatelman. Having tests and vaccines done at the same location saves some time as well.

Fantastic doctor! Dr. Tatelman is thorough and wonderfully efficient. I have been to countless doctors in the Bay Area, after taking care of my mom who had Parkinson's, for many years. Dr. Tatelman is the best doctor I have experienced here. I have never waited more than five minutes for an appointment. Any lab work needed is right there, so it's an absolute breeze. You get detailed results quickly through her online portal. Given the doctor's typical zero wait times, you might think an appointment would be rushed - not at all. Dr. Tatelman takes her time and goes in depth. I feel completely confident in her high level of care, which is superlative, especially for the Bay Area. Her office is run very well by Nina, who is friendly and efficient. Phone calls are always returned quickly, many times within a half hour. There is not one downside to Dr. Tatelman's practice. I feel so lucky and relieved to have found such a great physician in the Bay Area.

Dr. Tatelman's office is a delight for many reasons:- a) She is an independent physician i.e. she is not employed by Sutter, PAMF, Dignity or Stanford, which makes her clinical care more patient-centered rather than health system centered. Health systems only want to suck your wallet dry. b) Her practice is a one-stop-shop for all annual health screening needs for women of all ages. She does pap-smear and prescribes breast imaging, glucose, cholesterol, and BP tests. c) Before COVID, her practice had a LabCorp, which made blood draw easyd) She prefers to communicate via the EHR messaging system, which is efficient. e) She follows up on the test results and explains the results clearly.f) She has impeccable bed-side manner which is rare in physicians these days. She is very patient-centered in her interaction.The only word of advice for her - include mental health screening as women might be experiencing depression and anxiety during these times.

I've been a patient of Dr. Tatelman's for a year, and I am happy with her thorough, kind and responsive manner. She definitely goes above and beyond- I recently saw some specialists for a different issue, and Dr. Tatelman even took the time to proactively message me once she received the visit notes.
