Terrible doctor, thanks to her my father’s health declined significantly.
Worst experience I've ever had with a medical team/office. I kept getting the run around with the admins at the front. My first appointment was rescheduled literally the last minute. I was never seen by a doctor and after requesting a female doctor they scheduled me with a male doctor. For telehealth appointments I signed in 5 minutes before my appointment at 12pm like I was asked and at 12:15pm ended up leaving because I was kept in the waiting room with no word from anyone. I left multiple chat messages to let the doctor know I was waiting but was never seen😠 I do NOT recommend this place.
Dr. Altavas is very knowledgeable and friendly. In terms of skill, she is one of the best doctors at Paradise Valley Hospital.I'm hoping that her office will accept card payments soon. I was caught off guard by the cash only policy. I won't reduce my rating because of this - I don't know if she's the one who's in control of the payment system or someone else is making the cash only decision.
I just had my first appointment with Dr. Altavas. She and her staff are very thorough in examining patients - they are focused on finding out if your ailments are physiological or psychological and will refer you to an appropriate specialist for further care. Dr. Altavas was professional. I just wish that her office would accept credit cards but I believe that it's out of her control.
Dr. Val Atavas is wonderful. She is compassionate, intelligent and professional. I had issues with my mother that involved elder financial abuse, hoarding, mental illness, dementia, and uncontrolled hypertension that led to a series of strokes. Dr. Altavas was able to adjust medications reducing the possibility of continued strokes, referred my mother for further studies with on of San Diego's best neurologist, Roberto Gratianne. I would refer both Dr. Altavas and Dr. Gratianne to everyone!
Just to see the doctor takes a while, the doctor does not follow up with patient. I went in to see the doctor, I had migraines for a few days and the meds they prescribed are not working. Just to get the doctor to change or give new meds she needs to get a message, a message she has not yet received apparently. We have called 3 times, we are told the same thing over and over. We have left 3 messages. Poor service!
Dr. Altavas is the best doctor I ever had the pleasure to come in contact with. I owe my life to her. and I will be forever thankful for knowing her. She is dedicated to her profession and treats every patient like family.
The appointment planner overbooks this doctor. I have been here four times, took off early from work to be there on time and waited over an hour each time.
