The Best 12 MEDICAL SERVICES near Chico, CA (Part 3)

Jora EmeryMeeds Amazing clinic, Megan Johnson is one of the best doctors Ive taken my mom into. Shes professional, warm and so understanding with my moms situation/condition. Great front desk staff as well, I honestly have nothing but great things to say about this clinic. Thank you Dr. Johnson, you very much appreciated.

Jessica Arambula Apmpla is whats wrong with the medical field. There Ma do not know how to properly take blood pressure. There drs are late, i dont understand how you can chronicly be an hour late in the mornings witch makes u late for everybody for the day, no respect for their patients. And they will except dutys and then break them when ever they feel like, with by law i cant do that even tho they have been. Miliorn abruptly stoped medication she had been perscribing for over a year. Non narcotic. Its a medication that alows me to have a life and function but now after anlost 2 years shes no longer perscribing it stoped abruptly and wouldnt even provided a taper per the fda warning to never abruptly stop the medication it is unsafe to do. Seems like dangerous behavior from drs. Im suprized they dont have more malpractise law suits

yasa sfeh Dr. Alicia Wenberg is the best doctor in the whole country not only in the town. I moved to VA and she still able to help me and care about my medical situation. She is good listener to the patient and will do her best to help the patient. I loved her very much and hope all doctors will be like her so helpful and kind. The front desk are amazing people, there is no words can explain how nice they are and they will do the best for you.

L I Worst most unprofessional service OF MY LIFE. Had spent years being tossed around to different doctors and nurse practitioners being put on different birth controls to manage my horrible period symptoms. (Never actually trying to figure out what was wrong). They decided to put in an IUD and after one insertion did not work I was seen by Dr. Wenberg who FORCED the IUD in. After a year (was studying abroad) I went in because I had never felt the IUD string. Turns out I have a uterine anomaly (uterus didelphys) that I was not aware of and she had torn the IUD through my uterine lining upon insertion and the IUD was floating around in my abdomen. Given the situation you would think that she would be rushing to make things right and figure out what had happened to the IUD, but it took over a month of me consistently calling to try to get an appointment to schedule having the IUD found and removed and nothing from their end. I eventually called ordering them to switch me to another doctor who would take more attentive care to my case. Dr. Shwabe (now retired) successfully removed the IUD. Now a couple of years later I have been seen by a specialist in SF who has FINALLY given me a diagnosis after close to 15 YEARS of failed medical practice here in Chico where I received a ultrasound guided IUD insertion to help manage my endometriosis and dysmenorrhea. They were able to do this after 1 online call and 2 in person visits. You would think that after multiple failed attempts a DOCTOR would maybe think something was wrong or maybe some further tests could be run? Looking back, if I had fully understood the scope of the situation (was only 18 at the time) I would have sued for malpractice. The doctors in Chico will only help you if you are pregnant or trying to get pregnant, otherwise they really don’t care.

Emma Frankenfield Doctor Furst is a great listener and very patient. He asks great questions to make sure he fully understands your condition. He is never rushed and gives you all the time that you need. I really appreciate Dr Furst.

deborah schowalter This doc is a good communicator and the staff is excellent as well. I choose him based on what Id heard about him in the community and because his father is an excellent doctor here, serving CSU Chico for a very long time. So Bryan has excellent training, knows the local doctors, has good resources and is also a person whom I immediately trusted. He doesnt give out some types of medications, has a mindset to get people healed and not be a pill dispensing service. If you can get in, let him be your primary care doc. They have a Sunday walk-in clinic too!

Katelyn Scheurer My daughter needed her 4 yr old shots and we dont have great insurance so we decided to come here. The sweet gal upfront made my daughter super excited about her shots by giving her stickers, let her pick out from tons of choices of kids bandaids. It made her so happy! We then met the Dr. He was so personable and made my daughter also feel so comfortable and described so well what he was doing to help her ease into the shot process. Such a great experience. Thanks so much

Delannya Rose Sarah was so helpful I was in and out she was such a great help I appreciate that.

Ginger Darcy Ive been with Dr. McDermott for years now and can say hes a wonderful provider. I feel comfortable speaking with him and sharing my stressors and issues. I myself work in the mental health field and it takes its toll; he empathizes and understands and provides support without judgement. I never feel rushed and have enough time without it feeling like hes trying to push too much (Im not a huge talker.) Im thankful for him.

Kristen Stevenson After speaking to the staff on the phone for weeks they said they were unable to confirm my insurance but instead of letting me know they just moved on called them every week and they still couldnt figure it out. After I finally was put on the schedule they called me back 15 minutes later to tell me the doctor didnt want to take my case and had no explanation other than he didnt want to do it, when he had no information on why I was going and why. It would have been nice to know that 6 weeks earlier when I have been trying and unsuccessfully get ahold of them. Trash place.

Sheila Olson They put my 88 year old mother who has a broken hip in a room sitting in a wheelchair. Her leg and back is hurting and she needs to use a restroom. It has been an hour and not one person has checked on her. At 40 minutes I asked for help. Still no one!

Shane Sanders I broke tibia and fibula and was air lifted too enloe. They did surgery the following day as not enough surgeons were available. I never saw the surgeon that operated on me. And in the follow up appointments always saw a different person. Always a physician assistant never a real doctor. I’ve been having nothing but complications and finally got a second opinion doctor through work comp which is a chore. Enloe messed up my leg and I have no feeling in my foot. I’ll see how it goes but n next few months but I expect too see them in court someday if it isn’t better. Worst experience ever in a doctor office.

TRICIA M My boys have never had as great as care as they did with Dr Stanley but when he left we had no choice but to switch providers. Dr Asarian was amazing and then he left. We were just told that our youngest now needs to seek new care because he is an adult (at 16 years old) while our middle son was able to seek care there until he was 18 years old and left for college. I felt this was rude and inconsiderate. We would not recommend this pediatric office to anyone.

Emma Todd We have been patients of Dr. Ahmed for 6 years, since he came to visit us in the hospital the day my son was born. We have consistently had positive visits here, and both of my children have very positive views of visiting the doctor. He always takes the time to tell my children what he is doing during the examinations, and has even paused an appointment for my son to share a lengthy story about magical animals. The appointments can be quick on occasion, but every time I have a serious question or concern Dr. Ahmed has taken the time to listen, answer my questions, and offer ideas and reassurances.

Trisha I had been seeing Dr. Dixon since 2005 and when I reached menopause they told me I only needed to come in once every two years. The last two times I made appointments they told me since I didn’t come in every year (they wouldn’t let me) I was considered a “new patient” but they did see me. This time I was told that they have a “closed practice” and since I hadn’t had an appointment for over two years they couldn’t see me. The receptionist was unfriendly and kind of rude. Not the practice it used to be, that’s for sure.

Rebecca Walden Dr. Dixon and her staff are the best ever. They really care about their patients and go above and beyond to ensure good health and provide great care. I recently had a prescription medication emergency, which Dr. Dixon addressed immediately. Dont know what I would do without her. I trust her completely and appreciate everything she has done for me. Thank you Dr. Dixon. You and your staff are the best.

Mona Weil I have been a patient at North Valley Cardiology for a few years now. My Mother who is 95 recommended them to me. I feel very comfortable at this medical practice. Parking is great, front desk treats you with respect and my doctor Katherine Prince is wonderful. She always explains what I need to know carefully and I feel like she is very sincere. My Mother and I are both very happy. I highly recommend this cardiology practice.

Rick Battershell Medical care is good but front check in personnel were very rude and told me to "shut up" . At that point my BP and pulse were quite elevated. This is unacceptable for any I front personnel but especially a cardiologist.

Kenneth Warren My 2nd doctor, 1st one I saw didnt last very long and Dr. Williams, is much too busy to spend any amount of time with you, I waited in a very shaby examination room with a disgusting looking vinyl covered couch that was worn out on the corners with the stuffing showing, obviously a breeding spot for germs or viruses. Seriously, you wouldnt have a piece of furniture looking like that in your house but there it is in a place thats supposed to be sterile? 30 minutes I sat there and several people came in to take things from the drawers, dont know who they were but then Dr. Williams showed and I told him about some of my medical history which apparently didnt interest him very much and 10 minutes later he was gone. I asked him if he had read my past history from Enlow Hospital and he said he had read enough, he was a little interested in my TIA that I had some time ago in 2024 but hasnt followed up in any way. He did renew all my prescriptions which were written at least 20 years ago and gave no indication if he knew what they were for?

Charlotte Caravalho I will be the first one to say that my experiences here have ranged from 0 stars to 4 stars. The place is in need of some updating but I was just in there today and it seemed like they were in progress. There were new floors, video screens, and tools in the patient rooms. The waiting room is still dated but it seems like they are starting with the patient rooms and maybe will do other updates after. My young girl at the front desk was really sweet. I have worked with some of the other ladies that have been there for years and they aren’t always happy to assist but realistically they put up with a lot I’m sure. Dr Williams had good bedside manner, probably the best I’ve had here at the visit today. One of the few places in Chico that does walk-in. Ample parking and I like that they can do all the tests on site.

Davis Gabrielle (Brie) I have been going here for my prenatal appointments for about 5 months and have enjoyed every experience with the staff. They are all very kind and helpful. The ladies at the front desk are so sweet and make it really enjoyable to schedule appointments and check out. Even before I started coming here, when I called about making an appointment with a provider, they were all very kind to work with!

Kirsten Horrible waste of time, rescheduled me for months out due to the doctors schedule. The old lady at the front desk is absolutely incapable of doing her job. Left me at the desk to answer the phone and chit chat for 3-4 minutes then told me I was late and took up too much time so they had to reschedule me for 3 months out again! I have cysts that need removed urgently and they think its good practice to make new patients wait months for access to the provider. Absolutely unprofessional. She should just retire already and get someone whos actually trained to do the job. Making patients suffer is inexcusable.

Sean dent The rooms in this place are very small and incredibly warm and stuffy. Dont even think about bringing your baby to any appointments with you Sort of ruined the experience of seeing our babies first ultrasound :/

Brooklyn Vander Eyk I left actually in tears after just getting a IUD consultation. Susan Guevara is actually the worst medical professional I have ever met or interacted with in my life. The receptionists were great and so nice, but truly do not see Susan Guevara.
