Sansum Clinic Pueblo Multi-Specialty Clinic - Santa Barbara (CA)

4 /5 bob pugh: Same as above gentleman expressed- just got my one year wellness visit set at over a year! Doctors are great at Sansum but wait is issue. Finally today I called & found one opening in March. Then asked department to let me do my bloodwork now. They called back in 10 minutes & said blood work is set so I can do & results will be sent to me in one day& I can see if any issues. Best thing going for Sansum is “My Chart” it’s not docs fault that they are swamped ! Hopefully new owners can fix very soon!

5 /5 Toshiko C: I instantly felt that Dr. Pap was interested in my wellbeing. Loved her warm approach so much that I was glad I had chosen this clinic. The young female nurse practitioner as well as the front office lady were efficient and cheerful just like Dr. Pap.

1 /5 Papa Foreman: I have never had a good experience at Sansum. You basically are passed around from one specialist to another who do very little and it takes months to get an appointment—even when you are already in the system and have seen a doctor. It’s a factory system for profit. If you want to see a phycologist who falls asleep while your spilling your guts, if want a Podiatrist to tell you there’s nothing wrong with your big toe two days before the nail falls off, if you want to be misdiagnosed and see your medical records filled with misinformation, then by all means . . . The staff making appointments don’t know what they’re doing. The entire system is incompetent and is designed to charge your insurance as much as possible for as little care as possible for as long as possible. The only reason I ever went there was because my insurance didn’t allow me to go elsewhere. Up to you . . . Buyer beware!

1 /5 kristin smallwood: Sansum in general is one of the worst medical resources I’ve ever experienced. Last year you had to wait 8 months for a physical check up with your primary care doctor. Now it’s a year. I can understand a month or so but not more than that. A year wait means you should probably just stop practicing medicine and retire. I don’t know what the problem is with this clinic. There seem to be plenty of doctors living in Santa Barbara. Are you really that understaffed? Or do all your doctors only work two days a week? The fact that they also close their help line at like noon on Fridays is also terrible. Not everyone in Santa Barbara is retired with their lives more than half over.
