Good team of people in 5575. We appreciate their care and attention. Stanford Medicine, like other facilities, across the nation is struggling with long wait times for patient followup. The prolonged time of availability needs to be center on your list of priorities along with the excellent care and follow up process that I have experienced.

Verified SHC Patient
I started describing my symptoms to the doctor and within 30 seconds. He was already suggesting a procedure or without really probing into any more questions. I felt it was very short and felt rushed without being heard. Do not believe that the doctor was interested in narrowing down by probing any further. My pain is not related to my stomach, but he fixated on that and said that we needed to do an endoscopy. He didn’t ask me about previous visits to specialists or anything else. Once he had the thought of what it was a fixated on it and didn’t wanna hear anything.
