San Fernando Valley Neurologic Medical Group

I appreciated the physicians’ attention to detail.
I accept responsibility for agreeing to non-​necessary tests. By non-​necessary, I mean that the neurologist identified my issue in about five minutes and explained that it would resolve itself in about a day — it did. The doctor also gave me the option of additional testing should there be an underlying cause and that, obviously, it would be better to identify as soon as possible. As I think most individuals would do, I submitted to the additional testing.
While I do not have a considerable amount of experience with physician offices and insurance billing, I assumed I would be paying something out of pocket. What I DID NOT expect is that when my insurance company requested further information to validate the additional tests before payment, this office refused to provide. Thus, I was on the hook for over $ 800.00 in testing.
When I explained to the billing office that I was unable to pay that full amount, staff told me, «well, we’re running a business here».

Dr. Anderson is one of the best dr’s I’ve seen. He is pleasant, takes his time, and listens to all you have to say. You leave his office feeling better than when walked in. I highly recommend him.

I was referred to this office by my primary Doctor and saw Dr. Andersson. I found the front office to be pleasant and the ease of check-​in was fine too. I was also seen in a timely manner on both visits. Dr. Andersson is a pleasant Doctor, although I did not feel that he took the time to explain things as well as I would have expected, and seemed to brush off a lot of my concerns. When I would ask something for clarification, he would remark that he had «already explained that to me».
After comparing this visit to another Neurologist (whom I saw after) and finding out more information about my condition (as well as the new Neuro reviewing my MRI’s WITH me), I realized I wasn’t that happy with my experience here, overall.
It was definitely not the worst experience with a Doctor’s office, but I am unsure if I will return to see him. Maybe he is not the right fit for me, but possibly for another patient :)
