They did it for me
by Roch
I have been battling a weight problem all my life. I have tried it all. My girl-friend referred to me to Dr. Di Mello who diagnosed me when a thyroid problem. Why this problem was missed still baffles me. But I am glad I now know what the problem was ( plus my bad eating habits) I know also see Dr. Gisler for my GYN care. She started me on the Cleanse diet. Although I first fought it tooth and nail, I finally took the plunge and have now lost about 100 pounds. WOW. That is half of me. i feel fantastic and greatful to these amazing doctors
- Pros: Compassionate people
- Cons: They bill insurance out of network. Does Any doc ever bill?

TRULY TRUSTED AND UNIQUE PLACE
by JuliaButler
AKASHA Center for Integrative Medicine is a completely unique practice that offers the highest quality of medical care, individual approach to every patient and warm and caring staff. It integrates Eastern and Western medicine in the most harmoneous way. I am Akasha's patient for Bio Identical Hormone replacement. I drive from the valley all the way to Santa Monica because in my experience there is no better place for any kind of health problems, longevity expertise as well as preventative medicine! For me it's the most trusted place.
- Pros: Competency, wholistic individual approach, soulful staff
- Cons: none

Finally......
by victor64
A clinic where physicians see themselves as healers, front office staff understand the meaning of being scared about one's illness and the operations director (amazing woman) will do anything to get you properly and timely reimbursed. Their idea of getting a billig person to help you file your claims made it possible for me to pay them up-front. Not a bad deal considering that the doctor spent one hour and 45 minutes with during my initial interview. He then spent an hour for the susequent follow up. Having been a patient at Kaiser for over a decade and used to their stardant 5 minute visit, I initially thought the doctor were just being nice to me because I was facing cancer. Then I sent my neighbors and 2 familty members to them who reported the same experience. Thedoctor's East Asian backgrond ( He is from India) added a new touch and very effective approach to my treatment. Obama should include the Akashe Center as a model for patient-centered-less-is-more approach to medicine. My only complaint... Parking. So leave enough time to park.
- Pros: Healing place, amazing physicians, all under one roof approach
- Cons: parking and cost
