😠 The most brief derm consultation physically possible, less than 5 minutes. Doc didn't even walk a foot away from the door he entered. Luckily I was presumed fine so quick was not an issue with me. Front desk said my insurance will cover islt. She double checked. All good, I left. A month later, a...

😠 If I could give them no stars I would. Tried to rent a place from them. Super unresponsive. Don't pick up the phone during business hours. Voicemail box full or when it's not they take weeks to reply. I would hate to be a tenant with them and as a former landlord of 2 properties I would not hire th...

😠 The absolute WORST service I have ever received. I’ve worked in service for a long time and I have never been spoken to the way I have been here. The manager, Mires, is very rude and disrespectful.

😠 Worst doctor visit I have ever had. Dr. William Meller had no manners, was arrogant and condescending throughout the consultation.

😠 I don't like writing bad reviews. But when it comes to Dr's taking extra money from ppl who are on Medi-Cal or Cel-Cal for a coverage that they say is not covered, look into it with Medi-Cal. I did and they wanted to charge me for extractions that are not covered according to them. Then when I had...

Costa Terraza Restaurant & Tapas Bar
Mexican restaurant
😠 The two older male employees displayed an astonishing level of rudeness. Despite seating us, they proceeded to consistently ignore our presence, merely glancing at us before walking away. Their clear disinterest in assisting us left us baffled. The service quality was undeniably abysmal. The sole re...

🫤 Inexperienced property rental company. They hound you with tens of letters per month, did an ATROCIOUS job at "renovating" the property (we were the first people to move in after the renovation). Tiny parking lot with NOWHERE to park, very low quality furniture and appliances, even though it's "full...

Jackson Medical Group
Medical clinic
😠 Well, I did not have a great experience with the Jackson Medical Group. Nancy Warner and Dr. Jackson were less than helpful before I discovered I had breast cancer. I knew my medical history (mom took DES and I was on hormones from the OBGYN), and all I asked to take was a needed hormone blood tes...

🫤 BEWARE OF THE DEPOSIT. NO MATTER HOW WELL YOU CLEAN, YOU MAY NOT GET IT BACK. WARNING! If you do, take pictures! Upon moving my daughter out of her apartment, I was given the option to fully clean the apartment myself, or pay an extravagant amount for housekeeping to do it for me. I chose to spend t...

🫤 I met Dr Goyal when I was admitted for atrial flutter. He treated me well and it resolved without complications after an atrial ablation. On both visits at his office, the staff was quite rude and actually insulting, and I am transferring my care --not because I the doctor was bad, or lacked empath...

Santa Barbara County Public Health: Franklin Health Care Center
Public health department
😠 This is the worst OBGYN facility and staff within hundreds of miles. A nurse “Holly” at this facility treated me horribly during a very stressful time as a soon-to-be mother after I found out I was pregnant. I didn’t have support from my partner with the pregnancy and this caused me a ton of stress...

😠 Terrible experience living here for a year. Premium price for subpar place, and landlord doesn't care about anything except his profit. Very noisy due to thin walls and terrible windows.
