Palo Alto Medical Foundation

Dr Kaye is great. He is very knowledgeable, has great bedside manner and is very thorough. He is responsive to questions both at appointments and in between appointments. His staff is always very helpful and friendly and I would highly recommend him as a pediatrician.

It turned great. He’s quick & he answered all my questions. He got me what I needed.

See above. I have had many visits with a number of different doctors. I have had surgery and other procedures at this facility. All were successful.

We would use him again in the future.

I really like him. He is very pleasant and responsive. He is very responsive on line. I chat with him that way frequently. I will continue to see him.

I saw Dr Aigen to treat prostate cancer, in initial stage. He recommended surgery, with the DA Vinchi robot.The surgery was a total disaster. He left all the cancer inside, exposed. What makes it even worse, is that he was not forthcoming with the surgery blunder, and I found out about it 3 months after the fact. Don't ever go to dr Aigen for prostate cancer treatment. It make cost you your life, just like the price I am paying now. He destroyed my life.I will be happy to share more details.

I have already recommended family to Dr. Andrew P. Gutow. Is a really good doctor. I will continue to use him.

Unfortunately for everyone else, she isn't seeing new patients.

She is personable and attentive. I would use her again.

They are good most of the times but sometimes they do the tests that I specifically asked not to do. My doctor ordered a vitamin D and a liver test. I did not want to get those done and told them 3 times before the tests. When my results came back I saw them doing those tests too.

My kids’ primary care is taken care by Dr. Juan Garona. The last time my kids visited their doctor was March this year. Dr. Juan Garona is a good, no nonsense doctor who is very good with the children too.

She is unbelievable. She listens to you. She takes time with you. She returns phone calls. She is very personable.

I've known Dr. Allen since early 1980's. Being a nurse has provided me the opportunity to see his excellent work first hand. As soon as I found out that I would need surgery, I knew Dr. Allen was the surgeon for me. There are other excellent surgeons in his group, but since I've known him the longest and have worked with him the most, I wanted him for my surgeon. I couldn't be happier with the surgery or the outcome. I would highly recommend Dr. Allen if you need a surgeon.

Everything from the first consultation meeting to the last check-up appointment ween smoothly. All my questions were answered and my insurance froms and disabilty forms were all taken care of in a timely manner. The surgery went off without a hitch and my family members were kept in the loop about what was going on and what to expect. The office statt, Antonette, is excellent.

She is excellent. She gives a very clear analysis of what needs to be done. She will go through the options step by step. She gives very sound recommendations and is a delight to work with.

Dr Hoff stripped my membranes at 37 weeks without consulting me first. When he pulled out his fingers, now bloody he asked if I wanted to strip the membranes, a procedure I was not aware of and didn't even know what it entailed. He did not explain and quickly left the room with myself still in shock. 48 hours later my water broke as it usually does after being stripped of the membranes. Dr Hoff came into the room saying "so much for that nights sleep" (oh, I beg your pardon for inconveniencing me with having a baby!)He then after 24 hour of labor tried to talk me into a c-section but failed to give me a good reason as there was no danger to myself nor my baby. I had to cry, scream and only with the nurses convincing him to LET ME push, did he finally say ok to it. 20 minutes later, my son was born with no complications. If you are wanting a c-section and a doctor with a God complex, Dr Hoff is your doctor. He frequently has negative reviews removed from Yelp and even told us that he had been approached by Yelp to do so.

I give him very high recommendation. He does excellent work. He does good patient interaction. Medicare took care of the billing.

She is very organized in her time management, and in her calendar management. We were seen quite timely once we got there, and she replies to our emails promptly.

It was a five star experience and it always is. They are outstanding doctors.

Excellent experience. The staff was very friendly and punctual. Dr PYKA spent time examining my hand; recommended X- ray that was prepared at the clinic. He looked at the X- ray, explained the situation and made the proper recommendation.

The staff is fantastic. The waiting area is always crowded and yet I am called within a few minutes. They accept walk ins as well as appointments and I bypass all the waiting people because I make an appointment. The nurses who do the testing are primarily very nice and friendly and try hard not to cause pain, although they sometimes they are on such auto-pilot that they forget to explain what they are doing and just go about doing it. I get this test done once a year. Where they fail is in the billing. I was billed for an EKG but I never got the test results, when I called the lab, they told me to call the Dr. who said to call the website where the lab results were supposed to appear and they told me to contact the lab. I just gave up.

I was diagnosed with severe aortic stenosis in late 2010 and advised to have my aortic valve replaced "soon". I interviewed several surgeons; Dr. Gaudiani impressed me with his knowledge, ability to communicate, and availability (when I had questions after our consultation, he called me the same evening). Even though I also had some narrowing of my circumflex artery, Dr. Gaudiani strongly suggested only dealing with the stenosis to allow for minimally-invasive surgery -- he said that my cardiologist could stent me if the artery bothered me later. The other surgeon I was considering wanted to do a bypass at the same time as the aortic valve replacement, which would have been a much more aggressive surgery. Dr. Gaudiani provided me with informative printed material and videos, including a statistical analysis of his practice's results over the past 10 years. He advised me to go for a bovine valve rather than a mechanical valve, based on the results showing that the rate of complications of a second surgery when the valve wore out was still better than the long-term effects of warfarin treatment, and that my quality of life would be better without warfarin. I don't remember much about the operation, of course. After surgery, I was visited by Dr. Gaudiani's associates as needed, and they provided follow-up care until I was recovered. I hope never to need Dr. Gaudiani's services again, but if I do, I will be very glad to use them!

lWhen I moved to Florida last year, Dr. Chen recommended that I continue monitoring my health with one of his colleagues here in the area. I did go for one appointment; the man was very nice, but after the appointment I didn't feel the same level of positive confidence that I have with Dr. Chen. I made my subsequent follow-up with Dr. Chen and flew back to California for the appointment. My next follow-up is due in August, and I have my plane tickets now.

I've been seeing her since February of 2012. I like the fact that she is very hands on, she listens and explains and is very caring. It's the first time I've used her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.

I first saw Dr Sukhdeo for a colposcopy following an abnormal pap. I was incredibly anxious about the procedure but he was very reassuring and calming. Because of that positive experience, I chose him to be my primary ob/gyn when I became pregnant shortly thereafter. Dr Sukhdeo was a great ob/gyn during my pregnancy. He was very approachable and informative and was always great about answering all of our first-time-parent questions. His nurse, Terri, is also very friendly and returned my phone calls promptly. We had a scare with some test results early on, and then I went into pre-term labor at 28 weeks and had to be on bed rest -- Dr Sukhdeo was great throughout those scares and always kept us well-informed. His calm and confident nature was very reassuring and it really kept our stress levels as low as could be expected. Happily our baby was born perfectly healthy. :) I would absolutely recommend Dr Sukhdeo to anyone and am planning on continuing to see him as my regular ob/gyn.
