Preventive Medicine Doctors - Bakersfield, CA

"Well worth the extra money for seeing Dr. Heidrick as a MDVIP physician. He and his staff are very attentive to my health care needs. Very knowledgeable and often knows more than a specialist. He has been my primary doctor for many years and is able to conduct many medical procedures in his office."

"As my new PCP, I have met with Dr. Sanchez three times. She is easy to understand. She takes time to explain things to you in a way that one can understand. She doesn't push her recommendations onto to you, but lets you get the needed background to help you make informed decisions. Already I have learned a lot from Dr. Sanchez. Another thing I like, is that she is not a pill pusher and carefully weighs the pros and cons for you of medications. Appointments were actually met ahead of time."

"I would advise you not to go to this dr office if you have serious concerns, or need quick answers. I've gotten very little answers from my first visit 2 months ago. Concerning the lump near my armpit, they said since my ultrasound came back normal, and if it doesn't hurt, they'll just keep an eye one it. I had told them I wasn't comfortable with that given my family history of lymphoma, and wanted to see what else we could do. They said we could do a CT scan and they would refer me out. I never got a call for a CT scan. I called Premier Family Health for an update on 5/13/22, and they said the nurse practitioner never put in the referral for my CT scan. While I had them on the phone, I thought I would ask for an update on my food allergy test (because they had told me that those results take longer), they informed me that they actually didn't draw blood for that. I was under the impression that they did, since the nurse practitioner told me they were going to draw blood for that during my other labs. I also let them know the dermatologist they referred me to never called me as well. They advised me to call them. So I did, twice, and still haven't heard back. Please save your time and money, and go somewhere else! "

"Dr. Cooperman has been great for our family. Friendly, professional and listens to what ours concerns and when treatment is necessary, describes in detail what available options are. "

"Dr. Cho and Industrial Medical Group are unprofessional, unethical, and willingly break the law. While taking a physical for a new job, Dr. Cho took notice of the fact that I have bipolar. This disorder has no bearing on my job performance; however, he required a letter from my psychiatrist, stating that I was able to perform the job. A clear violation of my rights under ADA! Additionally, Dr. Cho requested I see an orthopedist due to a knee surgery from 2015, which is unreasonable expectation, that creates a financial burden, as well as costing more time away from my new job. He cost me more than a week’s worth of pay, negatively effecting my livelihood and my job. If you have had similar experiences with Industrial Medical Group report them to the California Medical Board: https://www.dca.ca.gov/consumers/complaints/medbd.shtml And the Better Business Bureau: https://www.bbb.org/ If we don’t report them nothing will change!
