Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Katz took care of my husband after a fall. He was like the MD's of the past. He called the night of the fall 11:00 to make sure the tests he ordered showed no brain damage. He explained to a very frightened family that all was well. Thank you Dr. Katz

So Helpful
I am very grateful for Dr. Katz. I had an eye infection and was leaving on a trip and could't get an appointment with my GP so went to Malibu Urgent Care. He was so kind and patient - and helpful! Spent a lot of time determining if my problem was due to allergy or infection - gave me a prescription that almost immediately relieved the problem. And the office called the next day to check on me. I am most appreciative. He was professional, knowledgeable, helpful.

Dr. Katz is an excellent and caring physician
I went to Urgent Care in Malibu after being attacked and bitten by a dog. I was out walking innocently on Malibu Road with my daughter. The dog belonged to a homeless man in an old truck. It was tied up on a long rope under the truck and came after. I was very fortunate to be cared for by Dr. Katz and his wonderful staff. He was thorough in checking out all possible reactions to the bites. He was kind and friendly. He made this experience more tolerable to be sure. I was carefully cleaned up by his tech Martha and given a tetanus shot plus a prescription for an anti biotic was immediately called into my drug store. I am very impressed by Dr. Katz and happy about the wonderful and heartfelt care I received from him and his excellent staff!!
