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.

Fantastic Professional
Dr. Clayman is outstanding. He explained everything in clear terms, answered all questions, and has an outstanding staff. The UCI Urology Group expedited my appointment date, and Dr. Clayman was very personable and caring. I’m vey impressed by everyone, including Dr. Clayman, at UCI Urology.

Dr Clayman and his intern were outstanding. Even provided a bit off humor for me by setting up appointment suggestion for two years from now. I was very amused and pleased that they felt I'd be still alive!

I would like to add that from the first time I came to UCI, {staffs name removed} have been extremely helpful with all my needs. Nurse {staff name removed} had been very proactive with relaying all messages to me and also giving my messages to Doctors Ralph Clayman and {staff name removed}. I would like to emphasize my gratitude and appreciation to these two nurses who went above and beyond the call of duty. I recommend they be given the recognitions they deserve. UCI is lucky to have employees like Nurse {staff name removed}

Dr. Clayman and his staff were extremely generous in their time. Didn't feel, didn't make me feel that the visit was rushed in any way. They answered all my questions and Dr. Clayman went out of his way to help me on the things that I can help myself with with regard to preventing kidney stones in the future. Yeah, excellent medical care from UCI and Dr. Clayman and his staff. Thank you.

Grand Master
Dr. Clayman was referred to me by my medical family. Extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and explained procedures in a way I could easily understand. After reviewing my test, ordered additional tests so he could get a better idea of my problem, especially since I only have one kidney. I was very impressed with Dr. Clayman’s bed-side manner. He has such a warm personality; it’s like I had known him forever. Dr. Clayman comes highly recommended by me.

Adam was wonderful; explaining things, professional, and caring. I was impressed with the Fellowship Doctor. He had great skills; concerned with my care, asking important history questions, and will do well in practice. Dr. Clayman held up to his name: Grand Master! He was very warm and caring. Thoroughly explained information in words I could understand. Additional tests were ordered. So happy with the UCI team and look forward to coming back for test results and any other procedures, if necessary.

Outstanding skills
Dr Clayman is a legend. We almost got a surgery from another urologist that would have been too risky. He saved my husband's kidney 16 years ago. Two other urologists gave him no chance. If you are debating who to choose dr Clayman is the right choice. In addition he has great bed side manners.Given that health is no#1 you can't afford to risk not seeing him for treatment. We are privileged to have met him.

Thank you for giving me the chance to give you feedback. I found everybody that I had contact with on my visit yesterday with Dr. Clayman and the week earlier for a CT scan to be exceedingly polite, efficient, and professional. Most of all I am honored to be able to see Dr. Clayman. I am perfectly confident that I have no doubt in his ability to give me the very best care and I'm very, truly grateful for the opportunity to have him as a provider and I thank you for this call.
