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.

Great office!! Great people!!

This Doctor only cares about the money. I have an appointment and still wait for two hours. After 2 hrs in the waiting area, I wait another 30 minutes in the room to see it by a nurse practitioner, when I ask for the doctor I wait another 25 min. Finally, with the doctor he was rude and rush he was talking to me as if I was stupid about my child illness and he was only for 3 min. I try to ask him, but he was in a rush and inpatient, telling me to come back if something changes! Worse experience

Worse Doctor! He only sees newborn babies, the rest of the patients are seeing for nurse practitioners without experience in kids. Moreover, if you ask for him, he will not spend more then 5 minutes with you unless is a new baby or you came from another doctor because he will be asking you about the other doctor's management. Moreover, if you do not have an appointment, you might have to wait 3-4 hours. An on top of all these he will ask you to choose only one health plan because he collects $$

Dr. Laktiney is kin to a miracle. When our grandson was born with complications, he attended him with such care. His easy bedside manner and confident manner put everyone, especially babies, at ease. A truly professional and compassionate caregiver with a long standing career and extensive experience. We wouldn't want anyone else to care for our family. Thank you Dr. Laktiney, for everything.

I don’t think I could ever find a better doctor. So friendly, so caring, spends so much time that all your concerns are gone. If you have a worry on your newborn, he even shows you online what your worried about and what it exactly means. Everything is taken care of. Even if you forget something, you can always call in and get a reply. I love them. Love love love!

Our family loves Dr. Laktineh. I've never met a more carting and attentive pediatrician. Dr. Laktineh took care of my son from the moment he did his newborn exam until his jaundice had subsided 2 weeks later keeping us well informed every step of the way. You can tell right off the Bat that he loves his profession which is rare now and days with doctors who accept medi-cal. Every person who I've spoken with on his office loves him too. His staff is also super friendly and sweet.
