This office is an absolute nightmare. They don’t even know the most basic things about PSA levels. My father had a PSA of almost 100 and they put him on antibiotics for three weeks instead of him on antibiotics for three weeks instead of getting him referred for imaging. (after already seeing his bloodwork and urine that showed zero signs of infection ) By the time we got a CT done, he is at stage four cancer, and we are still waiting for a specific type of imaging (PSMA). That is the most basic thing you do for prostate can... read more
Worse practice I've ever dealt with, the medical staff is ok when you deal directly with them, the admin staff sucks! I've never dealt with a practice in which the telephone operator goes over the results of test. With this practice I'd not be surprised if I got a call from the telephone operator saying "Sorry you only have 6 months to live". This review was prompted by past experience and lately I've been waiting over 3 days for a call-back. Save yourself some grief, don't use this practice. Look at the reviews and the 3.0 ... read more
We have been patients for a while and have never felt comfortable with him. He doesn't appear to want to take care of older patients and never gives a thorough or even a halfway decent exam regardless of the problem one may be having. I was supposed to receive a breast exam in order to get my mammogram and he performed the exam through my clothing. No one in this office wears a mask even though all of the other medical offices we have been to recently have a mask requirement.
I left a bad review about the ADMINISTRATIVE staff, but should have added that the MEDICAL staff is wonderful. If you look at the reviews for this practice they are typical of the Palm Springs/Palm Desert area....horrible ADMINISTRATIVE staff.
Despite being assigned to Dr. Palmer via my insurance company when I called regarding a positive COVID test I was told to just go to Urgent Care because he wasn't accepting new patients.
The staff is outrageous!! They don't listen and don't do what they say. Many medication delays because they don't respond. They are untruthful and skirt issues. They claim requests have been send and they weren't. Today as I spoke to one of them about because they called me about a lab request. I advised the voice mail they were talking about was one week ago. AND if I didn't like what they were doing that I should see another provider if I wanted! Nice customer service Dr. Palmer. When will you lean that your staff is the w... read more
Dr. Palmer gets 5 stars. His office staff gets one.
No, I would not recommend. Poor office staff, unreasonable requirements signing away your rights, i. e. arbitration. Non caring attitude, refusing care, on and on. Stay away.
His staff is unprofessional, can't get a callback nor an appointment. I have to use this doctor because my insurance forced me to use him, but if you can choose a doctor. Please choose a different doctor
