Patient Comments
Dr. German is very organized and methodical. She's good at checklists and came to the session having familiarized herself with my chart. [...] If you're looking for a doctor to treat the chart she's perfect.

Very good experience.

Dr.German is the best PC doctor that I have had in several years. She is very attentive to your care. She is very easy to talk to . She is very caring. The system is broken, but Dr. German makes me feel that there is hope for it being put back together. We need and must have more caring doctors such as her.

[...] As far as my doctor, she Is excellent. I am happy with my doctor.
Jan 16, 2024
She was very specific in saying everything I need to do to improve my health in terms of testing and vaccinations
Jan 13, 2024
I won't take certain drugs, like statins, I will change lifestyle first....she might not understand this about me.
Dec 22, 2023
Everything is good so far. Hope it will continue like that.

I like to recognize Dr. German for her service and good care to me. She is always on top of my tests and medicines.
Dec 18, 2023
When I finally saw my doctor, she was able to figure out the problem (something I'd never even heard of), and get me a referral to a specialist. I am really grateful for her help!
Dec 17, 2023
Everyone was friendly and helpful
Dec 11, 2023
My provider listened to my health concerns and we worked on a plan to help with what I have been experiencing. I have a follow up appointment with my provider to see if the plan we put in place has been helping.
Dec 11, 2023
I am impressed with this provider's knowledge (experiential as well as medical education).

Excellent visit

Very satisfied So far

Allow doctors to feel like they can take 30 seconds to review their notes in a patient's chart prior to coming into the room. I don't want to feel like my PCP has no clue who I am, especially when I just saw them the month prior.
Jul 21, 2023
Good provider, just feel like being pushed through the appointment quickly.
Jul 15, 2023
Do a recap at the end of visit on what is happening next so it's understood.
Jul 15, 2023
I am satisfied with Dr. German as my doctor.
Jul 14, 2023
Respond a little sooner to MyChart messages if possible (though I know it's hard in a busy clinic).
Jun 14, 2023
Good! Dr. German was present with me. I did not feel rushed, & she listened to me.
Jun 14, 2023
Dr. German - it was my 1st time meeting her after my former PCP left. She was helpful, approachable, warm, & gave evidence - based advice. I was so happy it felt like a good fit having her as my PCP.
Jun 14, 2023
Great service Dr. German is very thoughtful and nice
May 27, 2023
DESDE QUE ESCOGI LA DRA:GERMAN ME ENCANTO SU SERVICIO Y RAPIDO LA ELEGI PARA MIS 3 BABYS Y LA E RECOMENDADO ES EXCELENTE , COMUNICATIVA , EFICIENTE , HONESTA Y UNA DOCTORA MUY PREOCUPADA POR SU PACIENTE Y HACE TODO LO NECESARIO PARA MEJORAR MI ESTADO DE SALUD MENTAL , EMOCIONAL Y MI SALUD EN GENERAL. ESPERO NUNCA SE VALLA Y LAS RECEPCIONISTAS SON GENIALES LES DOY UN 100 A TODO EL PERSONAL DE URMEDICINE
May 21, 2023
I'm happy with my provider
May 17, 2023
No the client and his history before speaking to him or her make sure that you deal with the problem at hand first then everything else is very annoying to have to go over your history with the doctor and then explain what happened all over again so they don't have any idea of what's going on with you [...] I think my provider is a good person maybe a little bit overwhelmed But I believe she'll get better. She still needs to recognize to listen to the patient and then she can help solve the patient's problem. Thank you.
May 13, 2023
Listen, I'm thankful to have a doctor but I need to call her sometimes and talk about what's going on and how to be able to move forward. Thank you.
May 13, 2023
Dr. German takes care of all my issues.
May 11, 2023
Every thing was great.

I want to give a Shout out to My Primary Dr Kenia Valdez and the Nurses and front Staff. They are there for us even through these Covid and diseased times. Without Folks like them we would suffer.

Dr. Kenia German is an excellent physician and has consistently made me feel like my concerns are heard.
Oct 23, 2022
While reading my bone scan rpt. Dr. Made what I consider inapprpriate remarks such as "oh, I've never seen scores this low"
Oct 17, 2022
Dr. German is an excellent physician who makes me feel confident I am receiving the most competent of care for my chronic medical condition.
Oct 14, 2022
Everything went well and continues to go well at this practice.

Provider denied my mental/emotional health concerns, which I had intended to focus our visit on. [...] explained that she would not be comfortable making changes to my therapies or providing care for my chronic conditions without referring me to a specialist. When discussing my lab results, she gasped and expressed shock at my numbers, which I found incredibly unprofessional and discourteous. When I later cried out of frustration, she responded: "I know, this must feel very unfair." I explained very clearly that my response was not because of any perception of unfairness, but rather because my conditions have been continuously misdiagnosed and mismanaged [...], and that the experience of living with my conditions, plus navigating disintegrated systems and working with 6 or so providers over the past decade and STILL not having a clear path forward has been exhausting and traumatizing. I explained this very clearly, and expressed that my focus is on moving forward. When I received my visit notes and referrals, after a week and prompting on my behalf, my provider's notes indicated that I "became tearful when discussing my diagnosis" because "I do not understand why" I have my condition. She later writes that her counseling centered on the importance of treatment "regardless of the etiology," again implying focus on the source or reason for my condition. This is an inaccurate representation of the conversation that took place.

It was fine

Great experience. [...]

This was my first time meeting Dr. German after being transferred from my old PCP. The meeting reassured me that I'm still in good hands.
Aug 23, 2022
On occasions when I go to the office and ask with the doctor for some unexpected situation for example a urine infection the specialists do very little effort to help.

PCP could be more forthcoming about specifics which are relevant to her: e.g., home blood pressure readings which are of concern to her and which she wants to be reported to her before the next appointment, and how best to communicate with the office when there are emergent medical issues. When asked to clarify, she can be very concrete and clear, which is appreciated.
Jul 26, 2022
This was my first visit with Dr. German. I was very happy and satisfied with the care she gave me.
Jul 23, 2022
The provider I was given is clearly overwhelmed with the new work load and has been extremely careless in her profession towards myself and my family. Didnt listen to us, screwed up ordering my labs and then left me to scramble to deal with that fact.
Jul 20, 2022
I'm satisfied
Jul 15, 2022
Dr. German is excellent!
Jun 15, 2022
Not pushing Statins, when lifestyle changes have proven to work. And when I say I am not willing to take them.

Always be polite

Dr.Kenia German is extraordinary. Love her. Very attentive. Best Dr. I've ever had.
Apr 07, 2022
Great job so far. [...]

My primary care doctor is amazing
Apr 04, 2022
I think you provide very standard, transactional care in which you focus on health problems mostly instead of understanding the full picture of a person's life. I'd say you need to change the name from "health care" to "disease care".

I was really hoping for better explanations about birth control options. My doctor pretty much stuck to telling me the information about the birth control that came from an info sheet she gave me (which I had read, and already knew the information she told me). She also questioned me about why I was skeptical about hormonal birth control. Shouldn't doctors be knowledgeable or refer patients to a more informational source if the patient has concerns and the doctor cannot give a well thought out, researched answer?

Keep doing what you're doing
