About Clinica Sierra Vista - 34th Street Community Health Center
Clinica Sierra Vista – 34th Street Community Health Center is a comprehensive medical clinic that serves individuals and families in Bakersfield since 2012. It offers women’s health, pediatrics, and family medicine. Experienced doctors provide high‑quality, compassionate care. The clinic accepts most insurance and managed care plans, including Medi‑Cal and Medicare. If a patient is uninsured, discounted rates may be available based on income and family size, and services are never refused because of payment ability. Some patients report problems with medication refills, feeling that prescriptions are taken off or not refilled. Calls to the clinic sometimes end with doctors hanging up or staff refusing to provide captions for deaf patients. Other complaints involve rude or confused staff at the front desk, especially when handling prescription requests or scheduling appointments. Phone calls can be long, with waits of over twenty minutes, and it can be hard to reach a doctor when an appointment is needed. Despite these issues, many patients praise the clinic’s environment. The place is clean, with plenty of waiting space, and staff are described as helpful. The OBGYN and pediatric teams are often highlighted as very good, with doctors listening to concerns and caring for patients. Overall, the clinic offers a range of services and supportive care, but some patients experience frustration with phone and medication management.

I have called repeatedly with the same problem and I still continue to have problems. What happened to treating patients with care?
