STILL not allowing spouses in due to Covid. What a load of bs. Dental offices have been open for over a year working with aerosols and the general public, hospitals have been allowing spouses to attend births for months, the state is fully reopening tomorrow but medical offices just refuse to go back to normal. There's no science behind it as California is doing fine- just all about control by UCSF and their management.If you are first after lunch be prepared to be there for a long time. Both times I went was told to be there at 12:45. They are actually at lunch and the lobby fills up with people( (one of which was clearly sick but told them it was allergies, makes me think what's the point of even prescreening if someone is breathing like a Buffalo, sniffling and blowing their nose for 10 minutes straight), anyways both times waited until about 1:05-1:10 pm when they actually call you back. Actual appt Suzanne was wonderful and filled me in as we went along. Her bedside manner is wonderful. The doctor I met for the 20 week anatomy check was friendly as well, believe his name to be Dr. Weiss. They made the rest bearable and if I had to go back I'd request to be seen by them.

Waited a few minutes after my appointment time. It was nice and clean there. The tech was nice. After she did the measurements she went ahead and was explain what body part it was and gave my results right away. If anyone is curious about parking, you can park against the fence at Chevron gas station which is really close to the office. That is their patient parking.

I had an excellent experience here yesterday for my ultrasound. The office was clean and efficient. My ultrasound technician, Monica, was absolutely amazing. She was incredibly kind, patient and personable. She talked me through every step of my scans, explained what she was looking at, the measurements she was taking, and generally narrated the screening so I felt like I knew what was going on and could enjoy the experience. My doctor gave me her undivided attention, answered my questions, and offered me enough information so that I could make informed decisions about my care. At this weird time during COVID, my husband wasn't able to join me at the appointment, but I was able to video call him so that he could be included. I had my first ultrasound for this pregnancy at Diablo Valley Perinatial Assoc. in Walnut Creek, where I was treated terribly. I could not be more pleased with the care I received at UCSF and I'm relieved that I will be seeing them for my future ultrasounds.
