Kaiser Permanente-Pharmacy: Shaffer Mary J MD

Feb 2024

Dr. Trang Van Nguyen is the BEST. She's been my doc since 2009 with the exception of one year due to change insurance but she is the reason I went back to Kaiser. I don't trust any other doctors besides her. She takes her time in discussing what is going on and answers any questions of mine without me feeling inferior. She is very busy because it took me a few months to get her but she's definitely worth the wait!

I had Kaiser insurance for many years, and feel very grateful for the care received through the years. My experience with doctors, and nurses, has been great. Even during the pandemia they were there to consult and to serve .I am again grateful also to the office and reception because they have been there always willing to work with your schedule . Thank you

I hardly ever come here. Well if you compare it to a 5 year span. But recently I've been here often. This is my 4th time since Aug of 2020. And now it's January. I do like how they have an X-ray area and a pharmacy. Makes the trip easier. Especially when you are referred to imaging. Most to almost all Kaiser's have a pharmacy. Since they keep everything in house. So that is nice. They are open as late S the clinic. Only the hospital pharmacy is open 24 hours. You have to be a patient of Kaiser to get meds that I know of. But anyone can buy the over the counter stuff they also carry. So if you can't find it somewhere else. You could find it here. I've had 3 X-rays done here more. And the man who works there is great. Very friendly and courteous. He makes getting an X-ray simple and painless. My doctor is great. I've had my differences with him about my knee. But he has explained to me that due to Covid 19 his hands are tied to physical therapy I am very grateful to him. I'm alive due to him. I came in august for vertigo. He said it looked and sounded like vertigo. But to be thorough, he had me get a CT. He didn't like that there was a little pain. Glad he did. I was rushed to the ER and within 3 hours I had a blood bubble removed that was the size of Golf ball. It had been pushing on my brain. It was an emergency surgery during Covid times But thank God he wanted to be thorough and there was a window of 51/2 hours available for me to have my surgery. So I may not always agree with my doctor. But how many times can you say your doctor saved your life. Thank You Dr Mathur and the surgeons at the Kaiser hospital in Anaheim.
