Obgyn near La Jolla

“Highly recommend Dr. Rothman. He took care of my son on his day off and saved us a trip to the Emergency Department. He went above and beyond and truly cares for his patients. We are very grateful.“

“I had a myomectomy with Dr Mel Kurtulus. I had been having very long (10+ days) and heavy periods for a few months, found out I had two large fibroids (why don’t more women talk about this?). I had the fibroids removed laparoscopically by Dr Kurtulus. While operating he looked everywhere and also found that I had endometriosis, which he removed.

I thought he did a great job. I had a small concern about how my belly button was healing and Dr Kurtulus called me back on a Saturday, I sent him photos to review. He confirmed everything was fine and that we should follow up in a few months. My belly button looks a little weird, but he did take out a fibroid the size of a grapefruit from it so I’m gonna assume it’ll take a minute to heal properly. (It’s only been 3 weeks since my surgery)

The good news is: I got my period after the procedure and it was totally normal. It was light enough that I didn’t have to wear a tampon, pad and period underwear and it only lasted 5 days. What a relief.

I would recommend this procedure to anyone suffering from fibroids. Dr Kurtulus did a great job. 10/10 would recommend“

“Alisa was so thorough and thoughtful and really dialed in on the things I wanted to address. She has a very kind and gentle energy and it’s clear she is very skilled and experienced. I look forward to getting more treatments with her.“

“Typical UCSD healthcare excellent standards. Staff demonstrates excellent personal and professional skills.“

“Dr. Riley delivered me Oct 1981, at Mercy Hospital. I don't remember him but obviously he is amazing.“

“Great location, easy to find parking (they have valet too), super friendly staff and Dr Akhavan was thorough, concerned and gave me great advice regarding my health going forward. Just moved from Austin TX and this practice is a 180 from the treatment I was use to out there. Thank you to all the great people that work at this location for the pleasant, stress-free experience.“

“Love this office! The staff is so nice and every time I walk in there it smells so good and refreshing. The office is super clean. Not to mention Laura the receptionist is very kind to me every time I walk in there. Katheryne the assistant is very helpful and Dr. Schmidt's charisma is unmatchable. Keep it up!“

“I love Dr. Anmar She's so nice and patient. With her patience. And this is my baby Rand saying Hi you guys.“

“Grateful for the care provided be UCSD health throughout my pregnancy. All the staff I experienced were kind and helpful. Would definitely recommend“

“I concur with some other reviews here complaining about front desk staff. It was very difficult to get an appointment. Each time I called I was told Dr. Amy French was fully booked and to call back at the end of the month. When I'd call at the end of the month, they told me the same thing. Very frustrating. But I will say Dr. Amy French was TOTALLY worth the wait. I needed a uterine biopsy and she was so gentle and so skilled I hardly felt it. I was so relieved and she took plenty of time to discuss different HRT options.“

“I've been to UCSD Express Care downtown about 5 times over the past few years. Every time, I've had a great experience and the care I received was top notch!“
