I have a great GP but have seen a few 'specialists' over the years that displayed little interest during the visit and each of those times I walked away feeling I had wasted my time and the insurance's money. But, there are more excellent 'specialists' than not, just do your homework before simply making an appointment with 'the next available'.

We went to PAMF urgent care center on a Sunday for medical assistance on a broken arm. We got some X-rays which is basically all that's to it for the 3-hour long visit. After seeing low ratings of PAMF's specialists, we decided to see a doctor outside of PAMF. When we asked their radiology department to give us the X-rays, they said it's all digital now and we would have to pay $20 to get it on a CD. Since we paid for the X-ray exam, we feel that PAMF is ripping us off. Needless to say we will never use that facility again.

My doctor Dr.Kroes is an amazing doctor. I had some tests done and I was very worried he actually called me at work and we had a nice conversation he wanted to see how I was doing and told me my results..That made me feel at ease and very satisfied with not just Dr.Kroes but the whole facility. You never wait more then 15 minutes..

I have been so impressed with Dr. Rangarajan. She is very competent, efficient, personable, and thorough. I asked her an off-the-cuff question about my calcium intake and she spewed very specific info on the milligrams I needed and the sources for it. She checked in with me about it the next time we met. She answers all my questions thoroughly and never makes me feel rushed. But she's prompt and I never have to wait to see her. When I call for a regular exam, I'm always offered an appointment the next day.

My experience at the Palo Alto Medical Foundation spanned only a couple years, but it gave an overall very good impression. The administration is quick, helpful, and efficient. All of my requests have been processed in a timely manner with great results. My primary care physician was great with her patient interaction, knowledge, and ability to convey her knowledge to the patients. I definitely recommend this foundation.

Founded as a non-profit to insure even the poor and disadvantaged could afford health care, the Palo Alto Medical Foundation or PAMF has had a few troubles recently stemming from overcharging of indigent patients. The mission has not changed, and it staff is full of top-notch doctors, technicians, and lab attendants. It is one of the leading health care facilities in the area, and also one of the better ones. IT's relatively new campus, centrally located right in Palo Alto, is hard to miss -- it's a well designed location that aids the foundation in it's goal of first-class service. It has a close relationship with Stanford University, due to proximity and sharing of resources.
