Comprehensive Blood & Cancer Center

One of the "doctors" kicked us out of the WAITING ROOM, because my sister was on the ground with her iPad. She was a little upset with me because she tried to grab hand sanitizer and I stopped her, my sister is autistic and doesn't understand why I stop her from doing things. This "doctor" told us to go wait In the car on a hot as day because it was a place of healing. Worst place ever, and not the first time I've had an experience like this.

While medical care at CBCC is very good, I am very disappointed in the policy which refuses to allow me to attend consultations and "vitals" with my wife. We are BOTH patients at CBCC, and have been since 2011, are BOTH seniors, but are frequently treated as though we are irresponsible, school kids. The medical staff are not the guilty parties here.

The med techs are. The overwhelming number of Hispanic females (some of whom struggle with the English language) who are apparently filling the role of Covid cops should not be tasked with directing those of us who've been there and done that in life.

The care I receive from CBCC and Dr Cartmell and his staff are beyond amazing. I love the fact that when I go see Dr. Cartmell he listens and answers all my questions. As a cancer patient going through this journey I could not ask for a better place to have my care taken care of. Thank You CBCC for taking care of me!

To all you beautiful ladies, This is a simple letter. Just to let you all know "What you do does make a Difference and you are Appreciated"! Thank you! To answering phones, scheduling appointments, getting referrals authorized, to chatting while we wait and examining rooms. Dr Gordon Nichole you are a great surgeon you are also a great and fantastic person I am so grateful to be able to have you as my doctor your staff is also fantastic I appreciate you you have made a difference in my life and I thank you with my whole being.

One of the things I did not expect when going to see her was her patient communication skills. I felt like she was dismissing my complaint as if I was making it up. I was referred to her because my gyno had concerns and felt that something more was going on. When I went to the follow up MRI appt she said nothing wrong and to talk to my primary and just shooed me away.

I felt like she did not care if I still had issues. The nurse was so nice and sweet and understood my pain and noted it. Dr. Gordon spent less then 5 min on my MRI report appt. I am sad because this Dr has no feelings for people and there issues. I would not recommend seeing her is you are a person that has a body that requires digging to figure out what is wrong. However, for those who had a good experience I am happy that you did.

I walked in with breast cancer referred by Dr Nguyen to see Dr Nicole Gordon at CBCC on Truxtun Avenue in Bakersfield California I had surgery on 5)18)21 Again on 6)01)21. The staff is remarkable they are concerned caring professional and sincere I have been very fortunate to have had them with me by my side I Appreciate all they done for me and I need them to know that THEY DO MAKE A DIFFERENCE and I THANK THEM ALL. Today 8)3)21 I walked out of her office CANCER FREE!

What a wonderful, clean and professional office. The staff always has a smile on their face and is more than obliged to help suit your every need and answer any questions you may have. Dr. Geover Fernandez is absolutely amazing. He really cares a out his patients and remembers everyone and everything about you even if you haven't seen him in two years. They make you feel extremely comfortable here.

Worst experience ever. Made an appointment for April 28, 2021 literally the day before the scheduler called to reschedule for May 5th at 9am with a Dr who I didn't know how to spell his name so I had the scheduler spell it for me since I out everything into my phone. I have my work schedule a month ahead of time so I knew I would have to work on May 6th and I have court in the morning (also scheduled 2 months ahead) so when I got to CBCC they tried to tell me my appointment was for tomorrow May 6.

I had the front end ladies check a again then they tried to get me squeezed in then they couldn't get me in to be seen. I took time out to make sure I was off today since they had rescheduled me. So upsetting. I would not recommend them!

Dr Ravi Patel knows how to pick the best of the best. His staff is caring, pleasant and professional in every aspect. I flew through my 5 week's of Radiation and Chemotherapy treatments because everyone makes you feel so at ease. His staff makes you feel like they're your family with personable help in every aspect of your treatments. If you have a question they are more than happy to answer it in way's that you will understand.

If you have Cancer this is the only place you will be for your treatments. I can't say enough about how pleased I am with the staff that assisted in giving me my treatments to give me a fighting chance to be a healthy person who can continue to be with my children and grandchildren for year's to come. I applaud you Dr Patel for giving me back my health and well being! If you have any decisions to make about where to go for your cancer treatments forget the rest and go to the BEST! Fantastic!

I've gone through 2 rounds of radiation so far at CBCC (65 treatments) for metastatic breast cancer, they are the most caring, understanding, helpful people that I have dealt with. I am so blessed to have been treated by these angels in disguise.
