Bell Gardens Family Medical Center

First off Dr Madhuri Petkar is rude and hateful. Not caring AT ALL. She doesn't know anything that is going on with her patients. Assumes EVERYTHING and when she is proven wrong, she gets mad and interrupts you until you shut up. SHE IS SO UNPROFESSIONAL!!!! Don't get me started on the staff! One person tells you one thing, when another tells you the complete opposite. Everyone in this clinic is incompetent. Do yourself a favor and don't go here!!! You will regret it. I would give zero stars if I could.

doctor veryyy rude!!! I can’t ask questions cuse ‘I don’t have insurance if I want answers I need insurance ‘all this he was saying almost yelling

Getting you blood draw is always a nightmare here. Do not recommend. There systems are always back up and they never have a solution for this. Making patients to resubmit orders from doctors already sent out 2 weeks prior. Just all unorganized.

On March 24, 2025 I went into the Medical office for a walk in appointment due to my tonsil hurting immensely and the pain traveling to my ear. When getting checked out by sir Dr. Leprechaun, he did nothing to help me out with the excruciating pain. He recommend for me to return home and continue taking Ibuprofen and Day Quil as my “immune system is just fighting a virus”. I deliberately repeated my self that the pain was too much and that the ibuprofen was not working. He told me “just up the dosage”. I continued trying to explain that no matter how much pain medication I would take, the pain would not go away and I stated how I was unable to eat or vaguely drink anything. He continuously argued to just go home and take ibuprofen. I was completely in disbelief and very upset because I stated consistently that nothing was helping. I was very disappointed and never would have thought I’d be treated like this by a doctor since the front office staff and medical assistant are super sweet and attentive.

Terrible, they had one job, and they couldn't even do that blood work right now. My son has to come back twice because they are so unorganized. After specifically the doctor put on the order STAT, they still didn't submit the information to the Dr office after 2 weeks. I highly do not recommend to take your child here at all .
