Shawn N. Chaikin, DO

Dr. Chaikin is the only thing keeping me at this practice. Cedars is a mess, and I already switched my OB/GYN to Providence because I couldn't even get through to this practice on the phone and had to schedule months out - even for a breast lump examination - plus no one told me when my primary doctor left and I was only seen by a NP after that. I will give the primary care department one more try only cause I like Dr. Chaikin so much. Please improve office logistics.

He did not check my ears, nose and throat for infection which is why I came in instead of another video visit. He did listen to my lungs. He wanted to prescribe the same meds the previous doctor prescribed and OTC meds that wasn't working as well as pills not covered by my insurance. Then stated he prescribed less so they should be cheaper. I really felt some negative energy from that doctor and discriminated against by age and nationality.

Made an appointment to see my physician for a yearly checkup, but my visit was primarily with another doctor who I have never met, and was not discussed with me prior to my visit. Discussions felt hurried and incomplete. My doctor walked in at the end of the visit but only to recap what had already been discussed. I had also filled out a pre check-in form before my visit where I mentioned having anxiety. It was clear the doctor had not read the form as it was never brought up, and after feeling uncomfortable with the visit I chose not to even bother discussing it as I had already decided I will be seeking treatment elsewhere.
