Wong Hanson P Md - Grace Life Medical Ctr

Bellflower, CA Pediatricians 11/04/05: 'Alternative Treatment'

This clinic offers prolotherapy an alternative treatment for arthritis and other types of muscle and back injuries.

It consists of injections in the affected areas and can be done up to three times a week. The desired results are to promote new tissue growth and relieve pain.

It did not work for me because of the type of injury and the treatment is painful as well as costly.

Dr. Wong is a very caring individual who donates much time in poverty stricken countries.

This is a Christian based clinic and you will be offered the choice of having the doctor pray for you and your treatment.

Schames Mayer Dds

Hawthorne, CA Dentists - General Dentists 11/04/05: 'First Rate Dental Care'

This office is state of the art, offering laser teeth cleaning and other dental services.
He also specializes in other types of dental trauma such as teeth grinding and popping in the jaw and other facial areas.
Dental therapy consists of a device used to keep you from teeth grinding which will help tremendously with headaches and sore jaws. Also massagings of temples and shoulders and a type of injection along upper shoulders and along jawlines that relives pain.

His dental staff is wonderful and attentive and very attuned to your comfort.

Orthopaedic Hospital

I have gone to this hospital twice to have an MRI. The hours are great, you can make an appointment from early in the morning until 9:00 PM.
Unlike many doctors offices there is virtually no wait time and results are forwarded within a few days to requesting doctor.

My only complaint is the technician who seem to belittle the surgery I was considering as something "he would never do because of seeing worse".
This type of discussion should be done with the doctor or surgeon who can explain risks and benefits as well as recommend patients that have had similar problems.

Street parking is available as well as paid parking in the rear.

Peck Joseph C MD

Torrance, CA Orthopedists - Torrance, CA General Practice Physicians 11/04/05: 'Best Doctor I have ever gone to'

I began seeing Dr. Peck as part of another medical group due to a worker place injury.
He is a caring doctor who takes the time to really listen to what you are saying to him.
He has taken the time to call me after office hours and help me choose a surgeon. I also always requested him to do epidurals and other delicate procedures regarding my back injury.
He will listen to you and make sure you are referred to exactly the type of treatment you need.
I cannot recommend him highly enough

Marina Del Rey Ambulatory Surg

Marina Del Rey, CA Boating Clubs 11/04/05: 'Caring Staff'

I have had to go to Pain Net several times for epidurals and nerve blocks. They offer transportation to pick you up and take you back home on your treatment dates out of concern for your safety.
I have never found a better nursing staff anywhere. I have gone in a number of times and even though it is not a pleasant procedure they always make me smile.
For each procedure that I have had done the doctor came in and sat down with me and explained what we would be doing and why it needed to be done. The surgical staff is wonderful and their interaction with each other and the patients makes for a relaxed comforting atmosphere.

Pet City

I love going in this store. They have all types of pets, hamsters, birds, fish as well as puppies and kittens.
They have the creepy animals too such as snakes and spiders.
Hamsters and lopped ear rabbits are in large corral type enclosures where you can reach in and pet them and watch them play. Children will love watching them while you shop for pet care grooming items and other needs.

Fleming Fred J Attorney

Los Angeles, CA Legal Services - Los Angeles, CA General Practice Attorneys 11/04/05: 'Workers Comp/Social Security Attorney'

I found Mr. Fleming online and not knowing what to look for called his office. They send someone out almost immediately to get your information and have you sign paperwork but you never actually speak to the attorney.
Unless you are knowledgeable of the way the system works and do not mind having little or no contact with the attorney who is supposed to be representing you I cannot recommend this office.
While I did finally get my social security settlement it was more from my own persistance than anything done by my supposed representatives office.

Daniels Jewelers

This store offers a wide selection of jewelry at inexpensive prices. While it is not the highest quality you can find nice birthstone, earrings and other gifts that are suitable for a birthday or special occasion.
They also change watch batteries and do ear piercing, as well as offer in house financing. Be prepared to give a down payment unless you have excellent credit.

Thomas A Curtis Inc

Los Angeles, CA Psychiatrists 11/04/05: 'Busy Practice'

Dr. Curtis has a very busy practice as many worker's compensation cases are referred to him. While this is not in itself detrimental when herds of patients are given appointments on the same day to undergo tests and given half hour consultations before having a variety of medicines are prescribed I doubt that this is what the practice of psychiatry was intended to be.
If you are looking for long term therapy or one on one interaction this is not the best choice.
