Flemming David R MD

Dr Flemming is great really like him but unfortunately he has the worst office staff in the country ! The older lady who answer the phones is the biggest bitch I’ve ever dealt with in my life. Dr Flemming I don’t know why you have this individual doing anything associated with your practice. Please listen to your patients and get rid of the cancer that occupies your office.

I called Dr Flemmings office to get an appt for a referral from urgent care. I was greeted by a very rude lady that answers the phone. She told me what my insurance plan was even though it wasn’t a covered California plan and that I would have to pay cash instead. I told her it wasn’t and she wouldn’t listen and she actually said to go somewhere else and just hung up on me! THAT IS NOT HOW YOU TREAT A NEW POTENTAIL PATIENT! Perfect example of not actually caring about the patients and only caring about how the dr is gonna get paid! Don’t go here unless you want very BAD SERVICE! The lady that answers the phone is probably grumpy cause she has no husband and no life. DO NOT GO HERE!

Dr. Flemming is a good doctor. Unfortunately, the woman who answers his phone and schedules his appointments is condescending, rude and unprofessional. My family will be seeking another doctor who ensures courtesy kindness and professionalism from the onset.

he has been kind and caring in walking me thru a difficult time

I am surprised to see all the negative reviews! Dr. Flemming is an excellent urologist with great bedside manner. He is willing to listen and then offers his expertise opinion and options. Yes, maybe newer drugs, but that’s what we should all want. How horrible that a competent professional would request that you monitor your reaction and effectiveness of alleviating your symptoms to a newly prescribed drug! Yes, Im being sarcastic. Rude staff? Stacey went out of her way to get me an appointment and helped me deal with all the new crazy insurance issues! I walked in recently without an appt to get a prescription filled. She once again accommodated me and made sure I received what I needed with professional concern.

My husband is in his early thirties and 3 kids later ready for «the procedure» :) He was in and out of their office in about an hour. He tells me he had a pleasant experience which he did not expect. Dr. Flemming and his staff were knowledgeable and helpful. No regrets.

Will work with you and find important issues.

If I could rate 0-​stars I would.
The staff is RUDE… which after reading the other reviews I see is a reoccurring statement. No call reminders for appts, no cards to take home. You have to take care of yourself. I also don’t appreciate having drugs given to me that are «new to the market» and being asked to see how I react to them when I don’t even have a diagnoses yet. I didn’t find an opportunity to heal here.

This MD has good bedside manner with his patients. HOWEVER… his office staff are rude, impolite, impatient, arrogant, uneducated, unprofessional, defensive, and appear to have no medical background whatsoever. It’s sad that Dr. Flemming is either unaware of this, turns a blind eye, or does not care. I’ve never met office staff who seemingly and purposefully obstruct the continuum of patient care.
We tried to have records and reports sent to another MD who did a different procedure, of which Dr. Flemming didn’t do, but told us about. The staff immediately started throwing up walls even after we signed medical release forms to send information. Once you’ve been told you’ve got cancer, then suddenly you’re at the mercy of people who are more worried about being in control than assisting you receive care in a timely fashion. (I’m surprised someone has not already called the Medical Board of California with reports of similar issues at Dr. Flemming’s office)
Dr. Flemming… please, please, take control of your practice. Bring back a higher standard of patient care and professionalism. The people you’ve hired might be pleasurable to you but they’re making a negative impact on your business and seriously offending your patients.
You might be surprised to see that is a reflection on you. Until then, I would not refer your practice (at any of your offices) to anyone that asks for a Urologist.
Thank you for your consideration sir.

I took my 93 year old father in for a follow-​up visit about his foley catheter following a stroke. We waited ONE hour for a 4 – 5 minute visit! The «doctor» did not even examine my father, his urine or his catheter. My dad is NOW in the HOSPITAL with a septic INFECTION which spread from his bladder into his blood stream. This horrid incident would have been avoided if the «doctor» had done his job. Also the staff didn’t even offer to help me with the doors while I was wheeling Dad out of the office.

The doctor is nice. But, the staff are extremely rude and not caring. Calling the office is a nightmare because they put you on hold for a very long time with that annoying music. This office needs to reconsider their way in taking care of their patients.

* pick anyone else & they would be a better choice*
