Motion Picture & Television Hospital

The pharmacy hours are 8am to 7pm monday — friday and 9−4pm weekends and holidays. They have the best pharmacy here.

Very disorganized office. The staff are nice enough but the delays are long. The doctors and nurses didn’t seem to communicate clearly with one another. No one was really sure what was happening.

Completely Hit or miss…
I came here one Sunday during flu season and had a great experience. Today, however, is a different story. My girlfriend woke up with a muscle spasm, seeing as how were both are in the industry and I had previously had a good experience here on Sunday. I thought we’d give it a try. All we got was a 2 hr time suck and a doctor who felt she could benefit from a cortisone shot, but said he couldn’t give it to her on a Sunday. Seriously!?! This is the motion picture hospital and you can’t administer a cortisone shot! Motion picture health needs to step it up to support working professionals who pay for this facility to operate! Classic example of the lack of quality control in the motion picture health system.

I am not a big Unilocaler. But this place is great. I called on a Sunday evening, i was sick and coughing and had tech scout the next day. I wish I could remember the name of the Dr. I saw, young guy, (kid really) he was great. I did not have an appointment, was seen in under half an hour.
My wife has had two spinal steroid injections there and another small surgery, the place is great.
This is an amazing benefit to being employed in the Motion Picture Industry. We are very grateful.

I have to say, the Motion Picture Hospital employs some the best staff, nurses and doctors… From the time you check-​in for your procedure and check out, they make sure that you are well taken care of.
The hospital is nice and clean, almost glamorous in a way. Scheduling a procedure is pretty easy as long as your primary provides all the necessary documentation to get things fixed, sewn or stitched for you :) It makes checking-​in quick & simple so make sure to get that all sorted out before popping in the MPH. The nurses here are verrrry nice, it really makes for a comfortable day which one could really appreciate especially after a dose of anesthesia :)
I do agree with the other reviews regarding the wait time when you try to call the hospital, response time could seriously use a big improvement and something that they should probably spend some time re-​working.
Overall amidst the obnoxious call time wait, the hospital employees sure makes up for it with great attitude and amazing care.

I was in for a $ 65.00 cash payment.(uninsured)So Dr. Ricard Landers would refill my necessary medications. Because I was already there he thoght it woulld be a good idea to do some blood work. To make sure all of my numbers where still good. I was informed I would not be charged extra as it was already included. To my chagrin the following month I received a bill of $ 176.70 for those tests I did not request.
Jackie Mattola is in charge of their financia account adjustments and is forcing this un
employed actor to pay the $ 176.70 for services I never requsted or needed. Take notice U.C.L.A. medical. Jackie Mattola will do anything to make you money.
I have been a member of the screen actors guild for over 15 years. With dr. Axelrod. And Dr. Landerd as my primary physicians dr. Garb and Dr. Biederman. Have also been expentlery in other matters. ***** ALERT***** JACKIE MATTOLA and her erroneous billing is something to protect yourself againt.

Wow, so much has changed in a year. Since January, it seems as if they have changed everything.
Any day, any time you try to call in to make an appointment, you are on hold for a minimum of 20 minutes. No longer is it easy to get a quick appointment.
The last three appointments I had, I was left waiting in excess of an hour. The very last appointment we were waiting for an hour and a half.
Used to LOVE this place and insurance coverage. Now, I am seriously thinking about Kaiser. So disappointed.

I recently had outpatient foot surgery here. Everyone was friendly and professional. Their whole setup made the experience very comfortable and easy. Unfortunately I cannot recommend them. I was overcharged when billed. I initially paid the bill in full and it has been a nightmare trying to get my refund. The bill was paid by my insurance company AND myself and they have not refunded me! Several times I was told the check is coming. Now 6 months later I am told they are reviewing the claim.

My review is based on my experience with Dr. Saeed Humayun. He works for the elder care portion of the hospital and was assigned as my Dad’s primary care physician after he suffered a stroke in 2010.
The whole experience has been a nightmare. My dad has gone from bad to worse under Humayun’s care. I am aware that some of that may be natural.
But I’ve never had a primary care physician who was more cold, more inflexible, and more difficult to communicate with than this doctor. He was always difficult to get ahold of and very vague in his answers. I would think someone recovering from a stroke, the doctor might work a little more closely with the family. Not this guy.
In my opinion. This doctors care has severely negatively impacted my father’s life. This is the worst experience with any doctor I’ve had in my life. The other doctors I’ve encountered there have been great. This doctor. Horrendous.

My second procedure here. Cheerful and professional. They are a very caring bunch. They made an otherwise embarrassing procedure (ok, colonoscopy) not so bad. Most of the time in a hospital I freeze. These nurses kept me warm and happy. Everything went smoothly. The staff at this hospital is the best.

Wonderful facility, very caring staff. Wait time is very short, and you’re seen by doctors right away. It’s very pleasant and easy to talk to everyone here, including the staff who answer the phones. Thank god I have this health plan! =)

What service! On day of operation they provide you and your family with your very own hospital room (even for outpatient surgery). Nurses are so pleasant, especially Jennifer in J Zone.
The hospital is clean, organized, and isn’t crowded at all. I love their décor of Hollywood pictures through the hospital which can entertain you while you are waiting.
Only bad part — they don’t have a flower shop. They should consider opening one.
