I was charged for a no show appointment. I had a 7:45 AM appointment which I completely forgot. The staff called me at 7:50 AM to remind me. There was no other reminder SMS or email sent. I said I could make it in the next 10 mins. To my surprise the staff said they cannot accommodate me and charged me $100. This is really the worst experience I have had with my 4 years in San Ramon where the staff are so rude and cannot be accommodative of even a 15 minutes delay. When I had my previous appointment with them I was made to wait 10 minutes before seeing the doc. Am I supposed to charge you guys for it?

I had a terrible experience with Dr. Temkin and after going to him for two visits I am no longer a patient of his and transferring to another doctor office.

Dr. Temkin is first a nice guy, easy to communicate with and straight forward. Hard to not trust a person that shows he cares by listening and works to solve your issue. Great doctor. John Heverly

Absolutely INSENSITIVE Staff and customer service. You caused so much pain to my family; I will go to consumer court and also pursue suing your company for such an insensitive treatment towards customers. THIS IS OUTRIGHT NOT ACCEPTABLE. Bad behavior and insensitive approach towards my wife caused unnecessary trauma who is already going through treatment. We are taking this very seriously & will report to also Better Business Bureau. NEVER HANG UP PHONE on Customers.

I've been going to Dr. Temkin for years now and I've stuck with him, because he listens to his patients and truly cares. It's always a great chat when having to go too. The vibe of the office is clean, modern and makes you feel comfortable too. I recommend him to anyone!

Absolutely amazing doctor! Been a patient of the Doc for over 15 years, he has always been a straight shooter, doesn't cram pills or surgery down your throat. He genuinely cares about your well being. I could never imagine having a different primary. Him and his staff are patient and kind. You won't regret being his patient.

Dr. Temkin is one of the best primary care physicians and he has always been on top of my health. He would never disrespect a patient. He has longevity with his patients.
