Community Memorial Health Center – West 5th Street

"Dr.Garfias is the best pediatrician very caring and so professional takes her time to examine my daughter she’s been her doctor since she was born. I would definitely recommend her. Also been coming to this clinic since I was pregnant the nurses are Nice and helpful. The waiting time is not bad at all :)"

"Dr Garfias is such a great pediatrician. She is super nice, she answers to all my questions and concerns. Very knowledgeable. She takes the time to fully examine the kids. Thank you Dr. Garfias you are the best! Dr. Crownover was my OB and I gotta say that he is a great doctor as well! He was my OB during my pregnancies, he’s very kind. My 2 C-sections were done by him, and he did amazing. No complications during or after surgery."

"been having an absolutely terrible experience with this health provider. They will not release test results to you without an appointment to do so - but make it almost impossible to make an appointment to do get the results. Every time I have tried to make a follow up appointment with a doctor before my appointment they have taken a leave of absence (they would not let me get my results from another doctor without a long process of approval from the doctor I saw). I have never been seen by the same provider even though I have made a follow up appointment after each appointment I finish. (Because every doctor I’ve seen there has quit or taken a leave and not returned yet after months) They will not return your calls when requesting appointments & will book you out a month, cancel your appointment, and book you out again. I have never left a negative review on google but my health is in shambles and this place has left me even worst than when I started trying to get better over 4 months ago. If you want good care, strongly advise you to stay away."

"Dr Garfias is wonderful 100%recommend her. My Child was seeing another pediatrician at the South Oxnard location she is nice too but I felt she was always in a rush. So one day I ended seeing Dr. Garfias and I couldn’t be happier. She is patient, kind and very detailed. Absolutely love her and will be taking my new baby with her. Ps. This office is also better handle than the South location. The receptionist at the south are careless and prioritize their personal conversations over helping patients."

"I will preface this by saying that I am lucky to have Medicaid. I went to this medical center for the last 6 months while I was caring for a sick relative in the area. I have anxiety about visiting the doctor's office due to some harsh treatment I received while I lived abroad. This place is fabulous, even during Covid times. I saw Dr. Graciela Hernandez and the level of care I received was high caliber. She was very respectful, listened, explained things to me, was extremely thorough, not at all hesitating before recommending me to other specialists. I also was very impressed that she was knowledgeable about certain diets that have shown benefits for people with certain autoimmune conditions- this is not common with doctors in my experience. Because of her thoroughness I now have a proper diagnosis for a few conditions and a plan for getting my health back on track. Honestly, going to this medical clinic gave me a lot of the tools I need to be an advocate for myself and I am deeply grateful for the level of care I received. Thank you to everyone at this medical center for taking such good care of me and doing such important work."
