Paulus Santoso, MD

"Don't waste your time with this office if you have serious issues. Dr Santoso is very dismissive. Also, apparently he's constantly on vacation, or at least that's the excuse given for the lack of communication about pending procedures. I wasted almost a whole year with this Dr, now I have to start all over with a new Dr! To say I'm absolutely livid is an understatement!!**update** new Dr found multiple issues that Dr Santoso never bothered to check for, or never bothered telling me about. Medical negligence!!!! Stay away from this horrible Dr/office!!"

"Dr Santos is the best, however some of the young staff are rude!!! Plus was caught by surprise with a $20 fee for my disability online form.."

"I love Doctor Vong And Santos they did great with both my kids I almost died with my first one he reacted so quickly they are both very great long wait times but they are so worth it I wouldn't have anyone else deliver my kids"

"all I'm saying is don't waste your time even coming here . Dr.Santos lacks sympathy for his Patients . Take your insurance somewhere else . UCR Womens Health has an amazing selection of (obgyns) and providers ."

"STAY AWAY unless you want to be seriously TRAUMATIZED. No woman should ever have to be demeaned degraded and dehumanized while simultaneously having a cowardly and chauvinistic doctor beat around the bush to tell a mother they are loosing their baby while also trying to give them false hope. My first appointment here was great the nurse practitioner is a saint she is really a wonderful and compassionate woman. My second appointment was with Dr. Santoso and it could not have been more different. The questions I was being asked by him before any examination was done were leading me to believe something was wrong. He set me up for my second ultrasound and I could tell by looking at it the baby hadn’t grown. I asked him to be real with me and he said he wanted transvaginal ultrasound he had me undress but had no idea that the ultrasound in that room wasn’t equipped to do that so I had to get dressed again and change rooms, I found it weird because there was a random woman in the room which kind of made me wonder if he had expected to have an issue, after the ultra sound I was told the baby was only measuring 6 weeks and of course being that I was supposed to be 9 weeks along that brought rise to many questions for me but He told me to stop asking him question and he became so disrespectful and unkind that my husband had to step in and ask him to have some compassion and respect because he could see I was scared we were loosing our child. He refused to even acknowledge any of my concerns or address questions about me potentially loosing my baby. Then proceeded to ask if he could talk to my husband outside the room alone about me which is a serious violation of my rights and truly shows the the level of disrespect this doctors has for women in general. I have never felt more demeaned and dehumanized. I told him he was being rude and my husband agreed he said his staff didn’t think so, and I made sure to point out that they work for him and aren’t gonna say anything that might cost them their jobs. My husband refused to speak to him alone and I asked for the female doctor since it was clear he was not capable of understanding what I was going through and he started telling me I was prejudiced and rude for asking questions about what was going on with my pregnancy. I have never been so appalled by a doctors behavior and I am a nurse. The fact I even have to be made to feel like I have to explain why I want a female doctor is disgusting. I demanded the nurse practitioner I saw the first time come in and talk to me and after some reluctance on his part she came is hugged me said she is sorry he made the experience so traumatic come to find out he hadn’t even looked at any of my blood work but NP Duarte went over everything with meconfirmed what I had suspected and what Dr. Santos’s was too much of a coward to tell me, which is that I my baby likely stopped growing they couldn’t find a heart beat and I am likely going to miscarry she ordered blood work and told me the doctor was transferring me out for care because he was too arrogant to admit any mishandling of the situation, she apologized said she was gonna try and help anyways and talked to the office manager because she too seemed shocked at how all this got dealt with. This man should not be delivering babies. I wouldn’t wish my worst enemy go to this clinic."
