Review for Dr. Sparks
This doctor rescheduled my appointments 4 times. I’m not even kidding. FOUR times! So disrespectful of my time and that I need to ask for time off work and have problems I need to be seen! Her personal life might be a mess but shouldn’t let that affect your patients!

Review for Dr. Weiss
Worked with her for over 14 years (and received care technically when I asked her to solve my ills over the years). She is the real deal!

I had no bruising, almost no pain, and the post care at Kaiser is...

Dr. Sparks has been my doctor for almost a decade and I couldn't be happier with her care. Her calmness and kindness put me at ease. I had a recent health scare and I am thankful that I could turn to a doctor I really trust to help me. She was there for me and got me an appointment with a...
