Dr. Pimstone was actually my mother's primary care physician for many years. My mother really liked him. I accompanied her to some of her appointments, and not only is Dr. Pimstone an excellent doctor, he really cares about his patients. My mother recently passed away from cancer, and the morning after her passing, Dr. Pimstone called me to offer his condolences, which was so very thoughtful.

Full review on yelp, but simple fact is this guy is the best (my wife thinks so too). Caring, sharp, takes the time to get to know you and answer questions, shoot the breeze and actually is interested in your care! Staff is top notch with good and attentive nurses and techs. Came over from another physician in old UCLA MDR practice, and glad we did!

Dr. Pimstone is the most thorough doctor I've had with a a great bedside manner. I never feel rushed, he answers all of my questions and is just so so kind. He is also my husband's doctor who has been with him for about 10 years, having followed him from the Marina area. I was so impressed by his thoroughness, follow up calls, just about everything, that I wanted him to be my doctor too, so I switched and have been with him for about 4 yrs. now.

A kind, caring doctor with a wonderful bedside manner. To me it's important that my doctor return my phonecalls promptly. I know it's only a few minutes out of their busy day, but since Dr. Pimstone is unbelievably thorough and quick to call me back, it shows me how much he cares.
