Dr. Valery P Shulman, MD

Don’t go there. Terrible experience

I’m a new patient and this office offers phone appointments during covid! I only needed to come in person for the first appointment, after that they switched me to phone. So helpful!

Stay away from this Doctor if you value your health! The only way I can get my prescriptions filled is by calling the office 3 times and most of the time I have to show up there! Last week I tried seeing him as a walk in telling the very rude office assistants who barely speak English that I was suffocating on my saliva, he refused to see me and prescribed a antibiotic I went to the pharmacy in the same office building and asked the pharmacist if this quack of a Dr was going senile and he nodded yes and told me to check out his Yelp reviews, their awful! Do not see this Dr.! The only person who is professional and helpful is Mariana.

Who ever gives V. Shulman medical license??? He is not a doctor.

This so-called "Doctor" has wasted EIGHT years of my life. For 8 years under the care of V. Shulman I developed a number of systemic diseases due to the absence of proper diagnoses, the absence of procedures, absence of proper blood test, etc. in my case. In 2013, I had very bad skin swelling. Without treatment, the disease my body starts developing can lead to death in a short amount of time. While I was in a very bad condition V. Shulman said: "You ate something", "It's an allergy", "You're still young", "You look good." I demanded that he send me to an appropriate specialist. After countless wrong referrals from Shulman's office, more times was wasted without any diagnoses. Thankfully, I was eventually able to get a doctor who agreed to do Shulman's job. Finally, ANOTHER doctor correctly diagnosed and correctly treated my illness. My patience with the doctor completely came to an end when I recently began to explain to Dr. Shulman my symptoms which included passing out… several times, a general dizziness and 42 more symptoms. Since I didn't call 911 and was helped by relatives to return my consciousness in a couple of minutes, V. Shulman accused me of lying. For the records, I'm receiving disability confirmed by numbers of CA Medical Board Certified doctors (V. Shulman is NOT Board Certified and can't be considered an expert). Shulman's comments "look good equals feel good" doesn't apply to my case.THAT WAS TOO MUCH! That episode 100% can question V. Shulman' professional ethics and mental stage. Shulman's patients' lab results have always been "excellent", even if some elements are out of range. When you start asking what type of test he plans to set up for your specific symptoms, chances are you'll find NO answers. He is testing the basic panel ONLY. Why? 1. He does not know what to check. 2. He does not know how to read your result and rely on comments from the laboratory (which is general, not individual !!!) 3. If some items are out of range, the doctor still considers your result "EXCELLENT" because the doctor has ZERO knowledge what, for example, high levels of bad cholesterol with low glucose level are sighs for. 4. If you have out of range elements in your blood test result, a normal doctor should schedule an additional ( more detailed) test to see what is wrong.This is not the case with V. Shulman. He doesn't care about his patients at all! V. Shulman cannot provide any proper treatment because of a lack of knowledge. If you need help to improve your health, ( not aggravate your health) DO NOT GO to his office. I am DONE! If you experience same mistreatments, you SHOULD NOTIFY your insurance( it can be made confidentially) by simply calling and letting them know what is going on in doctor V. Shulman’ office.

He has NO knowledge on what symptoms are related to what illnesses. Wrong diagnosis or absence of proper diagnosis. He will give you medication with out confirmed verification from blood/ any testing. You will be lucky, if the doctor made right guesses. On top, he is not a Board Certified, but act and pretend that he is. Be careful.

Awesome doctor!

As long as you don't need a prescription filled or to see a doctor, then Valery Shulman is great. Prescriptions do not get responded to. At this point I honestly have to switch doctors because I can't get two prescriptions filled? This is just unprofessional. Don't prescribe medication if you don't want to respond to the pharmacies request to fill them.

First class treatment from a doctor who genuinely cares about his patients and who jam in as many appointments as he possibly can. Excellent experience. Will be staying with this practitioner forever.
