Review summary

Pros: Telemedicine is convenient with quick access and capable, compassionate doctors; can be faster and enable quick prescriptions. Cons: App reliability and usability problems; long waits or no-shows; poor follow-up and inter-app coordination; limited in-app messaging and scheduling/cancellation friction; policy constraints can limit testing. Overall, there is value in remote care, but experiences vary due to tech issues, workflow gaps, and inconsistent care coordination; improvements in UI, connectivity, and follow-up processes are needed.
Pros
  • Telemedicine visits are convenient and time-saving, with quick or same-day access.
  • Some physicians are highly competent, compassionate, and explain things clearly.
  • The service can be faster and more accessible than in-person visits (short waits, weekend availability).
  • In some cases, patients can get prescriptions/medications promptly after the visit.
Cons
  • Frequent app usability and reliability issues (video cuts out, crashes, not user-friendly, sync problems).
  • Long or unpredictable wait times and instances of doctors not showing up or connecting to the call.
  • Poor follow-up and communication (lack of follow-up on test results, rushed or dismissive interactions).
  • Weak integration with Cedars-Sinai apps and lack of in-app messaging (hard to find follow-up forms, multiple apps needed, difficult cancellation).
  • Policy or workflow constraints hinder care (doctors cannot order certain tests; inconsistent care across visits).

2026-03-06 Fa***** Based on what the doctor said, looks like the doctors face some limitations and policy restrictions for the web visit. He said he can't order any blood test or mucus cuture or chest X-Ray because of the policy despite my insisting and emphasizing on the serious chance of bacterial infection. Waste of time and money.

2026-02-10 re***** The doctors are terrific, but the app is not so much. They tell me to follow up with forms that I cannot find in the app. It’s hard to follow up with specific doctors. Why can’t they simply have a messaging system like iMessage? Why do we have to use the app when it doesn’t have a proper message system?

2026-01-21 sm***** It took me two days and hours of my time getting an appointment and then…THE SCREEN FROZE. I’ve been dizzy for months and cannot get seen by an “appropriate” doctor through the horrific CS APP and the no-good “Patient Advocacy” joke — the ONLY way to complain about mal service, which itself is MAL, and doesn’t care about us patients!
