Very nice facility. The staff is friendly and several offices/specialties are at this location. We love our PCP and don't dread going to appointments. 🙂 Decent amount of parking available, plus valet. There's a little cafe on the first floor, too. If you have an occasion to be at this location, you'll likely be in good hands.

It has been a long time since I wrote this review. We have been through a pandemic and all the trauma that brought to health care, and my opinion of the facility has only grown higher. It is still an outstanding operation. As we know this area has a high number of elderly residents, and this is a place that understands that population.

During the pandemic the staff generally keep their services sharp and available. Yes there were delays and it was a little harder to get an appointment, but everyone kept going and working and they were heros that were there for us. I know some of our neighbors had difficulty getting appointments or COVID treatment at other providers. Thank You Eisenhower for all you did.
This is a state of the art medical center offering a range of services to the East end of the Coachella Valley. It is much smaller that the sprawling Eisenhower campus in Rancho Mirage and often refers patients to there but basic services are available in this modern facility. Doctors, labs, basic imaging, woman’s health and physical rehab are all provided.

Parking is convenient and covered spaces are often available a real bonus on the summer. The staff it’s extremely accommodating, and there is even a small snack bar with Starbucks and sandwiches of good quality.

There are doctors available under Eisenhower’s 360 program that includes email communication with the doctors. Their online system is very good and reminders and appointments are easily available online.

The building is clean and comfortable with a receptionist on duty as you walk in always offering help. They even have an urgent care available.

I was absolutely disgusted by the state of the bathrooms at Eisenhower Argyros Health Center. They were filthy—trash overflowing, floors sticky, and an unbearable stench. For a healthcare facility, this is completely unacceptable. It’s shocking that a place focused on health and wellness would allow such unsanitary conditions. Clearly, cleanliness is not a priority here. I wouldn’t recommend this facility to anyone until they seriously address these issues.

I’ve been a patient here for the four years I’ve been living in the CV. The healthcare here gets worse every time I visit. On my last visit, the resident doctor said he didn’t understand thyroid issues so he couldn’t refill my meds but will refer me to an endocrinologist. Then he said he couldn’t refill my medication for arthritis because he didn’t understand arthritis either so he referred me to a rheumatologist who can’t see me until the day before Christmas. I’m sure when the date nears, they’ll cancel. I’ve had that happen many times with their supposed specialists. . He said he is specializing in sports medicine. If that’s so, why was he assigned to a 68-year old woman? Absolutely pathetic! It was a waste of my time and now I need to get into another primary care physician so they can refill meds I’ve been taking for 20 years. BTW, it was Dr. Rochin. He also lied on the notes from my visit. I am not overweight and have a BMI of between 23 and 24, but his notes say he spoke to me about losing weight to help with cholesterol. He also said that I have a sedentary lifestyle which is also untrue. I told him that I work out every day, walk a few miles and spend a lot of time gardening, etc. I wouldn’t recommend this man unless you want to have hereditary issues falsely blamed on lifestyle.

This family health center does not care one bit about your health. All they want is to find a way charge you and your insurance company more money. Took family in for once a year physical/check up. Been an existing patient here for 5 years. Have seen 4 different DR's and they are a training ground for med students. Made the mistake of answering DR Fazli's questions during my physical and they in turn decided to count these answers as a diagnostic and I was forced to pay out of pocket expenses that were not covered under Ins Policy's once a year physical/check up. Talked to billing regarding a little bit of confusion, the person I spoke to was absolutely rude. Said it was a new DR and that because it was our first time seeing that DR, it counted as a new DR visit and they said the billing was correct. So, apparently it's Patients fault that they have a revolving door of student DR's. I guess DR's at this office don't have access to my in-house records. 3 different DR's in 3 years.
Will never step foot in this place again. Heard "The Roggin Report" mention something on the evening news about this place as well.
Here's my recommendation, find a DR at a private practice. One that will be there next year when you go back. Having to see a new face every year only for them to charge you money is a absurd. Shameful DR office this is.
They do not care about your health. If I could give it zero stars, I would. 5 members in my family all used to go here, none of us will be back. Sounds like a good business model to me.

Appointment for fasting blood work was at 8:30. Still no service by 9:30. Im diabetic and feeling loopy so had to leave. I explained this to them and they just stared at me. Gave them the med bracelet back and left.

This Physical Therapy Dept. is highly recommended! Steve Norton was my PT and he is the one I recommend for massage treatment. I never realized that therapeutic massage could alleviate neck and shoulder tightness and deep pain! And Mr. Norton has the best skill. I had 4 different PTs.
Also, I want to give receptionist Gracie Perez a 5 star review. Her position requires patience, competence and friendliness. She exceeds in all areas.

I want to make it very clear that I was a patient at this facility for the last eight years and this place is a revolving door for resident training and all the time that I had to go there for any medical treatment that I never saw the same doctor . Its impossible to develop any kind of relationship with a doctor for continuing care. Getting referral for other specialist is a joke . I was refed to some of the poorest qualified doctors I have ever had to deal with. Do yourself some research before getting involve this place
