    My doctor was amazing. We only had 20 min and a number of questions to cover - it was very efficient!
    Aug 29, 2024

    May 25, 2024
    Care provider fail to let me know steps to take after I asked for a referral. Also ignored my leg pain and had to go to a chiropractic instead.
    May 16, 2024
    She was not prepared. I indicated in my schedule appointment the purpose of the consultation. I informed the UCSF personnel who called me before the consultation what the purposes of this. I felt that there was no quality and I did not gain anything from this. This was a complete waste of my time.
    May 15, 2024
    Dr. Vincent is the ABSOLUTE BEST! She keeps me informed and interested about my health. She listens to me really well and takes time to explain things to me. I hope she gets even more opportunities to teach trainees.
    May 08, 2024
    Does not respond to messages on MyChart. Also does not create "After Visit Summary" that I can access on MyCharts. I get just "A patient contact encounter was created on your behalf. This contact was for a limited aspect of your care. Any orders placed during this encounter are listed below"
    May 04, 2024
    Outstanding Doctor, knowledgeable and caring.

    Nov 22, 2023
    It is now 24 hours since my appt and I still have not received my after visit summary which was supposed to include instructions about how to take my medication as well as instructions to get a test done. I sent the doctor a message this morning as well and still no response.

    I have recommended this provider (Dr. J. Vincent) to a colleague of mine. She is an exemplary physician; careful and professional, listens well, informed of medical science, offers suggestions, works well with me as a patient. Is pleasant, kind, and compassionate.
    Sep 17, 2023
    Did not ask questions about my medical history and did not perform a physical exam until prompted to do so.
    Sep 14, 2023

    Aug 15, 2023
    Doctor and both nurses did an amazing job
    Aug 15, 2023
    I have a very detailed description of all my symptoms and a recent experience with a panic attack I had never had in the past. The doctor never once made eye contact. She only stared at the computer. She showed zero sympathy for how terrified I was. It was like pulling teeth to get any information out of her. I asked question after question about how to rectify the situation. Those questions were met with one or two word answers that were not helpful. Shared with her what I had already been doing and got zero feedback if I was on the right track. I actually felt judgement coming from the doctor. It was hands down the worst experience I've ever had with a medical professional.
    Aug 02, 2023
    Dr Vincent is very thorough and listens to my inquiries, or concerns and addresses each.
    Jul 30, 2023
    Dr Vincent explains very well and clearly the reasons supporting a course of action
    Jul 27, 2023
    It was our first meeting and was to "establish care", She had read my medical history and was prepared and pleasant, and made me glad I have become her primary care patient.
    Jul 05, 2023
    Dr Vincent is very caring and understanding. She listened very attentively to every thing I was concerned about and clarified those things I wasn't sure of. She was Interested In what I said and we were able to converse In an understanding way. I appreciate her concern. I am happy to be under her care.
    Jun 24, 2023
    Dr is very professional, caring and completely all ears to what you tell her. Great start !
    Jun 19, 2023
    She's nice , and professional, concerned , gave suggestions to help heal better.
    Jun 15, 2023
    She listened to me, didn't rush and gave me a referral for a request I had but I was surprised that she didn't listen to my heart or lungs. She didn't look in my nose or mouth. Actually, I wasn't touched by this doctor.
    Jun 10, 2023
    Great doctor!
    Jun 06, 2023
    I find Dr Vincent excellent!
    May 27, 2023
    I have already recommend Dr Vincent to several friends. She is exactly what I look for in a car provider. Knowledgeable, direct, efficient and pleasant. My experience was excellent in all respects.
    May 26, 2023
    I'm very grateful to be in the care of Dr. Vincent. She is kind and efficient and provides good solutions to presented problems
    May 25, 2023
    Dr Vincent is the best PCP I have ever had.
    May 25, 2023
    Listens and discusses
    May 25, 2023
    The provider (or their office, which to me is the same thing) accepted this appointment knowing they would not be able to help me and that I would need to be seen in person by a specialist. I know this because that was the first sentence the provider spoke to me during the visit! As a result, I lost a full day of not receiving care for the issue I was experiencing. On top of that, I'm probably going to be billed an exorbitant amount of money and will need to start a several month process of going back and forth between the provider and my insurance, just like last time
    May 14, 2023
    First time appointment with this provider. Follow-up scheduled!
    May 06, 2023
    Great physician, caring, highly knowledgeable. Accurately anticipated probable cause of my severe illness, and ordered (arranged for) necessary tests immediately. Very scientific approach in diagnosis.
    May 04, 2023
    Unfortunately my provider seemed very rushed and a bit impatient with my description of my current symptoms (total face to face care time was less than 10 minutes, after a 45 minute wait on my end). I was talked over or interrupted a few times. Two of the three medications they prescribed me were ones I was already taking, so I don't feel confident that the medical advice given Is useful. I was the one to ask about follow up options.
    May 03, 2023
    I win the lottery with getting Dr.Vincent as my PCP.
    May 02, 2023
    Didn't initiate to ask me to obtain previous medical records from prior PCP. Didn't ask me questions about my health. Mostly I asked questions.
    Apr 30, 2023
    Dr Vincent was professional and informative of my recent illness.
    Apr 28, 2023
    Other than immediately solving my health matter (out of our control :) ), the team addressed everything possible.
    Apr 14, 2023
    My provider listened to me and a suggestion I had for further care, but her explanation lead me down a different path, one that was completely understood and made more sense.
    Apr 04, 2023
    She seemed very rush to do my annual physical exam and did not seem to really check me out except for breathing exercise and hardly really looked in my ears. We did talk about my health issues but she talked pretty fast. Also the doctor did not tell me I needed to come back for a follow up in a month. The assistant told me.
    Mar 30, 2023
    Nicely concerned Doctor and Intern Doctor!
    Mar 30, 2023
    It is possible that Dr. Jyotsna Vincent Singh was rushed with too many patients. She was not unfriendly, but she was not very friendly either.
    Mar 29, 2023
    Dr. Jyotsna Vincent was excellent and could not ask for more. She made me comfortable as if I have known her for a long time. Ask question on my health, medication, history and concerns. In addition ask about family history looking for correlation ship. Recommended for lab tests and I have not done so for a while, and provided me with medication. I can not find words to thank her enough for her professionalism, empathy, sincerity and caring. As I have come across different doctors at UCSF I can say I am blessed to be in good hands under their care, as all doctors have been caring for me in every possible way, for what I have gone through. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.
    Mar 25, 2023
    The PCP didn't know why I was there and didn't ask. This led to them misunderstanding my questions. I pointed that out, but the provider didn't listen or ask for clarification.
    Mar 11, 2023
    5 minute appointment.
    Mar 11, 2023
    This was a visit with my PCP, whom I have seen three or four times, including recently. She should have familiarity with my medical issues, which include a complicated lung condition (over four years) and various gi concerns. It surprised me that she didn't bring any of these experiences into the conversation -- which was about fatigue and whether an anti-depressant could be useful in any way. She was knowledgeable about anti-depressants, but it did not feel like a caring visit. I have had other much more positive experiences at UCSF.
    Mar 04, 2023
    I appreciate the time Dr. Vincent dedicated to my appointment, including discussing an issue that was not the main reason for my visit. Dr. Vincent is attentive professional and does not make you feel rushed which is so appreciated. Given the various constraints she is likely faced with in serving all of her clients.
    Mar 02, 2023
    There are very good service
    Mar 01, 2023
    Dr Vincent was very caring and I liked her right away. She was cheerful and listened to everything I and my daughter asked. I feltSafe in her care and confident that I would receive the kind of care I have been sestching for.
    Feb 19, 2023
    Dr. Vincent listened to my concerns & acted Immediately on an action plan.
    Feb 17, 2023
    Dr Vincent truly listened to my concerns and fears. With gentle cajoling she was able to help me relax and accept additional test referrals
