If I could give the ENTIRE STAFF at the AIS Cancer Center on Chester Avenue, (right across from Quest Imaging) a 50 star rating of excellence, compassion, humor, and professionalism, I most assuredly would. Dr. Francesca Hoehne, Medical Director of the Breast Center - is outrageously incredible and beyond reproach...even though she says she is not. I use the term "beyond reproach" because Dr. Hoehne is forthright, easy to talk to, listens to you (even though you don't know what the hell you're talking about)...and loves what she does. Have you ever heard of an accomplished breast surgeon, medical director with "FACS" say to you that most people think she's crazy? Have you? NOW, that is, in my book - HONEST, BEYOND REPROACH. SHE'S ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE.How fortunate I am to have her as my doctor, and any other woman in this town who sees her, her associates, and staff at the Adventist Health AIS Cancer Center. They all got it "GOIN' ON!" Thank you all ever so much for everything.

Absolutely the best cancer care and many other issues! Wish I had gone here many years ago. Went to AIS first in early 2020 and saw the greatest Hematologists. Waited a very short time. Took about 15 minutes approximately to talk to the most intelligent Hematologist, he listened intently to every word I expressed. I was absolutely impressed with my understanding of what we discussed! I followed his information and did all the necessary test. He accomplished me getting my hearing back and diagnosis me spot on!My diagnosis was finally diagnosed after nearly 50 years of going to many different Physicians with great knowledge. Please go here first if you have any hard to find immune system issues or cancer.God Bless every single Physician, Hematologists, the amazing staff, the amazing receptionist! They are all perfectionist. Always try to calm you. AIS is so clean, efficient, and reliable. God Bless all of you there! thank you for everything!

We spent six months at a local cancer center on Truxtun Extension in Bakersfield and were so disappointed we were prepared to seek help out of town. Within that six months we only saw our actual doctor twice!!! The rest of the time we saw medical assistants. I could go on but why waste my breath..Adventist Health was wonderful...in comparison it was like heaven as opposed to hell.It is clean and very comforting. The public areas do not remind you that you are in a medical facility. The staff is friendly, efficient and compassionate. The doctors really do listen to the patient and are willing to find alternatives for treatment if necessary or desired by the patient. We were really impressed that we saw the doctor each and every visit and he always had a stenographer or whatever they['re called these days, to input all the details of the visit as they were happening.If you or someone you know, has the misfortune of having to fight cancer, Adventist Health should be a must before considering going out of town.

I brought someone here for outpatient surgery to remove a gallbladder. This place is awesome! The reception staff, nurses and doctors were all very pleasant. They have a screen in the waiting room to let you know every step of the way while you wait for the patient to come out. I can't remember the exact words they had on the screen but you knew exactly what time the patient was received , when they went into surgery, and when they were in recovery, it was very helpful. The quality of everything here was top notch.

Unfortunately when coming here it's not for anything good. But this also houses an outpatient surgery center that is what I've come here for. This check in as for my minor foot surgery that my podiatrist does his surgeries here. The pre/op nurses are always very friendly and I've had great experience with them. I also get my epidural injections here too. The nurses seem to get my IV in the first time without any pain. That's a plus!! This is a new facility and it's very clean and nice the OR's from the quick glance I get before they knock me out look really sparse and clean. Not like the ones at the hospital. Man those look always messy and junky. The waiting room is nice and with a television for your drivers viewing pleasure. When you check in they have you sit over in seats on the side so it is somewhat private, so you don't have to air all your private info to the whole room.
