DO NOT go to see Dr. Christos Howard unless youve got hours to spend waiting & waiting & waiting. Not only does his office take an average of 15 minutes just to answer the phone to book an appointment or ask a question, you will sit in the waiting room for no less than an hour before he sees you. Im not the only one complaining here folks. He does the same thing to my adult son who sees him as well and other patients Ive spoken to in the lobby. I had an appointment to see him to go over my blood results back on May 5th 2017. After waiting for 55 minutes for him in the exam room, I finally got up and left. He had spent the last 10 minutes jawjacking with a father and son about football and Oingo Boingo outside the door that I said "enough is enough". I walked out and told him he was being disrespectful of my time and Im leaving for another doctor appointment which was scheduled for 11:30 across the street. I decided to give him another shot when I needed a referral to see a specialist. They scheduled me for July 28th 2017, the first appointment of his day. I get a call 2 days prior saying he has to cancel my appointment as he had to leave for the day and wouldnt be returning for the rest of the week. I rescheduled for August 11th 2017. Then, just as Im just getting off the freeway to his office, I get a call from his nurse saying he didnt come in today and I need to reschedule. I absolutely blew a gasket!!! What kind of profession are they operating there? I continued on to walk into the office and demanded they hand over my medical records and Im not leaving until I get them. Within 10 minutes of filling out the release form I was out the door. Do yourself a favor and find another doctor who doesnt spend precious time disrespecting patients and causing your blood pressure to boil over.

Without a doubt Dr. Christos Howard is one of the finest Doctors you would ever want for your family Dr. this man saved my life from type 2 diabetes had a sugar level of 450 and had know idea found out from a blood test done at work Disney advised me to see a doctor my daughter suggested her Doctor. He told me with know hesitation that I was a walking time bomb If I had not been treated for this I could of had a stroke, heart attack at anytime. I have to say if you had to wait for your appt. It was because he was taking very could care of another person and you would certainly want him to do the same for you. He is considered a part of our family and would suggest if you want a good Dr. you would be thrilled to have him take care of you. I want to say today my weight is down 60 pounds my sugar levels are normal and I feel could. Thank you Doc, OJ and I appreciate you very much.

Dr. Howards office Staff is wonderful they are patient and caring and best of all fast they get things done in a timely fashion. Dr. Howard is a great doctor he is always on time no waiting an hour passed your appointment and if for some reason he is late someone will come in and let you know he is running late and how long it will be. He is really caring and spends the time to listen to whats going on and works with you to make a plan of action to fix whatever the problem. He is also GREAT with Kids. My kids love going to the doctor because he is funny and makes their appointments fun and not at all scary for the kids also he lets me that parent know what he is doing in a way that i can understand and again works with me for the best treatment plan for me and our family. The office is also clean and comfortable. I cant say enough good things about Dr. Howard and his office.

The only regret that I have with Dr. Howard is that I didnt find him sooner. On my first visit he literally saved my life. He sent me to a cardiologist, who quickly sent me to the emergency room where I received a pacemaker. I instantly felt better than I had in years. He is a down to earth real person who talks to you with respect. He has "street cred" due to the fact that he was a paramedic prior to graduating from an outstanding school of medicine. He stays current by attending numerous seminars around the country. He has recently addressed other medical concerns of mine in a highly professional manner. I highly recommend Dr. Howard.

This man is incredible. Hes very down to earth, doesnt talk over you or AT you. Loves what he does and hes very good at it. Can explain the technical side of things if thats what you want, but is far better at everyday examples that help you deal with whatever ails you. His favorite saying for me is "every day on this side of the dirt is a good day"! Very professional and makes you feel secure in that your health is being monitored. Hes someone whos opinions are to be trusted. A rare find in todays world of busyness!

Dr. Howard really is a great guy, unfortunately the last few times i tried to make an apt. I ended up going to urgent care because he was booked for weeks. I was experiencing dizziness and a difficult time walking and was told he could see me in two weeks. WOW that seems a bit harsh to me. I will be looking for another doctor, it is sad that health care has come to this.

I had to wait over an hour after my appointment time and someone sent my prescription to the wrong pharmacy. I will never go back to this doctors office.
