Kaiser Permanente Antioch Medical Center

Dr. Dorton is truly the best doctor I’ve had during my time with Kaiser. From the very first appointment, her tone, professionalism, and the way she communicates made me feel comfortable and respected. As an African-American woman, it means so much to feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood by my doctor. She doesn’t rush through appointments or dismiss concerns. Instead, she takes the time to listen carefully, explain options clearly, and make sure I understand everything before moving forward. I never feel like she is pushing her own agenda — she focuses on what I need and what I want for my health. That kind of partnership in care is rare and deeply appreciated. I’ve been through a few doctors before finding her, and she is the first one who truly makes me feel valued as a patient a

Would like to share my experience here. My grandmother was here last week and the staff were very helpful and attentive. There was this nurse who helped us very much (Nurse Marc C). Our assigned doctor was very hands on and explained to us the procedure, Over all very commendable service. Thank you for your service.

My experience was very pleasant. It was my first, so there was a bit of anxiety and apprehension. The staff were all very warm and welcoming. There was a balanced mix of light-hearted humor and care that made me very comfortable and feel that I was in great hands. The gentleman in the rolling workstation was hilarious, and the Nurse's and medical assistant were so pleasant and attended to my concerns. My Dr. was very direct but at the same time very comforting. Top notch care!

I was very much nervous, when I went for Endoscopy. But, all staffs were very kind,and patients with me. Well organized teamwork. All staffs created a positive energy. They could find out my exact health issues. Thank you for all gastrointestinal teams.

The procedure was quick (routine colonoscopy), completely painless and the nurses/doctor all did a great job of alleviating any anxiety I had by explaining the process. I was out and on my way home literally 90 minutes after we parked. Test came back all good and I got one of the best 30-45 minute naps of my life. I was even allowed to bring headphones so I could listen to my own relaxing music.
