Mihaela Balica, M.D

The doctor treated me as a whole person, meaning she was concerned with my life in general, not just medically. She immediately apologized for being late due to an emergency. She was thoughtful about what tests I may need In the near future. She gave me a good physical exam.

This was my first time with my new PCP and I could not be more pleased. I am extremely happy with my choice to move over to Providence.

Dr Balica is a good listener. I anticipate a lasting relationship.

This was my first visit with Dr Balica. She was thorough and thoughtful.

I did have Dr. Blank as my PCP, she retired so Dr. Balica took over this year, and she is very good.

The doctor was great.

Dr Baleeka was really great. The doctor really took her time talking to me and was incredibly responsive to my needs with my medical situation. The doctor went far beyond what I am used to and investigated available referrals for targeted care. She was truly thoughtful and resourceful. I appreciate her.

First time seeing Dr. Balica As my previous doctor recently retired. I really liked Dr Balica and will definitely be returning and referring others to her practice.

The doctor was very nice. She was great during our appointment. However, she never followed up on my prescription, even though she told me during the visit she would approve it as soon as we completed our Zoom meeting.

All good. I'm new to this office! Thanks!

The best

Great team!

My regular MD left the practice BUT my new MD is wonderful and I'm so thankful that she is my new doc. Good listener. Great vibe. Happy customer. Thank you

I was properly attended to. I'm new in Santa Monica. That was my first hospital visit and I was encouraged to come back whenever I have any medical issue.

Very caring

This is the first time I saw this provider. My long time (20 year) primary care physician had just retired and I needed to see someone asap for a medical problem. Obviously the doctor did not know me as well as my former physician, but I thought the experience was good on the whole.

Dr. Mihaela R. Balica is perhaps the best doctor I have ever had. She is knowledgeable, patient and very emphatic.

This was my first meeting with my new internist and I look forward to having Her as my physician

This is first time I have seen Dr. Mihaela Balica. She was great; like her a lot. Would definately see her again. I was very happy that I had the chance to meet her.Originally saw her because my doctor was not in that day. Dr. Balica was a pleasure to meet and to talk with. Her caring and belief in highly personalized service was evident when I saw her. As I said above, I liked her A Lot.

Not my regular doctor, but she accommodated me very quickly since I was not feeling well.

This Dr. Was such an incredible find! I left feeling so supported and heard. I feel tremendously lucky to have found her.

I liked her. She was very efficient, very pleasant, knowledgeable and articulate.

This was my first visit with Dr. Balica since my previous provider retired. She was really nice, attentive, concerned, and informed. I'm very happy she's joined the practice

Dr and team friendly and thorough

I received attention to a variety of subjects in this first visit

Happy I have her as my new doctor

I missed my original appointment that day, and Dr Parks and the admin staff went out of their way to make sure I still got in by the end of the day. It really showed how they care about their patients. I have already recommended Dr. Parks to more than one friend because I feel so confident in her abilities as a doctor, both clinically and with her reassuring bedside manner.

I returned to this practice after 20+ years since we moved back to California from Chicago. They saw us through pregnancy and delivery of our first two children, and I'm happy to say the practice is as good as always.

Dr Parks is very kind and listens carefully & is both respectful and responds well and clearly to any questions or concerns. I am always very impressed with her professionalism while being friendly and approachable. My only critique would be that I waited for 30+ minutes in the exam room for her to arrive and then spent less than 10 minutes being seen. I understand it was a busy day in the office & wait times do happen - the care just felt a bit rushed in this particular visit.

Excellent care

Dr. Parks was thorough, attentive, and reassuring. Thank you!

Dr Parks listened to my concerns and treated me with respect.

They were very helpful in scheduling my appointment and Dr. Parks was so kind and so nice and really wanted to help me.

Dr Parks was super kind, knowledgeable and proficient with my medical needs during my last visit. I would highly recommend her.

My experience with Dr. Parks has been excellent.

I was very impressed by how quickly Dr. Parks came in - virtually no waiting and that was so appreciated. She was very efficient yet I didn't feel rushed. I also was very pleased that the office validated parking!

Dr. Parks is my new GYN. I am extremely happy with her. She is competent, compassionate, helpful, & listened well to all my concerns.

Dr. Parks was excellent

Dr. Parks is very good at the gynecological exam--it's not uncomfortable (or as comfortable as it possible could be). She also explains what is happening Iand what she is doing) during the entire exam.

I've referred friends to Dr. Parks because she is so caring and has excellent bedside manner. She's also very sharp and I trust her judgment as a practitioner.

I had a great experience with this provider and am excited to have her on as my new regular provider

I was sad my regular Obstetrician retired but happy now with Dr. Parks and her Team.

We got new insurance this year and after having the same doctor for 12 years I was worried but this office, the doctor and everyone I felt with was lovely, helpful and happy that I feel comfortable to continue with this office and doctor

Dr C. Parks is very caring, attentive & knowledgeable.

Very friendly, thorough, attentive, helpful!

She is great. All good!

Dr. Parks and all the staff were on top of what my appointments were about. They always got me in quickly and always had any information ready and waiting for me.

I am happy with this doctor ! Sweet and understanding

Dr C Parks is an outstanding, professional gynecologist. I like the process that she sat and saw me first & we reviewed my issues & medical record before the exam. She explained exactly what she was doing. She was very patient & did not rush the appointment. I'd recommend her to my family and friends. Excellent care!! Thank you

Dr. Parks is very present in the exam room with me and I know she's hearing me
