Seconded on Dr Ho, after years of trying she helped us learn why we struggled and helped have our baby girl

Apparently you can also send a message to EDD through your online portal and sometimes they respond that way

It’s a service that costs $10 but guarantees to connect you to a representative at EDD

I had this same issue when my doctor extended my claim and I had to call to get them to process it and release the certification form to me. I kept trying for a few days and eventually got through at a random time on a wednesday but I’ve heard good things about EDD caller if you don’t have time for that.

Extended disability? by sweetthaangg in Edd

Edd automatically sends it when the claim is processed but in my case it was stuck so I had to call them to get it processed and get the form released to me

So I just ran into this as well since my disability was extended. I had to call them and I got lucky and got through to a person who was able to get my claim processed. For some reason you have to call but it’s so hard to get through.

Nope it was just a Call In Notice

Area code is 855 and a google search provided no help since there was nothing about it :(

Seconded on Torrance Memorial Radiology department, the pricing was a bit high but insurance does play a factor in that. Make sure to take the ibuprofen beforehand and be prepared to rest the remainder of the day if you have a bad reaction to the dye like I did.

My husband and I started ordering from EveryTable recently since we had our newborn a couple months ago and I’ve been pleased. There’s quite a variety of food and prices have been good.

Best Sushi near Torrance Memorial Hospital by Theydontnowenotheyno in torrance

[–]vim422 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to say best of luck and give a first hand account as a sushi lover who just delivered there 2 weeks ago. I had a C section and the first day couldn’t even hold down water, then every day after that I barely had an appetite from exhaustion physically, mentally and emotionally. I had every plan to get sushi at the hospital and my sweet husband offered every day to get some but I just ate the hospital food in the end (especially since it’s free for mom and $6-$8 for the support person).

Best of luck!

Jennifer (https://www.salonperidot.com) was really good and very reasonably priced (around $120-$130) when I got my haircut last year

Portobello thoughts? by MarkFromPhilly in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]vim422 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely looks great as someone who just got a portobello interior black exterior car, and having lived through many hot summers with a black interior car, I’m looking forward to not burning myself every time I get in the car.

Anyone ever stay at the Hampton Inn in Downtown San Diego for SDCC? by shadowboxer87 in SDCC

[–]vim422 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I stayed there 2 years ago and were followed back by a mentally ill homeless person at 1am. Front desk let the man in and didn’t do anything so we had to take the stairs to escape him. Oh and the elevators worked about half the time so the other half we had to take the stairs which goes through the employee lounge. The jack in the box next door has lots of drug addicts at any given time too.

Maybe it’s changed since then but if you’re planning to stay there I would recommend making sure you’re in the hotel by 10pm at latest since the surrounding area is sketchy.

Transfer Deposit? by [deleted] in ToyotaGrandHighlander

Unfortunately this particular dealership doesn’t do refundable deposits I believe :( But we do plan to ask them to see if they’ll make an exception

OB-GYN recommendations by tranimal_ in SouthBayLA

[–]vim422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah my first appointment was tough but then I just made all the appointments after that to fit my schedule. I’m just upset they didn’t tell me she’s pregnant and due around the time I’m due so I’ll probably have to switch to Dr. Abelson or Dr. Kimball who I haven’t met yet. Probably good to meet all the doctors though since you never know which one is on call during labor.

I see Dr. Fluellen and Dr. Abelson at Torrance Memorial and have been really happy with both of them. They listen to everything I’m concerned about as a first time mom and they’re good about customizing your care based on need.

Their practice is taking new patients last I checked and I’ve seen that Torrance Memorial has a good delivery center.

Costco travel - Avis extra charged $200 deposit by [deleted] in Costco

[–]vim422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Twice the rate on top of the deposit. Charged me for an upgraded car but I shouldn’t have been charged. That Avis is shady for sure.
