"I rarely write reviews, but I feel compelled to warn others about Lake Balboa Care Facility. My experience here has been beyond disappointing—it was heartbreaking and infuriating.
(1) False Promises About Room Placement
I called in advance and was explicitly assured that my loved one would be placed in a two-person room. When we arrived, she was shoved into the far corner... Read More

"The PT dept here is stellar. My therapy is mostly with Mike and Claire and I couldn't ask for better. Also this place is really, really clean. Amazingly so. The concierge, Brenda, is a real gem and takes great pains to listen to the patients and address our complaints with the owners or administration. Unfortunately her reports seem to fall on deaf ears. We've been thru at... Read More

We are sorry Denise your friend did not get the care you and her were expecting. However much of this information is incorrect or highly distorted. We never advertise we are perfect (no one is) but we are responsive. And for this patient much of our time was spent responding to all the many “concerns” presented during her stay. After her dc from the facility we received her referral multiple times to be readmitted which we declined as not being able to meet her needs. We take that she wanted to come back as a very positive sign. Thank you.
