### 2/5 — Used to be good, now records missing and difficult to navigate

*2026-04-14, version 9.0.0*

This app used to be good. But I am getting on and seeing a lot of appointments I attended now are listed as “missed” and the records have completely disappeared.

### 1/5 — Confused care

*2026-03-03, version 8.0.0*

I have been in this hospital for almost 2 days. I feel like my care teams get less caring each day. I have no idea who to talk to. I literally hate it here

### 1/5 — Biopsy

*2026-02-23, version 8.0.0*

Cedars is the worst. They told me I have a concerning area and are trying to give me a biopsy a month 1/2 out.  this is not acceptable. I have called and left 6 messages with zero return calls. Please book me elsewhere like UCLA as this is crazy. I am very upset

### 1/5 — Forced download is not ok

*2026-02-22, version 8.0.0*

In no way is forcing app use a good look for any company. Not being able to access personal medical information without downloading your app is unacceptable. Rethink this Cedars!

### 5/5 — Family

*2026-02-14, version 8.0.0*

I've been watched over with what is truly loving care for the last 25 years by this my medical family here at Cedars and Tower Oncology  
(Especially Dr. Barry Rosenbloom and Nurse Lena, and Dr. Zakowski.) Thank you one and all from the bottom of my heart today on Valentines Day🧡

### 5/5 — FANTASTIC

*2026-02-04, version 8.0.0*

I LOVE THE DOCTORS, NURSES AND RECEPTIONISTS THEY ARE ALL SO FRIENDLY. THEY TAKE THERE TIME TO LISTEN TO YOU. THE NURSE MAKES SURE YOU ATE COMFORTABLE. Thank you!!

### 5/5 — Cedars Sanai care

*2026-02-02, version 8.0.0*

Cedars Sanai is in my concerted opinion the best hospital that I’ve been to, not only for me but also for my whole family. We are so fortunate to live in the area serviced by this wonderful hospital. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Angels of care

*2026-01-21, version 8.0.0*

Cedars has provided my care for decades. The care has been above just service. Care is excellent. I refer all my friends. They always put patient care above all. 2 years ago when I lost my home and fell on hard times they gave me care anyway giving me a hardship. All my copays were covered by them. I the person was more important than the profit margin.

### 5/5 — A truly impressive, cutting-edge app.

*2026-01-18, version 7.1.3*

Now, I will mention from the start that I lack any experience with other healthcare-focused apps, so my opinion of CS Link is based solely on my use of it alone, however I have been so impressed with the abundance of features and the general ease of use throughout my time in the application that I can’t really imagine how other alternatives or competitors might be doing a better job. 

It is incredibly easy to get anything you need done accomplished within a very short time, whether that is scheduling an appointment, viewing records or lab results, virtual video healthcare visits with providers or messaging your doctor — it all just works. You can connect the app to an external monitoring device like an Apple Watch to sync the records of any bodily functions you may be monitoring. You can easily view and download your entire medical history records which is super helpful for insurance purposes as well. 

Kudos to the developers for doing such a good job, especially when these sorts of location/company specific apps tend to be very basic or poorly designed.

### 1/5 — Not patient friendly

*2026-01-03, version 7.1.1*

I beyond disappointed with this hospital. As a paying patient I’ve asked for details on my bill and they are unwilling to offer clarity. Shame on them.

### 1/5 — Won’t shut down

*2026-09-09, version 10.2.0*

When I log out this app keeps logging me in. It’s been doing this for a few months now. When are you going to fix it. Or, how can I stop this?

### 1/5 — The world’s worst app

*2026-08-05, version 9.4.1*

You would think that a medical app that gets billions of dollars a year would be able to develop and design a half decent app that allows people to actually sign in. Whoever developed this app needs to be fired immediately.

### 1/5 — Recent Update

*2026-08-01, version 9.4.0*

App no longer works on my device because Apple doesn’t provide system updates beyond 17.7.11. We should not be required to get a new mobile device to use the most recent version. 

If I don’t readily have internet access, I am unable to visit the website as suggested to other user comments.

### 1/5 — App Will Not Open

*2026-07-25, version 9.4.0*

This App was updated yesterday ( 7/24/26) for minor bug fixes. App will not open now.

### 1/5 — Update?

*2026-07-25, version 9.4.0*

As of today, the AP is not working.

### 1/5 — Recent update fail

*2026-07-25, version 9.4.0*

App will no longer open since most recent update. Please fix!

### 1/5 — Not a good app

*2026-06-11, version 9.1.0*

There’s no direct numbers for your Drs in the app so if you change an appt it’s impossible .
On top of this the ENT  Dept only has an answering service day and night and no one from the dept can be reached and they don’t call you back . I tried 4 times .
Not sure what the purpose is if this app as it does nothing !

### 1/5 — Worst app EVER

*2026-05-04, version 9.0.0*

The doctors assistants don’t get most of the messages, so you end up having to call and wait on hold for an hour to reach someone which is what the app was supposed to help you AVOID. They introduce scheduling telehealth with random doctors but not your own which is why I wait endlessly on hold with another co Cedars bought and ruined so badly, my doctor chose to retire.

### 1/5 — I received a text about an appointment.

*2026-04-15, version 9.0.0*

I pressed 1 as I get texts all the time to confirm.   Well this one said 1 to decline.  Ridiculous

### 1/5 — Forced download is not ok

*2026-03-04, version 8.0.0*

In no way is forcing app use a good look for any company. Not being able to access personal medical information without downloading your app is unacceptable. Rethink this Cedars!

Update. I received a developer response saying they don’t require the app. This is just not accurate.  If you search for Cedar’s and then click on the sign in option on an Apple device it forces you to the App Store instead of the login page. App redirects should not exist

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-08-27, version 9.4.1*

Keeping track of all of your test results, numbers, lab work, billing and medications all in a one stop shop vibe is the business.

### 5/5 — Great hospital!!!

*2026-08-19, version 9.4.1*

Cedars Sinai Hospital is great!! Every physician has been very good - with excellent follow up from each medical discipline. I have seen several Cedars physicians and I had an excellent experience. Patient care was great while I was inpatient. All my follow ups and interactions with physicians has been first class. I will always return to Cedars Sinai Hospital!

### 5/5 — Excellent care

*2026-07-31, version 9.4.1*

From
the reception desk who welcomed me with a smile ,to the lab / phlebotomy staff  who are skilled in “drawing “an unpleasant experience to a not-so- ouchy  one , to the nurse who took my vital signs before being seen by Dr. Chang , you were consistently exceptional !  Dr. Chang ,I am eternally grateful to you  for saving my life . And last but not least to Rena Casarez who made it possible for me to get my CT scan in a timely fashion , thank you !

### 5/5 — Excellent care

*2026-06-30, version 9.3.0*

Brenda Diaz has stepped up in Dr. Chu’s office to provide excellent client communication over this past year. She’s very responsible, responsive willing to solve problems. Call people reach out and get back to me follow up. Let’s recognize her excellence and her dedication to her patient and to the doctors with whom she works.

I’d also like to recognize Dr. Vivian Chu an excellent endocrinologist and pharmacist she’s basically kept my mother alive and well over the past year.

Dr. John and (Derm) was nothing short of a medical wizard. He cleared up my mother‘s psoriasis. We’re very grateful to him. He educated us about any potential side effects thank God which she had none.

Dr. Stibleman has been an excellent Podiatrist and taking good care of my mother’s feet and provide provided excellent service for her.

Dr Matthew Sayre is one of the best Primary Care Physician’s. We’ve had the privilege to work with. excellent in his knowledge and in his ability to listen and really value patients and communicate clearly and with compassion we’re very grateful for him.

### 5/5 — Video Visit

*2026-06-24, version 9.2.0*

Dr Harris was thorough and delightful.  A great way to efficiently review records with MD and seek guidance.  Issue was overseas travel and appropriate strategies for recommended Meds and RX.

### 5/5 — Address

*2026-06-01, version 9.0.1*

I see multiple addresses for me and I don’t know how to change the home address where I live everywhere on the app

### 5/5 — Love Cs Link

*2026-05-20, version 9.0.1*

I find when trying to message doctors, they are not all on my list. You should have a search bar to find one that’s not listed like a telephone directory so you can send messages to my doctors that aren’t on my
List. Also although I have no new messages, a red dot is always there indicating that I do. Please remove. I have achieved all messages. Please address. It’s irritating. 
Thank you
Laurie

### 5/5 — Loving CS link

*2026-05-19, version 9.0.1*

I absolutely love using the CS link. I joined CS about 5 months ago and for the first time I have found all my health information in one place available to all my medical team. This app takes the burden off of me to keep track of all information and carry them to various medical providers. This is truly fantastic site and very easy to navigate and contact the medical staff. I am very pleased. Thanks

### 5/5 — Wonderful people

*2026-05-19, version 9.0.1*

Everyone I have dealt with at Cedars has been warm, comforting and knowledgeable.  Thank you so much for being so caring.

### 5/5 — We love Cedars!

*2026-04-02, version 8.0.1*

It hasn’t been a perfect journey, but the team at Cedars, from the billing department to the physicians, have done so much for us! We are forever grateful for you all
