Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Condescending and unprofessional
Told my mother if she wanted the surgery 4 other specialists have recommended he would only do it if she begged. Said if she got to the point of being suicidal then he would do it reluctantly. Recommended seeing a nerve specialist and when I asked for a recommendation for a nerve specialist he switched and said he wasn’t sure if it would really help. Denied further treatment based on a “gut feeling” but told us to “check in” with his office again in 3-6 months. Said he “didn’t agree” with the provided MRI results and that he knows better because “I’m a surgeon and I don’t think you would benefit.”

I was living in hell with the pain I had on my back and left foot, got a laminectomy discectomy procedure done by Dr. Asgarzadie back in December 2020, and boy what a relief! Right after the surgery I noticed the pain was gone on my left foot completely! Dr Asgarzadie is very polite and professional, answered all my questions. Am thankful that I came across him!

With apologies for the delay in putting this up, I've been meaning to write a positive review for Dr. A. since my surgery on 04/09/18. From the time I consulted with him regarding my condition, he took an interest, followed up with my pain mgmt dr, and answered questions in a humble and thoughtful manner. His follow up after surgery was also exemplary. BTW the surgery itself was a total success; the sciatic pain I had is gone. Thank you Dr. A.

Dr. Asgarzadie is the only reason I stayed with Kaiser for an additional year. He is the BEST surgeon. He is kind, humble, smart and has an AMAZING bedside manner. He put my family and I at ease when I was going into surgery and during my post surgery care he always had a smile and remembered me even though he's super busy.
