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.

Thank you
Always on time with appointments for me and my wife. Great communication. Procedures go smoothly. Office is organized. Highly recommend him.

Did NOT Have A Positive Experience
We had the complete opposite experience with Dr. Jalali compared to other positive reviews. We found him to be arrogant, defensive and impatient. Dr. Jalali spoke over us, he did not answer a single question, nor give a proper explanation on diagnosis or procedure. Even more concerning was that his after care notes did not accurately reflect what was spoken and took place bedside. We had him removed from our case at Saddleback Memorial.

Excellent colonoscopy
Made the procedure very easy. I have been told I have a difficult colon to navigate. He did the procedure smoothly, no pain, and very easy recovery. Removed several polyps. No after-effects. Updated me on results soon after. Would return to him.

Dr. Jalali is great. I contacted him for my mom’s complicated GI issues. He was very patient listening to our concerns. He also took his time explaining her condition, recommended a treatment plan & told us to call him back if there is any problem with her insurance approving a “ difficult to approve” drug. Professional & friendly doctor. I highly recommend him for anyone with GI issues.

Had an upper endoscopy performed by Dr. Jalali. Prior to the procedure, the doctor went over the process. On the day of the procedure, he came to my bedside to answer any questions I had about my symptoms. Very easy to talk to him.
