As a veteran lupus warrior, my life revolves around doctors, and I have to say that Guilda Sarraf…read moreis one of the most stellar doctors I have ever known-ever, for several years now. She even catches a whole lot of things that the other specialists overlook, constantly. I know how ponderous and cumbersome reading reviews can get, but please know that Dr. Sarraf is the real deal. Her knowledge is fantastic and she knows how to relate her cardiology profession to the other interdisciplinary professions, thereby helping alleviate my symptoms. Since lupus attacks everything, this is incumbent. As a most recent example, she caught something that a primary care physician did wrong. PCP said my cholesterol was 'high', but Dr Sarraf said to completely disregard the lab values because the doctor "forgot" to have me fasting before drawing the labs. Simple things like that so many professionals carelessly miss! But not Dr. Sarraf! For once, at least I know I can relax a little knowing that this doctor will take care of me, not to mention her level of professionalism. Dr. Sarraf can be away on vacation, but she will still call me back the same day, and oftentimes right away! She is exceedingly accommodating, at the very least. I recommend Dr. Sarraf with no reservation. Keep up the great work! *Important: Regarding the online presence: Thankfully Dr Sarraf is excluded from this but regarding other offices, you must beware and take heed: **Review sites and doctors corroborate together to silence the consumer even more: When doctors pay Healthgrades, Vitals, etc. for a premium subscription, or just give them money in general, bribes, etc., as usual and as one example, they allow for doctors to hide 3 or more reviews that they arbitrarily dislike. Again, this is just one unethical tactic out of many they use. As a result, I truly applaud all those consumers who muster up the courage to write a review that is both truthful and that addresses the concerns of that doctor and its facility. There is always at least some validity in the negative reviews that are getting pummeled by bribes and bots and solicitations to get more positive reviews. Telling the truth is harder than choosing the path of least resistance and 'going with the flow'. Make no mistake about it, these providers are very savvy, so do not fall for all their deceitfulness. (Again, Dr. Sarraf excluded from here). Be wise and notice the slew of positive reviews- because they are being solicited constantly during and after appointments, to write five stars and people want to be welcomed into their office and would rather not voice the truths. In summary, I recommend Dr. Sarraf with no reservation. But please scrutinize other offices. Keep up the great work!

This treatment plan proved to be very effective and have continued to be monitored to be sure I am on track. As far as I am concerned, Dr. Wong saved my fat life. Dr. Wong is ahead of curve. He studied lipids related to heart disease before anyone else back in the 80's. I have tried treadmill testing, Plague review, Ultrasound tests, fat density testing and recently took a Calcium Plague test at UCLA medical center with a zero score, which is the best score to have.

He is a fabulous doctor and given my considerable perspective I wanted to finally share this review. Dr. Eshaghian has the perfect temperament for practicing medicine. He is a very attentive listener and observer. Having world-class knowledge in his field, he also possesses superior judgment in knowing when to intervene and when to simply keep an eye on things. His office always operates extremely effectively and professionally, I can't say enough good things about them either. And I can't count the times other doctors in the Cedars-Sinai system, without any prompting from me, have commented on what a first-rate doctor they believe Dr. Eshaghian is. I would recommend him without reservation to any patient seeking the highest level of care.

I recently had surgery and had to have pre-ops tests and exams completed ahead of the procedure. My…read moreprimary care physician decided that I would need to have clearance from a cardiologist before they would clear me for surgery. However, surgery was just one week away! I contacted the office of a cardiologist who I had seen a few years ago and really liked to see if I could get an appointment. The office said that since it had been over three years since I had seen the doctor, I would be considered a new patient, and it would be a five month wait until I could get an appointment. What?!? I got in touch with my surgeon's office, and they referred me to Dr. Shervin Eshaghian at Beverly Hills Cardiology. Although the office is not close to where I live, I was desperate to find someone that could see me. I called the office on a Thursday afternoon and was helped by Amy. She was able to offer an appointment on Monday morning! I was very thankful that they would be able to fit me at such a last minute. The offices are located in Century City. The parking structure was very crowded, and I would recommend arriving at least 20 minutes ahead of an appointment to have time to park and get to the office. There is valet available and the valet attendants were very nice, and they worked very hard to accommodate everyone. The appointment went very well and everyone that I encountered was professional and great to work with. Evelyn A. took care of taking my vitals prior to seeing the doctor and she was very personable and made me feel very comfortable. Shortly after seeing her, Dr. Eshaghian started the exam. He learned about all the details of my upcoming surgery and was able to set me up with an echocardiogram on the spot. Chris conducted the echocardiogram and explained everything that was going on with the test. I have never had an echocardiographer provide so much information while having the test. When all was said and done, I was cleared for the surgery three days later. I was in the hospital for four nights. Each day, Dr. Eshaghian stopped by to check in on me, which I truly appreciated. He is very caring and going forward, I will gladly drive the extra distance to remain one of his patients.

My family member has been a patient of Dr. Bagheri's for over three years now after he had…read morequadruple bypass surgery. Dr. Bagheri is very knowledgeable and is very thorough with his patients. When my family member was brought to the Emergency Department for a different cardiac issue Dr. Bagheri came the same evening to evaluate him and helped properly diagnose and treat him for his issues. When my family member first met Dr. Bagheri he was in a wheelchair due to being so weak from the surgeries he experienced. If it were not for Dr. Bagheri's due diligence I do not believe his heart would have gotten stronger. As of today he is out of the wheelchair and walks with a cane and we know a big part of that is because of Dr. Bagheri. I am not sure what Dr. Bagheri would do without Rosine and Mary who work at the Front Desk. Any time we need a procedure or test scheduled Mary and Rosine are very prompt returning and answering our calls. They treat us with compassion and dignity if we have any doubts or questions about treatments and medications. Unlike other doctor offices we have been to they do not ignore us when we wait in the waiting room and try to make our visit as comfortable as possible. They wear many hats at the office and make sure that Dr. Bagheri's patients are connected to the best resources and make time for us in case there is a concern that we can only address with Dr. Bagheri. They both care not only about their patients' wellbeing but Dr. Bagheri's and have restructured the office to make it safer for patients during COVID-19. They are a strong team who make time for their patients and would recommend them to every potential and future patient who need a Cardiologist.

I had brought it up to my primary physician, and he referred me to this office. Went in this morning around 9:30am, and was nicely greeted by their office staff, especially one of their receptionists by the name of Powel. Made this appointment like a month and a half ago with Dr. Koshkaryan. While waiting inside their clean waiting room, it didn't even take 20 minutes for one of their assistants to call me in. She took my vitals and asked me to wait inside the exam room for the doctor to come in. Dr. Koshkaryan came inside the exam room in 10 minutes and did an ultrasound and EKG on me on the spot. Results along with blood work will be available within 24-48 hours. Prior to my visit, they had asked me to provide them with some blood work that I had recently done at UCLA. So it was still new. If the blood work is done over 6 months to a year, you need to do new blood work. The office along with the waiting room and the exam room was spotless clean. They have couple of restrooms inside their office and in the lobby. Don't know much about parking, since I parked on the street. They take cash, most insurances are welcome, and also take credit cards. Thank you staff and Dr. Koshkaryan. He was very gentle, soft spoken, kind and helpful. Also very knowledgeable. Highly recommend this doctor along with his office staff. Wants to see me in a month for a follow up visit..

My grandmother was recently hospitalized after two syncope episodes and was explicitly instructed to see her cardiologist immediately after discharge. Despite clearly explaining the urgency, we were told the soonest appointment was February 18. Shortly after, we were offered a Friday appointment for the same week, only to be told that the appointment was suddenly no longer available. This type of disorganization and poor communication is unacceptable, especially following a hospitalization for syncope. Jackie's handling of this situation showed a lack of professionalism and urgency that put unnecessary stress on our family during a critical time. Dr. Koshkaryan deserves a far better support staff.

While I can't speak for other patients' experiences of their care, I'm doubtful we are getting the complete story. I'm very satisfied with the service and care I received from Dr. Jacobi. He was thorough but also low pressure. I never once felt like I was rushed during each appointment. He gave me a chance to ask all the questions I wanted to ask. I know I was probably annoying, but I'm all about early intervention if I feel something is off. Communication with his administrative staff was fabulous. Very courteous and flexible. Quick responses. Again, I'm a bit perplexed by the negative reviews on here. I'm sorry, but I disagree.

I understand that doctors need to be compensated for their work, but my insurance company has sent the checks. I have documentation that the checks were sent. I have explained the insurance company's procedure to the office manager and encouraged her to call the insurance company to confirm the checks were forthcoming. Giving me 30 minutes to deal with it before my appointment is unprofessional and, frankly, rude. Additionally, the office manager was not in the office and was unavailable by phone to address the issue. My appointment has been canceled, everyone is aggravated, and I need to find a new cardiologist because I refuse to deal with incompetent front office staff.

I have been seeing Dr. Bhatia for many years and have always found him to be a great doctor…read more Unfortunately, this review is not about him personally but about the office as a whole. Over the past couple of years, the quality of service has gone downhill dramatically. It has become nearly impossible to get medications refilled in a timely manner. I've gone without my prescriptions multiple times--despite both myself and my pharmacy repeatedly contacting the office. This has even led to withdrawal symptoms due to their lack of response. At the same time, the office has introduced a "concierge service," which essentially means charging patients additional fees on top of already rising insurance premiums--yet the level of care and responsiveness has only gotten worse. Even Dr. Bhatia now seems more rushed and less attentive during visits. The front desk staff, unfortunately, are also extremely unhelpful and often rude. It's frustrating to deal with people who clearly don't want to be there or assist patients in any meaningful way. I'm truly disappointed to see a once-great practice decline so much. I hope the office takes this feedback seriously and makes real improvements.
