    I'm a new patient with epilepsy and so far he seems attentive, doesn't rush, lets you talk and answers any questions you have.

    Dr. Yegiaian, If…read moreonly you had responded to the many messages we left for you regarding questions on medication you had prescribed for my husband as quickly as you responded to our family's review of your practice on YELP. Then I'm sure we wouldn't be writing this review in the first place. Why would you say we've never visited your office, we had been seeing you for almost 2 years, and thought our family had some type of patient-doctor relationship with you. I'm not sure why you would ask for my husband to announce his name-----is that not a HIPAA violation? No other families leaving a review for you have listed their family member's name, it's a matter of privacy. We traveled from our home on the Westside to see you because of a referral from another neurologist. Just please do better at calling back families that have placed their trust in you. Especially when we leave a message that their loved one under your medical guidance has been hospitalized and we've left you multiple messages over the span of a couple weeks.

    I've been a patient of Dr. Yegiaian for over 10 years, and she is truly exceptional. My case is…read morecomplex and took years to fully understand, but she never dismissed my symptoms or tried to force them into a simple explanation. She listens, thinks, and treats you as a whole person. I've never felt rushed in her care, even when things were complicated. Because she stayed with my case, I now have an accurate diagnosis. That kind of persistence and attention is rare, and it has made a meaningful difference in my life.

    Dr. Philip Girard is not initially warm, I'll give you that. I came in with some concerning (to me)…read morebehavior. He was a little abrupt to point out what I was experiencing was not in line with the disease I was concerned about. I then pointed out that the best way to get my questions answered was to go to the doctor and that my one rule with my health anxiety is "If you can't trust the doctor, your anxiety will consume you." After I mentioned that, he asked me questions and performed the exams I was hoping. He then told me to save my money as more testing would prove that I was fine. Definitely a straight shooter, and not for the faint of heart. Knows what he's talking about though and was comforting once I broke through the shell. Also the staff were incredible. I called and asked if there were any cancellations and they said they'd call me back after they did all their follow ups. THEY ACTUALLY CALLED and got me in a week earlier. So many specialists are really impacted and hard to meet with. I'm so thankful for the staff.

    I am extremely disappointed with the way my mother's appointment was handled by this office…read more My mom is an established patient of Dr. Philip Girard and had a follow-up neurology appointment scheduled for today at 11:00 AM. At 9:36 AM just over an hour before her appointment, we received a call informing us that the appointment was being canceled because Dr. Girard was no longer accepting patients. At that point, an Uber was already scheduled to pick up my mom because it takes approximately an hour to get to the office. I had also rearranged my own appointments and schedule so I could accompany her to her medical appointment. I immediately told the staff that I needed to cancel the Uber and would call back to reschedule. When I called back, I was then told that Dr. Girard had already retired. My biggest concern is not simply that the doctor retired, but that an established patient with a scheduled follow-up appointment was not notified until less than two hours before the appointment. When I asked why we weren't informed sooner, the only response I received was a brief "sorry." There was no explanation, acknowledgment of the inconvenience, or effort to help with the transition to another neurologist. Medical appointments require planning, especially for older patients who may need transportation and family assistance. Patients deserve timely communication when there are changes to their care or their physician's availability. I understand that doctors retire and circumstances change, but the way this was communicated or rather, not communicated was extremely frustrating and disappointing. A simple phone call ahead of time could have saved my mom and our family a lot of unnecessary stress and inconvenience.

    Dr. Shahinian was great. Everything else about this experience was awful. tldr - they are very…read moredifficult to reach over the phone, and they didn't send my clinical notes to the doctor they referred me to. They are very difficult to get on the phone, and they stopped paying their answering service. So any time they didn't pick my calls (most of the time) I was unable to leave a message with anyone. I eventually had to go into the office myself to talk with the staff directly. They referred me to a specialist, told me they would send my clinical notes to that specialist, and then didn't do that. And when I was actually able to reach them on the phone, they said "they don't proactively send clinical notes" - even when they referred me to someone else! Then, they told me they sent the notes, but the destination (USC) never got it, despite multiple attempts. Again, this was the doctor THEY referred me to - and they didn't send my clinical notes without asking, and were unable to send them even when asked. What a nightmare. Avoid.

    THE WORSE place to be a patient. My husband was a patient but has now change. HORRIBLE,…read moreunprofessional front desk staff.... IF you can even get through to speak with them. CURT, uncaring, disorganized.....always stating they are short staffed as an excuse for the last year he was in their care. DO NOT WASTE YOUR VALUABLE TIME IN THEIR HANDS! Even if you are referred to this practice, you will be equally frustrated with their processes. I wish there were a ZERO star option.
