My only regret is not finding Dr. Glaser and scheduling an appointment 13 years ago when my pain…read morestarted. I wasted time and money seeing multiple doctors, chiropractors, acupuncturist and even spent over 15K at Spinatomy in Van Nuys for my lower back and not ONE helped me with my pain. After I met with Dr. Glaser I knew I was in great hands. I explained to him what I was feeling and what would trigger my pain. He did an exam and immediately knew where the pain was coming from and what needed to be done. IT WAS MY NERVES! He advised for me to get 2 Medial Branch Blocks and if they were both successful then a Radiofrequency Ablation would need to be performed. I did all 3 and I feel amazing! I can say he is one of the few doctors that I trust with my medical care and that I would highly recommend to my family and friends or anyone seeking pain management. He hasn't gotten rid of me though because now I am starting migraine treatment with him. The office is beautiful. The moment you walk in you are greeted by the wonderful ladies at front desk. Huge thanks to Leslie for always squeezing me in and answering all of my questions and to Lisa for always making my check-in process easy. Nikita is amazing and friendly always making me feel calm while doing my medical intake (it would always cause me anxiety to discuss my medical problems). And Julie, she's at check out, super sweet and helpful when it comes to insurance questions and booking appts and procedures. The surgical center, hands down the best! From front desk to the nursing team, they are all super comforting. I had Sonia and Chelsea as my nurses and they always went above and beyond.

Extremely rude and disrespectful front desk staff. Instead of helping resolve the issue…read moreprofessionally, we were spoken to with attitude and told "we can argue until midnight."

I would recommend her and the staff to anybody who has a lot of pain on their back! Thank you Dr. Rahavard!! What have you got to lose, but pain!!! :)

We we're both told that she was only getting her neck done and that the procedure would only take an hour. Let's do the math we get here at 7am. They call her into the back at 8am. And remember 1 hour for the procedure. I've been waiting in the waiting room for over 5 hours. For a procedure that is only 1 hours long. And yes, after she went in at 8am I gave a grace period and ect. Once 10:30am- 11am. I went and asked what was taking a procedure that is only 1 hour long, what was going on. And they in formed me that she was barely starting the procedure, that was at 11am. What the fuck are these doctors doing. Won't recommend this place. They have no clue what they are doing and they lied to my mom saying that she was here to get not 1 but 2 procedure neck and back. And she was lied to when we got here. This place is a joke!

To describe Mr. Natanzi's lack of empathy, care, treatment plan and office experience in a few…read morewords wouldn't be enough. I was referred by an attorney on a lien after being in a major car accident, that wasn't due to anything I had control over. Upon meeting him i advised him of past experiences with opiates and my concern that was met with a standoffish stance from Naveed, only speaking my truth. I didn't ask for medication. After going through the motions on my end with epidurals with Naveed, I had a surgery at Tova with an outside surgeon. I was advised by my designated post surgery guardian that while in the waiting room, a conversation between Mr. Natanzi and the surgeon was clearly overheard. Which in accordance with HIPAA Privacy Rule (45 CFR 164.510(b) isn't legal. Mr. Natanzi was asked by the surgeon what he should prescribe me, to which Mr. Natanzi stated "Don't, he's a drug addict". Which was all heard from the waiting room in the lobby of Tova Surgical Center. A phone conversation was had between Mr. Natanzi and myself upon hearing of this which is vehemently denied ever occurring. Mr.Natanzi called back 20 minutes following the initial denial, apologizing saying he shouldn't have said the above statement. With that being said, this is 30 minutes upon leaving the center, post surgery. If anybody has a question, this should be all you need to see about the type of care expressed by Mr. Natanzi.

The professionalism, the care, the staying on top of appointments the courtesy of the nurses, the PAs and the medical care is at the highest and professional level. We personally have been in pain management for 25+ years and for over the last decade we have been with Universal pain management and their team. They treat us with respect. They treat our medical needs with sincerity and understanding, and they help facilitate ensuring receiving your appropriate and prescribed medication with the pharmacies. Universal pain management in our personal view is one of the top pain management medical organizations in Southern California importantly, they are honest they are honorable. They do not force improper procedures just to be done for financial gain as they care about the health and well-being of you individually. This has been our experience for over a decade and we appreciate it very much and with that we very much recommend Universal pain management their Sherman Oaks or Van Nuys Blvd. facility is the one that we use however, we have gone to other facilities that they have around the Southern California area as well , all of them are excellent and professional. thank you.

I wish I could tell you that Dr. Nevo was the first doctor I've ever had to see to help treat my…read morechronic pain, however, due to dozens of health conditions that I have, he is one of dozens of doctors I've seen in my endless need for any sort of relief. I can tell you unequivocally, Dr. Nevo is the most caring, kind, personable, and understanding doctors that I've ever seen. He has gone out of his way to learn about conditions that I have that he wasn't up-to-date on, so that he could treat me more effectively and unlike many doctors he is not only willing to admit if he doesn't know something, but he is willing to do the work to learn if it's within his scope of support. If something isn't within his scope of support, he is always happy and eager to offer a referral. Because of all my medical conditions and doctors appointments and treatments, I have CPTSD and one of the most amazing things about Dr. Nevo is that he not only treats your body, but also your mind. He understands how intricately linked physical pain and your mental state can be. Finding a doctor that takes into consideration and understands the mental turmoil that pain causes and how it relates to the physical aspect of things is very, very rare indeed. Because of my myriad health conditions, I know that I am not seeing Dr. Nevo for any sort of "cure" however I can tell you that he has provided me with a sense of medical security, peace of mind that I am in good hands and the knowledge that he will do everything in his power to help me find any sort of relief. I guess the long and short of it is, I can't recommend Dr. Nevo highly enough.

It was also determined that I had a torn hamstring & torn labrum. This was causing pain in my left hip area while I was still having pain in my right knee. At my first appointment with Dr. Nevo, he spent a lot of time to learn all about me & my health issues. I was very impressed with his knowledge & attention. Subsequent visits went equally well, I feel that he really cares about helping me to reduce my pain to have a more fulfilling life. After telling my primary care physician about my positive experienc with Dr. Nevo, I found out today that she has referred 2 patients to his practice. That says a lot!
