If anyone has a workplace injury and needs care, I recommend going to see Dr. Mora. I felt bad…read morebecause I was in a bad mood in two visits - but I want to emphasize that it was not because of him. Rather, it was the circumstances which led me here. Long story short, I had shoulder tendinitis due to overuse. He was very caring, informative, and referred me to physical therapy. He was also very patient as I described the details of how I got injured. He even gave me a much needed work restriction along with exercises while I healed. Thank you again for helping me get better

Dr Mora is an outstanding doctor but getting his nurse out scheduling assistant to call you back to…read moremake an actual appointment is awful. My wife has left 3 messages and even left a message on the patient portal and still no call. She is in horrible pain from her shoulder and can't get someone to call her back to make an appointment or even pick up the phone. This is now the 2nd time this has happened to her with Dr Mora staff. About a year ago she need to be seen for her knee and get an MRI and never got the call back from the assistant, she had to reach out to Dr Mora on social media to get him to help her get scheduled. That was ridiculous. She loves Dr Mora because he is a great doctor but his assistant definitely brings that rating down. Any kind of acknowledgement for her (yamilet) if thats her name would be appreciated so that we know you have gotten the message and will be in touch.

It's not the doctor's fault but they should offer a discount or ticket validation. Back to the doctor. I don't feel like he actually listens to the patient. It's all about getting you in and out as quickly as possible. It feels like he sees 20+ patients in less than 10 minutes. My last visit was like a whirlwind. This is actually my second time having surgery with this doctor. I think he is good at his actual physical job. However, things get missed when you move so fast. I heard he was possibly retiring maybe he's trying to close up loose ends? I didn't get to discuss some of my concerns at all. Maybe at the next follow up it will be better. I think joint surgery is a huge industry. Get you in and out as fast as possible.

I recently had surgery at Hoag Orthopedic Institute Surgery Center in Orange, and overall my…read moreexperience was excellent thanks to the amazing medical team. The doctors were skilled, attentive, and genuinely caring -- I felt completely safe in their hands. A very special thank you to Jen B, who was nothing short of extraordinary. She treated me with genuine compassion and understanding from start to finish. Jen took the time to learn about my sensory sensitivities and made thoughtful adjustments so I could feel calm and comfortable throughout my care. She also took into account past trauma I've experienced and made sure that nothing about my procedure or recovery would be triggering. Her empathy, professionalism, and gentle reassurance made all the difference. Jen is the kind of nurse who truly changes lives -- I will never forget her kindness. I also want to mention Yuri, the receptionist who checked me in. She was polite, professional, and very pleasant -- a great first impression at check-in. Unfortunately, the experience at discharge was very different. The receptionist seated on the right side of the front desk was extremely rude and dismissive to my mom when she came to pick me up after surgery. Her tone and attitude were completely uncalled for, and it was upsetting after such compassionate care from everyone else. Even my seven-year-old daughter, who was with my mom, noticed and asked why that lady was being rude -- and that says a lot. When a child can recognize disrespect in a medical setting, it's clear there's a serious issue. In short: * Medical team: Excellent. * Jen B: Outstanding -- trauma-informed, kind, and deeply empathetic. * Yuri (check-in): Friendly and professional. * Front desk (right-side receptionist): Rude and unprofessional; absolutely needs attention. If management addresses the front desk behavior, this would easily be a 5-star facility. The care itself -- especially from Jen and the doctors -- deserves nothing less

When I was in a state of anxiety and trying to see as many doctors as possible to get different…read moreopinions, I found Dr. Melikian at DISC. I had generally good experiences with doctors I had seen there in the past. He is more of a spine specialist, focusing on the neck and back. When I came in, I was having issues with both my neck and shoulders. After looking at my neck X-rays and MRIs, he noted that my shoulders were likely the bigger issue at the time. I could move my neck up and down without too much trouble, but my shoulders had difficulty rotating. Despite that, he was able to refer me to another DISC doctor, Dr. Shore. More importantly, I never felt like I was being rushed out the door, unlike many doctors who seem to just want to get patients in and out for a paycheck. In fact, toward the end of my appointment, he made sure I did not have any more questions before we parted. To me, that is a sign of a doctor who actually cares, which feels surprisingly rare given the number of doctors I have seen over the last several years. While he was great, I also have to give a special shoutout to his assistant, Joanna. She might be one of the best doctor's assistants I have seen. The assistants I have known generally get a good idea of what is going on and log your symptoms so the doctor can look at you more efficiently, but Joanna went above and beyond. She did more than a typical assistant would by checking the multiple issues I was having, including rotator tests, hand-grip strength, shoulder rotation, and various sensitive points. Similar to Dr. Melikian, I felt like she genuinely cared about what was going on and wanted to make sure I was receiving the right treatment. She was the first person to make me realize that I needed to focus more on my shoulder. Of course, she still told the doctor about everything just in case, but it says something when an assistant does more thorough checks than some actual MDs I have seen. It also says something that, even though I did not receive treatment from Dr. Melikian and he ultimately referred me elsewhere, he was one of the few doctors who was very assertive about making sure I scheduled a follow-up appointment. Even when I was in a rush to leave, his assistant reached out and emailed me to schedule an appointment, making sure I was okay with it. That is the sign of a doctor who really cares. Overall, in a weird way, I am kind of sad that my issues were not more related to my neck, since both Dr. Melikian and his assistant, Joanna, were great. Based on the reviews I have seen on Yelp and Google, many people seem to have had similarly positive experiences. If your issues are more related to your neck or back, I would consider getting an opinion from Dr. Melikian.

This was my second surgery after a microdisectomy had gone wrong with a different doctor 10 years ago. I highly recommend this surgeon. Not only is he caring but is a fantastic surgeon. The entire staff was wonderful and easy to get a hold of. My only regret is not to have found this wonderful human being earlier. Good job to this clean facility and all of the staff. And one more note to add, the X-ray facility across the street is also a 10 out of 10.
