From our very first appointment, he treated my mother with genuine kindness, respect, and empathy during one of the most difficult times in our family's life. He always took the time to explain every test result, treatment option, and next step in a way that was clear and reassuring. He never made us feel rushed and always answered our questions with patience and honesty. His expertise gave us confidence, and his calm, caring approach gave us hope. Throughout my mother's chemotherapy, Dr. Nasir closely monitored her progress and made sure she received the best possible care. We always felt that he truly cared about her as a person--not just as a patient. His attention to detail, professionalism, and commitment to doing what's best for his patients are truly exceptional. We are incredibly grateful for everything Dr. Nasir and his team have done for our family. If you or a loved one is facing cancer, I cannot recommend Dr. Nasir highly enough. He is not only an outstanding oncologist but also a wonderful human being. Thank you, Dr. Nasir, for your compassion, dedication, and the exceptional care you provide every single day. You have made a lasting difference in our lives.

Dr. Nassir is in a class entirely his own. I have never met a doctor like him…read more My husband has faced more medical challenges than most people experience in a lifetime--cardiac arrest, heart transplant, dialysis, kidney transplant, strokes, prostate cancer, parasitic infection, diabetic wounds, spine, rib, and tibia fractures and surgery, amputations... and that's just the short list. We've grateful to have been blessed with excellent medical care over the years, but we have never encountered a physician like Dr. Nassir. We were referred to him after more than 20 medical visits in a single month. My immunosuppressed husband had developed an aggressive squamous cell carcinoma that went from a tiny pimple to a 5 cm x 4 cm x 2 cm thick blackened, mushroom‑like mass on his right temple, extending under the skin to a large lump at his parotid gland and into the lymph nodes in his neck. After consultations at three premier medical centers, we were left with little hope. We were preparing to go home and make the best of what we thought would be his final days. At a last visit with my husband's long‑time primary care doctor--someone we trust implicitly--he told us, "Not all the best doctors are at the premier medical centers," and said he knew the best oncologist in the area. He texted Dr. Nassir, explained the situation, and Dr. Nassir told us to come in at 9 AM THE NEXT MORNING. Not in two weeks. Not when convenient. The next day. At that first visit, Dr. Nassir spent TWO FULL HOURS with us. He carefully reviewed my husband's extensive medical history and every test and consultation from the previous month. While we sat in his office, he called multiple physicians--including two who had already seen my husband and two nationally recognized experts. Every one of them picked up the phone. His assistant, Jose, worked seamlessly beside him, taking notes, pulling records, and preparing referrals in real time. What would normally take weeks happened in a single visit. By the end of that visit, Dr. Nassir had a clear plan: urgent surgery, followed by concurrent radiation and chemotherapy. For the first time in weeks, we felt the fog lift. We left knowing exactly what needed to happen and who needed to be involved--including a radiation oncologist who has since been repeatedly confirmed to be the best in his field. Throughout that visit, staff members quietly stepped in with urgent issues from other patients. Each time, Dr. Nassir gave them his full attention, then returned to us without missing a beat. The new‑patient paperwork had warned that wait times could be long. After that day, I knew I would never complain. If I ever wait to see him, it's because he is giving someone else the same life‑saving attention he gave us. Since that February appointment, my husband has undergone successful surgery and is now nearing the end of a seven‑week treatment plan--five days a week of radiation at Cedars‑Sinai and two days a week at Dr. Nassir's nearby Cancer Care Institute (chemotherapy, IV fluids, labs, and nurse practitioner consultations). He is doing well, and we are hopeful he will beat this cancer. At the very least, we now have more time--time for his two young grandchildren to truly know and remember their grandpa. The entire staff has been exceptional. * Sona, the office manager, knows us personally and creates a supportive environment. * Rosanna and Nana, the chemo nurses, are skilled and attentive. * Mark and Madeleine, the nurse practitioners, ensure every concern is addressed and reviewed with Dr. Nassir. * The front office team is constantly busy yet always available and kind. I would not hesitate for a moment to refer any friend or family member facing cancer to Dr. Nassir. He and his team are in the business of saving lives, and they do it with expertise, urgency, and extraordinary humanity.

Dr. Cohen is an exceptionally compassionate and caring physician. His expertise and depth of…read moreknowledge are evident, and he provides reassurance during what can be a very stressful and uncertain time. From my very first consultation through surgery and recovery, I always felt safe and confident in his care. He is meticulous in his surgical technique and takes every precaution to minimize scarring while achieving the best possible outcome. I also want to recognize Klarissa, who was incredibly kind, responsive, and supportive throughout the entire process. She made every interaction with the office seamless and reassuring.

Therefore, I can speak to the actual consultation, surgery and follow-up care. All the consultations, pre-op imaging, and labs were thorough and timely. He discussed options, the actual surgery, and possible complications weeks before I entered the OR for the actual procedure. I had questions about intra-operative monitoring of PTH levels. and anything that could go "sideways." He discussed each in detail so I would be clear going in. One year later, the scar has healed perfectly, my calcium levels are back to normal and I feel good. In the interim, I've had follow-ups and labs as required. In doing my own research, I found that parathryoidectomies have the best outcomes when performed by a surgeon who has extensive experience in that particular surgical niche. Dr. Cohen is that surgeon. In sum, I trusted Dr. Cohen and his team to take care of me and they delivered. Thanks Dr. Cohen and Team.

Sorry I have to leave a different review. Dr. Li performed my hysterectomy in September 2022. The…read moreonly good thing about him or his office was - he was able to use his connections to speed up the procedure since I needed it very urgent, and no-one else was available. This was the end of the good. I was super excited about the great review - patient, warm, personal. Unfortunately, from the very first moment of my surgery - everything went wrong. He rushed through my surgery and was so proud that he finished it in 1 hour and could go home. However, my vitals was consistently declining, despite the unneeded blood transfusion and hydration which Dr. Li prescribed me. Dr. Li and his team were upset that they had to come on weekend to check on me, as if I asked for this! After 3 days of declining, I finally convinced Dr. Li to send me to a CT scan, and they discovered that I have internal bleeding because Dr. Li didn't close some major spot inside. Obviously I had to go through additional surgery that night to stop the bleeding. And again Dr. Li and his staff attitude was like if they were annoyed with me, because he was supposed to be out of town and instead of that he had to fix my bleeding! I almost felt like apologizing. I left the hospital swollen with 20 lb of unnecessary liquid and bruises all over my body due to internal bleeding. I looked like I was beaten and tortured. It took me looong time to recover and get rid of the swollenness and bruises. I had nightmares for months that I am being drugged to another surgery. Dr. Li is NOT warm, NOT comforting, and NOT compassioned, the whole time in his treatment I felt like a victim of his huge EGO. His face is the last face you want to see before you go into surgery. It happened in September 2022, why do I write this review now? - Because I just started feeling a slight recovering, and I felt other women need to know my story. I thought I should've attached the photos the way I was dismissed from the hospital - but believe me they are too hard to watch.

His top notch associates (Dr. Bick and Dr. Selek) and his amazing staff (secretary, nurses, etc) at Synergy Hematology Oncology Medical, deserve mention as they play an important part in the terrific care of his patients. Dr. Kawana's knowledge of up to date cutting edge cancer treatments such at immunotherapy and Keytruda in particular has given our family and mom's friends hope that she can beat cancer without getting the more traditional and often more painful and problematic chemotherapy. Fighting Cancer can become a daily battle and has become one for us. Only by having the likes of Dr. Kawana, to essentially lead and/or work with a requisite team of doctors to fight this dreaded disease does one have a chance to fight Cancer. Dr. Kawana's extensive efforts to listen to his patients needs and work with the medical establishment has made it possible for mom to get the requisite treatment she needed to have a chance at extending her life after the surprise diagnosis of Cancer and the ensuing side effects (i.e. pain, loss of appetite, etc) of the treatments given to beat the Big C. If you, or one of your loved ones, who reads this review and gets diagnosed with Cancer and you find yourself in need of an Oncologist we strongly recommend that you seek out Dr. Kawana for a consult.
