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!

From what I've heard & researched, he is a well known surgical cardiologist specializing in 100% blocked arteries. He can clear them up! I find this amazing. We were lucky enough to get an appointment with this Doctor the following month & was scheduled for Monday, May 13th. We came very early because we wanted to avoid traffic & although we were an hour & a half early to the appointment, the doctor saw him right away. The staff was very nice about the fact we drove from Oxnard. The doctor was kind & professional. He told us exactly what he could do & was confident he could clear up my Dad's blockages. As the appointment ended he told us they would schedule my Dad's surgery right away, so it was scheduled for Friday, May 31st. There was some scheduling confusion & they sent a letter in error about rescheduling his follow up appointment for after the surgery, & we assumed it was the surgery. The wording said, "We regret to inform you that we need to reschedule your hospital visit..." So if you happen to get a letter like that, call the office right away. My Dad's surgery was rescheduled for July 12th at 8am & we were requested to check him in to the hospital 6am. Although it was a long, hard day of waiting, my Dad's surgery has been a success! 1 blockage was cleared, 1 got a stent & the other they couldn't do anything to for the time being. The staff was so nice & professional. They show concern for their patients & their families. I love the fact that the patients get a tracking number & on the various screens you can check the status of your loved ones on the screen without violating HIPPA. HIGHLY RECOMMEND TORRANCE MEMORIAL!

I was sent to "Cardiologist" Dr. Nadia Curran for clearance to have vascular surgery to fix my Anurisum (She too is also an exceptional Dr. 10*'s for her too). Seems I have "Aortic Stenosis" which I was not aware of and it could be a possible issue. I was mixed up & nervous about the Anurisum surgery an thinking remarks/results were about the "narrowing" of those veins when (I googled for a little more info) I saw it was narrowing of heart valve which I admit spun my wheels a bit?which then made me feel I needed to speak to Heart Surgeon to explain more in depth as I interpreted the issue was the Anurisum not an additional issue. Which is why I'm doing THIS Review and my request for a 2nd Opinion (seeing a "Cardiac Surgeon") I called Dr. Curran office around closing on a Friday and explained my confusion, she herself returned my call 1rst thing that following Monday morning. Answered my questions & understanding my concerns to speak to a Surgeon (Dr Healy whom she would reccomend) as she is not a Surgeon herself. He would explain that particular issue and the procedure to fix it but he did not feel it needs to be done as of yet? I brought my hubby along this time for that 2nd set of earssince I Was feeling scared & not able to comprehend the two seperate issues. Dr. Healy was awesome (another 10*'s for him also) and I'm extremely grateful I got a very quick appointment with him (the next day) he was sooo patient & absolutely took the time to listen to my concerns.

I like her and she's very knowledgeable. I assumed Dr. Roberts had retired, but her name is still in the portal. It would have been professional for Optum to let her patients know what's going on. I called to see about a possible same day appointment. I was usually able to get one or at least one for the next day. This was extremely helpful when something unexpected came up that wasn't an urgent care issue. If I went to urgent care, they would eventually say "see your primary ASAP." My appointment is three weeks away. I was shocked that I didn't talk to the office directly, but to someone at a call center somewhere. Optum, can I call the office directly?

I came seeking help and answers about my situation, but I felt judged and dismissed. The doctor told me, "I don't think you're wanting to do better," which felt accusatory rather than supportive. She was In a hurry. When I mentioned that I might receive better and added services to figure out what is going on , with a PPO plan, the response was "possibly," which made me concerned that my insurance could affect the care I receive. I was there for a 9 a.m. follow-up appointment but waited approximately 45 minutes in the room. The communication and scheduling were not acceptable to me, and I will not be returning. Frankly, wasted my time that now I am starting over and with my PPO, elsewhere! Before my first appt. Took for ever no one called. After almost 2 months from referral time that it took a medical assistant who passes by there in her way to work to pass by and see what's going on. That alone, was my hesitance to even starting to go there but I gave the benefit of the doubt. Now, you see the latest. I don't leave reviews often, this needed one. I do not need a response because I had made up my mind that very last day on 7/2026, as I walked out the room-- I had a sensitive situation going on with no true answers, still happening, a year later.
