    Best neurological care I ever had. His assistant, Naz, was awesome. He was my doctor from 1994 until 2013 when I moved out of state.

    There is no better doctor than Dr. Kowell. And, his staff is just as great.

    Likely saved my life... I highly recommend this very thorough, knowledgeable, no-nonsense doctor…read more Dr. Lavian ordered a lot of labs and imaging tests and prescribed medication after tailoring it to my preferences (I refuse to take a certain type of medication but he found an alternative that I'm fine with). The day after I got my MRI and CT scans done, I received an unexpected phone call from dr. Lavian's office. They insisted I come to his office the same day to discuss the imaging results. At first I turned them down because I didn't really have a way to get to Encino before the end of the business hours (which was three hours away), and besides I had an appointment with dr. Lavian already scheduled approximately three weeks later. Five minutes later they called back and said the doctor absolutely insists I come in right away to discuss the imaging results from the previous day. I did go. What I learned that day at dr. Lavian's office is that I had a non-neurological but potentially life threatening condition. Dr. Lavian became aware of it because the CT technician captured it in the scan even though it was a bit outside of the area that dr. Lavian had requested the scan for. Dr. Lavian immediately put in an urgent referral to a vascular surgeon and told me to retrieve the authorization the next morning and schedule an appointment without delay. He also reiterated the importance of adhering to the medication he had prescribed, and ordered more labs to be done prior to the follow up appointment. So, yes, this doctor is very busy and has a wait room full of patients every time... (Frankly, I'd be worried if the wait room was empty!) Yes, there is a wait at every appointment. But the doctor does a very good job and clearly cares about his patients. Dr. Lavian was professional and polite every time I interacted with him. Most importantly, he's been doing a great job as my doctor. I'll end by sharing what I heard from my primary care doctor. She said that from the ample feedback she receives about dr. Lavian she concluded that he wants the best for his patients. I couldn't agree more.

    stay away. this office is hopelessly…read more it took them 8 weeks to process the reequest for brain mri. when they finaly did it it was wrong. a totaly wast of time. on top of this the doctor only will see you the first time in centry city then after you wasted half a day of your life goign to this appointmetn - they office refuse you to schudled in that office moving forward and wants me to drive 45 mins away to a totaly different office low performing scammers. -- stay away.

    My wife and I are so grateful for Dr. O. He is knowledgable, kind, and deeply caring about his…read morepatients. We have had 2 incidents where had to get emergency advice from him about accidents we were in. Not only did he make himself available, but he continually followed up with us to make sure we were doing ok. Days later he was coming to us with additional suggestions to aid recovery. His knowledge goes far beyond neurology, as he has helped us through viral infections and even a foot fracture. If all doctors had the wisdom and kindness of Dr O, the world would be a better place.

    Definitely paying for the 5 star reviews. Unprofessional, weird office, seems to he associated…read morewith personal injury attorneys, very strange office, the office staff is not allowed to make appointments for patient to see doctor. No follow up, doctor seems caring at first, but in reality does no testing, when I insisted on an MRI he sat on results. I repeatedly asked for help, my husband suffered for months under his supposed care. When I asked repeatedly for mri results and ultimately desperate for help this monster had the nerve to respond with a curt text telling me to not text him, apparently it was his "personal" cell. NOT a word to me about the medical crisis my husband was experiencing. Had to get results of the MRI directly from imaging center and find a new doctor. Not only dealing with the TBI my darling husband is suffering from but also dealt with the nonsense this guy put us through for months. 5 stars must be bots. Steer clear, nuttiest "doctor" office Ive ever experienced.

    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." Completely unacceptable customer service, especially when dealing with patients and billing concerns. Very disappointed with the way we were treated.

    You wonder why there are only reviews from 2 years ago? Because he probably has had all his…read morepatients leave. I have never had to deal with a more unprofessional, least attentive and more UNSYMPATHETIC neurologist in my entire life. To sum it up - I had a very traumatic experience that led me to fall on my face, end up in the ER, end up with stitches in my forehead and a splint on my wrist. All due to medication that he provided me and no information on side effects before taking it. So... due to his lack of communication(which is a norm for him) on my way to the ER I called his office, no answer. Then called again to only have his front desk say we will relay your message. This happen 3 more times, which resulted in me calling 5 times, while I am in an emergency situation and my neurologist who knows of my epilepsy condition has still not returned my call. Finally the NEXT DAY, I call AGAIN and the front desk woman says oh yes, he should be calling you. I find out Dr. Scharf is on vacation. He has no on call doctor, no emergency line to reach out. Nothing. He says he will send my records over so I can get in to see someone. That didn't happen. I had to figure it out all on my own. And still, 3 and half weeks later - I have still not heard from him. So, if you want a neurologist who ACTUALLY cares, takes the time to pick up the phone, tell u about the side effects and remember your medical history - DO NOT go to Dr. David Scharf.

    Dr. Scharf is very kind and listens to everything you have to say. I never felt rushed and I had…read morelists of things to go over with him. I really appreciated his approach and would recommend him to anyone. His office staff is also very friendly and helpful. Thank you
