    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.

    Used to be a great doctor but the last 5 years something happened. Maybe he's burnt out, but your…read morelucky you see him on your appointment dates. The wait is ridiculous and when they do call your name the visit is usually with the NP,not the doctor. Medications if called in are usually wrong and the lack of empathy in the staff shows. Too bad it's turned out like this. I used to rave about this doctor and his office. Now I regret going there. Seems they forgot they are working with cancer patients who need professionalism and kindness. A stage 4 cancer patient waiting to be seen for 2 to 3 hours is ridiculous. Sometimes greed takes over compassion.

    Words cannot fully express my gratitude to Dr. Cohen…read more A different surgeon had stated I urgently needed surgery, warned that exercise was dangerous for my condition, and stated he would clear his schedule to operate as soon as possible. I felt uneasy about this assessment, and had read online that this doctor has performed "unnecessary surgeries". At the suggestion of my internist, I saw Dr. Cohen for a second opinion. I'm so glad I did. Dr. Cohen took the time to thoroughly review my situation and said that I do NOT need surgery right now. He assured me it's safe to exercise, and that if anything changes, surgery can still be considered--but I may not need it at all! Dr. Cohen explained everything clearly, and I trust him. Thank you, Dr. Cohen!

    Wow, wow, wow -- what an incredible experience with this office from start to finish…read more From the moment I booked my appointment, Maribel made everything so streamlined and easy. The check-in process was smooth, efficient, and welcoming. Meeting Dr. Jason Cohen was truly an absolute pleasure and an honor. He has exceptional bedside manner -- approachable, kind, confident, and reassuring. I immediately felt secure and safe in his hands. He is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled, yet remains humble and deeply caring, which is rare and so meaningful as a patient. Dr. Cohen went above and beyond by making it possible for me to see another specialist the very next day -- he truly moved mountains and brought me immense peace of mind. I am beyond grateful for his care and dedication. We are incredibly lucky to have Dr. Jason Cohen as a provider. Thank you for this amazing experience and for allowing me to be under such exceptional care.

The front coordinators and upstairs coordinators are great they are kind and understanding. However, I truly believe they are trying to milk my insurance. Let me explain, I have enlarged lymph nodes in my chest. I found this out TWO MONTHS AGO. I had several images done and I needed a biopsy to find out what is going on with me. The doctor that was supposed to obtain the biopsy said, "the lymph node that I want to do the biopsy on is in between your lungs and heart. There is a great chance I may puncture your lung and we may not get the sample we want etc" opped out of that procedure and went for a thoracic surgeon however they were so unprofessional that I did not want to deal with them. I went to my pulmonary surgeon and he said, "you should not be going through this let me get you another surgeon. He then said, there is nothing wrong with your lungs, I honestly don't know why they sent you to me. I just happened to be back for CT scan (my third at this time) and the same doctor two months ago asked me what is going on with the biopsy. I told her the long drawn out story and she said, " two months is too long , let me take it out your neck" WTF!!!!! You could have done this two months ago. For two months I have been stressing about if I have cancer or not and you could have put my mind at rest TWO MONTHS

Upon meeting her, I was really impressed--she put me at ease and made me feel confident that my surgery would go smoothly. As a type 1 diabetic on an insulin pump, I expressed my concerns about managing my blood sugar during surgery. Dr. Memsic assured me she would take care of everything and that I would be okay. Unfortunately, my experience was far from what I expected. When I woke up 7 hours after surgery, I experienced a myriad of complications. During the procedure, my blood sugar dropped dangerously low, and my insulin pump was disconnected for 3 hours. I was given glucose during surgery and woke up with a blood sugar level over 550. I felt incredibly weak, had an electrolyte imbalance, and lost so much blood that I required two transfusions. The worst part was my persistent complaints of chest pain, a rapid heart rate, and dizziness in the days following surgery. I begged Dr. Memsic not to discharge me because I knew something was wrong, but both she and the nurses at Cedars-Sinai dismissed me as overreacting. Against my protests, they discharged me in terrible condition and sent me home. Thankfully, my husband took me straight to Henry Mayo, where I was diagnosed with a pulmonary embolism in my right lung. The doctors there told me I could have gone into cardiac arrest if I hadn't listened to my instincts and sought help. I would avoid Dr. Memsic at all costs. While I am fortunate to have survived this nightmare, I wouldn't wish this experience on my worst enemy. I now see a much better breast surgeon, and I'm grateful for my plastic surgeon, Dr. Min, who was excellent throughout the process. Please do your research and always listen to your gut.

She performed my mastectomy with extraordinary skill, care, and compassion. From the very beginning, she went above and beyond in every possible way, making sure I felt supported, understood, and never alone during one of the most difficult moments of my life. Together with Dr. Cassileth, the plastic surgeon, they did an absolutely amazing job on my reconstruction. The results are beautiful, but more importantly, they gave me back my confidence, my peace, and my ability to move forward with joy. Dr. Richardson is the most human doctor I have ever met. She treats her patients with genuine empathy, kindness, and respect. I trust her with my heart. There are no words that can truly express how grateful I am for her care and dedication. I chose to write this review today, on Christmas Day, because without Dr. Richardson, I may not be here celebrating life with my loved ones. That alone speaks to the profound impact she has had on my life. She is truly one of a kind. A special thank you to Crystal, whose support, coordination, and care helped make everything run smoothly. Your kindness and dedication meant more to me than you know. This review was overdue, but thanks to Dr. Richardson and her incredible team, I was busy enjoying my life again
