There is not enough room on Yelp for all the wonderful things I can say about Dr. Mitri. He is kind, caring, funny, compassionate. He even gets my sense of humor (most of the time). He always took whatever time I needed to make sure my questions were answered and I was comfortable with the treatment plan. I had surgery with no unexpected issues during or after. I've never been one to go on about a doctor before but I talk about my "teddy bear of a surgeon" to my friends all the time. I could not have asked for better. This surgery was a bit of a scary prospect and he made the whole experience so much easier. read more

Dr. Mitri is totally wonderful. He delivered my husband's and my first child and is exactly what we were looking for in an OB/GYN: down-to-earth, totally approachable and extremely knowledgeable. I received great care from Dr. Mitri leading up to my daughter's birth and I had confidence in him that he would be outstanding during the labor and delivery process. He did not disappoint. I went to the hospital three times with contractions and he came into the hospital in person each time to see me. I felt so supported with him as my doctor. My delivery was very quick and easy and I owe that in part to Dr. Mitri. I was so confident that I was in good hands that I felt at ease during delivery. My husband and I are moving back East so if we have more children we won't be able to have Dr. Mitri deliver them, which totally bums me out. I cannot recommend him highly enough. read more

I went into labor with my daughter on a Friday night and Dr. Mitri was the doctor on call that evening. Having never met him before I can saw with 100% certainty that I will never forget him! He was very caring and answered every question I had...even keeping up with my sarcastic sense of humor. I had initially wished to have him as my obgyn through pregnancy but my HMO insurance wasn't covered by the office he practices out of. Funny how everything works out! I would have read more

Thank You Dr. Mitri. For caring after my family and helping us along this successful journey. We are pleased with your services and staff. We highly recommend your practice to others. read more

Thank God for Dr. Mitri!!! He's simply an amazing Doctor. I was up and about hours after giving birth. I barely felt any discomfort, mostly just muscle pain. Kudos to Dr. M!! He was calm and all smiles the whole 15-20 mins when he was delivering my baby. He made it seem like he was just pulling out a cake from the oven. LOL It was that smooth and easy! Seriously!! :)) read more

What could I say about this man? I could honestly recommend him to anyone who wants a caring and understanding OB/GYN. So I had stumbled upon this yelp page when looking for a doctor to assist me in delivering my first daughter. Getting an appointment was fast and simple with his office. Immediately after meeting him I love him. I knew I had made a right choice. He was very polite and made me feel like a friend rather than patient. Fast foward. The day before I was going to deliver I went in for my 39 week check up. Two days short of 40 weeks. He could see I was in early labor and even though I was in pain he said go home and wait. The next day I went in labor at 6 am. When I got to the hospital while monitoring myself and the baby they noticed she needed oxygen putting me on a oxygen mask. Dr. Mitri walked in to check on me as soon as I came in. As the nurses monitored me they noticed my baby's heart rate falling. At this point Dr. Mitri was in surgery so another doctor came in to see what the nurse was seeing. Then possibly 8 other people came in to rush me into an emergency c section. I'll admit I was terrified. But Dr. Mitri popped in, spoke calmly and said her heart rate is back up. We will wait. Also he didn't want me to have a c section because I am 22 and no prior complications. Ultimately, we had to have a c section. He calmly explained it was best for me and the baby. So there we went. I'll admit a c section was not in my birthing plan but Dr. Mitri was honestly the best before, during and after surgery. My daughter had her cord wrapped twice and he had prepared me that she might go to NICU but she was happy and healthy. Now she is 7 months and my scar is barely visible. I can't thank him enough. I can't wait for him to help me deliver more! read more

I am writing this review as a father who is deeply impressed by Dr. Mitri's skills and performance. Our son is now almost two years old and developing just perfectly, and today I want to share our great experience with Dr. Mitri. He was not only the greatest physician you can imagine during the whole pregnancy period, as described by so many others here. He also is exactly the physician you want when things get complicated. Dr. Mitri has saved our son's life during a delivery with complications, and he has handled this situation with an outstanding profesionalism that we have not seen in any other physician until today. We are thankful forever and will remember Dr. Mitri for the rest of our lives. read more

The best OBGYN hands down! When I was pregnant I felt like I was his only patient. He is so warm and caring! Instead of just telling me I had bad morning sickness and get over it he correctly diagnosed me with hyperemesis. He is so compassionate and really listens. He was the only Doctor that came in and actually sat down and talked to me before he touched me. Amazing! read more

I recommend, recommend Dr. Mitri. At first I was so skeptical of having a male Dr. but after my 2 experiences with 2 different female Drs., I decided to take a chance with a male Dr. I am so thankful with God that I found Dr. Mitri on yelp and he had openings. I am on my third and last pregnancy and I so wished that I had Dr. Mitri for my first and second pregnancies. He takes his time to meet with you and addresses all questions/concerns. Not to say, he responds to e-mail inquiries promptly. My first pregnancy was with a Dr. in Pasadena and she was really nice but not as engaging and personable as he is. I decided to remove myself from her care because her office staff was ridiculously rude and it was not worth the service provided to put up with. A lot of patients have left her for the same reason. My second pregnancy, I chose another Dr. and unfortunately this Dr. was not personable nor engaging. I felt I was treated as just another number on a chart. So, I started my search for the 3rd time. Not only is he a Dr. that demonstrates a passion for his profession, but he is so friendly and always has a smile on his face. He is a very busy man, but always smiling. The office staff at Fair Oaks Women's Health are really nice and friendly. They are very well trained in customer/patient services. There are a few staff members that are more serious than others, but I think it is because they are really busy. I drive from San Fernando to Pasadena because that is how great of service I am provided with. read more

DR MITRI SAVED MY LIFE he took me in and fit me into his packed schedule when I had an ovarian cyst the size of a grapefruit in me and he texted my mom during it even though he was helping other patients he still took he time to be attentive to my needs and those of my moms and properly removed everything that needed to be removed NUMBER ONE DOCTOR read more

Dr Mitri is the best gynecologist I have ever met in my life!!! I have been in search of a gyno after not being happy with any of the other Dr's I've been to. He is very genuinely nice and makes you feel really comfortable to talk about any concerns you have. He takes great amount of time to cover the aspects of your health; which other gynecologists failed to do so. I am ever so grateful to have him as my gynecologist! read more

Dr Mitri is the best OB you can ask for! After so many discomforts and complications during pregnancy, my little girl came last week healthily and my recovery has been great. Dr Mitri is caring and patient and he usually replies to my email within an hour. He answers all questions without making me feel silly. Will definitely recommend him to anyone who needs a great OB. read more

My husband found Dr. Mitri through Yelp. He wasn't wrong about helping me pick Dr. Mitri to be my OBGYN. It's obvious that Dr. Mitri deserves 5 star reviews and much more. This was my first pregnancy and it was such a wonderful experience. I had a ton of questions and concerns during my pregnancy but Dr. Mitri was always so attentive, diligent, and a great listener. I never felt dumb for asking a question and I was always put at ease. Amanda his Medical Assistant was so sweet and professional. My husband and I just bought a house outside the Pasadena area but we will defiantly have Dr. Mitri be our doctor for future pregnancies. read more

Dr. Mitri is an all-star OB/Gyn and I am very glad he helped bring my first child into the world earlier this year. I initially chose Dr. Mitri based on his high Yelp rating and scheduled a consultation fairly soon after I found out I was pregnant. While our initial meeting felt a little rushed to me, every single interaction thereafter was very pleasant and calming. Halfway through my pregnancy, we realized my baby wasn't growing very well and I had to be monitored much more frequently than normal. Eventually, we both agreed it would be best to be induced and, during delivery, nearly had to have a C-section since my baby wasn't fairing well with labor. All in all, my baby is here today, happy and growing like a champ. Throughout it all, with what could have been a terrifying experience, Dr. Mitri had a very calm and centering tone. While he would always provide his recommendations on how best to proceed, the way he spoke to me allowed me to feel that I was in the driver's seat and he was there to support me in my decisions for myself and my baby. Also, whenever I had a question and wanted to email him, he always got back to me within 24 hours. I highly recommend Dr. Mitri and hope that he will deliver my baby, should my husband and I be fortunate enough to conceive another. read more

I am not one to write reviews but Dr. Mitri popped up as I was looking for a regular Dr since moving and these awful memories came rushing back. I was treated by another Dr for potential cervical cancer 5 years ago. My primary OB was out so Dr. Mitri saw me instead during my follow-up appointment. When I asked him what preventative measures I could take for the future he said to me, and I quote, "Don't be a whore." He made me very uncomfortable, so much so that years later I ran into him at my son's swim school and confronted him. Needless to say he never went to that swim school again with his kid. He was very unprofessional and it left me scarred to see other male Drs. I was surprised to see he had so many 5 star ratings on yelp and wondered if he'd been inappropriate to any of his other patients. I have not seen a male Dr. since that incident and he should be ashamed by his actions as an MD. read more

We had the privilege of having Dr. Mitri as our doctor for our second child! He is very kind, informative, attentive and caring. In fact, the entire staff at his practice go above and beyond to accommodate your needs. Highly recommended! read more

Dr. Mitri is great! I meet him this year at my annual check up because my scheduled doctor was not available. I am very happy to have met him and intend to keep Dr. MItri as my regular doctor. He really listens and wants to give you the best care. We dealt with some issues I was having these past couple of months. Each encounter with Dr. Mitri was comfortable, secure and professional. I trust him completely . read more

Dr. Mitri is legit one of the nicest people I have ever met. He performed and a diagnostic laparoscopy for endometriosis. So many people have issues with gas build up in the chest from the CO2 but I had no issues as he made sure to remove all the gas. He is so kind and even when his staff over books him, he will sit with you and go over all your questions and concerns. I look forward to working with him as I move forward with my reproductive health. read more

In my 57 springtimes, I have seen a number of Pasadena OBGYNS...all retired. My General doctor referred me to this office. Since Dr. Jick was fully booked longer than I wished to wait for my answers, I took a consultation with Dr. Mitri. I am completely impressed with how extremely well-informed he was about me ~ he had clearly read my entire pre-exam story chart before our visit. My questions were answered very clearly and he informed me of a couple things I did not know about myself. Hmmm. What a great personality to go with his very excellent knowledge base; vey engaging and excellent eye contact. Dr. Mitri allayed a couple of fears I came with and outlined some details to be more aware of. I look forward to working with him for the specialist he is now that I need this specialty again ~ just not for pregnancy :) read more

Where do I begin.....me and my husband couldn't have asked for a better doctor to guide us through this journey of having our first child who was born on July 27, 2015! From our very first to our last appointment with him, we never felt rushed or that we were asking a stupid question, (and trust me, I probably asked a few)! He always answered our questions thoroughly, and always made sure our questions and concerns were addressed. During my delivery he was an amazing coach and made me feel very confident during the process of delivering my first child......which can be very scary to a new mom. The staff and the office is wonderful, and we enjoyed every appointment. My husband and I just moved out of the area, but I will definitely continue with him for our future child, hopefully in a year or two. I HIGHLY recommend him! read more

Hands down the very best OBGyn that I'd ever have! My husband and I were thrilled when we found Dr. Mitri. He is AMAZING! Very thorough and comforting. This pregnancy is just so smooth and better because of his expertise. He's making sure that my husband and I are comfortable in any decision we made for the baby. He took time to answer every single questions that we had. And he has the sweetest assistant, Amanda who always so helpful and will assist all your needs and phone calls in ASAP matter. We definitely trust Dr. Mitri and his staff so much! I highly recommended him to all of our families and friends!! read more

I highly recommend Dr. Mitri. I found him thru Yelp when I was looking for an OB when I got pregnant. The reviews here are true - He was amazing from beginning to end. He answered all my questions and made me feel at ease with my pregnancy (despite it being a very uncomfortable one). He has great bedside manner and was the biggest cheerleader during my delivery. read more

Dr.Mitri is awesome. It was my first time here and I came here 30 minutes earlier than my appointment time, as I was told. I was a bit grumpy cause I had to wait 2 hours (not including the early 30 mins I came to fill out papers) for him although I made an appointment. They apologized and told me that they were running late. Dr.Mitri finally came and made me feel comfortable right away. He's very nice and knowledgeable. He did the pap smear and he was gentle and it did not hurt at all. If I had to wait all over again I would because he's worth the wait. read more

A most competent, up to-date with the latest in the field, caring physician. Dr Mitri knows how to get to the heart of the problem with targeted questions and explains in the simplest terms the situation. I would highly recommend him--by far the best ob-gyn I have come across read more

I had my first appointment with Dr. Mitri today and I was throughly impressed! Initially I had some reservations because my primary care doctor had referred me to another physician at Fair Oaks Women's Health. She couldn't see me for a couple of months so I elected to see Dr. Mitri and I am so glad I did. All my concerns about seeing a someone new and a male gynecologist were alleviated as soon as we started talking. I've never felt more comfortable talking to a doctor. In the past I've felt that physicians either talk to me in "medical speak" and then they are surprised when I have questions or they are condescending especially when it comes to reproductive health--Dr. Mitri was neither. He treated me like an intelligent person, yet throughly answered all my questions. I would highly recommend him! read more

Definitely most patient and compassionate doctor I ever met. Very knowledgable and thorough with all his recommendations. He is up-to-date with all the latest research and that shows how much he cares about what he does. After a couple of failed attempts he guided us through a safe and healthy pregnancy and now we are happy parents of a healthy baby boy! This doctor changes lives! I will be forever grateful to Dr. Mitri for his knowledge, compassion, and expertise! read more

Dr. Mitri was not my OB but he delivered my baby while Dr. Jick was out of the country. I met him when he came in to deliver. When Dr. Jick told me he most likely would not be there for my delivery, I wasn't freaked out because I had met Dr. Park and liked her a lot. I requested her and Dr. Jick said it would probably be Dr. Mitri. I was a little nervous only because I was a high risk pregnancy. I had seen the glowing reviews of Dr. Mitri and I knew he would be great but I worried that something might go wrong and I didn't think Dr. Mitri specialized in high risk pregnancies. Something went wrong while I was in labor and there was a gap in the FOWH coverage. Dr. Mitri was surely not in charge of scheduling so I don't blame him. But I was pretty upset by the time he got there and in a lot of pain. He was so kind and I knew it was almost over when I saw him. He was just great. The right amount of encouraging you to finish while helping you understand what you need to do. After the delivery, I was able to email him with follow up care questions and he was very responsive. He's a really great doctor, one of the best and nicest I have ever met. read more

Dr. Mitri is absolutely wonderful to have as a Gynecologists. I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND DR. MITRI. I am currently pregnant with my third child and Dr. Mitri has been so professional and friendly with me that I am so comfortable having him as my Dr. who is attending me with this pregnancy. He is a very busy Dr. but he always has a smile and he always takes his time. I thank God I found a good and caring Dr. I was not fond of having a male Dr. as my previous Drs. were female, but it seemed that they were not as caring, comforting or concerned for my concerns. I felt as though I was just a chart number and/or I was rushed when I had my appointments. I understand Drs have a busy schedule, but a patient cannot be seen or addressed as just another number. You will definitely not have this issue with Dr. Mitri. Oh, and the office staff is really nice and friendly. I do pay a little more out of pocket, but it is so worth it for the service and peace of mind you receive. read more

I had a horrible experience at a GYN the week before my appointment with Dr. Mitri, so I was not overly optimistic going in to see another doctor. Dr. Mitri was simply amazing!!! The office staff was professional and my appointment time was prompt!! No long waiting!!! I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Mitri, he addressed my concerns and followed up with me in a timely manner! If you've ever had a bad experience you need to go to him to restore your faith in the medical profession!! I am not a "huggy" type of person but I had to give him a hug! Best doctor I have ever seen in my life!! read more

I recently switched doctors and I am so glad I did! Dr. Mitri is AMAZING! I had so many questions and he took the time to answer every one of them. He is kind, patient and has a terrific bedside manor. Not many doctors are like that these days. Plus, the office is clean/organized, nurses were friendly and I was able to get an appointment right away. I'm recommending him to all of my girlfriends! Thank you Dr. Mitri! read more

Dr. Mitri changed my life! I had been with Kaiser for YEARS and was told there was nothing they could do about a pretty serious problem I was having. Within a couple of months of working with Dr. Mitri, not only did he figure out what was wrong with me, but he completely CURED me. I can not thank him enough. I drive all the way from Burbank and it is worth every mile and then some to see him. Thank you, Dr. Mitri, for changing my life!!!! read more

Dr. Mitri , definitely I will recommend .. He is very kind with me from the beginning. Even though when we have schedule appointment, Some times we need to wait in the reception for our term to meet doctor, it may because he will be attending any emergency case or attending any delivery. But I am sure he will make his best to meet us as early as possible. I got rupture membrane during my 34 weeks and I was in high risk.. Dr. Mitri is very caring and he explained me and my husband in detail about my situation and why I want to deliver baby in 34 weeks. He took complete care of me and delivered my baby with out much risk. Even after deliver he used to meet me early in the morning and will discuss if i have any health issue. He is really very good! Now me and my son both are healthy, thanks to Dr. Mitri.. read more

Incredibly grateful to have found an OBGYN who has consistently taken the time to listen to my concerns and provide individualized recommendations. It's been incredibly validating to have a physician provide a diagnosis and treatment plan for the decade-long pain and other symptoms I've been experiencing and to recommend appropriate treatments and therapies for my endometriosis. I was initially placed on high dose oral progesterone which came with many side effects for me including weight gain and high blood pressure and I was hesitant to try an IUD since my previous experience had been so horrendous (at another practice). Dr. Mitri ensured my IUD placement was as comfortable as possible, placed a cervical block to reduce the pain during the procedure, and has always taken my concerns into consideration. I am so grateful for his medical care and support. I am so glad to have found him and to call him my OBGYN. read more

There are not enough words to describe how grateful I am to have found such an amazing doctor!!! I am so thankful for Dr. Mitri. He is AMAZING!! My story begins at 3 weeks into my pregnancy; when I first found out. I had no idea what a roller coaster of a ride I was in for. Morning sickness is very a very common symptom during the first trimester, and being my second pregnancy, it was nothing new. I would spend my days locked in the bathroom, crying, hoping for the first trimester to be over. I had morning sickness, but had no idea how severe it was. I found a doctor near my area and all they told me was it would pass. 3 weeks passed and I felt worse. had lost about 6 lbs already. I let my doctor know I wasn't well, couldn't keep anything in, not even the prenatal vitamins. Hoping to get a second opinion I searched for another doctor. During my search, I ended up passing out and going yo the hospital. I was severely dehydrated and had 4 litters of IV fluids that night. I found another doctor and she promised to take care of me...all she did was brush it off. Said morning sickness would go away. I was 11 weeks pregnant l, almost nearing the end of my first trimester and entering the second. Hoping things would change, I had lost a total of 13 lbs. After two more weeks of her care, my blood pressure was very low and I would pass out at least 4 times a week, nothing was done. everything would just be overlooked. I was be genius to worry and panick, so I searched for other doctors. I was getting worse and after seeing 3 more doctors, having to go to the hospital 4 more times due to dehydration, I began to feel hopeless. nobody wanted to help me and my Job was beginning to become more and more difficult by the day. But just when I was about to give up, I found Dr. Mitri. It was a 30 minute drive for me, but I was convinced with all the reviews I had read and I was hopeful. I wanted to make sure me and my baby were fine. I was 19 weeks pregnant and had lost 29 lbs. which is very unhealthy. I gave the office a call and the receptionist was so sweet and helpful. I explained my situation. after sympathizing and doing her best to accommodate me she gave me an appointment but it wasn't for another month. I set it up either way. she called me a couple of hours later and told me a space had opened up for that Friday but I would have to have all the paperwork ready and at hand. I had seen so many doctors so I already had all my medical records at hand. that friday, I walked into the office, and I knew at that very instant that I was going to be helped. I knew my baby and I would be treated well. I was a bit nervous, but upon meeting him, I felt a sense of relief. he took me into his office and immediately showed concern. he had taken a look at my records and nothing he saw was good. He diagnosed me with Hyperemesis Gravidarum and immediately took me out of work. He immediately took action and set me up for at home health care. Gave me 3 IV treatments a week with medication. I began seeing him once a week. two weeks into my treatments, I wasn't fainting but I was still dropping weight and I couldn't keep solids or liquids in. he immediately sent me to the hospital. I spent a week hooked on to IV treatments and medication and little by little, I showed improvement. I was in need of that care, and attention and Dr. Mitri was the angel who gave me and my baby that care we needed. I gained 2 lbs while in the hospital and with the medication provided, I was finally able to keep liquids and some solids in. 36 lbs lost during my horrible experience which such careless doctors, 2 lbs gained in his care. When I was released, at 23 weeks I did lose those 2 lbs again, but it was within 2 weeks. At my 27 week checkup, I had not gained nor lost a lb since. Today I had my next check up, at 28 weeks. I gained a lb!!! It was wonderful to see that scale show a higher number for once!! Dr. Mitri was so excited and happy to see that! I am so thankful for Dr. Mitri and all his staff! they are wonderful!!! I look forward to every visit and I feel so much better these days. my baby kicks and he is happy and healthy!! and though I still experience some nausea and vomiting at times, I can now eat and keep hydrated. Dr. Mitri is the best!!! He is amazing!!!!! I will never stop thanking him for helping me! who knows what could have happened to my baby or me if he had not been here to help. read more

Since I came to know the best news of my life that I am going to be mom, I started searching for Obstetricians. As we are from India we didn't know anything about the doctors and medical facilities in USA, so we started searching for doctors. Which place would had been best other than coming to "YELP". So first of all huge thanks to YELP for giving me an idea about doctors. Eventually after searching I and my husband was convinced to visit Doctor Michael Mitri in Fair Oaks Clinic,Pasadena. We got our first appointment on 16th of April,2015 with Doctor Mitri and was very excited to meet him. Before appointment only Doctor shown his amazing courtesy by giving us a surprising call and letting us know that he is going to take care of me till my delivery. It was very touching for us. Eventually we met Dr Mitri and my treatment continued under his guidance. As time proceeded I became more and more comfortable and felt assured that I am in right hand. Well, let me tell something which anyone would be interested in, Doctor Mitri was very patient, always answered all our questions, spent good amount of time on diagnosing me, was very knowledgeable and of course have a very pleasant personality which would make any pregnant woman happy. Also to mention that I was very very satisfied with the Fair Oaks Clinic and all of their staffs, I have written different review for Fair Oaks Clinic. I gave birth to baby boy on 09/21/2015 @ 11:47 p.m. and had normal delivery,I am now a happy mother of 3 months son :-) .I would undoubtedly recommend Dr. Mitri from all perspective. Wish you very good luck Dr.Michael Mitri. Regards, Anonymous read more

Called to make an appointment and their customer service was rude af. Sorry wouldn't be coming here.

Amazing doctor - look no further, he is best OB/GYN that I have ever had

Dr. Mitri is the best/my favorite doctor I have ever had. He is easy to be around, funny, makes you feel like you are important and is very thorough. I swore that I would never have a male OBGYN, but now I wouldn't dream of finding a different doctor. I'm just glad I found him before he becomes impossible to get into! read more

The man is flat out brilliant. Saved my life and the life of my twins when I suddenly contracted preeclampsia. Delivered them leaving a barely visible cesarian scar and followed up on me every day till I left the hospital. Will be for ever grateful. read more

I can't tell you how ecstatic I am to have found Dr. Mitri! I was looking for a new ob gyn and decided to read any reviews of all doctors in the SGV area. I Yelp-ed him and read all 17 reviews. All 17 reviews were phenomenal. I decided to take a leap of faith and meet Dr. Mitri. First off, the staff was so professional and kind. They all greeted me with a smile and some brief conversation. I was a little nervous because I just wasn't sure if I would like him. When he walked it, he was this big jovial teddy bear. Dr. Mitri likes to meet his patients first and talk to them for a few minutes before he actually starts his exam. He took the time to introduce himself and asked questions and answered any concerns or issues I had. After that he gave me time to change and came back shortly to conduct my exam. He was definitely compassionate, patient and professional. He definitely made me feel like a patient and not just another "insurance payment". Dr. Mitri really cares for his patients and I am so blessed to have taken a leap of faith. Thanks so much Dr. Mitri! You rock!!! read more
