Post op 7 months now…read more I had been trying to establish post op care with a in network bariatric surgeon but it was such a big headache. I asked to get my labs checked and they couldn't even get that right. I reached out to Dr. Doraiswamy after 3 failed attempts. I explained the situation and he quickly got back to me to say not to worry, he will order labs and schedule a phone follow up to review labs. Same day, I got my telehealth appointment scheduled and labs emailed. I went to quest that weekend and got the done in preparation for my call the next week after Easter. Dr. D asked how I have been doing and reviewed the labs. B was a bit high so he recommended reducing to every other day. Vitamin A low but may choose to supplement in diet or via over the counter vitamin. We set some achievable goals with bumping up my exercise to focus on type and duration. I have another follow up call in 4 months. I cannot say enough great things about Dr. D. I am doing well 7 months post op/45 lbs down. Eating has normalized (my new norm). Occasional nausea which he explained to avoid drinking with meals. This will cause that weird funnel overflowing effect which will cause nausea. No other side effects that I have noted. This has been a very comfortable journey thus far. He has been a stellar surgeon before and after surgery. I am so happy I can still follow up with him throughout my journey to a healthier me. If you are contemplating any weight loss surgery, I continue to highly recommend Dr. D. He is the best! Also, special thanks to the office staff for being responsive and efficient with scheduling.

After my consultation, I felt confident moving forward because Dr. Chow was professional, detailed, patient, and never rushed me. He explained everything clearly before surgery and was very caring throughout the process. What impressed me most was his communication and follow-up. He personally checked on me after surgery and was always available when I had questions or concerns, which gave me a lot of reassurance and confidence. I also felt very safe knowing he has extensive surgical and airway training. His attention to detail and patient care truly stand out. In my opinion, he provides a very high-level experience in the Arcadia area. Thank you again, Dr. Chow. I am very happy with my result and will continue to update my progress as I heal.

This City of Hope location is not a hospital, just for medical visits…read more This location is a medical building and shares the space with a bunch of different offices. They are located on the 4th floor. Parking lot is right in front of the building. The only way you can get here driving is by taking Huntington Dr south. Going north will not reach here. You can U Turn through the small street right by Methodist Hospital to go south. Moved here since it is closer to home and Dr. Chung sees patients here a few times a week.

I've had a horrific "recovery" and have tried to contact him and the office several times. I've messaged through the patient portal, called the nurse triage line, left messages- no one has gotten back to me. I would NEVER trust this facility or its doctors to perform any medical procedures on you or your loved ones. I fear I have permanent damage and I will call every day until they finally give me the time of day. The fact I have to call every day and no one gets back to me is infuriating.

Right after the procedure they gave me my report, so I could see the results immediately. Big shout out to the whole team who took care of me! One small note: my appointment was at 9:00 (I arrived at 8:30) but I didn't go into the procedure room until 10:00, so the wait was a bit long. Other than that, everything was excellent. Highly recommend!

I would decline surgery if this was the only place available next time…read more Horrible experience. The receptionist was cold and nasty. The place is dark and dirty looking. The nurses aren't any better. With a broken wrist, I was ordered to get my head to the end of the bed for surgery. I told the nurse I had a broken wrist and couldn't move my frail 95 pound frame. She grabbed my gown by the neck and started to yank my up, lost her grip and socked me on the side of my face. I'm NOT making this up!! I felt like a piece of meat in a sausage plant. Wheel on e in wheel one out and wheel the next in. No bedside manners at this place. I typically let God handle my gripes and leave them to myself, but this place is so awful I had to leave a review. I had a serious eye surgery.. I hurt super bad after surgery. They just escorted me out still under the anesthesia. With a 2 1/2 hour ride home, I asked for a pillow so I could lay down in the back seat of the car. NO!! Pillows aren't offered as part of their service. My exceptional, brilliant surgeon has heard about my experience and will hopefully offer more surgery options at Jules Stein Eye Institute and cut this place out of her options.

Dr. Lakshman is incredibly talented, knowledgeable, and so easy to talk to. He has a way of making you feel comfortable from the moment you meet him. I've been seeing him for quite some time now, and he consistently does an amazing job. He listens, takes his time with me, and I never feel rushed. One of my favorite parts of every visit is seeing the office staff. They always greet you with a smile. They're genuinely kind, welcoming, and always so upbeat. It's one of the few medical offices where I actually look forward to my appointments because everyone makes you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. I'm so grateful I found this practice. In fact, I already have future appointments on the books, which says everything about the confidence I have in Dr. Lakshman and his team. I wholeheartedly recommend this practice. This team deserves far more than five stars!

After a four-year search, Dr. Li at LA Breast and Body (Arcadia) was the first physician to truly…read morelisten to me, validate my experience, and give me the correct diagnosis. From that very first appointment, I felt seen and taken seriously in a way I never had before. Women should not have to wait until they have cancer to be able to decide to have their breasts removed. Dr. Li carefully and thoroughly evaluated my history and made it clear that, in my case, a prophylactic mastectomy was medically necessary. I prophylactic surgery is for those who do not have cancer, but have other reasons why a mastectomy is in the best interest of the patient. That validation alone lifted an enormous emotional burden I had been carrying for years. Everything changed once she became part of my care team. From the moment my insurance approved surgery -- coordinated seamlessly with a breast oncologist at Cedars-Sinai, with whom she partners -- I felt an overwhelming sense of relief and safety. Dr. Li took the time to explain all surgical options in detail, answered every question, and respected my goals and preferences without pressure. I requested an Aesthetic Flat Closure, and Dr. Li worked in tandem with the breast oncologist during a single surgery, which meant I did not have to endure multiple surgeries. That level of coordination, foresight, and respect for my quality of life was invaluable. Just as important as her technical excellence is who she is as a physician: Dr. Li is kind, attentive, thoughtful, and deeply compassionate. She listens. She explains. She partners with you in decision-making. And her surgical skill speaks for itself. My results are what I wanted them to be. I also want to recognize Traci, her PA, and Sandra on her staff -- they are outstanding. They always answer the phone, respond efficiently, and make you feel that what you're saying truly matters. In moments that feel overwhelming, that kind of responsiveness and care makes all the difference. If you are looking for a plastic surgeon who combines exceptional expertise with genuine empathy, whether for breast surgery or any plastic surgery need, I cannot recommend LA Breast and Body and Dr. Li highly enough. I am profoundly grateful for her care and for the peace of mind she gave me. And, it's not just me: it's my husband, five children and 6 grandchildren. They and I thank you, thank you, thank you.

I received a tonsillectomy which is the removal of tonsils do to the fact that mine caused severe breathing problems blocking most of my airways and post op I was told they were overlapping which made mine 10xs of having more risk. The office staff that handled the paperwork my surgery I'd give them 3 to 4 stars although very friendly and inviting they failed to finalize the paperwork into getting my surgery and when I contacted my ppo provider they notified me that the day of my surgery they submitted the request form to use the usc medical hospital very unprofessional and caused my surgery to be cancelled however after 2 days of back and forth they moved heaven and earth to get me approved for a surgical procedure 3 days later.
