Dr. Karimian found out through her thorough exam process that I had over 17 herniated disc's in my back. She has helped me tremendously, I've been with her 3 years! The office staff is remarkable. They are kind, efficient, and easy to deal with. My only issue is getting a call back after leaving several messages. That doesn't happen often.

Three and one-half stars. I had been going to this office since 2013 when the powers that be…read morechanged their tune about primary care doctors prescribing opiods. I saw both doctor, Dr. Karamian and Dr. Ilbeigi. I did not care fot Karamian as her injections caused me pain and I also found her to be too clinical. And a bit rude. I loved Ilbeigi as he was kind, did pretty painless injections and fixed a problem that the staff messed up. once I told him That they inadvertently changed the dosage of my meds. Sadly Dr. Ilbeigi retired abruptly giving us all 2 weeks notice. Needless to say this was a problem. My body decided to have a sciatica flare up during this transition that hit the 10 level for a couple of weeks. I managed to use a muscle relaxer to help with the pain and allow me to sleep a few hours Intermittently throughout the day. Pain meds do very little for nerve pain. Finding a new pain management Dr that will give me the medication I was taking so far has been difficult . I had to wait a month before I could even make it to lay in the back seat of my girlfriend's car to get to these appointments. I thought I was okay with the first doctor but they shorted my prescription and never bothered to explain why nor how to go off these meds. when I called they told me to wait the month to speak to someone. I tried their main office as this clinic has various offices throughout Southern California, guess it's a money maker, however I got nowhere with her either. The next Dr berated Dr Ilbeigi and myself for even being on these meds. He was rude condescending and kept me waiting for 2 hours prior to seeing me. When I returned to Dr number one who is not a Dr but a rotating staff of nurse practitioners that one sees monthly she was under the assumption that I was told about the decrease. I wasn't. I was told she would keep my meds as is but that my next appointment the doctor might change them. No one mentioned nurse practitioners. Their main concern and to be honest both drs concern was following the regulations and abiding by the criteria set by the FDA or the powers that be with little concern for the patient. They wanted to cover their ass more than aid the pain patient. It has become pretty much a one size fits all. Since I had been in pain for years I tried various treatment. The one that changed my life, the pain meds. I went from being home bound to getting certified to teach water fitness which I did for 12 years until my next decline and sadly had to qui Teaching and working out. At that time I went all out trying injections, acupuncture, chiropractic (legs went numb) nerve blocks, mindful meditation, yoga and Pilates. The final thing that ultimately worked was massage which I paid out of pocket for over a year until my masseuse moved away. So if you want try Karamian go for it. Oh, she would not see anyone of us who had been a prior patient which I believe demonstrates her attitude and "first do no harm" way of practicing Medicine. I had hoped to find a group of prior patient so we could exchange notes on who best to see. I'm going to be 80 in April and I have been in pain since 1987 going on pain meds in 2003 when the policy was, "there is no cap on how much you can take of these drugs to this". I simply don't have the energy I had 13 years ago when I had to quit teaching and was in such good shape to Dr shop. Pain erodes your body and more so your spirit. Being told to detox myself without guidance is malpractice in my books but I know it's common practice in theirs. I have always been very careful with how I take these meds. After all they changed my life. I respected them unlike many of the providers who prescribe them. Good luck to those of you looking for pain management. I hope you find one you like

But I ended up getting one epidural injection in my low back, and before I was even off the table, Dr. Loomba was telling me-NOT ASKING-but telling me "you feel better now don't you". I simply chuckled and replied "not yet doc". Then, not even more than 2mins later as I was leaving the treatment room, he TOLD me AGAIN "you feel better now don't you". That time it irritated me just a bit, but I still replied calmly "no doc, no relief yet". As I was then sitting with the nurse to get my vitals redone after the procedure, it had literally only been maybe a total of 10mins since I was actually done getting the injections and I still was NOT feeling any relief, but Dr. Loomba then peeks his head around where I was sitting with the nurse and says it AGAIN..."you feel better NOW don't you" in a somewhat condescending voice. Well, that time I was thoroughly irritated and replied sternly "NO DOC I DO NOT". That was all I said and just how I said it. This man lost his ever loving mind, began yelling and cursing at me telling me I'm a "liar" and that he was discharging me from his care because he was "tired of dealing with" me. He then wrote up an entire disgusting diatribe in my medical records about me being a liar and that he refuses to treat me due to MY actions. What kind of medical professional acts like that to their patients?!! This man only wants money, he doesn't really care about actually helping anyone. Stay far away from Global Pain Care if you actually need help with your pain. Not to mention, it took me over 4hrs at each of my appointments. I would have a 10am appt, would have to sit and wait in the waiting room for at very the least 3hrs, then when I would finally be taken back - the doctor would take his time actually getting to me, but then when he finally came in to speak with me - he would rush thru and walk out within less than 2mins. Never wanted to answer any questions I had, or truly help in any way. He couldn't care less. Disgusting excuse for a medical doctor.

I was having excruciating back pain (while sitting, an 8/10 pain) and every pain killer prescribed to me to date was doing nothing to help. 1. His office is clean and easily accessible. At this point, I was in a wheelchair. The other pain management dr I was seeing was barely accessible. 2. Dr. Nassiri is very friendly and knowledgeable. He has a medical scribe document conversations to ensure accuracy. He reviewed my MRI and his assessment was exactly what I had heard from other doctors and he spent a lot of time answering all questions I had. 3. I was very unhappy with the orthopedic doctor I was seeing. He recommended a world class orthopedic surgeon, who I went to and had perform my surgery (L4/L5 microdiscectomy). 4. He and his team answer emails quickly! No need to call in. 5. While he was talking about this great doctor, his front desk person overhead this portion and when I walkld out the door, she had a document printed with contact details and other info I needed. 6. He put me on a specific regiment that WORKED (with gapapentin). Within 2 weeks, I could walk and the pain got down to levels where I could sleep. I then foolishly tried to reduce them and a lot of pain came back. That was my bad. Listen to him and follow the regiment. I had surgery in August 2023 (Thank you, Dr. Sodha!!) and am PAIN FREE (maybe a 1/10 at my worst). I really credit Dr. Nassiri and his fantastic staff with getting the best medical care available.
