To anyone requiring a Podiatrist for foot issues: Dr. Panirian is the nicest, most kind, and the most knowledgeable doctor that I have ever had the pleasure to consult with. She is a doctor that I have found to be very easy to communicate with, and a joy to be treated by, more so than any doctor that I have ever met. I met Dr. Panirian due to an issue that I was having with my feet, due to callouses, which put me in the hospital requiring surgery. Everything went fantastic with the surgery and I have been seeing her weekly in her Los Angeles office for the past 3 months, throughout my healing process. She was a joy to be treated by in Cedars-Sinai Hospital, and that experience continued while seeing her in her office at Surgery Group LA, right next to the hospital. I will certainly recommend Dr. Panirian to anyone that I know who is having any issues with their feet that require the best Podiatrist available! Thank You, Dr. Panirian! read more

Dr. Arena and her entire team are extraordinary. Her excellence goes far beyond surgical skill--she provided me with generous emotional support and guided me with the kind of kindness and grace every patient hopes for. There were moments when I found profound beauty in her intelligence, reflected through her calm, compassionate gaze. Special thanks to Yan, Maribel, and the rest of the medical team--your warmth and attentiveness helped me feel truly safe and cared for. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Elizabeth Arina. As a very pleasant patient, I truly felt cared for every step of the way. She's not only professional and knowledgeable, but she also genuinely does everything from the heart. You can feel her warmth and dedication the moment you walk in. A special thank you to Yan, her assistant, who is absolutely incredible so kind, attentive, and always on top of everything. Together, they make you feel like you're in the best hands. I'm beyond grateful for their care! Hiwot D read more

From the first office schedule, to making more advanced plans, this staff has been exceptional. Dr Arena brings both great knowledge, and a welcome bedside manner. The front office understands the patients mindset. read more

Dr. Moshe Barnajian - my former review was '5 stars would only be adequate if stars were picked from the sky'. Dr. Barnajian has remained remarkable ever since. His command of his medical specialties has never once left me guessing. Knowledgeable, compassionate and stellar in life saving surgical skills. Completely trustworthy to the point where I've never ever thought of a 2nd opinion. His experience is of grand value as is his endless compassion. read more

Dr. Elizabeth Arena and Yan her assistant go above and beyond to make a cancer patient feel alive and hopeful. Dr. Arena is true caring humanbein...a patient is not just a patient nor a number, but a human being. She actually cares, listens, and is compassionate will not take ten minutes to hear you, but an hour if needed...that's a true calling of an exceptionAl physician. I have no words, but to express my gratitude towards them. Her staff is polite, patient, respectfu, and professiomal. I wish there were more physicians and stafff as the surgery group of Los Angeles. read more

All good things at Surgery Group LA. Mayra and Marie at the front desk are beyond helpful in servicing appointments, paperwork and lab results--just down right friendly folks. In recovery from my procedure Dr. Nasseri & Dr. Arena came by to check up on me. My main man, Dr. Barnajian, knocked it out of the park, GRAND SLAM!!!! Surgery Group LA really is a dream team of surgeons, I highly recommend putting your faith in this high tech care team. I live for Surgery Group LA, All Day, Every Day! read more

I found Dr. Barnajian from a sight recommending good pilonidal cyst / abscess / disease doctors. Before I saw Dr B I went to another (more local) surgeon who I did not vibe with at all. As soon as I had an appointment with Dr B I was stoked at how thoroughly he answered my questions, and how many times he had done the operation prior. Between him and his office I truly felt like I would be in good hands to have the surgery. I was not the easiest patient to work with. I had problems with my insurance, had to move the surgery date, and had A LOT of questions. Thankful the support staff was responsive via email (which is much much preferred to me over phone calls) and was able to help with all of my problems. The srugery itself went very well. The surgery center was pleasant, nothing hurt and I felt welcomed and comfortable. Recovery was truly a breeze and much easier than I was expecting. Super happy with the operation, the healing, and the after care! The only gripe that I even remotely come close to having with SGLA is that being in the Cedars Medical buildings, parking is a pain in the butt (fitting eh) and expensive. Unfortunately I can't bill my insurance for that, but all in all it is super worth it, and I would happily go back and recommend Surgery Group of Los Angeles and Dr Barnajian to anyone and everyone. Thanks again to everyone there. read more

These group of doctors specially Dr. Jason cohen are absolutely amazing. If you need care, you should definitely see him and have him as your doctor. The amount of special care, compassion and attention to his patients and attention to details is unmatched. Highly recommend him. read more

Be very careful trusting Surgery Group of LA with your confidential personal and medical information. As you can see by the attached picture, Surgery Group LA did not have good security measures in place as it relates to their IT network and systems. Their patients records were breached on July 8, 2023 and I am barely JUST NOW, 8 months later, getting a letter in the mail notifying me that all of my personal information was comprised during this breach. This includes my social security number, address, name, medical records & history, medications, diagnoses, billing information, insurance information, date of birth, and financial information. So basically, the attackers have literally all of my confidential information regarding my entire personal life. Imagine the havoc that can ensue from this. They are basically me at this point. This is absolutely unacceptable for a healthcare provider which is supposed to adhere to strict HIPAA standards. As a medical service provider, it your duty, above all other businesses, to ensure that you have the most secure network & systems infrastructure in place since you handle such sensitive information. It is your duty to your patients that you have a 24/7 top tier cybersecurity team monitoring and constantly testing the security of your network to ensure that your patients information is secured and private. Surgery Group LA failed me and several hundreds of other patients. As we all know, this information gets sold on the dark web and I can only imagine how many bad actors may have my personal information and in how many ways they will try to exploit. This is so incredibly stressful. Like I said, I don't understand how these medical service providers have such garbage security postures as it pertains to their network. You literally handle some of the most confidential information, yet you were probably being cheap and not investing in the security of your infrastructure. And this is what happens. Will never come to this provider again. You've lost all my trust and have given a nightmare of a headache to deal with for who knows how long. There should be reparations paid not some lame 12 month free credit check service. I will be looking at California law and exercising whatever rights I have as more needs to be done than just a 12 month free credit check service. This is literally my entire life that you just handled incredibly poorly and irresponsibly and now its out on the public internet on the hands of bad actors. Unacceptable. read more

The Surgery Group of Los Angeles - Thanks Surgery Group of LA for handling my confidential and personal information so irresponsibly - Surgeons Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I came here to see Dr. Barnajian as a referral. My experience with him and this office was phenomenal. The staff is friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. They made me feel comfortable and like family right away. Dr. Barnajian is amazing. Makes you feel comfortable, explains things well and makes sure all your questions and concerns are answered. It felt like he was really wanted the best outcome for me and treated me well. The check in staff is amazing. They are fast. They are thorough, answer all questions and a scheduling follow ups is easy. The real big hero in this office is Mayra. I don't even know where to begin. She worked so hard in squeezing me in for a procedure within 2 days. We got all the documentation needed, covid testes, blood work, etc all done within 2 days so they can accommodate a procedure based on my schedule. The way she followed up with me via email and phone and explained the process was definitely comforting. Mayra if you are reading this, thank you. It's already discomforting knowing that something could be wrong with a person, but it's people like you and Dr. Barnajian that make us feel comfort and home. The support you all give is unbelievable! read more

I took my mom who was recently diagnosed with cancer to see Dr. Cohen. My mom was so scared and indecisive . Dr Cohen was so gentle and so understanding where my mom's comes from. He was very compassionate and caring. I was so comfortable with the treatment he offered my mom. He explained everything in simple and understandable fashion and we left knowing exactly what needs to be done for her cancer. Dr Cohen was highly recommended by a couple of friends and family doctors, but he was even more impressive in person. I waited to write this review until I had more of an interaction with him. After a few follow ups, I'm now so grateful that my mom went to him. I highly recommend Dr Cohen and his staff. read more

Amazing, awesome, simply the best ! Everyone is extremely courteous and helpful! Mayra is the best , she goes out her way to help and gets things done !! Dr. Nasseri makes you feel like family always understanding and extremely caring!! He is the best !! read more

Mayra, Dr. Nasseri, and the whole team at Surgery Group LA were truly amazing. I had an extensive surgery that had to be coordinated with three different surgeons and a number of pre-op requirements. Mayra kept in touch with me through every single phase leading up to and post surgery. She texted, called, and emailed appropriately for each situation and acted with urgency when needed. Dr. Nasseri was thorough and transparent the entire time while providing excellent customer service keeping me comfortable throughout the entire process. Post surgery I'm doing great thanks this team and I can't say enough how much I appreciate them and their care of me. read more

The only positive thing I can say is they have warm bodies to answer the telephone. Good luck actually scheduling an appointment to receive care. Your time and paperwork will be wasted here. And the care? Pffft... Run, don't walk, elsewhere. The worst- read more

I have been extremely blessed to have Mayra Torres help me with coordinating my surgery, appointments, providing feedback and direction. Mayra is definitely someone who is proactive, professional, caring, great attitude, extremely helpful, patient, and provides beyond exceptional customer support and you should be lucky to have her. She made the process of going through these difficult times in having surgery very easy to understand and I could not have been more grateful to her. I am beyond thankful and Cedars Sinai need more people as great as she is. She and Doctor Yosef Nasseri completely exceeded my expectations and I am so tremendously happy with the care they provided. Dr. Nasseri is gentle, warm, he understands and listens to my concerns and is definitely a SUPER GREAT DOCTOR. I just wanted to say THANK YOU DOCTOR NASSERI AND THANK YOU MAYRA FOR ALL YOUR HELP AND ALL THAT YOU DO. Bless your hearts and thank you!! read more

I can't express how thankful I am for Dr. Ellenhorn and his team; I feel so blessed to have found them as I live in Texas. He took such great care of me every step of the way, from reaching out to my insurance, to the surgery, to the aftercare. I am so so grateful - he truly changed my life for the better. I felt safe, cared for and like everything was going to be okay throughout the entire process. Thank you so so much Dr. Ellenhorn for all you do and all that you did for me. read more

Dr Arena.....amazing. Patient, caring, super smart, attentive, goes above and beyond to make sure you are ok. I developed an unexpected and stubborn axillary seroma after a lymph node removal. Dr. Arena went into action immediately. The seroma took a month to go away, and Dr. Arena empathetically did all she could to see that I was omk during this drama. I honestly believe she would have made a house call if I needed her to. This doctor is a gem!! Her staff there at the surgery center is hardworking and loving. Thanks everyone. read more

You never expect to see yourself or your loved ones in a tragic situation until you're in the midst of it. For when those unfortunate moments come, I'm glad and beyond grateful for people like the team over at Surgery Group LA. Dr. Barnajian is amazing. Even with his calming and reassuring demeanor he is still very straight forward and thorough when explaining the surgical procedures. Also, the receptionist and nurses are truly some of the best. They seem like genuine, friendly people, and VERY patient with us. (Thank you Mayra!) Great, professional service and exceptional medical care. You'll be in good hands here. read more

Dr. Ellenhorn is the best doctor! He is an expert in breast cancer field. He is so kind and professional. My mom's surgery was supposed be scheduled February because the hospital operation rooms are packed. After I talked to dr. Ellenhorn's assistant Juliet about my concern, my worries, she tried so hard and pushed the operation to mid of Jan. I really want to say thanks to Dr. Ellenhorn. He saved my mom's life. My mom's tumor is perfectly removed, and she needs no hormone therapy. I wish the best to Dr. Ellenhorn, Juliet and their families. Thank you so much read more

Dr. Steven Colquhoun is the BEST liver surgeon. He is as good as as it gets seriously the cream of the crop in my opinion. He performed liver surgery on me in 2003. At that time I was raising a little boy. I just wanted to be a great mom for him, and I believed so much in Dr. Colquhoun. Dr Colquhoun saved two lives that day and maybe more. Dr. Colquhoun is a wonderfully gifted and talented surgeon with impeccable skills. His attention to detail, and conservative thought process in his approach are quite impressive. At the time of my surgery there were not as many options as there are available today. I hope I wont require additional procedures, but Dr. Colquhoun is a world class surgeon no doubt about it. I interviewed several surgeons back then and as soon as I saw him I knew he was the surgeon that I would choose. Also, he was trained by the best. I was so blessed that he did my surgery. I am so appreciative and forever grateful to him. He is truly devoted to his profession as well as his patients care. Dr.Colquhoun is back at Cedars Sinai now, and I hope they never let him go because he is an outstanding doctor and surgeon. He was greatly missed by so many. He is exactly the kind of doctor all future generations of dr's should aspire to. He has been needed at many places, but I am thrilled he is at Cedars now with Surgery Group LA. I had a recent visit with Dr. Colquhoun due to some other health issues, and It was amazing to see him after 19 years. I am so happy that he will be back on my health care team overseeing things. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted. I trust him completely. He will surely leave no stone unturned. He is extraordinary and a perfectionist. For years I have mostly been my own doctor, but now I have the best I mean the greatest doctors and could not feel any better. I know how lucky I am. Deciding on a doctor is no easy task and my screening process should be a reality show to be honest. I have very high standards when screening for a doctor, and for a surgeon well you can imagine. When necessary Dr. Colquhoun will reach out to other doctors to coordinate care. When a doctor does this you know you're in great hands. Dr. Colquhoun is very caring, completely dedicated to his craft and his attention to detail is spot on. He doesn't miss a thing. He listens and explains things very well. He is deeply admired and respected by his peers. Thank you Dr. Colquhoun from the bottom of my heart. May Gd continue to bless you and watch over you keep you safe, healthy and happy so you can continue to save countless lives. Thank you to the amazing surgery group LA. It seems as thou all their doctors are brilliant and admired by their patients for their amazing abilities. Warmly, Eileen Golestani read more

I have been going to Surgery Group LA for almost a year now. I went to Surgery Group LA with severe rear end pain and found out I had a pilonidal cyst. For anyone that has ever had a pilonidal cyst - they'll know it's an excruciating pain in the butt (no pun intended). After being initially treated by Dr. Moshe Barnajian, him and his incredible team helped me schedule the complete cyst removal. Dr. Barnajian was so patient and walked me through the entire procedure. Fast forward to a year later and I am still cyst free! I recently had a scare where I thought i may have developed another cyst so I immediately called Dr. Barnajian's office and his team was able to schedule me for an appointment within two hours. The customer service and friendliness of his team is unmatched and unlike anything I've EVER experienced in the medical industry. I also predominantly worked with Mayra who helped me with all of my billing questions, my scheduling needs, and all my surgical post-op questions. She is AMAZING! I cannot stress this enough - if you live in the Southern California area and you are experiencing a health issue that Dr. Barnajian can address - book an appointment with him and his team IMMEDIATELY. Thank you so much again to Dr. Barnajian, Mayra, and the entire team at Surgery Group LA! - Daniel Pires and read more

Dr Nasseri has been great to see, I had a cyst excision and it was very stress free / I felt taken care of. But the main reason I'm writing this is because Mayra at the front desk is a true hero!! She helped me navigate costs and payments way beyond what she could've done and saved me a ton. Three cheers for Mayra !!! And everyone else at the front desk!! read more

Dr. Cohen and SGLA are the gold standard of medical care. Dr. Cohen is very patient and spent time going over the procedure before, during and after the surgery. The surgery went great and he followed up with me to ensure my recovery was going well. The office is very well managed and competent. His assistant Liz was great to work with and very competent (as was anyone I spoke to). I recommend Dr. Cohen and SGLA whole heartedly and thank them for their care. read more

My primary care physician referred me to Dr. Jason Cohen at the Surgery Group of Los Angeles to remove what turned out to be a benign mass from my jawline. Dr. Cohen told me about possible, but highly unlikely, risks of nerve damage. I was a bit nervous about surgery on my face, but felt in good hands with Dr. Cohen. It's been 4 months and I am very pleased with the outcome. There was no nerve damage. And, NO VISIBLE SCAR. I've done a couple of brief follow up visits with him to monitor the healing. I would highly recommend Dr. Jason Cohen for surgery. He's a 5 star guy. read more

First off, would love to give a big shout out to Mayra & all the other amazing employees there that always welcome my family & I in. They certainly know how to create a caring environment for patients. I actually look forward to my appointments with Dr. Nasseri because of how nice everyone in the office are. Dr. Nasseri is hands down the best surgeon. He is attentive & it really shows that he cares for his patients. I knew I was in great hands from just my first visit with him. My surgery has gone really well & everything is healing up nicely thanks to him & his amazing staff. Truly could not be happier with the outcome of this :) read more

I will forever be grateful for Dr Barnajian and his team. I was referred to Dr Barnajian by my GI after finding a cancerous tumor in my colon. I could not have asked for a better experience (and trust me, I had a few bad experiences during my search for the right surgeon). Barnajian's staff is incredibly attentive and kind. They got me into their office immediately after informing them of my situation. Their office is comfortable, clean and spacious. Dr Barnajian has a wonderful energy, he is always positive and encouraging. He is thorough, informative and happy to take his time and give you his full attention. It has now been about six weeks since my surgery and it is as if nothing ever happened. I feel great, look great, and even my scars are minimal! Barnajian and his team have been so fantastic throughout this journey, quickly answering every call, text message and email I send. I am lucky to have found them! Thank you Dr Barnajian, Mayra, and the whole team at Surgery Group LA! You guys are amazing! read more

Hello, I am pleased to give my Dear Doctor Moshe Barnajian a 5 star for his professionalism, care, Knowledge, skill, and his attention to detail. He is truly a gem as a doctor and as a human being.
