Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great Dr, Terrible Office Staff
2 weeks later and they still haven't even submitted my order for injections to my insurance. If you expect efficiency look elsewhere. Appointments in about 5 months.

inattentive
This review is in regards to a treatment my mother got first visit we found him kind , with excellent bedside manner,Steroid injection was schedules as follow up .Meanwhile mom was diagnosed with AVN and recommended to put a hold on steroid injection .I Called/ messaged Dr Ahadian multiple times, finally when I messaged that we would not come to procedure unless we are sure he is aware of my mom's diagnosis, only then nurse called and said it was fine and he does local injections to alleviate pain until surgical intervention.Injection was done a week after we saw a surgeon and now surgery is on hold until steroid effect are gone. unfortunately pain is still there this should be basic knowledge to a pain specialist.disappointing outcome

Little to no help
After my Rheumatologist ordered an MRI on my Thoracic Spine area Dr. Ahadian and I had our first visit on June 15, 2022. He decided on one injection to help with two Herniated Disks. I asked why one and he said he want to see if it would drift down to the second one. The injection came two weeks later. After the procedure he told me to make an appointment for three months out. When I tried to get the appointment I was told the clerk was busy and to call when I got home. I called and the clerk said she didn't have time and she would call me later. I waited a few days and it slipped my mind except at night when I couldn't sleep from the pain. When I did make a call that got through it was around two months later. The Clerk said the first appointment was more than three months out. Today was the day of the appointment and I had traffic and the parking is a bit remote, 8 minute walk to the office. I was ten minutes late and they wouldn't see me. He didn't help my pain anyway so I left.
