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.

A complete waste! Go elsewhere!
Dr. Saririan spent almost the entire time editorializing about dermatologists than attending to my issues. I have severe eczema, atopic dermatitis, and was seeking allergy testing to find a trigger for it. Though he admits he is unqualified in dermatology, he claims that adult eczema doesn't exist and dermatologists don't know what they're doing. Millions of adult eczema sufferers and dermatologists might beg to differ.Additionally, his office didn't inform me to stop taking antihistamines 5 days before my appointment, so he had me go for expensive and inconclusive blood tests.In his follow up he went out of his way to report that I don't have atopic dermatitis, though he didn't examine me in any way for that and it had previously been diagnosed by two dermatologists.If you're looking for answers to your allergy concerns, I would recommend going elsewhere.

Awful bedside manners and very arrogant
This Doctor should NOT be an on-call physician (after hours) for pediatric patients. He has no patience to speak with parents and lacks empathy and is very abrupt. If he is working on call. Caution alert and beware. He seemed that we were inconveniencing him and only wanted to end the call, while we have a sick child that needed care. He hung up on me while talking about my child’s medical needs. I am thankful he is not my child’s doctor and he only sees adults. Grateful for the allergist we have at this practice but not impressed Dr. Kris Saririan. Management needs to have some additional training on communication and sensitivity training for Kris.

Excellent bedside manner!
Dr. Saririan Was extremely thorough in his exam and questions, and was friendly, kind, and spent a lot of time explaining everything to me. Don’t listen to these naysayers! Office staff wonderful, too. Highly recommended.

I am furious at how I was treated and how my health was put at risk by this doctor. No one should be subject to reckless medical testing as this doctor did to me. No one should be brushed off when they have a serious allergic reaction. After 3 phone calls in 48 hours I went to Urgent Care instead. No one should be tested without adequate information and safety protocols. My medical records were wrong and never updated correctly. Stay as far away from this doctor and practice as possible

Wonderful physician, I cannot say enough. Takes the time with his patients making sure he answers all questions and provides his feedback/recommendations. One of the best I've encountered in my 52 years.
