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.

Went in with a few issues. He knew how to address and suggest potential treatment. Very knowledgeable doctor to deal with.

Dr. Babakhanian is patient, asks many questions, walks you through examinations, procedures, takes notes, is very thorough and thoughtful. I felt cared for. He is what we all wish in doctors. I'm blessed I was referred to him for my GI concerns.

Doc Babakhanian is Exceptional
Doc patiently listens, takes time to understand concerns. Gave me multiple options and worked with me on a plan. Gave undivided attention. It is so easy to talk to doc, when you can't express doc helps. Doc has helped me in the past to mitigate bloating and other ailments. Nelia and Nairi will help to get an appointment. Doc is one of the best in the field. If you need a colonoscopy doc is the BEST, makes everything so easy and comfortable.
