He is one of the best I strongly recommend him

An excellent physician. He's thorough and friendly and will spend more time with you than most doctors do in order to answer your questions. Highly recommended

Dr. Mehdizadeh and his staffs are very professional and fast. I was able to get seen and get done in an hour. They got me inside right away. I trust these people.

I don't think I've ever been disappointed in a doctor enough to write a review, but I am now.My husband has ALS....one of the worst diagnoses one could get. As his disease has progressed over the past 3 years he has required much medical intervention. Sifting through all the information is like learning a new language. Fortunately we are part of an ALS Clinic at Cedars Sinai Hospital that has exceeded our expectations in terms of care and support. It was decided several months back that my husband needed to have a G-tube put in (also known as a feeding tube). He is no longer able to swallow well enough to receive any nutrition orally. Our doctors at Cedars sent us to Dr. Mehdizadeh. We made an appointment with no hesitation and went for a consultation on April 19th to set up the procedure for May 9th. We saw the doctor for a minute before the procedure and for maybe 2 minutes after that. If that weren't bad enough, Dr. Mehdizadeh (nor his office) EVER CALLED MY HUSBAND ONE SINGLE TIME after we came home. Let me repeat....NOT ONE SINGLE TIME. I had some questions soon after we came home and the best I could get was his nurse asking him my questions and getting an incomplete answer from him, via her. Really? Is my husband that unimportant to him?  It was not what I ever expected from a medical professional. I advised our doctors at Cedars, who were receptive to my input. Then I moved on. Fast forward to about one week ago. My husband had some issues with pain and discomfort with the tube. I called my husband's prior GI doctor who he's used in the past for colonoscopies, etc. He was very nice but said the best thing would be to call the doctor who put in the tube. I called Dr. M's office again and spoke to his nurse. I told her in no uncertain terms about how the doctor never followed up with us after the May procedure and how disappointed we were. I told her it was OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE that I speak with Dr. Mehdizadeh. She promised to have him call me back right away. That was Wed. 8/15. Today is Wed. 8/22 and he has never called us back! (Fortunately my husband's wound has improved on it's own). There are no words for my outrage at this doctor's total lack of compassion, professionalism and lack of integrity!!

The struggle to find a good GI doctor seemed almost impossible. After years of trying I finally found Dr. Mehdizadeh. He listens to what I tell him without jumping to standard conclusions. His bedside manner is wonderful. He is a really good doctor. I highly recommend him.
