Hind Al-Azawi's Online Review Report Card

Today I took my grandma to see this doctor and to make the long story short, when she was going to see her in the room, my grandma wanted to use the restroom and she told her to hold it, and insisted to ask her if she could not hold it. She said no, and asked her in a rude way if she was “ leaking”. I told her yes but she was wearing a diaper. Then she told us in a rude way that if she was “leaking” she could not see her, that she should be in a convalescent home at her age and that over there somebody else will see her. I asked her why Because my grandma lives with her son, she walks without help, she cooks and clean the house herself and has a good memory andshe even prepare bags with groceries for the poor, but she insisted that she would not examiner her if she was leaking because they didn’t have somebody to come and clean her urine!!!!(?), and that “at her age she should be in a convalescent. Long story short, she ask us in a rude way to leave and go back to referring Md.

She is very Sweet person. Gave me two C-section’s. But I can say she opened me a very long Length That was unnecessarily.

First off, Dr. Al Azawi is a really nice person. BUT I still felt compelled to write a review to prevent others from experiencing the same "pains" as I did. If you don't know me in real life, I am for the most part, very relaxed and easy-going person. I don't usually make a fuss and it takes a lot for me to get annoyed or upset.With that said, after my experiences with this office as well as Lakewood IPA...I made the switch to Memorial Care Med Group and it was the best decision I've ever made. To give you a little background, I am about 25 weeks pregnant. I started coming to this office in Dec 2021. Things to note about the office (as of 03/22)- They just moved from Paramount to Lakewood, right next to the hospital. Note that it is TINY, which causes a back up of patients. I had an 11am appointment and was not seen until 12pm. - They DO NOT have an ultrasound machine. You have to go to Lakewood Regional which sucks because 1) it takes forever for insurance to approve the visit 2) you can't see your baby as often 3) you end up having to take more time off of work just for these check in appointments 4) if you need an ultrasound urgently, it will still take about 2 weeks - They DO NOT handle blood tests in their office anymore. You have to go to a lab, which often takes forever because you have to walk-in. Appointments are rarely available until about 3 weeks out. - She delivers at Anaheim Regional, NOT LB Memorial or Los Alamitos- The office is old school and are way behind on technology- Communication between the staff and patient are very poor. I felt like I had to follow up on everything because nothing was ever done the first time. And when I did follow up, some of staff had attitude - Some of my check in appointments were honestly a complete waste of time. At my most recent appointment, after waiting an hour, the Dr came in with handheld doppler to hear a heartbeat and that was it. She didn't do any physical checks, nor did I even pee in a cup. I didn't understand why I had to come in. - The doctor (again very nice) is wishy washy and changes her mind a lot. She doesn't seem to pay attention or listen well. Another reviewer mentioned this, and it's totally true. 1) Scheduled me for a glucose test where I had to change my diet 3 days prior and fast...come appointment day, she tells me I am too early and we have to wait another 3 weeks 2) Scheduled me for a physical check but didn't end up doing it 3) Had to do my Pap smear multiple times because she didn't take enough samples 4) Scheduled appointments every other week when OB's normally see you once a month...total waste of timeThe doctor is sweet but so many things added up over the course of 3 months, that I couldn't take it anymore. I'm so glad I made the switch where I know I am in better hands.

Our family thanks you so much for delivering my baby and making sure My baby and I healthy, and when I was in a lot of pain you calmed my nerves, such a sweet doctor my surgery went well, my husband thanks you for calming him down also thank you Dr.Hind

Dr.Azawi is an awesome doctor. I’ve seen her for few times in the past 2 months. She was great in explaining to me everything I need to know and be aware of to have a good pregnancy and hopefully an easy delivery. I can’t say enough about her…. Thx Dr.

I have only great things to say about Dr.Azawi she deliver my 3 babies via C section and she's so amazing I can verily see the scars. Thank you Dr. Azawi

I had a visit today with Dr. Azawi at her clinic in paramount , I had never experience such a placent visit , from the minute I walked in, the receptionist was awesome to the Doctor that took the time to explained the procedure she was going to performed I highly recommend her and her employees

The Dr. is nice but I'm talking to her and she's ignoring me . I told her I was having some issue and she wasn't looking at me and said " thank goodness " . My husband & I looked confused as to why she would say such thing. I had to repeat it again so she could just end up telling me she had no idea what to do about my issue. Then a week before my first ultrasound they call me to tell me I can't get it done because they just found out the technician retired. So now I have to wait till they find a new facility to send me to so that I can get it done. They no longer do it in there facility. Then they tell me I have an appointment at 11am...the dr isn't even in the building till 12! So I'm waiting there for an hour and still have to wait in the room another 30min to be seen !

Love love love this women. She delivered both my children via csection and she did such a great job. I wouldn't feel comfortable going to anyone else but her she always made me feel comfortable and at peace that everything I went through will be fine.

Dr. Azawi is such a sweetheart. When I found out I was pregnant I wanted to make sure I had a Dr. who cared about her patient and didn't treat me like just another #. I researched and found that many women loved Dr Azawi. I am now 41 weeks pregnant (past due) and she has been so understanding and helpful towards me and my unborn child. She always greets her patients with a smile, she always walks in the room and compliments me, and I know I'm not the only one because I hear her interact with the rest. Her favorite line is "my hands are cold but my heart is warm" and it couldn't be more true :). Also, her nurse Ligia is just as nice and helpful, you will interact more with her as she takes care of you first along with all paperwork. She is very knowledgeable and kind. One thing I must warn you, her office in Paramount has horrible parking so I always arrive 30-40 mins early to try to find parking, if your out of luck and time you have to find street parking. Other than that I'm glad I found this office before Dr Azawi retires, she is an older lady. Yes, aside from office being dated the service is great...so what that your not in a prestige office, what matters is the care you get. Very professional.
