Carlos Saad

I’m very happy with this visit. Dr. Carlos Saad, Gastroenterologist. Very professional, attentive and highly knowledgeable to understand my symptoms. Plus, he speaks perfect Spanish so the communication was clearly and objective. Thank you, UCI for bringing him to your excellent team!

Best gastroenterologist ever!!!

Nobody does it better! Dr. Saad is an outstanding gastroenterologist. He listens intently to your concerns and responds in clear specific ways. He is a perfect combination of refined clinical acumen and kindness. He has helped me through years of debilitating liver disease. I highly recommend Dr. Saad!

Excellent help. UCI Medical is phenominal. They have So many amazing resources and everyone has access to the records so they all know the full story which is imperative in my instance because there are a couple of complicating factors.

Cannot say enough good things about Dr. Saad!

Dr. Saad at UCI was exceptional! Very informative and knowledgeable.

I have been a patient of Dr. Saads for 20 years and have always respected his advice.

Awesome doctor! No need to go anywhere else. Best place for the dreaded colonoscopy!

Dr. Saad is definitely one in a million! I went to him about 6 yrs ago and he took very good care of me. Not only did he help me, he gave us 2 yrs more with my father in law. On a Sunday my father in law had been seeing his own Drs for over 1yr, being treated for everything but what was the real problem? I immediately called Dr Saad on Sunday he looked at everything films,x-rays, Dr reports, and said to immediately! take my father in law to St. Josephs hospital. There he was diagnosed with a" rare intestinal cancer" that unfortunately had now spread. We are ever so grateful, the care the hospital gave was just as fantastic! words cannot describe how Dr Saad gave our father a dignified and quality of life he had left, and for the family, the precious time we had to enjoy his last years! Dr Saad went beyond the call of duty? how many Drs would really take a call on a Sunday? let alone he had never seen him? he truly cared!!! anyone that will listen and has seen Drs. understands this Dr.Saad is a rare breed in our Medical field. I now live in San Diego, but will not see any other Dr. then Dr. Saad.

I went to Dr. Saad after years of going to the same group of GI doctors.(Stanton, Ennis and Nagarian). I've had GERD for over 23 years and it had been somewhat manageable until recently. My previous doctors just kept throwing more and more meds on the problem and changing up the times of taking them. My husband asked me to get a second opinion after night after night waking up with heartburn, changing my diet, propping myself up etc. etc. Saad was the first doctor who said that I was TOO young and healthy to be suffering with this so much and that he wanted to run tests to really get to the bottom of this. WOW...a doctor who really wanted to help me! He said, 'You are only in your forties, of a perfect weight, follow a good diet and don't smoke. I can't tell you to change your life style...we need to fix this'. Anyway, after several blood tests, colonoscopy, endoscopy and more I was referred to a wonderful surgeon by him (wow...a GI doctor who is not afraid to refer!). My esophagus muscle never closes...always stays open! Anyway, I just had LINX surgery done this week to correct it and am looking forward to getting my life (and sleep back). No more meds (which cause ostheoporosis) and no more restrictions! I cannot recommend Dr. Saad enough. He is a rare bird and I am fortunate enough to have found him!
