***Update 5/16/2021*** Had Dr Bad done his job, I wouldn't of had to suffer like I have for the past 15 months with testing, painful exams & procedures, infections, surgery, and still recovering. Thankfully, I never returned to Dr Bad and listened to that little voice inside my head & bladder and sought other Doctors. I had a serious problem & condition but all Dr Bad did was nothing but try to prescribe heavy narcotics, opposed to conducting a more thorough examination like my other urologists did. The first urologist I saw (virtually mind you) couldn't understand why Dr Bad DID NOT check my bladder CC volume on the day of my appointment and why he DID NOT order an ultrasound scan of my bladder on the day of my appointment. Had he DONE THAT, my condition would of been revealed 15mo ago. Instead, Dr Bad tried to peddle drugs and send me on my way, and told to come back in 4 months if the problem doesn't get better. At the time of my appointment I already had this serious condition that I eventually found out requires surgery! But Dr Bad didn't care. He did not listen. He was more than Bad - he was awful! Had he done what all 3 of the other urologists who've been treating me have done, I wouldn't had spent the past year+ dealing with all this & still recovering. AND had Dr Bad done his job, I would not of wasted over a year of my life and would of been better & recovered from this several months ago and not living in pain & distress for so long! Of course I filed a complaint with Cedars Sinai about Dr Bad long ago. But I've refrained from updating this review until now because I'm very private when it comes to personal matters & health and I don't like to live in the past - who needs the stress. But thankfully Cedars Sinai has other wonderful Dr's like Dr Brian Benway & Dr Jennifer Anger and Dr Amid Gupta. Dr Benway suggested & ordered the tests for me that Dr Bad never did. Dr Benway was a virtual appointment without even being able to examine me!. Dr Benway "listened" to me carefully and said "I think I know what the problem is & what's wrong with you." Then after my ultrasound results proved Dr Benway's theory, he referred me to Dr Jennifer Anger (who's very friendly :) for additional exams & testing and she recently performed my surgery. Do yourself a favor and avoid Dr Bad at all costs and go see Dr Benway & Dr Anger, who will listen and treat you with kindness & respect and they know how to do their jobs because they're amazing, fantastic and caring Doctors. ---------------------- *June 3, 2020* ***MY RESPONSE TO Parisa:*** Thank you for taking the time and a whopping 3 months since my visit, to address my issue, by listing Dr Bad's resume & LinkedIn profile. However nothing in your response clarifies nor addresses my horrible experience with him other than you trying to defend him for things you don't know other than listing his credentials, and making excuses. You were not there during my visit and did it ever occur to you that perhaps you lack the understanding that Dr Bad Bedside Manner & Dr Feel Bad was simply having a bad day? And if he's such a wonderful, experienced Dr, then you both should be embarrassed for how he treated me that day. And btw, I have seen 20 different Dr's within the CSHA network, and your Dr is the only one who doesn't allow patients records available to view via the Ceders Sinai Patient Portal. So not only was he awful the day of my office visit, your office lacks the technical aspects that all other 20 Dr's I've seen and their offices provide. In addition, did you know that Ceders Sinai encourages their patients & Dr'a to utilize their Patient Portal? And lastly, my negative review & experience didn't just fall from the sky because there's others here who feel the same as me. Thanks again, and thank you for your service read more

I learned about dr. B Bamshad through our persian radio station 670 am KIRN ,. He sounded as he knew what he is talking so I made an appointment . When I met him without consulting with me about his plan of treatment for my prostate , he immediately used an instrument which I did not get slightest benefit from it but he had rushed a bill for thousands of dollars for my insurance company !!!!! Then he prescribed a medicine which I took for whole month without any benefit and when I complained his response was : KEEP IT TAKING !!!! I can not believe how he has gotten an MD . degree ?? THOSE PEOPLE WHO HAVE GIVING HIM 5 STARS MUST BE HIS FRIENDS !! read more

I'm a patient of Doctor Bamshad's and find him to be really quite thorough in the knowledge of his craft. He explains everything in laymen terms in a way that makes sense and helps you better understand whatever your health issues are. He tells you the results and makes suggestions to benefit the patient, along with follow-ups. His staff including the nurses are really helpful and compassionate. I can honestly state that they have been all that with me as a patient. When I read negative things about any Doctors I've been to, I simply DO NOT understand it. What patients have to remember is, "YOU" as a patient must have patience, be polite to the staff and Doctor. Keep a journal of your issues and address them to the Doctor. Being rude does not benefit anyone, and certainly not your health. S. Selbst read more

I think Dr. Bamshad is one of the best doctors. He explains everything well so you know exactly the results good or bad. He is very thorough and provides all the tests you need to properly evaluate your condition. His staff is very friendly and makes you feel confortable. I know I am in the best of hands. He does not rush you. I told him I was looking for a primary care doctor and the next day I got a telepone call from a primary care doctor and set up an appointment. read more

BE AWARE!!! Most unprofessional doctors office I have ever encountered. They told me I was in network when I booked my appointment and then 25 minutes before my appointment which I waited 2 weeks for they call and tell me they made an error and are not in network. So I cancelled my Christmas plans with my family for this appointment because I was in so much pain and now I'm by myself for the holidays because of this horrible unprofessional office. Do not go here they do not know what they are talking about and they don't care about the pain of the patients at all. I can't believe this place is even in business with how they run their office. I hope this message gets to someone and they don't go here because they will waste your time, your money and they are VERY UNPROFESSIONAL! UPDATE READ BELOW, NOW THEY ARE BLAMING ME. WHAT A JOKE OF A DOCTORS OFFICE, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND GO ELSEWHERE!!! read more

I am very happy with the care I received by Dr. Bamshad. Dr. Bamshad and his staff have really been a great help. Contrary to one reviewer I see here, he definitely has a great "bedside manner" and always explains things to me. My exams and surgery went very well. Very happy with Dr. Bamshad and happy to have him as my doctor. read more

Dr Bamshad and his staff have gone above and beyond for me more than once. Diana has been able to get me in when I've been in pain from kidney stones and Angel is a professional and kind nurse. As a nurse myself, I appreciate being able to go with my list of questions and receiving answers and allowed to make choices about the plan of care that's best for me. He didn't insist on surgery but we weighed out the risks and benefits of various options as a team. I have had a recent substandard misdiagnosis from an urgent care recently and was told I just needed a massage, that the knot felt in my back was from stress when ultrasound showed a more serious kidney problem. I do not have an easy quick fix at the moment but what I do have are a concrete diagnosis and a clear direction I can live with. I am extremely pleased. read more

This man is a joke of a urologist. I met with him because of a condition I had in my glans, after observing the issue he came to the conclusion that he had "never seen something like this", "I don't know what to do", "I'm not sure how you would recover after all the scars", after all of this he decides to leave the appointment for something, few minutes later he comes back and he recommends me to not do anything because of how cosmetically bad it looked. 4 months later I am recovering from a successful surgery done by a great doctor. I guess a second opinion is really beneficial. read more

Dr. Bamshad and Staff are so great, my grandfather was a patient and I was so jealous of how they love and cared for him. I looked for to the appointments. I highly recommended Dr. Bamshad and Staff. Thanks again. read more

Thank you Dr. Bamshad!!! The first time I walked into his office last week, I felt confident that I was going to be well looked after - and I was! Diana at the desk was immediately friendly and felt like an old friend. She assured me that everything was going to be fine in a very sincere way. The entire staff seemed to enjoy being at work. I was impressed. Once I went into the examination room Angel introduced herself and was also very comforting. Then, the fabulous Olivia came in to help me! She is a joy, and both she and Dr. Bamshad made me laugh - yes, LAUGH - a lot! They are consummate professionals through and through but have a wonderful sense of humor that I truly appreciated. It sounds weird but I'm actually looking forward to my next appointment! Thank all of you for making my visit to the urologist - fun! Sincerely, Lloyd read more

Thank you, Dr Bamshad! I was able to come back to normal life because of treatment and surgery you provided! read more

Dr. Bamshad has been assisting me with numerous bouts of kidney stones over the past 5 years. He is incredibly knowledgeable about all areas of his study, and respects you as a patient. He explains things to you and provides you with all alternatives for your specific situation. His staff, including Diana and Olivia are the BEST. They make sure your experience is pleasant and they truly care about their patients. Couldn't be more satisfied about Dr. Bamshad and his entire staff. THANK YOU!!! read more

Dr. Bamshad is EVERYTHING a doctor should be ... talented, concerned, caring and exceptionally capable. Dr. Bamshad has treated both my father and husband for years. He truly cares for his patients, and is ALWAYS available to them, no matter what time of day or night. He has driven to the emergency room 3 times to perform emergency procedures for us, and always checks in soon afterwards to check on recovery. He is an incredible doctor and the BEST in his profession. We truly cannot ever thank him enough for his exceptional service!! read more

Irresponsible doctor. The doctor answers personal phone calls during your appointment. Office is in the full mess. They do not respond to patient's request for records. Doctor does not call with follow ups on test results. Waiting time in the office on average is 1 hour. read more

Do not go to this doctor!! He almost killed our father. He didn't explain the procedure, the aftermath or the side effects. He is a joke! Ceder Sinai shame on you! And shame on this doctor... don't trust him. Don't go to him. read more

Dr Bamshad and his staff are very caring and personal. He is a world class urologist who provides excellent care.

Dr Bamshad and his staff are fantastic. They make an uncomfortable situation so much more pleasant. The entire staff from reception to nurses are great. read more

Dr. Bamshad and his staff are top notch. He was my surgeon nearly a decade ago for a procedure and it has been that long since I had been in for a visit, but when I recently needed to see a urologist, there was no doubt I was going back to him. Glad I did too, because within minutes he diagnosed the issue, prescribed meds, and a week later I'm feeling 100% better. read more

Dr. Bamsdad is a great doctor. I've been going to him for almost one year. He is through in his approach to urology. He explains all his procedures so one understands its importance. He discusses all the results of his tests. He is a friendly but professional doctor with a caring nature. He is tops in his field. read more

An attentive urologist who cares about his patients. He took extensive blood tests to evaluate me and make sure I was ok. Was nice to have reassurances and they've been great about follow up as well. Diana is friendly and considerate and they're in an easy to find location. Be aware there is another Dr Bamshad in the opposite building however he is a different practice, read more

Avoid at all cost!!! The office is a mess. Appointment times doesn't matter. You will spend an hour waiting in best case scenario. The doctor doesn't call with the results of the tests. They wanted me to come into the office again to wait for 2 hours to see the doctor for 2 minute to tell me the results of the basic test, just to bill me and my insurance one more time. Next, the doctor promised to call back to schedule a surgery after submitting my claim to the insurance and I have never heard from him and or his office since. When I called the office and requested the records of the ultrasounds, the office refused to fax anything stating I have to notify them in advance. When I said I would come and pick it up myself they said they would not release any records to me. After that I called the imaging center directly and got my results faxed within a minute. I have wasted two months of my time with this doctor (I am not even talking about money). read more

A wonderful, caring doctor. Very knowledgable with a great bed side manner. He and his staff went out of their way to get my surgery scheduled. I was very happy to be under his care. read more
