    I was in excruciating pain the entire month of February until seeing Dr Natalie Hammond at LAOSS IN…read moreTARZANA. She recommended PT and gave me great advice. Staff is always kind and wonderful. I am healed now and am very grateful for their care. Highly recommend.

    Tarzana , Los Angeles Offiice…read more I wish I could give less than zero stars. My experience with this office was a horrifically unprofessional nightmare! I had my first appointment with Dr. Malafa on Wednesday, June 3, 2026 at the Tarzana Office, Los Angeles. During the visit, he treated me well and informed me that I needed wrist surgery. He said he wanted to schedule the surgery approximately two weeks after my appointment and told me that Mirna would contact me either that day or the following day to arrange it. I never received that call. Two days later, on Friday, June 5, I called the office myself and was told that someone from the surgery scheduling department would call me back later that day. No one called. I called again on Monday, June 8, and explained that Dr. Malafa had told me Mirna would be contacting me to schedule surgery. I was informed that she was out of the office but would call me back later that day or the next morning. Once again, I received no call. On Tuesday, June 9, I called yet again in an effort to schedule my surgery. I was once more told that Mirna was out of the office and that Alva Lopez, the Surgery Department Manager, would call me back either by the end of the day or the following morning. If you're reading this, are you starting to see the pattern?? This has been the worst experience I have ever had with a medical office. It has now been a week, and I still do not even have a surgery appointment scheduled. While Dr. Malafa was professional during my visit, the office's lack of communication and follow-through has been completely unacceptable. I will be seeking a new doctor immediately. This office does not deserve my business, and I would NEVER recommend it to anyone who expects basic professionalism, communication, and patient care.

    This is a long overdue review. I'm writing it now with the hope that I can help someone else from…read moremy horrible experience. This doctor did a lumbar fusion on me back in 2009 and I have spent the last 16 years dealing with the pain and fall out from his incompetence. The mistakes that he made required multiple corrective surgeries and has seriously impacted my quality of life. Every spine doctor I have seen after Sperling has stated that he botched the procedure. There was a slippage that was not corrected in the nine hour surgery. Therefore, I've suffered severe nerve compression and pain as a result. He was clearly not skilled or experienced enough to do this type of surgery and I paid a heavy price. When he couldn't handle the post op issues anymore, he referred me to another doctor to correct his mistakes. Very unprofessional doctor and office. I cannot emphasize enough how sorry I am that I used this person. I didn't get multiple opinions and ended with disabling symptoms that will last a lifetime. To make matters worse, the staff was incredibly incompetent and rude. Don't make the mistake I made - do yourself a favor and go to someone else. I paid too big of a price trusting this person who didn't know what he was doing.

    Great doctor. Very concise, honest and to the point. Doctor has great information and is current on…read morehis literature, he is aware and knows the indications of knee treatments really well. Great doc for knees. He was also very thorough with his physical examination, and was able to easily identify the problem and suggest the appropriate conservative treatment plan. He is not your run of the mill rush to surgery physician and is patient and pushes for conservative before rushing into surgical planning.
