I couldn't be happier with my choice, he made me feel incredibly confident and reassured me throughout the whole process. From the very beginning, he was honest, compassionate, and extremely patient, addressing all my questions before and after the surgery. As a first time surgery patient, I had a ton of anxiety so high my blood pressure was sky high to a point where he was worried for my well being, but Dr. Nazemi's calming presence helped with everything and he assured me that everything would be more then okay.

I went to see Dr. Ahdoot for pain in my right hip. It started as a snapping and popping sensation,…read morethen gradually progressed to occasional pain with simple activities like walking or getting out of a chair or car, along with general stiffness. I am very active, so I tried to push through it with physical therapy, chiropractic care, and lots of stretching. These helped for a short time, although I was still physically strong, the pain persisted and continued to worsen. I had never had surgery before, so I was nervous and hesitant to go under the knife. I made simple lifestyle adjustments--limiting certain activities, using seat cushions, and modifying how I moved--but it wasn't enough. The final straw was when I was shopping with my daughter and was in excruciating pain just from walking. That's when I decided it was time. Dr. Ahdoot was quick to get me scheduled for surgery. He and his team helped me navigate insurance and guided me through all the steps needed to prepare. On the day of surgery, the DISC Center in Marina del Rey was phenomenal. They immediately helped put me at ease. Since this was my first surgery, I was very anxious. I had some difficulty fully waking up from anesthesia and developed nausea, but the nurses were wonderful--keeping me comfortable and helping me get moving. I was walking within hours after surgery (with a walker, of course). Within three days, I no longer needed the walker, and aside from mild surgical pain and some muscle stiffness, I already felt significantly better. I am 52 and initially thought this was just a pulled muscle or bursitis because I am otherwise healthy. I was hesitant and skeptical that I needed surgery, but after dealing with the pain for nearly three years, I am so glad I went through with it. Eight weeks after the surgery, my endurance is quickly improving, I am moving without pain and have no restrictions in movement. I had a minimally invasive total hip replacement using the anterior approach. For an additional cost, I opted for a prosthetic customized to my body structure. This allowed the surgeon to avoid cutting any ligaments or tendons, which is crucial for recovery and long-term stability. My incision is about three inches long and healing quickly. I am also a Type 1 diabetic, and we typically heal more slowly and can have more complications. I'm happy to say I am healing very well and have had no issues related to my diabetes. During surgery, I was even able to keep my insulin pump and CGM attached. The anesthesiologist monitored my blood sugar throughout the procedure, which allowed me to stay on my routine and maintain good control before, during, and after surgery. I highly recommend Dr. Ahdoot. He has a calm, steady temperament that immediately puts you at ease. He is confident in his skills, patient, and never made me feel pressured. I was extremely hesitant about surgery, but he simply educated me and presented the facts of my situation. He told me that when I was ready, I would know--and he was right.

Couldn't leave zero stars or I would! This was one of the worst medical experiences of my life. Dr…read more Eli Ahdoot performed a right knee arthroscopy on me in June 2025. The entire surgery from skin to skin (from the time he cut me to the time he stitched me up) only took only 13 MINUTES (Let that sink in) most surgeries like mine last 45 minutes!!! He documented and told me that my ACL was intact. That was completely A LIE. Months later after constantly complaining I couldn't walk I had a second opinion, another surgeon discovered my ACL was torn and had recoiled into a stump. He called it an obvious finding that should never have been missed (It was a softball thing to miss was the exact words). The surgery was stopped since my ACL was destroyed and I needed a cadaver ACL placed in my knee by allograft! After surgery, there was zero proper follow-up. Physical therapy was severely delayed. I was cleared to return to heavy physical work far too soon while still in significant pain and swelling. This completely derailed my recovery. I went from trying to stay mobile to becoming wheelchair and scooter dependent, with a locked knee, severe muscle atrophy, nerve damage, and constant pain. My quality of life has been destroyed. Do not go to Dr. Ahdoot. He is rushed, dismissive, and provides substandard care. I would never recommend him. He doesn't even talk with his patients...you only see his PA's!

I questioned him on several pre-op visits about possible negative outcomes but was given essentially none. He did say that if I left the bone broken bad things could occur. After the surgery to fix the bone break, I was in a huge cast for weeks. After that, two more casts, followed by a boot. His cast room staff assured me that the swelling and redness which started in my foot, and over the course of the casts and boot went to my hip, was normal. I asked them at every visit. Finally, they sent me for an ultrasound to check for a blood clot. The orders were written for arteries, not veins. Thus, no clot was found. I was told all was great. The pain, swelling and discoloration of my leg became unbearable. At my wife's urging, I went to urgent care. The doctor took one look at me and I was quickly admitted to the hospital. I had a solid clot from foot to waist, and bilateral pulmonary embolisms. I was told I was possibly days from dying. I had blood clot surgery, then a second surgery. My lower leg clot was left so long that it will be there forever. Due to the negligent care, foot numbness, botched blood clot detection, and continued pain while walking, I no longer trust him.

I wasted time and money seeing multiple doctors, chiropractors, acupuncturist and even spent over 15K at Spinatomy in Van Nuys for my lower back and not ONE helped me with my pain. After I met with Dr. Glaser I knew I was in great hands. I explained to him what I was feeling and what would trigger my pain. He did an exam and immediately knew where the pain was coming from and what needed to be done. IT WAS MY NERVES! He advised for me to get 2 Medial Branch Blocks and if they were both successful then a Radiofrequency Ablation would need to be performed. I did all 3 and I feel amazing! I can say he is one of the few doctors that I trust with my medical care and that I would highly recommend to my family and friends or anyone seeking pain management. He hasn't gotten rid of me though because now I am starting migraine treatment with him. The office is beautiful. The moment you walk in you are greeted by the wonderful ladies at front desk. Huge thanks to Leslie for always squeezing me in and answering all of my questions and to Lisa for always making my check-in process easy. Nikita is amazing and friendly always making me feel calm while doing my medical intake (it would always cause me anxiety to discuss my medical problems). And Julie, she's at check out, super sweet and helpful when it comes to insurance questions and booking appts and procedures. The surgical center, hands down the best! From front desk to the nursing team, they are all super comforting. I had Sonia and Chelsea as my nurses and they always went above and beyond.

I tried many physical therapists, pain management doctors who urged back surgeries, medications and supplements, special shoes, different canes, alternative medicines and treatments, chiropractors, deep tissue massage, CBD, acupuncture, etc. Nothing helped. I could barely walk, had given up travel, and was in constant pain. I thought this is how I will spend my last years. When Dr. Haroutunian was recommended, I almost didn't contact him. Luckily I did, and he's been a miracle worker for me. He is amazing. I am needle-phobic and fear injections. His injections were pain free. He performed several procedures, and for now, I am 98% pain-free. I know I may need one or more procedures in the future, but at nearly 76 years of age, that's a small price for such pain relief. I cannot thank him enough. I recommend him 100%.
