Thank You Dr Senofsky, I got the bit of a run around from from my GP and an emergency room before I came to you. No one seemed to think my problem was any big deal. You took one look and told me I was having surgery the next day. You were the only one who seemed to care and realize my situation was very serious. You were kind, explained everything to me, and the next day you took care of my problem. You did a great job and I'm all fixed now. Good to know the You treat people with respect and concern. That's not the case with many people in this field these days. Thank You again. read more

Dr Senofsky made me feel very comfortable with him and the decision to choose a lumpectomy. He mad me and my young adult sons feel confident that the cancer would be gone. My pain was minimal and my scar looks amazing at only 21 days out. I would highly recommend Dr Senofsky. He's very caring and you can tell every patient is important to him. And getting them the best outcome and best future is his top priority. read more

Dr Senofsky is an amazing, caring, surgeon. I had a lumpectomy earlier this year and his care got me thru a rather challenging event navigating a breast cancer diagnosis. Dr. Senofsky is an amazing surgeon, he does brilliant surgery and completed a beautiful re-contour at the same time as the lumpectomy. I can't thank him enough. His staff as well as his P.A. Judy were wonderful. read more

Dr. Senofsky saved my life. I went to him with what I thought was a benign condition. Dr. Senofsky was quick to act and sent me off for testing and diagnosed me within 2 weeks. It's a very unfortunate situation to be in but I am here today because of him and I am whole today because of him. He and the plastic surgeon he referred me to are the dream team. Do yourself a favor and make the appointment. read more

Dr. Senofsky is a brilliant, highly competent and compassionate breast cancer surgeon. He is a hard working, amazing doctor.

I just had my 6 month follow up with Dr. Senofsky after breast cancer surgery. He made me feel so at ease that my breast and mammogram was all normal and free of cancer. I completely trust Dr. Senofsky with my breast health care. Thank you Dr. Senofsky. read more

During times of a cancer diagnosis things can feel overwhelming and stressful. I took my wife to several surgeons to see how she felt about them. This is an important decision that You should feel 100% confident in your Surgeon. A family friend recommended we visit Dr. Senofsky. Within a few minutes I felt 100% confident with Dr. Senofsky performing my wife's surgery. Most importantly was that my wife was also comfortable and confident working with Dr. Senofsky. He is extremely skilled, intelligent and compassionate. He truly cares about his patients and their families. If you or a loved one is going through this process I recommend you make an appointment to meet with Dr. Senofsky. You deserve the best and that's what you get with Dr. Senofsky. Thank You so much Dr. Senofsky for taking care of my wife. read more

Excellent Dr. (Surgeon) healthcare physician. Back in 2015 I had to have a breast cyst removed with a successful outcome and Dr. Senofsky was referred by my primary Dr. It was the best referral I've ever gotten, so good, that now 8 years later I sought out Dr. Senofsky on my own after feeling discomfort in my opposite breast. Needless to say I had to once again undergo surgery but he earned my trust and this is truly his forte . My case was a little more sensitive this time around and Dr. Senofsky treated it as such, being sincere, explaining the procedure in detail and relaying a positive message resulting in his best work ergo another successful surgery and post op healing is coming along. Thank you Dr. Senofsky for taking amazing care of me. Though, I know you serve others not just me, I know you give 100 % of yourself everyday. Definitely recommend! read more

Dr. Senofsky did an incredible job with my double lumpectomy. I had never had a mammogram and my first results showed I had cancer. Within a few weeks, I had surgery and was on to receive radiation. I highly recommend Dr Senofsky. Aside from his vast accomplishments, he is professional, straight forward and matter-a-fact. On a separate note, I have never needed to speak with a doctor, off hours. The weekend after my surgery, I needed help and Dr S. was on the phone with me the entire afternoon to ensure I received everything I needed. For someone of his caliber, to make himself available all weekend long should say all you need to know. read more

I do not understand why this Dr has good reviews!! This Dr is extremely rough,and has a very strange personality. This year I had a lumpectomy.If this Dr does your surgery be prepared, he inserts a unnecessary drainage tube that is very painful.I've heard this from others also. 1 week after surgery and went to remove the tube,he didn't remember me and asked my husband and I what hospital he did surgery at.Are you kidding me,I had seen this man 4 times in 1 month!!!! He was extremely rude to us.I think this Dr is mental, no joke here,my word of advice is to stay away.There are other good surgeons,you do not have to go with UCLA. I read more

doctor apologized and asked if I have questions. Explained reason for so many tests.

On May 23, I was diagnosed with invasive lobular carcinoma breast cancer. After crying for two days, I began the process of seeking a breast cancer surgeon and oncologist. Dr. Gregory M. Senofsky [UCLA Health | David Geffen School of Medicine] was recommended by SIX people. I did meet with an Oncologist at City of Hope in Lancaster on May 25; at which time they scheduled a consultation with one of their surgeons for July 13. However, Dr. Senofsky was available June 22. During his consultation, I found him to be a brilliant man, very professional, and proactive. He immediately scheduled me for surgery on July 5. Because of his years of experience and thousands of surgeries, his description of the surgical process / procedure was 100%. I trusted his skill and his word. He minimized the trauma; cancer is obviously not a desirable circumstance to find oneself in. I felt that Dr. Senofsky has a heart for eradicating this disease. Excellent job, Dr. Senofsky. Thank you. read more

Dr. Senofsky is an outstanding surgeon. I had breast cancer that in the beginning looked like I was going to need a mastectomy. After having a complete response to chemo, Dr. Senofsky felt a lumpectomy would be more than sufficient. I am grateful for his approach and willingness to change plans. He is thorough, straight forward and a seasoned expert. read more

Dr. Senofsky is amazing doctor, I'm 28 yrs old and made a very scary and amazing decision to do a preventative double mastectomy with NO reconstruction because I'm brca 2+ dr. was very nice supportive and got me through the surgery. He really does care for his patients his staff members are very nice as well I would highly recommend this doctor to do your surgery. He was very patient with me as to I was really scared and anxious and he reinsured me what I was doing was the smart thing to do. He does amazing work as well. read more

Dr. Senofsky was courteous and professional. He took the time to explain everything in detail and I was confident I was in the right place. Dr. Senofsky's entire team always made me feel as though the outcome of my medical situation was important. In other words, I felt like I mattered and in these times; this really made me feel at ease. I was seen by Dr. Senofsky about 8 times and he was my surgeon. I would recommend anyone to Dr. Senofsky for breast cancer. This guy knows his craft and knows how to make his patients feel comfortable and understand that they are really in good hands. I am truly grateful to have had the pleasure of having Dr. Senofsky treat me. Keep up the great work. read more

Dr. Senofsky is an excellent surgeon! He is a caring, honest, thoughtful doctor. He is accessible and will personally return phone calls. As his cancer patient, I never doubted that I would receive the best possible treatment and care from Dr. Senofsky. I would not trust my health with anyone else. His staff is friendly and polite too. read more

Dr. Senofsky saved my life!!! I had a lump for over a year in my breast that did not show up in a mammogram or ultrasound. In a years time I had 2 mammograms and 6 ultrasounds and each time I was told that there was nothing there and that I was fine. Finally my OB referred me to Dr. Senofsky. His closest office to my house is over 45 miles away, but I was impressed with his reviews so I called anyway. His office got me in to see him within a week. I met with him and he said that it didn't sound like cancer or feel like cancer, but we should just remove it since it hurt. I agreed and he did surgery on Feb 2, 2018. Every other doctor I had seen just blew me off since no scan found a lump.....Feb 6, he called and gave me the news that my pathalogy had come back positive. I had breast cancer!!! I was 36 years old and terrified. Dr. Senofsky was amazing, he walked me the through everything I needed to do and he was aggressive with my cancer, but patient with me as I had to process things. He knew that I lived over an hour away from any of his offices, or hospitals so he was always conscience of where he was sending me. (I thought about switiching to a closer doctor, I have City of Hope very close to me, but I knew I was in the best hands) Dr. Senofsky sent me for a MRI that showed there were still cancer cells in my breast and so then he sent me for an ultrasound guided biopsy. During the ultra sound they still couldn't find the cancer and so I had a huge decision to make. I could further pursue additional testing to see how much cancer was left in my breast, or I could opp for a masectomy since my boobs hid cancer anyway. Dr. Senofsky was very patient with me while still helping me understand the urgency of what I was dealing with and he recommended that I go see a plastic surgeon while I was trying to make my decision that way I could get all of my reconstruction questions answered. He recommended I see Dr. Crisera at UCLA and I couldn't have been more happy with his recommendation. Dr. Crisera spent almost an hour and half with us for the first appointment and answered all of my questions. By the time I left his office I was confidant that a double masectomy was the best decision for me. I called Senofsky and told him and the two offices worked together and got me scheduled for March 6th. I had my double masectomy exactly one month from the day I was given my diagnosis. I am now eight months out since my masectomy and I am so happy with the care I have received from all of my doctors at UCLA. I had Stage 2 ductal carcinoma ER+PR+HER2-IDC. I will try to post pics if the is site will allow it. Dr. Senofsky was able to save my areolas and so my breast still look very similar to what my real ones used to look like. He did an amazing job and I have minimal scarring. I have documented my journey for anyone who may be going through a cancer diagnosis, and may want to know that there are others who understand the fear..... If you are reading this review, you are probably looking for a good doctor who knows what he is doing when dealing with cancer and although I am sorry you are going through this, I can assure you that you are in the best hands with Dr. Senofsky!!! My blog is jamiellotz01@blogspot.com for anyone interested in the masectomy journey. It is a very honest, very raw account of what it is like to be dealing with a cancer DX and what it feels like to loose your breast, both emotional and physical. I hope it helps someone out there. It is scary, but it is not impossible!! YOU are stronger than you think they are!!! read more

Somewhere there may be other surgeons as good as Dr. Senofsky. But after being under his care for the last five months, I am convinced that there are none any better. In my 65 years of seeing physicians for a variety of issues, I have only met one other that comes close to matching his meticulous level of care and concern for his patients' well-being. Before I was even his patient, shortly after receiving my breast cancer diagnosis, I called UCLA for information and they gave me what they thought was his office number and which turned out to be his personal number. This was over the year-end holidays. When I called and Dr. Senofsky answered personally, I was a bit taken aback and I apologized, explained I had just been diagnosed with triple positive breast cancer and was seeking information. He cheerfully asked me if there were any questions he could answer for me and spent some time answering them. At my first appointment with him, I brought a list of additional questions and both my husband and I were impressed that I was in the best possible hands. Dr. Senofsky always made it clear to me that he has my best interests at heart by confirming where I live before sending me many miles out of my way to distant locations for certain appointments and tests, opting instead to send me to facilities that are closer to home. This is a consideration I have never seen ANY other doctor make, ever. But when you have cancer and energy is at a premium, it makes a considerable impact on quality of life. And, if that weren't enough, there is this: If, prior to surgery, anyone would have suggested to me that I would have sailed through breast surgery with NO PAIN whatsoever I would have thought they were crazy. But I'm a believer now. I am one week post-op, having had lumpectomies in both breasts, including the removal of four lymph nodes. I had a little discomfort from the surgical drain tube, but it was more like a "stone in my shoe" type of discomfort...not really painful. The incisions and my breasts, however, do NOT hurt. And the results look terrific! I am very happy! Wonderful, skilled, patient and kind. I would give Dr. Senofsky more than 5 stars if it were possible. read more

Dr Senofsky was highly recommended to me by my PCP right after my biopsy results came back positive for Ductal Carcinoma. She highly recommended him and since then I have heard only the best about him by every healthcare worker i have come in contact with (Doctors and Technicians alike who have said if they were ever in my situation they would immediately seek Dr. Senofsky's medical care) In choosing him I know I received the best and most advanced care for Breast Cancer available to me. After my lumpectomy, I virtually had zero post-op pain ( being a Chronic Pain patient, this says plenty about Dr. Senofsky's surgical abilities. ) and recovery was fast and easy. I am forever thankful for his professionalism and the PROMPT, thorough & comprehensive manner in which he took care of me as well as his caring way to put me right at ease from the very first visit. Everything about the entire process was explained to me by him and his wonderful staff in a very easy way to understand. Thank you & GOD Bless you Dr. Senofsky ! read more

I have seen Dr Senofsky for multiple years. Ever since he moved out of his Encino location it is been nothing but trouble. I have to drive 30 miles to see him from my home, and every time he's either late, "on his way" when he's already 20 minutes late to begin with- and he and his staff are very unapologetic about it. I understand the doctors lead busy lives, but I too am a business professional and find excessive tardiness unacceptable. My time is valuable as well. read more

This review is for my mom (Naira Melkonyan). My family was truly blessed to find ourselves in the care of Dr. Gregory Senofsky. From day 1, Dr. Senofsky showed concern and care for my mom's situation. My mom's breast scans showed cancer, and Dr. Senofsky's timely, experienced, and knowledgeable response ensured minimal to no spread of the cancerous cells and quite possibly saved my mom's life, given the aggressive nature of the cancer. Dr. Senofsky performed the double mastectomy in extraordinary fashion, leaving my mom in little to no pain post-op. Our family family could not have asked for a more talented and personable physician than Dr. Senofsky. read more

We are so lucky that such a wonderful good hearted Surgeon was able to do procedure on my mom. He is truly a caring wise doctor and wants nothing but the best for his patients. Thank you for all you hard work and God bless. read more

Dr. Senofsky performed my lumpectomy and did a FANTASTIC job. My scar is minimal, no dimpling and virtually no pain. He was thorough when explaining everything prior to my surgery and then took great aftercare of me. His staff was excellent too. I highly recommend Dr. Senofsky. read more

Dr. Senofsky is a fantastic surgeon! He is through and thoughtful. He has an excellent bedside manner and explained everything to me. He knew that I was feeling anxious, but by explaining everything it made me calmer. He was highly recommended by my regular doctor and I understand why. Thank you Dr. Senofsky! read more

I am 3 weeks post my double mastectomy with Doctor Senofsky, and I would like to express my endless gratitude for my successful surgery. Everything couldn't go any smoother. Doctor Senofsky is one of the best breast surgeons in the country and i wouldn't have made any other choice. Jessica and his entire staff was beyond amazing. Thank you all. read more

Dr. Senofsky is a caring and empathetic Dr., Who also happens to be one of the most skillful surgeons in the world. My experience with him was phenomenal. Athanl you so much! read more

Dr senofsky is a great surgeon and a great doctor. I have fibrocystic breasts ( non cancerous tumors that grow in my breasts periodically ) He removed them surgically with minimal scar. I was self employed and didn't have insurance back then (16 yrs ago) and he worked with me financially too. I since got insurance and he was not covered under my hmo When my breasts cysts came back I thought my covered doctor would understand to leave minimal scars and the procedure. The next covered surgeon left a huge scar under my breast and I hated the whole experience. The third time I paid the extra fee to get his second opinion and make sure the second covered doctor I had found was someone he would recommend. He also recommended that this covered doctor would do the surgery on the first cut he had made so that I wouldn't have multiple scars. He talked to my doctor and confirmed that what he would do would be done by the new surgeon as well. Everything went well and he was a phone call away.. When you are used to Vip treatment with senofsky it's hard to go back to any surgeon He takes good care of you and truly wants the best for you. He explains everything to you. He takes the time to say " I care ". He takes the time to tell you that your body is important to you and that he understands your fears and concerns. It's important. He also suggested vitamins and natural treatments. I highly recommend him. read more

Dr. Senofsky and staff are very nice. I have been to his office several times. I have never waited more than 15 minutes to be seen. He is very knowledgeable and personable. read more

I am so thankful that my wife and I chose Dr Senofsky to treat her breast cancer. Not only were her surgical margins completely clear -- meaning her surgery was a huge success -- the fact that he took the time to listen to my questions (in additions to hers) was very reassuring and comforting throughout this whole process. He's a great doctor and I highly recommend him. read more

Dr. Senofsky is amazing! I had my lumpectomy with him last week and he performed an excellent work! He also prioritized my cosmetic outcome and took some extra time/effort during the operation. My breast shape almost did not change! I felt confident with him since my very first appointment. I can not be more grateful that I was reffered to him. He is definetely very talented and excellent Doctor, and knows exactly what needs to be done. I would like also compliment his scribe Emily. She is very nice and sweet! read more

This morning I had 3 core breast biopsies. To say I was fearful would be an understatement. I read horror stories about how painful it would be and even had friends tell me it was extremely painful. All I can say is it must depend on who you go to. I barely felt the needle when Dr. Sonofsky gave me the local and felt absolutely nothing when he did the biopsy. It was seriously PAINLESS. Hope this helps someone else ease their anxiety over the biopsy. read more

I am 4 weeks post right breast lumpectomy & lymph node dissection. I am now cancer free, praise the Lord! I was blessed to have been referred to Dr Senofsky for my surgery & care. He did an amazing & perfect job with my surgery & the reconstruction of my breast after the removal of the lump. Me & my husband are so pleased with the results. I highly recommend Dr Senofsky to anyone needing a skilled & professional caring doctor. God Bless & be with all those facing breast cancer! We may be challenged but we will not be defeated!!! read more

One week before my 44th birthday of this year, I was diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. My Gynecologist called me with my results on a Friday afternoon and told me to call Dr. Senofsky's office for a consultation with him, which I did. My appointment was made for the following Monday. Dr. Senofsky promised me that he would give me the best birthday gift ever and he did just that, by removing the cancer through a lumpectomy. I also had two axillary lymph nodes removed to be tested to make sure no cancer was present. I have never been so confident in a doctor as I am with him. He put my mind at ease dealing with a very scary and unexpected diagnosis. He is knowledgeable, confident, thorough, easy to talk with, caring and the best in his field. No doubt about that. Being a woman, I was concerned with how my breast would look after surgery. I am truly pleased with the outcome. I would recommend Dr. Senofsky without hesitation to anyone needing his care. When in need of this type of surgeon, do not hesitate in calling his office. read more

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005 and Dr. Senofsky was highly recommended to me by my sister, a nurse, who had worked with him and many other breast surgeons previously. She told me that she was always amazed by how well all of his patients did after surgery. Choosing Dr Senofsky for my care was the best decision I could have made. He was kind, caring, extremely knowledgeable, and did an exceptional job of getting rid of the cancer while still managing to keep me looking aesthetically good considering the amount of tissue he had to remove. I've continued to see Dr Senofsky for my regular checkups and still find him to be extremely knowledgeable, professional, and caring. Dr. Senofsky is who my daughters will see if the unthinkable ever happens to them. Thank you Dr. Senofsky for making sure I had all the information I needed to make educated decisions in choosing the other members of my healthcare team. Allison M read more

Dr Senofsky is a wonderful surgeon and a great person. Dr.Senofsky really cares about his patients and give fabulous care to them. I knew he was the right doctor for me when he said you absolutely don't need a mastectomy. Dr. Senofsky was able to do a Lumpectomy on my breast and remove all my cancer out. He took great care of me and made sure to make my breast look nice after the surgery. It's been only a month since my surgery and I have healed very nicely. This is all due to the amazing surgeon that Dr. Senofsky is. The office staff are all so kind and friendly as well. I would recommend Dr. Senofsky to anyone as he is so extremely qualified. read more

Dr. Senofsky is beyond awesome! Being told I had a Stage 4 cancer, My wife and I were both highly anxious. Dr. Senofsky and his staff were very supportive, easing our fears from the start. Dr. Was very thorough and educated us on all the possibilities. He is very proactive and was a great advocate for us. Can't say enough about his staff. Always welcomed us with smiles and great attitudes. Looking forward to my followup treatment. Thank you Dr. Senofsky:) read more

Dr. Senofsky is very caring and knowledgeable. Everyone from his office staff to surgical team have been exceptional. He takes time to explain everything and answers all your questions. read more

Dr. Senofsky cares about his patients. He took the time at each visit to answer all my questions and to alieve all my fears. He moved quickly and made sure I had all the required tests needed to identify my cancer type. I was very fortunate to be referred to such a great doctor. He was very proactive with referring me to a reconstruction surgeon early on to learn more about what would be involved with a mastectomy, if I chose to go that route and also with the Oncologist so I will know my Oncologist after I had the surgery and what I will be facing with chemotherapy. He recently performed a lumpectomy on me. He removed my cancer and made me feel very safe under his care. My breast looks the same as my other breast that did not have a lumpectomy. I was told Dr. Senofsky was the best in his field and I could not agree more. He is the Best! read more
