I had been living with an annoying (but not particularly painful) lower abdominal hernia for years, and finally decided to get it repaired. I was initially referred to Dr. Konyalian by my primary care provider, and the whole experience was great. The entire process was efficient, the office staff was great, Dr. Konyalian explained everything in detail, and the surgery and recovery was practically a breeze. I have had a number of surgical procedures over my lifetime (mostly for broken bones), and this was much easier than most.

I was originally told and believed that I had hernias which is what led me to Eugene Kahn. He did a thorough check up for me, listening the whole time while I told him how anxious all these medical issues had made me. He was one of the most empathetic, compassionate doctors I have ever come across. He took the time to hear me out even though he knew I had just pulled my muscles. While he never did a surgery for me, I get the vibe that he is a hard working and honest man who looks out for others. Do not hesitate to choose this man as your surgeon.

The office staff was always friendly and sent me timely reminders for all my appointments! I never had to wait more than a couple minutes before I was taken to a room to be seen by Dr Kahn. The hospital experience was more of the same! It was done at Los Alamitos Hospital and was done as an outpatient procedure! He met with me before and after the procedure and did the same for my family that was in the waiting room! Dr Kahn has been everything I would expect a doctor to be to a patient. I have already recommended him to a couple of my friends! I highly recommend him and if needed use him in the future! Thank you Dr Kahn!

What really stood out was how genuinely concerned he was about the condition of my implant and his commitment to doing what was best for my health--not just cosmetically, but overall.

I chose Dr. Raman Mehrzad at Ocean Plastic Surgery for a mini facelift, facial fat grafting, and…read moreCO2 laser based on their high ratings, but my experience was deeply distressing. I strongly advise any future patients to thoroughly research and verify the specific medical board certifications of the practitioners here before booking. I am incredibly unhappy with my physical outcomes. I experienced significant contour irregularities on my face, new visible facial veins, and severe asymmetry and uneven contours on my stomach following the liposuction for fat grafting. When I brought these concerns to the doctor, my issues were dismissed as a "spiel," leaving me feeling that these unwanted physical changes were going to be permanent. There was also a major communication breakdown regarding my actual procedures; I woke up to find fat had been transferred to my lips, which was never a part of the treatment plan I agreed to. During follow-up calls, the doctor downplayed my results, telling me my stomach "is not even that bad" and demanding "respect" when I questioned the unauthorized lip procedure. Furthermore, I discovered that the official patient chart notes did not accurately align with our actual conversations. Rather than addressing my surgical complications as part of my ongoing care, the doctor simply offered additional paid services that I could not afford, showing little confidence that he could even resolve the issues. The financial transparency was equally frustrating. My final anesthesia fee ended up significantly higher than my original quote. Then, at my 24-hour post-op appointment, I was told that expensive lymphatic massages were required for proper healing--adding an unexpected out-of-pocket cost of an additional thousand dollars. Between the constant sales pitches and the QR codes soliciting 5-star reviews all over the office, I felt treated more like a financial target than a patient in need of empathetic medical care. Patient privacy and safety were also major concerns. I explicitly requested the office manager ensure that no filming or recording take place during my surgery. Despite this clear boundary, I later discovered social media footage taken of me during my procedure for promotional purposes. Seeing a photo-op prioritized while I was unconscious made me incredibly uncomfortable and made me question if the prolonged procedure time unfairly impacted my anesthesia costs. I deeply regret not seeking another opinion or walking away altogether. While my experience with the management and physician was highly disappointing, the nursing and massage staff members (specifically Margie, Suzette, and Brandon) were wonderful, though there has been significant staff turnover over the last 10 months. Please protect yourself and look elsewhere.

I have had these issue for years, and they will periodically flare up and cause intense pain and discomfort. I had to book my appointment 4.5 weeks ahead of time (not the doctor's fault, but meant that I was in pain for a month before I got there). At the office I waited for 30 minutes without any explanation or comment from the staff. Once I saw the doctor, he gave me an incredibly uncomfortable exam. I have had multiple exams before and they always involve the patient lying on their side so the doctor can exam their rectum. Dr Shbeeb instead used a table that you had to get onto on your hands and knees, that was then inverted keeping you at a 45° downward angle. This was disorienting to say the least. Then he proceeded to give me the most painful exam I've ever had, going much deeper than any doctor I've had before, and using a very large probe device. If you have had hemorrhoids or anal fissures you can imagine how painful this was. After that we went into his office where he told me, without making much eye contact, that I had an anal fissure. Which I already knew, not to mention that I actually have multiple. He only mentioned the hemorrhoids I have after I said I already knew I had several. I tried to explain my history of this condition, what I've tried, what previous doctors told me, and the results of a previous colonoscopy. He was not interested in any of this and interrupted me several times. The only question he asked was the name of my previous doctor. He told me to drink water, eat fruit, do a sitz bath, and use preparation H. All of which I've previously tried and have not worked well, which is why I was in his office in the first place. I prompted him about a procedure I had heard of from a previous doctor, and he said that was a possibility, and was a minimal, outpatient procedure. When I shared my concerns about side effects, mentioned by a previous doctor, he dismissed them said they weren't common. I asked if it could be pin worms and he said "who told you you have that" when I responded "nobody, I read about it online", he said "online? You don't have that". He was glib and dismissive the whole time and eventually said "do what you're doing or get surgery, it up to you, good bye" and looked down at his desk. My experience start to finish was uncomfortable, disrespectful, and frustrating, I would recommend others avoid Dr. Shbeeb.

As an active 37‑year‑old mom of two, even the simplest daily tasks became painful, and during flare‑ups the pain was unbearable. I was often told that surgery wasn't an option for someone my age. I repeatedly heard that bulging or deteriorating discs were "common" and should simply be managed with medication or injections. But after learning about a friend's wife who had a successful procedure at Advanced Spine Care, I realized I didn't have to keep living this way. I reached out to Dr. Verma, and after several consultations, I finally felt confident moving forward. The entire experience exceeded my expectations. The surgery center, nursing staff, and fellow surgeons made me feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for. I was up and walking the same night as my surgery, and each day brought noticeable improvement. My incision was small and healed beautifully thanks to Dr. Rao. Before long, I was back at the gym, walking on the treadmill, using the stair master, and taking Pilates classes. Now, four months post‑surgery, I continue to increase my activity level and feel stronger every day. Had I known how life‑changing this procedure would be, I would have done it years ago. I am deeply grateful to Dr. Verma and his incredible team for giving me back pain‑free days and the ability to fully enjoy my life again.
