My nurse was professional and pleasant. She took my vitals, we reviewed all my medication's before Dr Irani came in. A smiling Dr Irani came in, we shook hands. I haven't seen him in a year he puts you at ease with his presence. I explained the reason for my visit and my concerns, after an examination he decided a minor surgery would be required, he said it would be a 5 minute procedure. I felt relieved, I was in good hands. I met with Maria to set up my surgery date she provided me with all the information and instructions. Maria was excellent. My visit lasted about 40 minutes and I was out the door. All of Dr Irani's staff at BSA is friendly and professional.

My wife had the sleeve with Dr Irani and hit her goal weight in target time. My mother is about to have the bypass with Dr Moon. Lastly a family friend had the sleeve with Dr Irani and has lost over 115lbs. In total I believe we are currently close to 500lbs lost and my revision and my mothers surgery will push us up to over 600lbs. This office is amazing, the staff is sweet and fast, the Doctors are patient and understanding. Wouldn't recommend any where else for these types of procedures.

I feel great now thanks to this Medical practice and the staff they entrust to their patients.

My sincere apologies to Dr. Mallik Thatipelli and Myra for the long lapse of time since I was in…read morefor my last treatment at the end of December 2019 to this posting of my review. As they say "Life is what Happens when you're busy making other plans" Let me say this though.... what a wonderful experience and incredible results. I started treatments on my legs with Dr. Mallik in June of 2019. Both him and his nurse made me comfortable right from the start and although I live in Ridgecrest, Ca. I never will regret having to drive to Bakersfield for the doctor's care and treatments. I had been suffering for the last 6-8 years on a daily basis with leg discoloring due to poor circulation, severe varicose veins in my lower legs, numbing of the feet, excruciating pain from my feet up thru my calves all the time, swelling and constant tingling in my feet, and the inability to stand each morning without 20 mins or so of wishing i could just shoot myself to make the pain go away. After 4 procedures and umpteen treatments I finished my last session in December To be honest, I had residual marking and swelling after most of the appointments just as Dr. Mallik had explained but each time i started noticing improvement... every single time things kept getting better. As of today 6/13/2020 I am still amazed how much better my legs feel. I'm sleeping thru the night, there is no more morning pain and my legs look great. To anyone who has been thinking about addressing varicose veins, wondering what to do about leg swelling, worrying about sores on their legs just stop it. Go to see Dr. Mallik Thatipelli you won't regret it. Thank you Dr. M and Myra for making my life better

Zero Stars. I had a very negative experience at this office. The doctor came across as controlling,…read moreand the staff appeared intimidated by him. When I was leaving, he rushed over demanding a $20 copay. I explained that my deductible and out-of-pocket maximum had already been met, so I did not owe a copay. Even after I verified this with my insurance, he continued yelling and instructed the staff not to let me leave until I paid. His behavior became so aggressive that I felt frightened and ran out of the office. Although my procedure had been fully approved, I never returned because of how I was treated. They called me everyday for almost a month asking me to go back in to have my procedure done. I also never received a bill which showed I did not owe them the $20 they were demanding. This happened some time ago, so I hope things have improved since then.

He may…read morevery well be brilliant...however, the female think-tank reject on the phone 20 minutes ago...that's another story, and the reason why. Uncaring, vocally comatose, and KEPT asking my wife for THE SAME INFORMATION OVER AND OVER. **Office: What's your husband's name. -- My wife gave it. Office: Insurance? -- My wife gave it. **My wife: Do you want our supplemental insurance, too? Office: No, not necessary. Date of birth? -- My wife gave it. Office: Can you read the insurance card number again? -- My wife repeated it. Office: Do you have any other insurance? **My wife (what??): I just asked you if you wanted it, you said not necessary. Office: Well, can I have it? **My wife (bemused): OK...let me get the card. (my wife reads the info to her). Office: OK, what's your husband's date of birth? **My wife (huh?): I gave that to you already. Office: Can you give it to me again? **My wife: Seriously? You didn't...get it?...a few minutes ago? OK. (she gives it again) Office: And what's your husband's name again? **My wife (trying to keep calm): That was the FIRST thing I gave you 5 minutes ago! Office: Can you spell it for me? **My wife (looking at me at this point and shrugging her shoulders in disbelief): Sure. (she spells my name) Office: Your insurance, can you read the number again? **My wife (understandably fed up): You know.........it doesn't sound as if you're really interested in even having this conversation, since you keep asking me the EXACT SAME QUESTIONS!! over and over. I think we'll find another doctor whose office staff actually pays attention!! (My wife hangs up the phone). SO...I'm guessing it shouldn't be THAT difficult to ascertain WHO was answering the phones in Dr. Hillyer's office at 2pm on February 19, 2024. Because THAT WOMAN...is the FIRST INTERACTION the "public" experiences while representing Dr. Shahab Hillyer. Incompetence. Lack of caring. Indifference. That's the ONLY thing we walked away with from this one, simple phone call to merely set up an appointment. Pay attention, Dr Hillyer. You may very well be terrific, but WE'LL never know, because you hired Ms. Indifferent to answer your phones.

On top of that, I've also had Botox with her and it turned out absolutely flawless. Nadia is truly the best at what she does. If you've been thinking about laser or Botox, I say go for it!
