I had to have a surgery asap and couldn't get an appointment anywhere. But Dr Melikian's assistant was able to get me into a surgery center in 2 weeks. Paperwork and all communication were super responsive. Best in class, absolutely recommending to anyone in need of a spine specialist

Although I live in Long Beach and had limited time to visit in person, Dr. Melikian was kind enough to initiate contact via email and responded promptly. He arranged a quick phone consultation at no charge. He came across as very amiable, genuinely concerned, and highly knowledgeable about the subject. During our conversation, he brought up additional tests and treatment options I wasn't previously aware of. The call was definitely productive and appreciated. My only gripe, generally speaking--not specific to his practice--is that stem cell treatments are exorbitantly priced and not covered by insurance. Expect to pay anywhere from $6,000 to $9,000 or more for various stem cell treatment options. So, not a go just yet until I figure out how to come up with the money, I will have to live with my back pain.

    After my last appointment with Dr. Hannon, I realized I am done with him…read more He takes a conservative approach, which I appreciate. He often starts with some anti-inflammatories and doesn't recommend surgery unless you're old and really need it. However, he also doesn't believe in any alternative therapies like prolotherapy. When I explained that it changed my life for a disc problem I was having. He says he doesn't know much about it. He also said there's nothing to do about shoulder cartilage (arthritis). Since he doesn't seem to believe in prolotherapy, I'm sure he doesn't believe in any of the procedures being done to restore cartilage. He also wants to leave the room about 5 to 7 minutes in and you definitely feel rushed. Any recently my husband came in for extreme shoulder pain and he put him on a dose pak for a week, which did not help at all... Another doctor did an MRI and discovered significant tears. I'm sure he is a competent surgeon but.he seems to only wants to do NSAIDS or surgery. Nothing in between. And your visit feels extremely rushed., I will not be going back to Dr. Hannon.

    Went in for shoulder and arm problems. The quality of care here is excellent on every level - very…read moreorganized, prompt, efficient, responsive, caring, compassionate, and definitely patient-centered. I highly recommend Dr. Hannon and his team for their no-nonsense approach to medicine, with great communication and respect for patients, their well-being, time, and pocketbook!

His staff is very friendly, especially his assistant Zohra. His recommendation for therapy was also really great with Stay Ready PT in Brentwood. My hip surgery was about 4.5 months ago, and I can see tremendous strides. I am looking forward to getting back on the court and other sports activities with the great by product of Dr. G's surgery.

    Dr. Garabekyan and his staff are the best!! If I could give 10 stars, I would! I write this in my…read morethird month of recovery from the PAO and arthroscopy surgery: I am relatively young, in my early twenties, and never had surgery in my life, so the idea of getting TWO surgeries (Arthroscopy and PAO) was very scary. I also had another issue where I could not accept blood transfusions of any kind. That also added to my level of fear and distress. The idea of a minimally invasive PAO is not something I had heard of before and was very anxious. However, Dr. Garabekyan was SO patient in answering every question I had. His assistant Susie was also amazing and gave us anything we needed. When in the hospital, he frequently visited and called to make sure that I was okay. As expected, my hemoglobin did drop, but thanks to the salvage saving method used, I never had any critical blood loss/feel the side effects of anemia. I felt very, very minimal pain. The medication prescribed was perfect. The "hard" part was the period of 1-2 weeks after leaving the hospital, as sleeping was very difficult due to being a side sleeper. Dr. Garabekyan's advice (using many small pillows to relieve pressure) will helped getting through the night a lot easier. Another thing that amazed me is that he would answer our questions even on his vacation time. His recovery process was VERY well detailed, and we never needed to guess on what methods of recovery he wanted us to do. I have been to many hip doctors at Cedar Sinai and other hospitals, and I've never had a doctor as caring and patient as Dr. Garabekyan. Choosing him to do the surgery was the best decision I could make and I'm so thankful to his excellent communication skills, and of course his incredibly awesome assistant, Susie! :)

He performed cervical spine disc replacement at my C4-C5, C5-C6, and C6-C7, and his expertise has truly changed my life by relieving my pain and giving me back a quality of life I never thought I'd have again. Throughout the entire process, he was always respectful, compassionate, and had outstanding bedside manners, making me feel comfortable and confident every step of the way. I especially appreciate that he took the extra time during surgery to carefully work through the challenges and make sure everything was done right. That level of dedication means more than words can express. I am incredibly grateful and would recommend Dr. Melamed without hesitation. Thank you for giving me my life back!

I had a very bad neck injury , very little movement in my neck and quite a bit of pain. I went to see Dr Melamed and we discussed the possibility of surgery but he suggested I should take a conservative approach first and get physical therapy. I appreciated him not pushing me into surgery as a first option and so I went ahead and got physical therapy as well as acupuncture. I did this for over 6 months. Unfortunately my neck really never got better so I went back to see Doctor Melamed.In July of 2024 I had cervical disc replacement performed by Dr Melamed. I had four discs replaced so it was a pretty major surgery.The surgery went extremely well as did my recovery. I had very limited pain if any at all after the surgery and I wound up getting almost full relief from any neck pain and virtually 100% motion returned. I highly recommend Dr Melamed as he is a really excellent surgeon as well as a very caring doctor. I was able to speak with him in a frank manner and never felt that I was being talked down to in any way, which I find that some doctors do.Everything was explained to me very carefully before the surgery and I am very grateful to him.

    From moment one I was impressed with the Commons & Dr Eric Milstein due to his professional staff…read moreand their expeditious reply to voice mails. I had an incredibly painful shoulder and the staff worked to fit me in to Dr Milstein's busy schedule ASAP ! The Commons office is a very comfortable and inviting space--no hideous straight back chairs lined up in a windowless lobby ! A spacious area with various seating areas and a pleasant front desk staff. Dr Milstein himself is friendly, professional and direct. I have much confidence in his medical assessment and protocol for my very painful shoulder. After years with Kerlan Jobe (now Cedars) the circuitous phone messages to reach a human, the exorbitant wait times to actually see a Dr, the rushed brief visit once an appointment is secured with a doctor, Dr Milstein and his practice are a breath of fresh air !!! Also, very easy parking 100 out of 100 overall score ! P.S. I was even more impressed when the patient prior to me was a world renowned Doctor.

So one year ago he had a rash of almost 25 people that couldn't say more fabulous things about him. Certainly not my experience. 10 minutes past my appointment time he's standing outside my closed door loudly socializing about his Internet searches with his assistants. When he finally walks in and I ask him if he's going to buy the shoes, he gives me a snotty "I don't know, maybe". Contemptuous glare, zero apology. He then went on to behave like a slovenly teenager, angry that I had to nerve to point out I was running late. He made it exceedingly clear that he could care less about helping my painful medical situation and even interrupted the consultation to argue with me about how he had a right to be late & that I should go elsewhere. Arrogant, rude, disrespectful & made us miss the deadline for funding our Spacex ipo. Not to mention the extraordinarily predatory information gathering that they subject you to in the weeks prior to arrival .. it's like they're feeding it right into the WBAN system.
