My daughter saw Dr. Michael Tahery two years ago, and strongly recommended that I seek him out for a second opinion. She gave me the phone number, and I called and made an appt. I went to his web site, printed out the address and phone number to have with me---both of which are wrong, by the way. I drove 45 min. all the way down to Glendale for my appt. only to find out that the building had been torn down last year. The mail man just happened to be in the area and told me. I tried calling the number I printed from the web site, but that was wrong too. Unfortunately, I had not realized it was a different phone number than the one my daughter gave me. I could not reach her for the correct phone number. When I got back and called them, all the receptionist would say was "we need to update our web site" and then argued with me about whether or not the phone number listed was correct or not. It was not correct. She never apologized or seemed at all concerned that I had waited three weeks for an appt. and would now have to wait two week more because the doctor would be gone on vacation. She blankly asked me if I wanted to schedule another appointment. I said I would think about it. I ended up going to a wonderful doctor in Arcadia, who also has offices here in SCV. His name is Roger Satterthwaite. Michael Tahery may very well be an excellent physician--I never had the pleasure of meeting him. However, he really needs to get a better trained staff who are respectful of his patients' time. Allowing patients to wait weeks for appointments only to arrive and find that the address listed on the web site is wrong, and then having to wait weeks for another appointment is not acceptable. Leaving a medical web site in need of updating for over a year makes one wonder what other things the staff are not being attentive too... read more

Great Doctor--- TERRIBLE front desk. Not only did they lie and say the Dr. was in-network with my insurance, they are all over the place and not organized. I have never had an experience like this. They have no consideration for their patients and could care less. After my 3rd treatment they told me that the Dr. was not in-network with my insurance and that I would have to pay for my visits in full. That's thousands of dollars! The real kicker, I ASKED THEM TWICE TO VERIFY BEFORE MY INITAL APPOINTMENT AND THEY SAW MY INSURANCE CARD! Honestly, so disappointed that they would take advantage of people while in the middle of receiving treatment. Hate to complain because Dr. Tahery is patient and listens. A wonderful and intelligent resource. He really needs to retrain his staff or hire new completely new receptionist staff. Jessica, in their billing department, is a saint and has been extremely helpful. So glad I have her through this whole process. read more

He is quick to answer phone calls. His staff on the other hand..not so much. I had surgery with Dr Tahery recently, and I had to chase his staff around on the phone for over a week just to get it scheduled. The scheduler never did call me back, she e mailed me instead to announce when my surgery date/time was, rather than calling to go over the available dates and times to see what worked for me, as it is usually done by normal professionals. I would know, I've had a few surgeries over the past year alone. The day of surgery? My blood test results were not at the hospital because Tahery's staff quite simply do not do their jobs. The blood was collected in their office, so it was their responsbility to make sure it got to the hospital prior to my surgery. They had TEN days to get it there, and yet..they did not. The day of my surgery, the nurses were asking me when and where I had the tests so they could get it in time. This caused a delay, and it was not the nurses' jobs to track down bloodwork for me. My actual surgery: he did not remove the gland he'd agreed to remove, even claiming it 'must have moved' and 'could be anywhere by now' Really? Wow, just wow! He did find some other things and removed them, which was all good and fine, but his follow up sucks, and he was quick to pass the buck..suggesting I go see a pain specialist rather than spend another moment trying to actually fix my problem. I'm in the market for a new surgeon now, as he did NOT do what he agreed to do. One side was never even surgically explored as he'd promised would be done. He said "Oh, I looked..but didn't think I needed to open it" I suppose 3 years of chronic inflammation and pain in that area did not deserve a thorough look, in his view. May he get a huge boil on his backside, and be shuffled off to a pain management doctor one day! Obviously, I can't suggest this doctor to anyone in good conscience. read more

This was my daughters second visit to see Michael Tahery and to be honest he is an exceptional doctor however his staff is a nightmare, I paid a copay of $85 for the doctors visit and then was told I had to pay another copay of $85 for ultrasound that he preformed during the visit and $40 copay for the culture, I told the receptionist that I normally just pay copay for the visit and I get billed for labs and ultra sound with explanation of benefits from the insurance company and if there is an outstanding I pay the bill, I was shocked by the way she spoke to me and she insisted that I had to pay otherwise she would cancel the culture test, I then get a call from Carmen and RJ and I explained to them my insurance company is first billed for ultra sound and labs and I'm sent a bill for the outstanding, she was huffing and puffing over the phone and threatened to get rid of the culture if I didn't pay. I asked that I speak to Dr Tahery thinking that he would be more understanding and logical, however he called me accusing me of wasting his time and saying that it was a insignificant amount of Money and that I'm the one that chose to go with that plan, this has nothing to do with the plan, it's common practice that the insurance is first billed for ultrasound and culture and an outstanding is sent to you to pay. This office is run by a bunch of bullies and scam artist, that are probably being paid minimum wage and don't give a crap about customer service or clients. I have never had a more unethical experience. Please make sure you tell the doctor to let you know in advance if they'll charge you additional fees during your office visit, otherwise you'll walk out of the office feeling like you've been scammed. I called all my girlfriends and asked them if they've ever been charged additional co pays other than the office visit copay during the office visit and not one of them has at any other gyno office. So disappointing and unethical and I'm not the only yelp review with these complaints. read more

I don't even want to give him one star, but I'm forced to in order to post a review and save other women from going to him. I went to Dr. Tahery because I needed to find a new OB and he accepted my insurance. $1,500 out of pocket later....he ran tests that were not needed and pushed pills on me that he conveniently sold in his office because as he stated, "were medically necessary". It was probiotics and boric acid. He claimed my pH balances were off and i had a terrible yeast infection. None of this was true. I found this odd because I had no symptoms and felt completely fine. His diagnosis was that I needed to take two weeks of pro probiotics which he provided and weekly boric acids also which he had on hand. He then assumed and stated I needed to stop eating white bread, white rice, and white pasta... If he would've asked me those questions instead of assuming to make up diagnosis, he would come to find out.....I have not ate any of those in over 10 years. I then went to another OB and got the results i already knew. I never had a yeast infection. I never needed probiotics and my pH levels were completely fine. All he cares about, is scamming you for money. Even his staff is in on it. There were six different incidences where they kept telling me I had to pay another bill after already paying the previous one in full. They kept making up tests and bills for me to pay even though I had not gone to him in three months. When I finally said I was going to get my attorney involved they magically said the bills were paid. Do not go to this terrible man who claims to be a doctor. Clearly the only thing he's good at is a scam artist. read more

I have had two appointments with Dr Tahery. He's professional, he knows what he's talking about and he cares about his patient's health and comfort. During my first visit he was very attentive to my needs/aches and was concerned to helping me feel better. He asked important questions and was able to rule out certain illnesses/issues. The wait time was quick, 10-15 minutes in the waiting room, and 10-15 minutes in the examination room (vitals, blood tests, etc) and the doctor visit is about another 15 minutes. My appointment was at 8:45am, i got there early and i was out by 9am. There is free parking outside the building and there is a pharmacy in the lobby incase you need to pick up any prescriptions. I was a bit apprehensive after reading the one star reviews and then i realized that most of those reviews were in relation to administrative paperwork, rather than the doctor. The doctor is excellent and i haven't had any issues with my insurance or any paperwork. WHAT NEEDS IMPROVEMENT: Some of the nurses could be a bit more warm and welcoming and smile a bit more but it doesn't affect the quality of the service. Also the space itself is an old building so the elevator is small and claustrophobic and the office is also very small and not much space in the rooms to put your personal things down or to settle in comfortably. Other than those two minute kinks, great doctor! read more

I've been going to Dr. Tahery for over 10 years now. His specialty is urogynecology, so unlike urologists who are mainly trained in the male anatomy, his focus is the female "plumbing." After going to several different urologists in the Chicago area, two who distended my bladder in incredibly painful outpatient procedures, I found Dr. Tahery shortly after moving to LA, and he immediately told me that I probably had never had a UTI and the many years of antibiotics and invasive treatments had been useless. He started me on a non-invasive biofeedback therapy course which basically cured my problems. He also delivered my daughter and removed an ovarian cyst - all without complications. Other positives: his office staff is friendly and helpful; I can get an appointment quickly; he returns phone calls quickly; he often calls at home if there is a serious problem just to check in; he takes the time to answer all questions; he is patient and kind. Dr. Tahery is the best! read more

I've found my gynecologist for life! I've had pain and heavy on and off periods for a year. I found out I have fibroids which Dr. Tahery said are very common! I am 53 years old but not yet in menopause. After a thorough exam and biopsy of my uterus lining, I'm Peri menopausal and in great hands with Dr. Michael Tahery!!! He is very gentle, kind, and caring. His Glendale staff are excellent and very nice! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dr. Tahery for any ob/gyn needs!!!! read more

I have been going to Dr Tahery since 2004 he is very knowledgeable and very caring his bedside manner is excellent and also his office staff is very friendly and kind I recommend this office to anyone read more

I just had my baby and I could not be happier with Dr. Tahery. The whole experience was unforgettable. He listened to my birth plan and he told me exactly what I needed to do in order to have natural birth that I wanted. He is so calm and answers your questions always, and is very knowledgeable. He simply is the best! read more

First and foremost I want to say that in the almost 17 years that I've been seeing a gynecologist, I have never met a doctor like, Dr. Tahery, one of a kind in so many ways! For the last two months I've had to deal with A LOT medically, with having to terminate a pregnancy, and then finding out I needed a cystectomy, it was overwhelming. But having Dr. Tahery in my corner has been so great. He's such a thorough doctor, always so direct, yet compassionate. And even though it seems like he's the busiest man, and has a thousand patients, he still makes you seem like you're the most important, and still takes his time to listen, and be there whenever you have a question for him. I am so thankful for all that he's done for me in the short time that I've been his patient. And Arpi and the girls are so sweet, and helpful. A great doctors office all around. read more

I have been going to Dr Tahery for about 10 years now. He is number 1 in my books with his professionalism and knowledge. I have had many pregnancy complications and had 3 miscarriages but through it all with the vast knowledge that he has he's been able to help me with my 3 beautiful babies (recently twin girls). He is so great at listening to your issues and addressing your concerns. Having a baby is pretty scary but knowing you have such an amazing Dr by your side puts your mind and heart at ease. Not only is he the best but he has the most amazing staff. Thank you all, this review doesn't do justice to how amazing this office is. I highly recommend Dr Tahery. read more

I highly recommend Dr. Tahery because he is the most sweetest, caring, and understanding doctor I've ever met in my life. Through my first pregnancy and childbirth, Dr. Tahery was always there for me anytime I needed him and made my experience becoming a first time mom feel so amazing because his positivity kept me strong. My delivery went even better than I expected and now have a beautiful baby boy - 10 lbs 4 oz and by vaginal delivery! (I know, crazy!) He's continuing to help me postpartum and I can't be more grateful that he's my doctor! read more

I've been going to Dr. Tahery for over 9 years now. He's very knowledgeable & thorough, listens to my concerns and has great bed side manners. He's overall an amazing doctor. His staff is also great! Especially the women that work the front desk. I would recommend Dr. Tahery to anyone of my friends/family members. read more

I am shocked with all rude and inconsiderate comments! Dr Tahery has been my OBGYN for 2.5 years, and all I can say he did change my life. There is no need to defend him, his professionalism , amazing work ethics, talent speak for himself. After seeing several specialists, for 10 years straight and receiving one answer: " sweety there is nothing wrong with you", finding a doctor that actually cares and give the correct diagnoses was a blessing in the sky!! I don't think there is any doctor, that will answer your multiple calls after surgery, also will call and check on your condition. Where you can find a doctor that you can trust and actually be conformable to discuss sensitive issues. Dr Tahery is amazing and would highly and strongly recommend him to anyone I know. read more

I and my daughter have been going to Dr. Tahery for years. You are provided with amazing friendly and professional, caring staff and Dr. You will not be disappointed, but I shock compared to other doctors in his field. He is very thorough and finds the answers other doctors could not! Time and time again. I travel far but worth every mile, to get the best care...and allows me to care for my family in top shape. read more

As a doctor, Dr. Tahery is phenomenal. If you want the best care for your lady parts, he is the guy to go to... I found him on Zocdoc and I asked when I arrived if my insurance was good. Front desk folks were like all is well. Unfortunately for me, he was not in my network and I thought he was... This meant that I had quite a large bill when everything was all said and done. My only recommendation is to double, or triple, check if he is in your network. (My plan claims to be PPO but it is not the insurance's plan that is actually named PPO---quite confusing, so just make sure that all is actually well.) read more

I've been seeing Dr. Tahery for years and couldn't be happier with the care I've received. He's very thorough and extremely compassionate, and always makes himself available when patients have questions. The staff is always wonderful and accommodating! read more

Dr. Tahery is probably the most knowledgeable doctor I have seen. I was a little nervous because I've only ever gone to female OBGYN's and wasn't sure what to expect. I felt completely comfortable the entire time. I felt like he was genuinely interested in what I had to say and answered all of my questions fully. I am happy I found him and would recommend him to any friend. read more

Dr.Tahery was extremely thorough with diagnosing. he was truthful,blunt and professional about treatment. a good listener and provided me with excellent service for my medical condition. I appreciate his kindness, concern, and care read more

The professionalism in Dr Taherys office is beyond exceptional! Every time I need to come they make it very easy and convenient, the staff is caring and they make you feel very comfortable in the office. Dr. Tahery is very professional and knowledgeable. He listens and cares about what you have to say. The reception area and the nurses are all great and professional too. I'm hoping Dr. Tahery and his staff stick around in this office for a very long time because finding the right doctor is not fun and I know that I can say I have found the right doctor!! Thank you Dr. Tahery and staff! read more

Doctor Tahery + his team are always so wonderful! Upon entering the office, I am always greeted and seen in a timely manner. The girls at the office are very personable, sweet, and they are so helpful. Doctor Tahery is always very caring, gentle and is always looking out for his patients! If I ever have a question regarding my health, he and his team call me back quickly, putting me at ease. I am a life time patient of his. Thank you! read more

Terrible customer service. Lack of attention , absurd prices on meds even with insurance that should not be given to patient. Before taking any meds that proscribed read read read and consult with another doctor about the consequences read more

My first visit to Dr Tahery was two years ago. Unfortunately, I had miscarriage. He was very attentive and caring, returning my emergency calls, explaining everything. I was so much encouraged and supported by him. Now I am in my second trimester thanks to my knowledgeable and professional doctor! My each and every visit to his office is very smooth and easy, reception desk girls and nurses are nice and helpful. Dr Tahery is a dedicated physician and always handle with care his patients. Thanks for helping me out, doctor! read more

Had my daughter in September 2014 and Dr. Tahery was my doctor! Still hands down the best in town. Working on baby #2 now. He not only rid me of horrible fibroids, he also allowed me give life to my beautiful daughter. I am so grateful for this dr! read more

One of the best Dr that I have ever visited. He takes his time to explain everything any details and he is really care about his patient

Dr Tahery saw me through a follow up from a leep procedure and then recently, the birth of my son. I don't even know where to start with my praise as there's a LOT. My father is a medical negligence lawyer and most of his cases come from Botched births. He's a very skeptical person and when it came to his daughter, even more so. I've never heard my father praise a doctor ever and he was so impressed my Dr. Tahery and for the first time EVER, told me to do whatever my doctor said. Dr. Tahery visited me every day I was in hospital after my delivery, he called me every week for the first month and every few days when I had horrendous Post partum anxiety. When we were doing appointments leading up to the birth, he was conservative yet very careful to make sure every decision that was made along the way, was a decision I was making. He gave me advice yet gave me the freedom to make my own calls on everything and was exceptionally professional. He never intervened unless it was absolutely necessary and always said to me that a c section delivery should always be the last resort. In a time of big business birthing where most doctors want to be in and out and on to the next, that was incredible refreshing. At 27 weeks, I started having contractions. On a Sunday morning of a holiday weekend at 6 am, it took him about two minutes to phone me from my page. That's how he was the entire 9 months. He was away at the time and the next week, Arpi who works in the office just though my she might call me to make sure I was ok. I mean... the CARE from every single person in that office is unbelievable. I cannot recommend this practice more. Dr. Tahery is an asset to all women and it shows in the people he has working for him too. They are all lovely, sensitive and caring. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Tahery now for almost a year and finally feel ready to write a review. After seeing a terrible OB for 3 years who missed all my symptoms, I found Dr. Tahery. He has amazing bedside manner and such a calm demeanor. He really listens which is so hard to find in a Dr. these days. He is also very cautious and likes to find the cause of symptoms rather than just assuming and prescribing meds. He went the extra mile and has helped me get back to my normal lifestyle. His team is also amazing, they get back to you on time and are also very friendly and helpful- a huge shoutout to Arpi who is patient and always willing to help. read more

My first visit to Dr Tahery was two years ago. Unfortunately, I had miscarriage. He was very attentive and caring, returning my emergency calls, explaining everything. I was so much encouraged and supported by him. Now I am in my second trimester thanks to my knowledgeable and professional doctor! My each and every visit to his office is very smooth and easy, reception desk girls and nurses are nice and helpful. Dr Tahery is a dedicated physician and always handle with care his patients.

Dr. Tahery is a true professional. He takes his time and explains every procedure and makes sure that you feel comfortable. His bedside manners are impeccable and he always inspires trust. It doesn't hurt that his staff is really great. I've been with Dr. Tahery for over a decade and he has always been able to properly diagnose and take a proper course of action that takes my long-term health into consideration instead of a quick fix. read more

This review is way overdue! Dr. Tahery is phenomenal. When it comes to health, 2017 was quite a stressful year for me. In March, I was told that I needed to see a urogynecologist because I had symptoms similar to Interstitial Cystitis. (I had never even heard of a urogynecologist..urologist-gynecologist.) I called up my health insurance, Anthem Blue Cross, and they were completely unhelpful. I sat on the phone with them for one hour (after being on hold for one hour,) trying to find a urogynecologist. They said they couldn't find one and would call me back within 7 days. I DID NOT HAVE 7 DAYS TO SPARE. :) Ugh. I was fed up with my body, and had so many questions. The lack of support from my health insurance added more stress to my plate. If you want something done right, you got to do it yourself! I hopped on Yelp and started calling doctors! I stumbled upon Dr. Tahery, and wow -- I am LUCKY! Dr. Tahery cares. He has great "bedside manner", returns ALL phone calls promptly, does his best to see patients right away, and makes sure to have another doctor available if he is away. As it turns out, I do not have IC, and Dr. Tahery fixed me up as good as new, it just took a little time. Ladies, please see him! He is now my regular uro/gyno, and I am happy! Shoutout to his staff as well. I've been to both locations and they are very kind, and quick to assist! read more

Dr. Tahery has the best bedside manner of any doctor I've visited! He is straight forward and honest with his answers. He is knowledgeable and caring. Although he's always very busy (whenever I go to the office, there are many patients) he has a way of making me feel special and he remembers our past conversations. He listens thoughtfully and answers questions patiently. His professionalism is quite impressive! I am happy to have found such an attentive doctor. read more

Dr. Tahery is an excellent doctor. He caught pre-cancer cells in my uterus before it became a serious issue. He also delivered my last child and was incredibly professional and everything went smoothly. Post surgery was wonderful as well because he is incredibly thorough and efficient. Brisa has helped me with any questions I had and also with my newborn so I could have an easy appointment. Arpy helped me with all my insurance and billing issues to make sure everything went smoothly. I definitely give them a five star and would recommend them to any mothers who are very OCD like me. Great doctor and great staff. read more

Dr. Tarhery is truly a gem. He is the only gynecologist I will see now! In addition to being extremely knowledgeable, he has a warm and professional attitude. The office staff is wonderful as well! I am so thankful for his ability to be efficient and thorough; he easily found what other doctors missed. I highly recommend him! read more

I knew that I needed surgery. Yet, I no longer wanted to go with my doctor at the time. I remember not knowing who to trust, or what to do, and just feeling scared, basically. It was a serious decision -because what is more important than your health? Cut to eight years or so later, I know I made the right choice in a Gyn physician/surgeon. And if I had to make the same choice, I would choose Dr. Tahery all over again, in a heartbeat. I update this review periodically because I am so happy to have found such a great doctor. My opinion of Dr. Tahery hasn't changed - at all. If anything, I like him more each time I see him, if that's even possible. Truthfully, with Dr. Tahery, I sometimes have to remind myself that I am not his only patient. That he wasn't just sitting there with nothing else to do, waiting to answer my questions-- all 4,000 of them. In reality, he probably has a long list of patients to see in his office hours that day, and several surgeries to prepare for during that week. On his desk, probably sits a stack of patient messages that he needs to return--which he does promptly and faithfully. And maybe he has been up half the night delivering a new baby, or two. You would never know any of it though. He offers you his time and expertise, kindly and willingly, and makes you feel as if you are the only patient on the schedule for that day. In all of my appointments, I don't remember him ever entering the office without a warm smile and friendly nature. He has a relaxed and very positive energy about him that calms you--which as a fairly nervous patient, I just love, (and need). He is the perfect mix of compassion and confidence. He can advise you, expertly and decisively, on all of your women's health issues--he is the BEST, in my opinion, but, he doesn't put on any airs. He just talks to you straight, as a normal person, with kindness, empathy and heart. It's all in a day's work for him. He just wants to be helpful, and he is. His passion for good health continuously motivates my own interest, and encourages me to take a more active role, in my own health, in all capacities. I have such a high regard and great appreciation for Dr. Tahery. I just find him to be the best and nicest doctor, and really just one of the nicest people in general. He goes out of his way to make an effort for his patients. The same goes for all of the wonderful ladies that assist him in his office, as well. It is always a pleasure to interact with each of them. They are also reliably there to help you whenever you need, in a sweet/caring way, and provide a great office environment for their patients. I would absolutely recommend Dr. Tahery as an outstanding Gyn doctor/surgeon. No hesitations at all. read more
