You can hardly find a doctor like Dr Kochumian, who puts your care before pay. He dedicates as much time as needed to listen and help find a cure. I will always recommend and visit him myself. Thank you doctor. read more

The best doctor in the world--caring, understanding, and incredibly knowledgeable. Since he stopped practicing, I feel lost, like a child who's lost her parents. No other doctor seems good enough for my family. NO ONE CAN SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT DR KOCHUMIAN read more

Those that are defaming Dr. K... shame on you! He truly was / is the BEST Doctor ever. I went to him for over 10 years. I have struggled tremendously in finding another doctor, as there are none like him who possess all of the following qualities: kind, knowledgeable, caring, understanding, professional, and one who listens without rushing you out of the office. I am sad to hear of his fate and only wish him and his family the very best. Thank you Dr. Kochumian for all the years of excellent care you gave me. read more

Mr. doctor Minas Kochumian I went 6 months ago to do x-rays for my chest The doctor told me I have to pay first to see a doctor They charge me $250 Usually they don't charge me I always pay five dollar from my insurance I was there today to do my blood test I told the doctor please I need to do my blood test they told me I'm sorry we cannot do it They tried to get another $250 this place is a fraud They screwing all the customers That's not right when I was there that's how they are doing customer service Please do not go to this place they are ripping people off Shame on you guys read more

No one could say bad stuff about this doctor. Dr. K was an amazing doctor. He was the only one doctor that actually explained to you every detail about your health and problem. I have been going to Dr. K for 15 years and now I'm having a hard time finding someone like him. Which I know whoever i find is not gonna be the same as Dr. K. His staff Anna and Maral were also amazing. I liked the fact that besides him being a great doctor he had everything in his office. X-ray lab and ex. read more

The staff, specifically MARY and some other bimbo were incredibly RUDE! Would not help me with a prescription, she was TALKING OVER ME, and even HUNG UP ON ME. When I was trying to explain to her the situation on my prescription. I will NEVER use this doctor again, unless he fires that rude, disrespectful employee that claims she's been there for "5 years". With that attitude, i don't know how she's made it in the healthcare field. Looks like she forgot the meaning of working in the health field to HELP PEOPLE not LEAVE THEM WITHOUT MEDICATION FOR 3 days. read more

BEWARE! Dr Minas Kochumian pled guilty to Healthcare Fraud and also had to pay over 9.5 million dollars for falsely billing Medicare and Medi-Cal for services and tests never performed. This info and more details released on June 10, 2022 and can be verified at the site of the United States Attorney's Office Eastern District of California. You can also just Google it. The lesson is that what many of these reviews show here turned out to be true. Do your homework as a consumer and don't just pay money if something does not seem right. Also important to report any Doctor who tries to over charge you. read more

The best doctor I've ever known. I've been going to Dr Kochumian for year until I became a Kaiser member. I'll be back soon, hopefully and I'll recommend anyone who's looking for a good doctor read more

Best doctor ever! Dr. Kochumian takes time to listen to his patients and respond to their needs. He truly cdd as res about his patients.

Great Dr. that always has time to discuss medical questions . No rush, no fuss. Very knowledgeable internal medicine Doctor and a great staff to boot. I'm so happy to have him as my primary physician and trust him 100%. read more

Hey if your looking for an awesome Doctor and friendly professional supportive staff this is the place. Dr Kochumian is a blessing, I am very easy going but recently I am sick and tired of BS medical treatment and run around. These guys get it, they know it all about you!! Thank you Doctor Kochumian and staff read more

Dr Kochumian is one of the best doctors we have had. He is like family. He cares deeply about the wellbeing of his patients. He is highly competent and very analytical. He does not push medication first, he strives to understand the cause of the problem and not just treat the symptoms. We have been going to him for more than 10 years. His office is in Northridge and we do not mind driving for over an hour for an appointment with him. His specialty is geriatrics. I have seen him interact with seniors with the utmost care and patience. His front office staff is also very nice. His RN Maral is just as patient and competent. I have even showed up at their office without an appointment once or twice and they were able to accommodate me without giving me a hard time. I cannot recommend Dr Kochumian enough. read more

Best staff and caring doc. Makes me feel comfortable. I go time and time again the more I go more comfortable zi feel. Also takes care of family treats us so nice. read more

My aunt spoke very highly of Dr. Kochumian, so the next day I gave the office a call to schedule an appointment. I was asked if I were a new a patient, I said correct then I was put on hold for over 12 minutes. Long story short I was put on hold for three times to find out the earliest appointment was in two months. Moral of the story; terrible staff. Especially Lina, I believe that was her name. read more

I'm so glad that I chose Dr. Kochumian as my primary care doctor. Every visit to his office has been a pleasant experience since my initial intake. The staff is all very nice and helpful, and the gentleman who is his assistant that gets you ready to see the doctor is awesome as well. The last time I needed an appointment his staff got me in the very next day and it was only for some minor wrist pain. Dr. Kochumian is a very kind and compassionate doctor. He takes his time with you and makes sure to explain things thoroughly. Every time I see him no questions go unanswered, and I leave feeling like he did his very best to care for me. I really couldn't ask for more in a doctor, Dr. Kochumian has been the best primary care doctor I've had the pleasure of retaining. read more

I love this doctor. He is very understanding and always listens to you with care. I totally recommend him to anyone. Wish I could bring my kids here too. He is the best read more

This doctor has been my primary doctor for about 25 years. I am so thankful to this doctor and everyone that works at his office. They always are helpful and patient - All of them, from the doctor, to his assistants to the front desk. There is a reason I've been with this doctor for so long. He is very knowledgeable obviously. I know that I am taken care of well and in the best hands. Thank you to the entire office for there professionalism and kindness. read more

The Doc first examined me while I was unconscious in the summer of 2000 after suffering a stroke and being admitted to the hospital in Glendale. My experience with doctors generally, is that the best time to meet them is while you are unconscious so you don't have to listen to their B.S., which generally provides little or no relief to the problem you are suffering from. I was 55 yrs. old at the time, and have been around many, many doctors in my life given my medical condition. That evening, after waking up, my wife and I met the Doc. For the rest of that week before discharge, I saw him at least once a day, and sometimes more. He continued to treat me for several months after I went home. I attribute much of my full recovery to the Doc's efforts. Over the years that have followed, the Doc has continued to take care of me if I needed it. The thing that separates the Doc from the crowd is "he genuinely cares about his patients." You are not just a file or number. Not long ago I was in a doctor's office who was talking to one of the nurses. He was bragging about seeing 48 people that day and still taking a lunch break. The Doc has built a great practice and has many patients. But, unlike the doctor the other day, the Doc takes the time necessary to try and diagnose the cause of the problem and then figure out the appropriate treatment. He is truly compassionate, a quality that is very hard to find. So, if you are looking for a doctor that is intelligent, experienced, trustworthy, a tireless worker and will "treat you like a person," give the Doc a try, you won't be sorry. read more

Doctor Kochumian is the best GI doctor, he is so caring and understanding, including the fantastic ladies in the office such as Ana, Sarah, Maral, etc... such a wonderful happy helpful environment. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more

Absolutely a blessing to have him as a doctor. Extremely knowledgeable, patient, and caring. One visit will leave a lasting impression. read more

Dr K is great and always friendly. He takes the time to listen without rushing and is detailed in asking questions and providing his analysis. I've found that he is very busy and that regular appointments do need to be scheduled well in advance, sometimes up to 2 months, however when I've truly had an urgent medical need, he and his staff have been very accommodating. Also Maria, his registered nurse and especially Noe, are just as great. I am very pleased and couldn't be happier with Dr K, Maria, Noe and the staff based on my experience and I think his thriving practice helps to show this too. read more

Dr Kochumian was my mother's Dr for 19 years, he is the best Dr I ever met, he is so concerne and very caring about his patients. He was always by my side when my mother had to many health issues, because of him my mother lived longer. Thanks to Dr Kochumian and his staff for always caring for their patients. God bless you all read more

My husband and I have been patients of Dr. Kochumians for about 10 years. Let me start by saying he is the most compassionate caring Doctor I have been blessed with. From the office staff to the nurses and Nurse Practitioner, everyone is amazing! Mary goes above and beyond and is extremely professional anytime we need anything. If for some reason Mary is not available Alyse is super helpful as well. We love you guys. The Smiley Family!!!!! read more

Great doctor and great staff. Been seeing Dr Kochumian for a long time now. He's the best.

The people answering the phone are very rude. God forbid you have medi-cal, I even offered to pay cash for a spirometry test not only did they not tell me the price but they said that if you have medi-cal that they wont accept your cash.. How do these people sleep at night? read more

Dr. Kouchumian has been my mom's family doctor for many years and after going through a recent scare from another doctor I went to, I went to Dr. Kouchumian for a second opinion as it turned out I am perfectly healthy. I saw his wonderful nurse practitioner Jorgette who is so kind and caring just like the doctor. I feel so safe in there care and they always want to take the least line of horrible test until they are absolutely sure that other tests may be needed. They must have a new staff at the front desk because the ladies I spoke with were so kind and caring. I hardly ever give 5 stars but I really am so grateful on my last visit which was just a week or so ago. Thank you so much! read more

My visits to Dr. Kochumian's office have always been greeted by utmost professionalism by his staff and the DR. himself. He is an amazingly compassionated and caring physician who has mastered the skill of bed side manners and the act of listening to his patients. A trend not always found even in the best of doctors. I love his sense of urgency and care when the diagnosis needs to move to the next step of specialists and tests. One of the most compassionate and knowledgeable doctors I have had to visit in a long time..... read more

I would recommend Dr Kochumian to anyone who reads this!!! I have been going to his office for years as well as my family upon the recommendation of a friend who also believes in him. His office is crazy busy, but!....you will still see Dr on time AND he takes special time to make sure you leave without questions. You never feel rushed. The staff go out of their way to help, I have needed special needs for a family member, and gets it done. Special shout out to Mary. She is always patient and kind. If you want help in a caring, professional and personal way. See Dr Kochumian. read more

f'ing brutal experience. I came to Dr. K as a new patient because i had been sick for over 6 months and my previous physician could not figure out the cause of my illness. after testing positive for coxsackie virus, EBV and lyme disease, instead of discussing treatment options Dr. K grilled me about anxiety disorders then referred me to an infectious disease doctor who dismissed all of my positive test results without explanation. he then allegedly told Dr. K to send me to a therapist. i received no treatment over the course of 10 months except for 4 weeks of ABx which destroyed my gut so i had to discontinue. my condition progressively became worse, then i ultimately suffered a severe attack which prompted my family to call 911. after my attack Mary (office manager) called me to inform my family that Dr. K would no longer see me as a patient and that i should go see a therapist and never return. WTF. after extensive testing my current doctor who specializes in integrative medicine determined that i had developed toxicity of the liver/gallbladder/kidneys, global chronic infections, lymphatic stagnation, thyroid issues, anemia, compromised immune system (low CD57-NK) and food intolerances. Dr. K did not address any of these problems and he did not take my list of symptoms seriously even when i complained of severe abdominal & chest pain that had persisted for over a year. i am generously giving his office 2 stars because the nurses were nice albeit unhelpful. one of the front office employees was consistently rude to me for no apparent reason. most of the staff in the front office were generally helpful until Dr. K instructed them to refuse me care. i am deducting 3 stars b/c i am very disappointed with how Dr. K unceremoniously dumped me as a patient after i was hospitalized 12 times in one year and he never offered a diagnosis or treatment plan. they were also negligent by withholding information about my test results which led to months of unnecessary suffering. they also refused to make me an appointment on multiple occasions and my insurance company had to intervene. i would not recommend this office if you suffer from a serious illness or disease b/c if your affliction is beyond the scope of Dr. K's expertise he will probably gaslight you and play games with your mind and your health. overall impression, his staff seemed interested in helping me get well in the beginning but when the test results revealed that i was chronically ill Dr. K and Mary made an unethical and despicable decision to abandon me as a patient when i required urgent medical care... read more

Genuinely empathetic; extremely knowledgeable; highly experienced; remarkably compassionate; very patient - never rushes you, explains his findings very clearly and makes sure you understand. Dr. Kochumian is highly respected in the community. Not only do his patients recommend him as an exceptionally intelligent and kind doctor but he is also highly recommended by other doctors and professionals in medicine who know his level of expertise, ethics and professionalism. As I sit in his waiting room, I consistently hear patients praise Dr. Kochumian. I agree. He is truly one of a kind. His patients, such as I, think the world of him, and he thinks the world of his patients! read more

I really love Dr kochumian and his staff. Been a patient of his for years. Today I had he pleasure of meeting with his FNP Georgina. She was WONDERFUL!! Such a lovely woman. She made it so easy to talk to her. Really had a great experience and needed to post this review. Dr kochumian is also easy to talk to. Drs appts are rarely comfortable but they have both managed to show that as medical professionals they actually care. Great drs who really show they care are not common in my past experiences. This office is great from the front office staff to the back office staff like Noe and Maral! read more

One of the best doctors I've ever met. He provides such kindness and gentle care in taking care of my 85 year old mother. She is in the best of hands. Thank you Dr. Kochumian and staff. I'm so thankful we have found you. Julie J. read more

Dr. Kochumian's staff takes rudeness and incompetence to a new level. They cannot seem to get even the simplest of tasks completed without error. Common requests such as a change of address or phone number, a prescription refill, and getting a referral to a specialist are all beyond his staff's capabilities. An annual wellness exam, free under most insurance plans, such as mine, is surely to get miscoded and a collection notice is certain to arrive months after the exam. If they were simply incompetent, some of these things could possibly be forgiven, if the mistakes were corrected and it became a learning experience for his staff, but they are also just about the rudest bunch of people one could have the misfortune of having to deal with. read more

The best primary care physician in the Valley. Our family has been using this doctor for years, he is really doctor you can trust. He will quickly diagnose just about anything and get the right cure for it. Yes, he is extremely busy, but it only says how good he is. If you need a good family doctor- he is the one!! read more

Dr, Minas Kochumian could care less if you live or die. He only cares about the mighty dollar. The US has turned the Medical industry upside down with it's GREED! This doctor is listed in the Medical Health care book which clearly states the he accepts Medical. His code is 9KWFXMH. See for yourself! When you call his office, they tell you that this is an error and that he does not accept medical. Look in the book and see for yourself. This is so disturbing. How do these people look at themselves in the mirror everyday? Isn't this false advertisement? read more

The Doctor K he is very nice and caring.The staff is very unprofessional. I have been putting up for 2 years I will never go to him again until he changes his staff. to singe up paper for insurance they are charging $20.00 to give a prescription they are charging $20.00. they only care about your money not your health stay away. read more

This office is all about looks, social class, and race. I went to this office based off the positive reviews, but these reviews couldn't be further from the truth. I never got to see DR. Kochumian maybe me have medicaid is not to his standards. The office manager was not professional or courteous. My over all experience wasn't positive. I was not treated fairly. Had i been Armenian or been rich i would have been treated better like i observed other were. The breaking point was Np Georgina leaving the office. She was always helpful. They no longer are taking any medicaid plans. I wouldn't recommend this office to anyone. read more

Dr. Kochumian is really great! My entire family has been going to him for many years and we are all so happy with him. Just last week my mother (Vilma Ishanyan) spoke with Lina and asked for an urgent appointment and she graciously gave her a same day appointment so she could meet with the doctor. The doctor really takes his time when he is with you and makes sure to answer all of your questions and concerns. For anyone seeking quality care, I highly recommend checking out Dr. Kochumian! read more

I absolutely love Dr. Kochumian and his staff! I have been a patient here for over 10 years and would highly recommend this doctor to everyone. I have been so well cared for here. As a patient with several health problems, I can honestly say that Dr. Kochumian has saved my life. He caught many of my illnesses very early on and always referred me to a wonderful specialist whenever necessary. I would not be alive today if it wasn't for this doctor. Whenever an outside referral is necessary, his staff always helps me schedule an appointment before I leave the office. Most doctor offices just give you the referral and expect you to call multiple places to get an appointment with another doctor or imaging center. This is not the case here. My appointments are always scheduled for me with the time preferences I request so I never need to feel overwhelmed. I am very well taken care of here. Dr. Kochumian is an amazing doctor who is knowledgeable and kind. I never feel rushed during my visits. He listens to my problems intently and tells me what my symptoms mean. He has given me several shots for my arthritis and this has helped diminish my pain immensely. I also cannot say enough good things about his staff. I am always greeted with smiles and warm wishes. All the nurses are fabulous and great at what they do. Whenever I require a shot or bloodwork, I never even feel the needle injection because they are so skilled. I am terrified of needles and hate it when I bruise up after blood tests. This has not happened to me here. The nurse (all of them are sweet!) always finds a way to calm me down before inserting the needle, and before I even open my eyes, the work is done. Every time I call the office because I feel unwell, I am always given an appointment. I always recommend Dr. Kochumian to my friends and family. I love this doctor and staff very much and would not want to go anywhere else. read more

I highly recommend Dr.Kochumian to everyone. I've gone to many doctors in my lifetime. He is by far the best.He always takes time,never tries to hurry me.The staff is always friendly and professional. I want to give a shout out to Lena. I've had the most contact with her.She is terrific. read more
