worked with her for almost 6 months for my 2 years old son and 6 years old gird and had a terrible experience. She has serious anger issues and very low tolerance which is the most important skill to have when pediatrician working with kids. always late and always rushing, second half of the visit she just stands by the half door open. during last visit my son had very high fever and she was again about to leave the room which I objected as we still had concerns and unanswered questions, she outraged and started yelling in front on my sick son with her angry eyes that I did enough and have to go and giving lecture for 2 minutes with a very loud voice, we were shocked and stayed silent as we didn't want to fight her in our sick son's presence. read more

Dr. Varamini has been our children's pediatrician for several years and supported our family through many situations in health; from illnesses to physical injuries. She has earned my trust and confidence in her as we've worked together caring for my three children. Her demeanor has created a feeling of partnering with a doctor who cares for my children as if they are her own. She continued to advocate and give valuable options when we hit a wall with a specialist. She takes the time to make sure we understand the information and uses visuals when necessary. She or her staff always return emails and calls and have Saturday appointments. The staff at the front desk is efficient and friendly both on the phone and in person. Norma is friendly and somehow can make shots seem like they hardly even happened! She's a gem with her positive personality and eagerness to help. My children love seeing her too! Dr. Varamini is a very compassionate doctor who actively listens without judgment, shows empathy and sets a comfortable and safe space for sensitive issues, gives validation and shares her knowledge and experience which allows my children feel comfortable with her. We started seeing her after a year of misdiagnosis and many procedures with no progress at Kaiser. Within a few visits she had us on the right path and my daughter was finally receiving the correct treatment. This was due to her keen listening combined with her experience to not keep the cookie cutter service, step outside the box and find healing for my child; and it worked. Our daughter has a few specialists on her team of care. Dr. Varamini works right along side in making sure us parents understand lab results and treatment options provided by the other doctors. She goes above and beyond to be a part of the team and not just refer us and walk away. It is evident to us that she truly cares for her patients and the outcome of their care. Over the years she has helped our family navigate several health issues and as a parent I've always felt respected. She encourages questions and provides such gentle, yet confident guidance in the decisions we make. Her preventive care appointments are great too; my children leave those feeling empowered to set healthy goals and celebrated for their progress. I've always felt that the measure of a great doctor is when things are complicated and they are put to the test. Dr. Varamini has passed that test with flying colors! We have switched insurance companies to have her and each year make sure we are with the correct plan (not that her office changes but we've had insurances change) and drive a distance to see her because we know the level of care she provides is tough to find. Dr. Varamini has consistently demonstrated her knowledge, compassion, strong communication and advocacy for our three children over many years. We know we are very fortunate to have found her. read more

I wish Dr. Varamini was my doctor when I was a child:) I've never met such a caring, knowledgable, and thoughtful doctor as she is. My son graduated from her care as he is over 22 now but my daughter is still a patient of Dr. Varamini. Doctor's diagnosis is always accurate and are made in a timely manner. She spends a lot of time to gather information, discuss any concerns, and answer all the question we have for her. It is always done in a clam manner with plenty of explanations. I am an extremely nervous Mom and Dr. Varamini always finds a way to bring my worries down and this alone means so much to me! Thank you Dr. Varamini for your knowledge, positivity, and an unmatched professionalism in pediatric care! PS. Norma, Dr. Varamini's nurse, is also an extremely kind person with great bedside manners. Always patients and compassionate. Simply can not recommend them enough!!! read more

$10 for a signature to get my child's school form signed. I mean...really? Google says that medical records can not be charges more than 50 cents per page, but I just simply needed a signature of the form that I have filled out myself, not even a printed page from them. Cheap and low... read more

She always takes the time to answer your questions. You can tell she really cares for her patients and families she serves.

Dr. Varamini is an excellent pediatrician! She is very kind, very knowledgeable and a great listener. Wait times may vary but it's because she is not treating her patience like numbers and ensures a thorough visit every time. I can definitely appreciate that. Dr. Varamini is very considerate of parent /physician collaboration to ensure the best care is provided to our precious little ones. My children and I are super happy with Dr. Varamini. read more

Awful patient service! My experience with her was terrible during the year she was seeing my newborn. We always wait a long, and it looks like she doesn't care about other people's time. The last time we visited her when we asked why it took over an hour for her to visit us, she started yelling at us. She said there is no doctor's appointment without waiting; she was yelling and screaming at us about her being right to be late for over half an hour when my son was watching and was scared of her behavior. She is always late and will not spend over 5 minutes with my kids during a check-up. That shows how arrogant she is with her patients and parents. seeing her is neither helpful nor informative. It is always pretty short. Other than her, everyone in her office is rude and unprofessional like they know there won't be any consequence for being rude to the patients. they, collectively, are rude, short, and dismissive about really anything you're calling for. I actually dread having to call their office knowing that I'll be met with the most sarcastic and rude attitudes. Please take your time to do more research and find a better doctor for your kids. read more

Dr. Varamini has been our pediatrician for now decades. literally for decades (she was my sister pediatrician as well who is now beyond her 30s!!). She is absolutely amazing and I have recommended her to all my friends. and NONE of them have been disappointed. My work is surrounded by physicians and one thing that I know is so difficult is being able to diagnose your patient. She is always on point!!!!! WHICH IS GOLD to any human who wants to be correctly treated!!!!! She and her team always call back to make sure I have all the information I need to address my children health. Norma is also amazing and has been working with her for as long as I can remember. She always calls me back with results. I am blessed to know that there are still people like her who truly care about her patients health. She has been educated in an environment where Medicine was about taking care of people and excellence in the knowledge of medicine is an art! and she goes above and beyond all of this!!! Being a scientist myself, i know how science can be so tricky and you have so many different factors looking at each person health. This is why today we talk about Precision Medicine. She is amazing at diagnosing and treating her patients. My daughter has gone through a terrible infection and she was right on track from the beginning to make sure we got the best best treatment and she was with us through the whole process. She has many many patients exactly because they also know she is the best. Having lived in many countries and seeing multiple healthcare systems, i can only attest to her true professionalism and expertise. read more

Doctor Veramini and her staff provide the best care.for my son, she thorough and accurate in her diagnosis, she listens to patient concerns and provides recommendations and responses for the best course of action. read more

Dr. Varamini has been looking after my 3 children since they were born. She is an incredible doctor. She always takes her time during our visits and is extremely thorough and approachable. Dr. Varamini felt that my daughters thyroid was enlarged and immediately ordered every test needed. She was diagnosed with a thyroid disease and the endocrinologist was so impressed with her quick diagnosis. She has treated my daughters anxiety and has just in general ALWAYS been there for us. If you want a doctor who loves her patients, Dr. Varamini is where you want to go. I would also like to say that the front office is very friendly and that Norma (Dr. Varamini's nurse) is WONDERFUL. We feel very blessed to have such amazing health care. read more

This doctor has no regards for patient's time. She always runs behind and the latest appointment with her we had to wait over an hour to be seen by her. Her front staff are rude with no smile on their faces. The only person with a smile on her face in the office is Norma, she is always cheerful. My daughter came in with some diagnostic from Attention Center and this doctor without having done any work declared that she had ADHD and that she needed to be on medication. I am glad I didn't put my child on med but instead find tutors and let her do independent study and now she is doing work at 10-11th grade level for a 12 year old. And by the way it is ok for this doctor to let the patients wait for over an hour but if the patient is late for 10-15 minutes she would send them back home and reschedule. I have been with this doctor for over 10 years and she never never spends over 5 minutes with my kids in a check up, whether it is a new born or annual check up. That shows how arrogant she is with her patients. Overall bad client service, need improvement. read more

my experience with her was not pleasant. we always wait a long time to see her and when she comes in to the room, we feel rushed. she's always late and always rushing. when i talked to her about her punctuality, she said "there is no doctors appointment that you don't wait." and "you come to the busy time and day of the week, if you would like i can recommend you to a doctor that you don't have to wait." not a CI care response. when i asked her to order on some tests to make sure we know the source of the issue, she said, "this is called fishing and that is bad medicine, but for your peace of mind, i will do it." i just want to make sure none will be missed and the Stanford way was to make sure none will be missed. and unluckily, their lab mixed up all the cultures they sent and when one came up positive, no one was sure which one is which. Her responses was not CI care at all and not reassuring. and lastly, she keeps on saying we are a patient of her colleague-and i said, no we signed up for you (she was on leave by the time our son was born). after saying that we are her colleague's patient 3 times of our visits with her, i just felt changing our doctor to her colleague's in another clinic. read more

Having this doctor for many years, im surprised im not dead by now. I would always get sick and i still do.. so i am kind of a hand full...I was a patient of dr varamini for 5+ years forsure. When I first started going to her She was never in a rush the first year of seeing me.. then things changed. She does not care about her patients and wants to constantly be rushing . Apptments are back to back and she doesnt want to hear the issues people are having. In second grade, my mom had to pull me out of school for half the year because I kept having a high fever and throwing up over 5 times EVERY night. as i am an adult now, i am sure NO PARENT wants to see their kids in this much pain. Dr varamini had no clue what was going on with me.. ok thats fine... but she kept puting me on SO MANY different medications as if i was a TESTING ANIMAL. Eventually, she told me to go to specialists.. went to specialists they said they have NO CLUE what was going on with me. The specialist she sent me to had nothing to do with why i was sick. Another incident that happened was I had something weird growing on my skin... alright whatever.. i asked her to refer me to a dermatolagist.. she told me she can do it herself but it would cost multiple apptments. I went to three and kept paying the copay and got NOTHING out of it. She was getting paid for no reason. So after i left her office because i was so frustrated on how much of a terrible doctor she is i went to an adult doctor. She refered me to a dermatologist and it took one apptment to take that extra skin off my skin. So obvi dr varamini did not know what she was talking about. before i switched doctors it was around christmas time and i got pneumonia. I felt like dying. I went in dr varamini was not there so i saw dr hayes. He is also an idiot. He has NO CLUE what he is talking about. He just gave me some random medication and had NO CLUE I HAD PNEUMONIA. AND HE WAS PRESCRIBING ME RANDOM MEDICATION. I AM NOT A LAB RAT TO TEST ON ME. If you want your kids to be tested like lab rats and have no time to speak with your doctor this is the place for you! ONLY GAVE ONE STAR BC NORMA IS A REALLY COOL NURSE. Other than that everyone else sucks and does not have good knowledge at all. read more

Dr. Varamini has been my doctor since i was 9, (I am now 20) She and Norma (her physicians assistant) are the best! They are so nice and have always given attentive and good care. I am so sad I have to be leaving her care soon (bc i'm old :(( ) I am so grateful for their kindness and expertise. read more

I cannot begin to say enough good things about Dr. Varamini. My daughter has had a lot of strange difficult symptoms to diagnose over the years and we have tried many different pediatricians. Dr. Varamini by far is the best diagnostician. SHE IS BRILLIANT. This is a doctor with an engineer's analytical skills. I love her so much. Sincerely, Cheryl Eichstaedt read more

It's been 2 years, now my daughter also sees Dr Varamini. We love her, she is always supportive and professional. The staff there is very friendly and now they have a weekend oncall location close to the clinic. read more

Dr. Varamini is the absolute best!! I would easily give her more than 5 stars due to her knowledgeability, warm nature, and kindness. I feel so blessed that she was my pediatrician for as long as I can remember. She is incredibly knowledgeable and does not rush her patients EVER. Other pediatricians have tended to rush through each of my appointments, but Dr. Varamini takes the time to talk to and understand what I am telling her. She cares so much about all of her patients and gives me her undivided attention whenever I am in her office, which I appreciate so much :) For me, it is important that I establish trust with my doctors and Dr. Varamini was able to create such a loving and non-judgemental environment for me, so it was easy to ask her any personal questions or discuss things that usually make me uncomfortable. She is such a sweetheart and has been able to help me and my younger sister with every health issue we have come across in the past 10 years, and I am forever grateful for her! read more

Dr.Varamini the best doctor my 3 year old has had for the past 2 years!! She listens to the problem, is super helpful and great with my daughter. My daughter enjoys going to the Doctor and never wants to leave haha. I am super happy and thankful I found her and was able to make her my daughters physician! Love love love her and her medical assistant NORMA omg she is just as great!!!! read more

Dr. Varamini has been my 2 daughter's (now ages 15 and 19) pediatrician for many years. This doctor has a very special quality of taking her time to evaluate everything that might be going on to determine a diagnosis. As a result, she is highly sought after in complex situations. Her manner both with me and my daughters is comforting, compassionate and instills confidence that your child is in the right hands. Dr. Varamini is the best pediatrician around and we were so fortunate to find her. Her trusty nurse Norma is terrific too! Her smile and always pleasant manner has made my daughters feel at ease even when shots are involved. I couldn't ask for a better team for my children with Dr. Varamini and Norma!! read more

Nadereh Varamini has been our pediatrician for about 1.5 years. My 15 month old son fell and cut his forehead. He had to get 4 stitches in the emergency room. We went to Dr. Varamini for folow up care the day after. She inspected the wound and decided when to remove the sutures. We came back for suture removal 7 days later. I had read about the procedure online. She did not follow the lift up the knot with the forceps and clip the thread sideways method. She tried to put the blunt ended safety scissors under the thread vertical to the wound (a big no-no) and cut it that way. My son was not very still, but she is a pediatrician and she decided not to call the nurse to hold him still either. In the end the wound was reopened and blood was running down his chin. It took an extra week to close again. It looked like she was doing this for the first time. You don't need a PhD to realize if you cut the thread only on one side, you can gently pull the knot away from the other end versus clipping the whole knot away and leaving tiny thread stubs that will be very hard to hold and remove. What kind of suture removal is that? Until that point the nurses were complimenting on how well the scar was healing and what a good stitch job has been done at the ER. He now has a recessed scar in the center of his forehead. That will remind! me of Dr. Varamini every time I see it. I feel I could have done a better job than she did. She not only ruined the cosmetic surgery grade stitches we had put in for over $ 1500 at the ER, my son's stress and suffering were rendered pointless. 4 nurses aids held him down while he screamed at the top of his lungs straight for half an hour to get those stitches right.. We simply could have left the cut untreated for the same results. I have been putting every scar treatment cream available on his forehead for the last 11 months with very little improvement. I wish I had silently removed the sutures at home while he slept. You just think this is in the middle of his face, a professional should do it. And now he will have a scar for the rest of his life. I feel so guilty as a mom for not properly protecting my infant sons best interest and letting this happen. I should have walked out of her office when she would not call the nurses to keep him still and I knew she was using the scissors wrong. You just assume she is a highly rated professional and she knows what she is doing. My boy is very active. He fell and had another cut on his forehead since then. We were on a holiday and we had it all done in southern California. I am very very happy with the results. There was absolutely no bleeding at the suture removal. Thanks to the doctors at the Newport Beach Hoag Hospital ER, he had another 6 stitches less than an inch from this wound and there is no scar after 4 months. If I did not see how well the second wound was treated and how miraculously it healed, I would not know what a bad job has been done with the first one. Live and learn. read more

My Wife and I have had Kaiser as our Healthcare provider for some time. Every time we had to take our girls to see their pediatrician, he was always so quick to rush us in and out to see other patients that most of the time we never got any other answers but, "well give it some time.. this is normal!" Well, if you are a parent and see your kids in pain, there is nothing normal about that right? Anyhow, about two years ago around the H1N1 flu outbreak, our oldest daughter who was around 1 1/2 years old came down with a bad flu and super high fever to a point where she was getting convolutions. When we called the stupid Kaiser nurse line, they kept on telling us there was no need to panic and that she was fine and there was no need for us to do anything other than giving her Tylenol and letting her rest. When I asked them if we need to take her to hospital to get tamiflu shots, they said absolutely not since they do not give tamiflu to kids under two years of age. I called at least three times after my initial call to make sure of this statement and each and every time I was told the same stupid answer. I don't know why but I guess my parental instinct kicked in so I started calling around to see if we can find a doctor or clinic outside of Kaiser to take our daughter to regardless of visitation price. By now it has been almost two days since our daughter had broken out with high fever. If you remember, the only drug that actually helped people who had been infected with H1N1 was tamiflu and it was only effective within the first 48 hours of symptoms such as fever and etc.. Finally aftger calling at least 15 different places from phone book, we finally were able to connect with Dr. Varamini at around 6:30pm. By this time her office was closed and I think it was a miracle that she answered our call. When we told her what we had gone through with Kaiser, she urged us to go see her ASAP. By the time we got to her office, it was almost 8:30pm and she had waited for us for almost two hours. When we got to her office, there was no one there but her. She spent almost an hour and half testing our older daughter and our new born. When she found the traces of H1N1 flu, she immediately administered the tamiflu shots at her office. I honestly believe if Dr. Varamini would have turned us away, I'm not sure what would have happened to our daughter. I have asked this question from several doctors so far and all have said the same thing... you and your daughter are very very lucky !! So far I have not seen any doctor as kind and as caring as Dr. Varamini. If you know of any doctors who would opened up their practice to someone who is not even their patients four hours after they had closed their office, I like to know them. Even though we still have Kaiser, we take our kids to Dr. Varamini at least three or four times a year for checkups. She is nothing short of an angel god has brought down for us. Honestly when I look back, if my kids were not seen by Dr. Varamini that night, I have no idea if my kids would have been around today... I THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART DOCTOR!!! FIVE X 10000000000 HEALTHY STARTS TO YOU DR. VARAMINI !! YOU ARE SIMPLY THE BEST!! read more

Dr. Varamini is a God Send!! I met her about 4 years ago, my son was ill on a Saturday and his regular doctor wasn't on call... Dr. Varamini was. She looked and examined my son and immediately instructed me to take him to the hospital for a STAT blood test... to make a long story short, my son ended up having a virus called TEC, Transient Erythroblastopenia of Childhood (form of anemia) and needed three blood transfusions to "jump-start" his blood cells. The doctors at Stanford said that if we would have waited a day, we would have had to have dealt with other much more severe issues because his heart when we got him to the hospital was going through tachycardia... After 4 days in the hospital and of course a lot of TLC, Connor thank God, recovered from this virus. A few months later, Dr. Varamini noticed a heart murmur (unrelated to the TEC); she felt it was important that we get it checked out... After getting checked out by a cardiologist, it turned out he had an ASD, Atrial Septal Defect... a hole in his left atrium. Connor had heart surgery two months later. Thank God as well as Dr. Varamini, Connor is a happy, healthy, very active 5 year old!!! To say that Dr. Varamini is a God send is an understatement. Her dedication to her patients, practice and families goes far beyond what is expected from a doctor. She is very thorough and professional, yet her bedside matter is that of a loving, caring and nurturing Friend. My three children will forever see Dr. Varamini, she is truly the BEST!! read more

Both my kids love Dr Varamini. My 16 year old son is not willing to change his Dr to a male adult Dr since he feels so comfortable with Dr Varamini. She is very professional and caring. She takes her time with her detail examination. She answers all of our questions and explain everything we need to know. She goes out of her way to help us. I couldn't have asked for a better pediatric. read more

We started seeing Dr. Varamini a few months back when his peds at the time could not fix a simple yeast infection under the neck. Dr. Varamini took one look and knew what is was right away and prescribed meds that fixed the issue within days. She is great with spending time with each patient, provides suggestions on some home remedies but is also aggressive when you need her to be. She always has same day sick appointments when child is sick. That can be good and bad, good if you have a sick child and need same day appointment but if you had existing appointment but have to wait 30 minutes to see her. Overall, I don't mind the wait since she takes her time checking our baby and answers all of our questions. I have recommended her to my family and friends and they seem to be happy with her as well. read more

Dr. Varamini has been such a blessing to my family. She was recommended to me by a mother I met who raved about her... she was right. Dr. Varamini is by far the best pediatrician we have ever had. My boys adore her. Her bedside manner is compassionate and fun. She has great expertise in pediatric dermatology studies as well so it's like seeing two pediatric specialists. She is very knowledgeable and familiar with alternative medicines as well which I like to use. She is not an antibiotic pusher. She really treats the whole child, not just the symptom. She calls back and checks in when we have more concerning issues. Her office staff are so nice and easy to work with. So grateful we found her! She is the BEST! read more

Dr Varamini is the best. My girls love her. She is kind, thorough and patient. As a person who is also in the medical profession, she came highly recommended by other physicians. It's no mystery why.

I can't say enough about Dr. Varamini. Here is just one more example of her pediatric skills and human kindness: About a month ago, my daughter asked me to look at her shin. Unbeknownst to me, she had a huge abscess on it. It was Friday at 1pm (her lunch time), and we were just about to leave for a trip up north. I called Dr. Varamini and she told me to bring my daughter to her right away. Within 30 minutes of arriving at the office, our daughter was all fixed up. Dr. Varamini had aspirated and dressed the wound, prescribed medication (she called it in herself so that we could get it fast), and we were able to get on the road as planned. Dr. Varamini missed her lunch so that we did not have to miss our trip. Thank you Dr. V.. You are amazing!!!!! read more

Ok so my 3 boys have had there pediatrician since they where born. I trusted him 100% with my boys. 2 years ago I notice my back then 4 year old was loosing weight really fast from 65 lb went down to 40lb within 2 months I took him to his pedo office and they said he was fine then I notice he was having trouble going bathroom again back to the pedo office and again nothing he is normal all the doctor would prescribe was miralax. I had that mother instinct that something was wrong few weeks ago and search for a second opinion. Thank god I found DR. Varamini took 2 years to make that big step ( yes I know 2 yrs long time) but I booked a appt after explaining my sons issues to them they booked him asap. Went in and Dr. Varamini was so sweet and welcoming she ask so many questions to get my sons history witch I was glad she was actually interested in getting all info. Well after 1 hour she diagnosed my child and even made a plan for us to follow and send him for X-rays that day. Well ok after all this it's sad that a doctor you trusted was to lazy to do a thero exam on your child. I highly recommend this office 100%. Don't take chances on your kids health. read more
