    James
    Jennifer M.

    Dr Souroush Adam Ramin is looking after my autistic son James. James lost his right testicle to cancer on May 30, 2019. I was assured that he was 100% cured and that I should wait until January/ February 2021 before testing him again. I was scolded and quoted statistics for trying to getting him tested sooner. I am so grateful to Dr Ramin for taking this matter seriously and not just quoting statistics at me. Statistics are fine if you are buying a car, but when it's your child's life, you want to weigh your child's specific reality as well as the insurance statistics. James's Tumor Marker has steadily climbed since he finished chemo in 2019. While I was told he was well, he did not seem well to me. He never bounced back and was bedridden most of this past year. Dr Ramin ordered tests other doctors refused to order until next year. It would be a sin to allow James to suffer until January 2021 and have to go through metastasis TWICE. Autistic people deserve early diagnosis as much as the general population. Some doctors blame autism for late diagnosis but with today's technology there are ways around the problems. James has multiple, unrelated health issues and some doctors are reluctant to even try to diagnose him because of this. An autistic person who can't keep a Zio patch heart monitor on CAN have an implant monitor (according to the psychiatrist/neurologist we consulted) to rule out heart disease as the cause of sharp pain and fainting. James is on Warfarin because he has a history of blood clots and has Factor II G20210A mutation. I had been told by one angry cardiologist that I must simply accept James could suffer sudden death from a blood clot at any minute. That is not true. James is now taking Warfarin and can have a long happy life. There is never a need to throw up your hands and say autistic people can't be diagnosed. If you believe your autistic child is sick but their doctor is doing nothing, take the advice a psychiatrist who examined James gave me: Go AROUND any doctor who will not help your son. You are his advocate. Keep going until you find a doctor who will help him. Don't let them give him Ativan again (the psychiatrist carefully weaned James off Ativan and was appalled by the psych medications other doctors had given James with to make him stop crying (when he had undiagnosed cancer that was metastasizing). James was even given an injection of Haldol to make him shut up in the ER and it shut his throat closed. He had a severe allergic reaction to it. He was crying in PAIN but it was treated as a mental illness because he is autistic. The repeated over use of Ativan in the emergency room also caused withdrawals that almost killed James). The psychiatrist told me: "Your son is NOT mentally ill. Autism is not a mental illness. I believe your son has physical pain. Go around any doctor who will not help your son." Sadly, James's cancer was diagnosed in the Emergency Room because none of the doctors who were treating him at the time would order tests other than urine tests to prove it wasn't a bladder infection. They blamed autism. They blamed me. They told me to use behavior modification, to do my job as a mother and to MAKE him get out of bed. Even when the cancer made James limp Christmas 2018, his urologist and primary care said "autistic people often walk funny." The cancer in the right testicle had attached the testicle to the skin of James's scrotum. It hurt to walk. I showed his doctors video of him walking. When the right testicle was removed via TWO incisions because it was attached to his skin, in May 2019, James stopped walking funny. It wasn't autism. It was cancer. I am very grateful to Dr Ramin for taking this seriously. It is beyond heartbreaking that other doctors are still telling me nothing is wrong with James, that it can wait until 2021. Something is wrong. James is not well. Thank God for Dr Ramin. I highly recommend him.

Other doctors brushed it off, but Dr. Houman took the time to truly listen and explain how varicoceles can cause pain and impact sperm quality and hormones. His depth of expertise in microsurgical varicocele repair and testicular pain treatment is obvious. He was thorough, honest, and never pushed unnecessary treatment. The care felt very precise and highly specialized. Since treatment, my testicular pain has significantly improved and my fertility testing showed significant improvement! Just as important, I finally felt confident and supported throughout the process. If you're dealing with varicoceles, chronic testicular pain, or infertility and want a urologist who genuinely specializes in men's health, I highly recommend Dr. Houman.

We were flying back from San Franciso and they were booked solid, but the staff understood the urgency and gave us the first cancellation later that afternoon. Dr. Houman saw me immediately; quickly understood the issue at hand, personally swung into action, and ten minutes later had the situation under complete control. He wrote a prescription, gave me exact instructions what to do and what to look for over the next few days, and scheduled a follow-up appointment a few days later. A week later, the issue is in the rear view mirror and I have urologist for life. Dr. Houman is down to earth, very personal, and clearly cheering you on for success. His entire staff follow his lead - a terrific group of healthcare professionals.

He did not take my full medical history into account when treating me and as a result I am now having to navigate issues related to poor treatment and management. Due in part to incomplete informed consent. I also experienced him as dismissive when I asked about a suspected genetic disorder stating "it would not change treatment" but according to my new doctor it changes things significantly. I thought this was a LGBTQ+ safe and affirming practice but that only seems to apply to some parts of that population and not others... He pushes treatments that are inline with harmful dominant cultural norms rather than affirming patients. My life is significantly worse and has been for years because of the poor care i got at this clinic which is made all the more disappointing by the exorbitant cost. Joshua is the doctor that finally broke me and had totally destroyed my trust of doctors and the medical system writ large. I will never trust a doctor implicitly again especially those that on paper appear to have a good pedigree. My life has been made significantly worse as a result of trusting Joshua with my care. If you want a provider who is affirming and practices holistically and with care go elsewhere

Thanked me for taking the time out of my busy schedule, to get there, and early. If he's running a little late, he has always apologized so far, although one cannot undo tardiness. But at least he's not late like a lot of these gynecology offices are, and with no apologies nor real attempts to improve, to use as one example. Some of the few things I would say to work on are perhaps to not try to sway a patient to use the portal. If this is in UCLA's staff training, they need to stop doing this. There are many patients like me who prefer for various reasons not to use the portal. And we should never be made to feel that we won't get as good of a response from the doctor and office if we choose not to use it, being direct or indirect about it. We also should not be told falsehoods/insinuations like, how 'everyone else is using the portal" 'it's easier to use than calling in, and that it is implied that "I'm the only one that doesn't use the portal" or maybe even 'most people use the portal- so should you'- kind of a disposition- no matter how true some of those might be, even if)'. This is not so much a singling out of this doctor, but this is to say that a lot of UCLA DOCTORS AND admin staff do indeed do and and imply these things and it is not right. There was also no toilet paper in the restroom when I was being asked to empty my bladder. So I had to wipe my hands on my pants, I've noticed that in many offices offices, the soap is all out in the bathrooms too. This may seem small and/or people would want to minimize such valid concerns, but this all adds up when employees are being evaluated for delivering the patient- centered care that we pay them for. Front desk is 'okay', perhaps like most UCLA staffs, but I'm a pretty cheerful patient, despite the severity of my physical illnesses, so was able to smooth over some of the front desk's abruptness when she was talking loudly to me across the room to put a Mask on. I therefore had to slowly turn around to see Her, and then kindly had to tell tell her to just give me a few seconds as I was trying to set my purse, backpack and bag all down while I was waiting to be taken back to see the MD. In summation, I like the doctor so I'm going to try to stay with him permanently, but hopefully the office will improve with these things permanently.

    A+ office and Dr. Dr Yao is very knowledgeable and he and his staff provided quality care.read more
