    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.

From our very first appointment, he treated my mother with genuine kindness, respect, and empathy during one of the most difficult times in our family's life. He always took the time to explain every test result, treatment option, and next step in a way that was clear and reassuring. He never made us feel rushed and always answered our questions with patience and honesty. His expertise gave us confidence, and his calm, caring approach gave us hope. Throughout my mother's chemotherapy, Dr. Nasir closely monitored her progress and made sure she received the best possible care. We always felt that he truly cared about her as a person--not just as a patient. His attention to detail, professionalism, and commitment to doing what's best for his patients are truly exceptional. We are incredibly grateful for everything Dr. Nasir and his team have done for our family. If you or a loved one is facing cancer, I cannot recommend Dr. Nasir highly enough. He is not only an outstanding oncologist but also a wonderful human being. Thank you, Dr. Nasir, for your compassion, dedication, and the exceptional care you provide every single day. You have made a lasting difference in our lives.

    Dr. Nassir is in a class entirely his own. I have never met a doctor like him…read more My husband has faced more medical challenges than most people experience in a lifetime--cardiac arrest, heart transplant, dialysis, kidney transplant, strokes, prostate cancer, parasitic infection, diabetic wounds, spine, rib, and tibia fractures and surgery, amputations... and that's just the short list. We've grateful to have been blessed with excellent medical care over the years, but we have never encountered a physician like Dr. Nassir. We were referred to him after more than 20 medical visits in a single month. My immunosuppressed husband had developed an aggressive squamous cell carcinoma that went from a tiny pimple to a 5 cm x 4 cm x 2 cm thick blackened, mushroom‑like mass on his right temple, extending under the skin to a large lump at his parotid gland and into the lymph nodes in his neck. After consultations at three premier medical centers, we were left with little hope. We were preparing to go home and make the best of what we thought would be his final days. At a last visit with my husband's long‑time primary care doctor--someone we trust implicitly--he told us, "Not all the best doctors are at the premier medical centers," and said he knew the best oncologist in the area. He texted Dr. Nassir, explained the situation, and Dr. Nassir told us to come in at 9 AM THE NEXT MORNING. Not in two weeks. Not when convenient. The next day. At that first visit, Dr. Nassir spent TWO FULL HOURS with us. He carefully reviewed my husband's extensive medical history and every test and consultation from the previous month. While we sat in his office, he called multiple physicians--including two who had already seen my husband and two nationally recognized experts. Every one of them picked up the phone. His assistant, Jose, worked seamlessly beside him, taking notes, pulling records, and preparing referrals in real time. What would normally take weeks happened in a single visit. By the end of that visit, Dr. Nassir had a clear plan: urgent surgery, followed by concurrent radiation and chemotherapy. For the first time in weeks, we felt the fog lift. We left knowing exactly what needed to happen and who needed to be involved--including a radiation oncologist who has since been repeatedly confirmed to be the best in his field. Throughout that visit, staff members quietly stepped in with urgent issues from other patients. Each time, Dr. Nassir gave them his full attention, then returned to us without missing a beat. The new‑patient paperwork had warned that wait times could be long. After that day, I knew I would never complain. If I ever wait to see him, it's because he is giving someone else the same life‑saving attention he gave us. Since that February appointment, my husband has undergone successful surgery and is now nearing the end of a seven‑week treatment plan--five days a week of radiation at Cedars‑Sinai and two days a week at Dr. Nassir's nearby Cancer Care Institute (chemotherapy, IV fluids, labs, and nurse practitioner consultations). He is doing well, and we are hopeful he will beat this cancer. At the very least, we now have more time--time for his two young grandchildren to truly know and remember their grandpa. The entire staff has been exceptional. * Sona, the office manager, knows us personally and creates a supportive environment. * Rosanna and Nana, the chemo nurses, are skilled and attentive. * Mark and Madeleine, the nurse practitioners, ensure every concern is addressed and reviewed with Dr. Nassir. * The front office team is constantly busy yet always available and kind. I would not hesitate for a moment to refer any friend or family member facing cancer to Dr. Nassir. He and his team are in the business of saving lives, and they do it with expertise, urgency, and extraordinary humanity.

Therefore, I can speak to the actual consultation, surgery and follow-up care. All the consultations, pre-op imaging, and labs were thorough and timely. He discussed options, the actual surgery, and possible complications weeks before I entered the OR for the actual procedure. I had questions about intra-operative monitoring of PTH levels. and anything that could go "sideways." He discussed each in detail so I would be clear going in. One year later, the scar has healed perfectly, my calcium levels are back to normal and I feel good. In the interim, I've had follow-ups and labs as required. In doing my own research, I found that parathryoidectomies have the best outcomes when performed by a surgeon who has extensive experience in that particular surgical niche. Dr. Cohen is that surgeon. In sum, I trusted Dr. Cohen and his team to take care of me and they delivered. Thanks Dr. Cohen and Team.

I also thought it would be good to have an "in" just in case. Unfortunately, my experience didn't go well. To be honest, I have a fear of going to doctors and avoid it as much as possible. I arrived early for my appointment as instructed. The staff at the front desk were courteous and professional. About 10 minutes before my scheduled time a nurse escorted me to the room and took my vitals. When she was done, she said the doctor would be in shortly. 35 minutes later - no doctor. The room was cold, my fingers were numb, and I had to get back to work so I walked over to the front desk and told them I was leaving. The next day I received a call asking me if I wanted to reschedule. I said no because I was afraid the doctor would be a no show again and I would find another doctor. Later that day I received another call asking me the same thing, and I gave the same answer. This time the scheduler told me there were two other doctors in the network at the same location and she could book me an appointment with one of them. Unfortunately, the soonest appointment isn't until the end of July but she said she would also put me on the wait list. I appreciate that she went the extra mile to help me.
