I again had the pleasure of visiting Dr. Alinsod (for a general physical) as my primary care…read morephysician, and I can't praise him enough. He was incredibly patient, taking the time to listen to all my concerns and answering my questions thoroughly. Dr. Alinsod's genuine care made me feel valued, and his attention to detail reassured me that I was in good hands. I left the appointment feeling physically better and emotionally uplifted. I highly recommend Dr. Alinsod for his exceptional care and personalized approach. If I were to offer any constructive suggestions, it would be to measure and gather more data in-office. For example: body-mass-index, baseline hearing, baseline vision (I acknowledge the existence of audiologists and optometrists, but having basic data for the visit would be useful), lung function/capacity, basic strength, basic flexibility, and basic skin exam. I realize that doing this would likely necessitate the acquisition of additional equipment, but it would certainly help the patient to avoid what may be seen as unnecessary trips to yet more offices. Thanks!

He's very friendly (in a good way) and caring and I love that he took the time to explain and review each part of my blood test results with me. He referred me to a fantastic dermatologist as well. The staff and nurses are friendly and efficient as well. Only downside is that the parking isn't free, but you could look for street parking. Highly recommended PCP!

Dr. Abovian and his staff are all I could have hoped for in a medical practitioner. He has been my…read moreprimary care physician for several years now and has always provided the absolute best care, and I believe, best advice and treatment during every visit and for every issue. To echo the other 5-star reviews, the doctor and his staff have been extremely helpful to me with a variety of my issues. Despite having a busy practice, I'm almost always able to schedule an appt. within a few days of my calling and receive a response to my email or phone questions often the same day. I've consulted many MDs in my life, and it's rare I've found one as knowledgeable, accommodating, and concerned as Dr. Abovian." If you are looking for a doctor whose medical knowledge is encyclopedic, treats the whole person, and takes the time to be caring even while maintain a very efficient office, then Dr. Abovian is someone you should consider visiting." From entering his office and working with his kind assistants, to the cleanliness and order of his treatment room, all the way to the check out process - his office and professionalism is second to none. As for the care he provides I truly appreciated his approach of treating me as a whole, not a collection of potential disparate problems. Since he is a one doctor practice he seems to be able to manage his time in such a way that he gives himself time to think and focus on me as his patient - no hurried review of my file as he scampers from his previous patient in the next room, and therefore no rush out the door to his next patient. That's really nice, and not like the typical doctor. He truly cares about me as a patient and as an individual. Dr. Abovian is a higher standard of health care, and I hope his model is the future of the medical industry!"

If you want a pleasant experience and don't want to deal with entitled rude people I strongly advise you not to use this specific location unless Doctor Avakian takes action and hires professionals to run his office.

I've been a patient of Dr. Mirzaian for nearly 20 years. I first started going to Dr Bracht, but…read morehe was always highly booked, and I started going to Alen. I really enjoy him -- He's very personable, thorough and knowledgable -- it's a very comfortable experience and I was able to schedule appointments within a reasonable time frame. I've been nothing but satisfied with the 1:1 attention I get when I see him, the problem is (over the last few years) just getting in to see him! I would give him 5 starts, but the office experience brings it down some notches. Trying to get a timely appointment now is near painful -- and if you have to move an appointment, it will be double the time getting the next one. My past few experiences have been just that, and I find it super disparaging, especially as a longtime patient. Also, the call staff I find could be a bit more friendly and accommodating. Sometimes I feel like they don't even try and I'm told to go to Urgent Care. I hate to say such things and don't write reviews on Yelp often (especially to say bad things), but the past few experiences just trying to get an appointment have left me with a bad taste.

Additionally, wait times to be seen for scheduled appointments have gotten much worse. Today, I had an appointment for 11am, arrived 15 minutes early, and still waited over 2 HOURS, at which point I asked for a refund of my copay as I needed to return to work. I don't know if this office is prioritizing cosmetic procedures over regular patients, but if that is the case they need to just switch to focusing solely on cosmetics so their PCP patients can receive sufficient care. Update: When I asked for a followup on the status of my refund, I received no response, just a text message with a link to an electronic receipt. However, after checking with my bank, I confirmed I was not refunded and had to issue a claim with my bank to recoup the cost.
