Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The doctor was understandably irritated because I was not told to bring CD's so it was a waste of his and my time.

I met with 2 PA's as well as DR ESMAILIAN and they (all 3) were extremely professional & through, they covered everything and took plenty of time to answer all my questions and that made me decide that I was getting my surgery done at Cedars with DR. ESMAILIAN

Dr. Esmailian and his team were great. At a time when I was dealing with the stressful situation of a pending major heart surgery, they were professional, efficient and very personally engaging. In fact, while I was sitting in the waiting room trying to decide on a specific surgery date, Dr. Esmailian personally came out to find me and my wife to help us decide on our plan. What a great act of compassion from a very busy doctor.

Life Saver. Period.
Dr. Esmailian came into our lives like an angel and a superhero at a moment's notice and saved my father's life. I have never been around a more knowledgeable, confident and reassuring doctor in my life and I owe our family's current happiness and stability to the excellent care he took of my dad. Dr. Esmailian is known to take on the most challenging of heart procedures, and despite my dad having a complex quad heart bypass surgery about a week ago, he is now home comfortable and we here all have tears of joy. I am forever grateful to Dr. Esmailian and his wonderful team.

An excellent surgeon who makes split second difficult medical decisions based on his own opinion and incredible surgical ability. Not only he saved my life but he did it in a very supportive and humble way, leaving no unanswered questions with constant reassurance and collaboration with everybody involved.

GETTY – Aug 28, 2020

Dr. Esmailian provided life extending and life quality enhancing aortic valve replacement surgery on April 16th, 2019. Dr. Esmailian has amazing surgical skill technique. The quality of life has improved dramatically. I was always well conditioned and fit but the month prior to surgery my exercise capacity was severely diminished. Now, almost a year later I never imagined feeling so incredible. I actually felt great 2 months post op but now it feels incredible like I never even had a major surgery. I have such gratitude to Dr. Esmailian and the entire team at Cedar Sinai. What a wonderful team. Thank you guys!
