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.

Worst Doctor ever 0 stars
The worst dr! I cant believe she moved to pulmonary consultants, she doesn’t listen. She dismisses the fact that my triglycerides and cholesterol were high. She just said everything is normal! What?! Avoid this Doctor!

Does not listen and waste of time.
She does not listen and is wildly incompetent. I only hope she someday experiences the incompetence of professional service she has provided so she will understand how she is a waste of people’s time and money. I feel bad that the doctor who trusted her to replace him has such a pathetic legacy. He was a great doctor and Dr Saadai does not deserve the opportunity to step in to his shoes.

Dr. Saadai was flexible, warm and courteous. She demonstrated her focus on my mom’s health and well-being by paying close attention to her prescriptions and mako recommendations to either eliminate or add to the list. She appears to be knowledgeable and competent and I look forward to continuing the patient-doctor relationship.

Dr Saadai took her time with me. She answered all of my questions and responded intelligently to my concerns. She called me in to review my lab results even though there was no major concerns other than my vitamin D being low and low iron. Her bed side Manor is impeccable. She is my PRIMARY PHYSICIAN from here on out. She made me feel secure being that I just left Kaiser insurance and was unsure of life outside of Kaiser. I hands down received a more informed approach to my health. Thank you Dr. Saadai!! Tamika D.

First, my usual doctor was booked, so I was very fortunate to even get-in to see another doctor. Katayun started her assessment by asking about my day. Once I told her how disappointed I was that I had become sick on the first day of our family vacation, she was super sweet & empathetic towards me. She listened to all my Q’s & took great care to be thorough in her work. I couldn’t have asked for a better back-up doctor. She treated me like I was her own son. THANKS KAT !!!
