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.

Best of the best!
Dr. Vaezi and his assistant Monica are a great team. If you find and use them consider yourself fortunate. Dr. Vaezi is honest, not alarming and exudes confidence. He backs it up and delivers excellence in the OR. I was fortunate enough to choose him and he performed a fairly complex procedure removing a parotid tumor. I couldn’t have hoped for a better experience during and after. He’s one of the best in the business and you would be hard pressed to find anyone like him.

Wow! Was my 1st reaction to meeting this doctor. I have been around long enough to know the real deal and this gentleman is the real deal. Very intelligent, Very personable, attentive, detail oriented, down to earth, calm, cool, it was an instant connection. I had many questions and concerns prior to my surgery he took so many of my calls himself. He was very straight forward and transparent about what I should expect from the very beginning, we went over those expectations in great detail, going back and forth until I felt like we both were on the same page as far as how it should all go down on the day of the surgery. He made me feel like I was participating in the decisions, I felt really connected. This doctor's energy is palatable, bright, warm and positive. There is no doubting this surgeon, he is at the top of his game! Post surgery, I could not believe the outcome! I couldn't find my own scar! He hid it so well, my recovery was shorter in duration than I expected, no side effe

I am sitting in an exam room at 12:12 for an 11:00 appt. Last appt. I walked out after 45 minutes. IF you don't respect your patients, they won't respect you.
