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.

Rapid diagnoisis which was vindicated and led to full resolution within a week after several weeks of misery.

Dr. Voskanian is a knowledgeable, experienced and competent physician. She explained the procedure and the basis for it well, reviewed x-rays in a lay-person manner, was pleasant and well-mannered.

I truly can not believe the negative reviews.
I have been to a number of Orthopidic doctors, Dr. Voskanian is very knowledgeable, competent and very caring.

Not good
I came to see her for chronic pain (plantar fasciitis and hip dysplasia) She was rushed, cold, no bed side manner and at the end asked in a condescending tone “do you have some kind of pain problem?” Yes I do. It’s why I’m seeing you! Never saw her again.

Dr. Voskanian is a knowledgeable and competent doctor, especially as sports medicine doctors go. However you need to be clear on what is really bothering you, and try to describe your story to her and by-pass the medical students who she must constantly be instructing. Also ask plenty of questions. Communication skills could be improved. Her hands-on exams are very good and she will go over your images with you so you can understand what is going on.

Rushed, disinterested and lacking in compassion. Left feeling sad and discouraged, in more pain then when I walked in. Refused to make any recommendations regarding physical therapist (which she recommended as treatment for her diagnosis which proved to be incorrect). Her assistant was even worse and calls from the physical therapist I ultimately found through another doctor went unanswered. Very bad experience that led to a great deal of unnecessary suffering.

Dr. Natalie Voskanian was highly recommended by my doctor. I thought that she was very knowledgeable, excellent steps to diagnose my problem and offer several treatment options, we agreed on one, and I feel great now. Dr. Natalie Voskanian took the time to help in reviewing an MRI to unrelated issue, very kind, spent adequate time, did not rush, I am very happy, many thanks and excellent knowledge again, I highly recommend her.

Dr. Voskanian has crippled me. Her diagnosis was entirely inaccurate and by the time I discovered her mistake, my condition had become chronic and intractable. See another doctor, at any cost.
