Dr. Forouzesh is knowledgeable with all forms of Arthritis! He's helped me out tremendously for psoriatic arthritis and managing my overall health. I have had blood tests for lab work on several occasions and they were very gentile. No complaints here! Best doctor and would highly recommend. Staff is always friendly as well as doctor. Quick, knowledgeable, informative and very easy to get a hold of even goes above and beyond for his patients. During COVID took patients when most offices were closed and then telehealth. He is very experienced and doesn't treat you like another number.

I have known Dr. Forouzesh since 2003. The first thing I can remember about his office was that everyone was so amiable staff and doctor alike. Shout out to one of his hardest workers Liz-thanks for everything over the past couple decades. Dr. Forouzesh has THE BEST bedside manner/personality of any doctor that I have ever known. He is constantly learning, lecturing and providing the most up to date care for his patients. I would say he believes in any approach or wholistic, meaning what ever is best for the patient in treating both chronic and acute issues. It was really hard to get the right diagnosis, but I am one of the lucky ones. I only wish I had gone to him well before as he might have been able to diagnose me decade sooner, when everyone else failed. Now we work together to manage the symptoms of my multiple disease states. Did I mention he’s also my primary, so that makes it easier for managing medication, tests and really everything that’s going on with my body. I don’t dread going to the doctors office ever!!! In facThe wait time is very short and they are always accommodating.

Horrible and terrifying experience
"I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the level of care and professionalism provided by the doctor at his office during my appointment at noon. I arrived 15 minutes early for my son's appointment, but we were not seen until 45 minutes past the scheduled time. During the visit, the doctor was constantly checking his emails and voicemails on his phone and for our questions he provided incomplete responses to my questions. My son experienced a medical emergency while the nurse was taking his blood, and I was horrified when my 20 years old son passed out and possibly had a seizure For the first time in his life after blood drowning . I screamed for the doctor to come in and assist my son, but instead of providing medical attention, the doctor became angry with me for expressing my natural reaction to my son's condition. He proceeded to kick us out of the office and told us not to return. This type of behavior is completely unacceptable and unprofessional, and I am deeply

This office has created so many problems for me. From drawing and wasting 22 vials of my blood, unable to get lab results, he takes non important cell phone calls when you are trying to discuss symptoms, talks about other patients (people that are in the office) dx… the list can go on. Do not waste your time with him.

Experienced, knowledgeable, caring Rheumatologist
He provides high-quality care with compassion, kindness, and empathy and is personable. He goes above and beyond his specialty and treats multiple other conditions of mine since he is so experienced and knowledgeable while understanding complex patients are overwhelmed and sometimes give up. He is understanding and saves his patients time and money since he knows our healthcare system in the US is complex to navigate and not affordable by many patients. He places his patient's well-being above profit which is rare in this day in age. He also does pro bono work to give back to mankind. Dr Forouzesh finds my other medical problems in unique ways with various strategies that's beyond his specialty while making his patient feel unique. Many specialists stick to their specialty only and referral is their first approach. Dr Forouzesh is completely different. He treats his patient as a whole and connects the dots of symptoms and illnesses. He's a rheumatologist as well as a PCP.

I went to this office for a few visits. Blood panels were run and I paid good money for them. One doctor called me during quarantine pretending to be the other doctor. That did not sit well. I had a call from the other doctor later who said he didn’t know about the previous call. Then, I stopped getting updates from the office, no phone calls were returned, no bill requests were sent out, the office never had answers and never connected me with a doctor, they did not schedule my follow up appointment to go over bloodwork, and then months later I hear that The other doctor is no longer associated and they don’t know if he has my records and if I can get a copy. So unprofessional of an office.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I would give Dr. Forouzesh a 12 hands down! He has been my Rheumatologist since July of 2015 after being the one to CORRECTLY diagnose me with Lupus (SLE)/R.A. and APS - a very tricky autoimmune combination to manage. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about Lupus and a variety of other autoimmune diseases, Dr. Forouzesh is above all else very kind, compassionate and consistent in his patient care. He is very hands on, down to scheduling his own appointments and will even call you back on weekends or long after his office has closed. He is a terrific man who really cares! I HIGHLY recommend him if you're looking for a stellar Rheumatologist in the greater Los Angeles area...

I have been Dr. Forouzesh's patient for many years. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable and experienced in his field of rheumatology, but he's well versed in many others.
Dr. Forouzesh is very kind and gentle. His demeanour is fatherly. He really listens, which is rather unusual for a busy doctor. You feel that you are being taken care of as if you were his family. He is thorough and doesn't give up easily if he feels that maybe there could be more to investigate beyond the test results. He likes to get to the bottom of things and ensure that the outcome is right for his patient.
I cannot speak more highly of Dr. Forouzesh. If you are lucky enough to be his patient, or become one, then be thankful.
I am.
