Patient Reviews

Oct 31, 2018

My initial visit with Dr. Shafipour was surprising - at last a physician in Los Angeles who listened to the patient before giving a list of recommendations. I had a wonderful integrated doctor in NYC, and now one here in Dr. Shafipour. Just made my follow-up appointment and can't wait to return. Excellent, professional, and cares about the patient in front of him. A+
