Dr. Neshatian and her physician’s assistant were excellent at explaining my issue, the treatment, and in particular making me comfortable. I will seek them again should I need to!
Everyone was professional and caring
very thorough
Impressed with the care.
Exceptional attention and care from Dr. Neshatian and her staff!!
My consultation with Dr. Neshatian went well and met all my expectations. She was polite, compassionate, empathetic and very professional.
Dr. Nashtian is an amazing GI doctor and I'm so grateful she's my motility doctor.
Things went great.
The doctor was very attentive in addressing my issue.
I have been coping with my problem for 9 yrs and have seen several doctors lots of test but this is the FIRST time I have hope for a solution.
excellent gastroenterologist !
Highly recommend this doctor.
Everyone was very friendly & accommodating.
Great communication.
Dr. Nashatian is not only thorough and medically exceptional in connecting one's many ailments and symptoms to targeted diagnosis and treatment but very personable in her care, support and help in furthering patient understanding of broader conditions and how best to redress medical problems! She's the best!
Concerned, cheerful, interested in patient’s well being
Everyone from the receptionist, the medical assistant and the doctor all made me feel comfortable, and that I was a person not a number or $. I also felt very well taken care of and that the doctor had a lot of compassion for my situation and is willing to help me get better. The medical assistance were also incredibly kind and they actually made eye contact with you which for me is very important to feel like I matter when I’m in a doctor appointment. I was a medical assistant for 30 years and it was always my goal to let the patient know that they matter, and everyone that helped me yesterday made me feel like I matter job well done thank you.
The staff has been very good about answering some of my concerns.
Every step was well explained.
Very good.
She is so friendly, nice and understanding. I felt very comfortable the entire time I was there.
Good.
Dr. Neshatian is second to none, and I am so overjoyed, to have her, as my pelvic doctor. I have answers because of her, and she is very illustrious with her care for patients.
Doctor was a new face. Considering a visit to this clinic is usually somewhat embarrassing - she was professional, nice and put out just the right amount of profess/familiar demeanor. Positive about my care.
Dr. Neshatian always cheerful on exam, explains need for certain procedures she is recommending and alternatives. Prompt in TC to explain results & next steps...
Dr. Neshatian is the absolute best.
Explained her concerns and conditions she found. LIstened very well to my concerns and worked. Awesome personality.
She was very concerned about my condition and went above and beyond to try to solve my problem.
As a retired anesthesiologist, I have been around healthcare for much of my life. Dr. Neshatian is an outstanding physician by any criteria. I feel fortunate to be under her excellent care.
Dr. Neshatian is always friendly and very professional. She is an excellent provider and does her best to do everything she can to help me. I appreciate that she takes the time to listen to my concerns and comes up with a plan to address them.
Didn't feel like took the time to understand situation. Made immediate assumptions based on two lines in the patient form. Made some suggestions that seemingly came out of nowhere. Had to ask questions about items that should have been explained. Disappointing compared to my normal GI.
Good attention.
She was great! Very pleasant and understanding. She made me comfortable and that I was in good hand. Very satisfied and impressed with the care I received.
Great care and too much professionalism. Dr. Leila is amazing. I just have no words to describe her. Just had my colonoscopy today and everything was absolutely fine.
I left with no questions, and a clear plan for follow up. I didn't feel the doctor was in a rush, and she took me very seriously.
Dr Neshatian is the very best
All care providers should be like these people!
I have always good experience with doctor.
Very kind and professional, but seemed a little rushed. Perhaps overworked? I had to slow our conversation down a bit to ensure I understood what, exactly, was my health problem. But, again, no major complaints at all.
assuming care provider is the doctor, she is very good.
I feel that Dr. Neshatian has improved greatly in the area of covering all topics that a patient wants to discuss. Dr. Neshatian anticipated my next question. It was the best visit with her that I have experienced to date.
I trust her implicitly. She is brilliant, insightful and informative.
I really like Dr. Neshatian, she is very kind and listens. However, I feel as though she doesn't really offer any answers or options in helping me. I do not feel confident about her diagnosis and expertise.
Dr. Neshatian is an excellent provider. She is very kind, respectful and always explains things in a manner that I can understands. She is an excellent listener and includes my opinions in any decision making when it comes to my health. I really appreciate how much she as helped me with my digestive health.
Dr. Neshatian has very kindly called me to discuss follow up care, and I have returned her call, but we haven't managed to connect yet. I am sure we will soon.
I can't say enough about Dr. Neshatian's ability to help me relax, as well as encouraging me to continue on a path of recovery. She's the best.
There are insufficient superlatives to describe Dr. Neshatian. She is successfully relieving a problem that has been unresolved for 30 years!
I have hope for the first time in over a year
Well I think it was an excellent visit considering the nature of the visit.
The technician, Garrett, was excellent. He was very informative and reassuring about the procedure. He walked me through every step, with careful instructions and compassion. He made the entire experience as comfortable as it could be.
Very good.
I trust dr. Nashatian-she listens and addresses my concerns and questions and at the same time makes her reasons for her treatment recommendations very clear. she shares her concerns a out my health and is able to be appropriately firm without her recommendations.
took all the time needed to go through everything for me. One could not ask or expect more.
Exceptional experience at Stanford.

Excellent.
Refreshing experience with a doctor.

She was exceptional and turned around my past experience of a bad experience with another provider. She listens to help her diagnose the problem that her patients have.
