Shayan Ur Rahman, MD Kaiser Permanente, Los Angeles CA

Worst Dr. I have ever encountered and I have encountered many in the course of my illness. Condescending, does not listen to anything you say, constantly interrupts, acts like he knows it all when in actuality his diagnosis and recommendations were not only incorrect but downright dangerous as verified by another Dr. Stay far away if you want to get better.

He is the most arrogant and condescending doctor I have ever met. He doesn't listen to your symptoms and isn't willing to help.

I don't usually write reviews on the computer but Dr. Rahman really helped me. He deserves lots of kudos from me and my family because since I had my back surgery I am pain-free. I had so many issues before seeing him. He alleviated my fears and I am so happy! Thank you sir Doctor!

Excellent doctor. Dr Rahman took the time to explain my procedure thoroughly and made me feel very comfortable.professional staff.

I don't usually write reviews but I have to say, as a former patient who had chronic back pain, Dr. Rahman really made a difference in my little life. He performed a successful surgery that freed me from pain and has given me the ability to live a better life. I was very scared and very leery of surgery at my ripe young age of 63! But I want to thank Shayan so much for all he has done. My family thanks you too!

I want to thank you for taking time our from your busy schedule to compare, review, and help me better understand my two cervical MRI’s. You helped point out my residual cord damage.

I have signed up for therapy for my lumbar spin and feel good about my recovery chances, thanks to you. My cervical symptoms are a daily problem but, hopefully, better days are ahead.

Thank you for all your help. My quality of life is a lot better today than a few months ago.

I'm mazed there aren't more reviews! I would have to agree with the last review. This was the most arrogant, condescending, unempathetic doctor I've unfortunately had to encounter. He needs help with his social skills!

I had a rare spinal tumor removed in two years ago in 2015. I first arrived into Dr. Rahman's office in a wheelchair and after surgery was I able to walk. This doctor changed my life and I am so grateful! I have some minimal tingling in my legs but I am able to work and function normally.

Thank You Dr. Rahman. You gave me hope and delivered on your promises!

Let me tell you about my experience. Nobody expects their body to breakdown when they get old. I had a a rare spinal fungal infection. Dr. Rahman did an 8 hour long surgery reconstructing my neck and lower back. I had a dreadfully slow recovery, but now I have recovered all function and I am back to a better and more active life.

I cannot stress enough the importance of faith and trust in your doctor, especially a neurosurgeon!
