Dr. Balian treated my father for neumonia and helped him with physical recovery after my father being bedridden for a month straight because of a simple surgical procedure that went wrong that was performed by a different surgeon. Dr. Balian repeatedly perscribed medication that all interacted with each other. How do I know? I checked two different websites (www.drugs.com)(www.medscape.com) and the sites reported that 70% of the medications that listed right off of the bottle names had SEVERE interactions with each other. Dr. Balian did not bother to check himself, and therefore had no answer as to why my father was having sever allergic reactions. This doctor is incompetent. Also, he seems to think that derogatory jokes about the ethnicity of his patient and family are appropriate. Patient beware!
