Dr.A is a wonderful doctor. He is pleasant, knowledgeable & most importantly he listens, he takes his time, and I never felt rushed during my appointments with him. He is always ready to address all my concerns. I don't see myself ever switching to another doctor. I highly recommend him. He definitely deserves the 5 stars rating !!

I don't know how his patients like him, he is friendly but all the time that I went there complaining with a lot of pain (pelvic pain specifically), he would say that it was muscles... And I had a bad pain and went to the hospital which they found a cyst in my right ovarian. I don't understand why he didn't provide to me an ultrasound before my pain got worst. Also I always asked for a referral to a gynecologist and he would say that no one would do a miracle or could try same things he was already doing.. That's why it is complicated to trust in a doctor like him.

Dr. Mehrtash Amini's response

Hi. Ms. MHB, As you said, your frequent hospital visits and repeated pelvic ultrasounds showed that benign origin. Your pelvic pain cased those abdominal muscle cramps and the treatment I offered you properly and completely treated the abdominal pain. I cannot go to the details of your case on social media, but you refused the standard pelvic pain treatment. In your case, a repeated ultrasound wouldn't change the course of treatment and a referral to a gynecologist wouldn't do a miracle. They would recommend the same treatment. The only difference was that it would take 6-9 months to see an OBGYN. In Canada, we follow the standard of care which is different from your previous experience. I am wishing you the best and hopefully, you will find the physician you can trust...

Outstanding Doctor with the best bedside manner! Dr. A will always make you feel better with a reassuring smile and a great sense of humor. He diagnosed my head and neck cancer and saved my life. He made sure that everything went well with me and has been a wonderful resource for me and my family. He was and is my wife's doctor too. I wouldn't want another doctor for my primary care.

Don’t go! Spends 5 minutes with patient. After a long wait I feel always rushed. Test results not reviewed properly.

Good doctor, poor staff , don't seem to have good communications between staff and doctor. New to me so expect improvement over time.

I am happy to have this terrific "gentleman" as my Doctor of choice! He is soft spoken, concerned with my health issues when I go into see him, gives me excellent "one on one time" and doesn't make me feel like I am imposing on him even with what seem like a "small" health or personal issue at the time of my appointment. He makes me feel like he cares when I go into to the office. Same goes for his staff. They are professional and caring , socially in his new office. In a world where everything is always changing....its reasssuring to have an excellent Doctor who stays true to his professional practices.

Hi is interested and engage as any good doc should be. However, I have had two appointments with Dr. Amini recently and had to wait for over an hour to see him. How can you be an hour late at 9:30am? Very frustrating. I would not recommend becoming a patient of Dr. Amini unless you are infinitely patient.

He is an excellent doctor! I might wait a little longer but I don’t care as he cares about my health and that is priceless!

Dr Amini is compassionate and knowledgeable Dr. I see him for TPI and I am very grateful to have his service. He does run late as he takes his time with each patient. (This is probably why the sign mentioning to not be rude to staff as mentioned in a previous comment) Ihave witnessed very rude patients because they have to wait longer than their appt time. He is worth the wait! Yes, I am really a patient of his!!
