Adeela Ahsan, MD

I have been a patient of Dr. Ahsan’s for almost 10 years and am extremely happy with her. She is caring and very smart! Two great qualities for a physician. She goes the extra mile for you and is on top of everything. Gives me her full attention and even fit me in when it was an emergency (bad allergic reaction to medication) and I just walked in. I know I can depend on her and her office staff. Judy G., Irvine, CA

Waited 2 months to get in to see her for a follow up appointment.
Took off work to be there.
Was called 1 hour before before my appointment to be told that my appointment was canceled and that I could come in later that day.
I, of course, couldn’t come later that day because I don’t sit around with nothing to do.
They then told me the next available appointment would be in May.
Another month to wait.
I asked if the doctor could just call me with my test results and was told that it would cost a fee for her to call me.
Let me get this straight, you cancel on me, then want to charge me just to call me with my test results? Unethical.
The two times I saw her in person she was helpful and kind but after today I cannot honestly recommend this doctor.

Dr. Ahsan is an amazing physician and person. She takes her time to get to know you and truly makes you feel you are her only patient and first priority. She was my father’s physician and is currently our family physician.

I started seeing Dr Ahsan a few years ago when my doctor retired. Dr Ahsan came highly recommended from a friend and she did not disappoint. She is not only professional but she has the best bedside manner of any doctor I have met. She is implicitly thorough in her exams and very caring. Her office calls back immediately with the results of any tests given. I was so impressed with her that I got my husband to switch doctors and he is now a patient of hers. BTW, I read a few of the reviews here about the wait. I have never had to wait more than 10 minutes to see her.

My disappointment is the wait. If you can’t make the appointment time, don’t allow it to be scheduled. When you do get to see her she is nice and thorough but with it being a worked day and almost waiting close to an hour after my appointment is unacceptable.
Also, their office walls are so thin. You can hear everything going on next door. I used to have Kaiser and never encountered that in my 30 years with them.

I have been a patient of Dr. Adeela for 5 years. Excellent doctor, she is hands down the best in town. She is great at what she does. She is so kind and sweet, and at the same time very professional. She gives you her full attention and time. I trust her with my life. She has helped me keep track of my health and found out some important issues which i hadnt known before due to how thorough and careful she is. I have gone in for minor illnesses, some injuries, and prolonged disease management. She is amazing at what she does, and always remembers all the details in each visit.
That being said, however, it comes with price. i have had to wait for an hour quite often by the time i got to see her. And they have the nerve to tell me its my third time im 5 mins late to the appt. You get three chances whether you’ve been with them for one year or five.
Appointment scheduling normally took a week but she still saw me the same day at times, which was very sweet. The caveat is that it is almost impossible to get in touch with her via phone or email without an appointment even if you mention that it is an urgent matter!
Also between two doctors that i visited in the hospital, with over 50 visits in my time as being their patient, the receptionist Edith still doesnt recogniz me. I have seen their employees come and go but in general their response at reception should have been more courteous and personalized. Staff service and hospitality has room for improvement (not the nurses though, they are darlings.)
Dr. Adeelas follow up used to be amazing, and no doubt she is still the best so i still do highly recommend her. But i dont know if she has too many patients now, but i feel the follow up isn’t the same anymore.
She has her own practice in an office room in the Hoag building on the second floor. The place is always clean and the nurses are very sweet, especially Mary.
They also have their own drawsite in the office with a very sweet elderly man who is so gentle at taking your blood. Or if you go down the corridoor there is a quest so you can immediatley get your blood work done. This is very convenient.
All in all, if you dont mind the waits, i strongly recommend her as a doctor. She is worth it.
