I had a follow up video conference with my cardiologist to review the results of having worn the Zios heart monitor for 14 days, concluding about a month ago. Previously my doctor had told me that he wanted to have me wear the monitor once more before he felt he could release me as a patient. I feel Dr. Tabbiazar gave me great care and I will not hesitate to reach out to him if I have any episodes or concerns going forward. I appreciate his concern and care for my wellbeing.

He was thorough, he had reviewed my (extensive) history and even my messages to other doctors before I came in. He was extremely prepared and addressed all of my concerns and put in a plan to finally treat a heart issue (arrhythmia) I've been experience for THIRTY years!! This is the first doctor to say “this is the procedure you need for treatment, I’ll refer you to the best doctor to do it”, and within a few months I may be cured of this arrhythmia and be able to discontinue a medication I thought I'd have to take for life. Very pleased overall!

Doctor gave me no extra information when I asked and just said to buy and read this book on amazon "Undo It!: How Simple Lifestyle Changes Can Reverse Most Chronic Diseases" Explained none of my tests results, how theyve changed, what to do, results of ekg. I have never felt so shoved away and hurried before at ucla.
