I did a lot of research on spine surgeons in the LA area and collected a number of recommendations before choosing Dr. Melikian. You're probably doing the same thing right now, so I want to help you out: you won't find a better doctor. Full stop. He is highly skilled, experienced, has an excellent track record, and he's a fantastic human being. He listens, he explains everything, he cares about the pain that you're in -- I've never had a doctor who responds faster to an email. No idea how he does it all. Also, he's not the surgeon who pressures you to skip straight to the surgical option. With his guidance, I made significant progress on my neck pain with PT and a chiropractor. But ultimately, I needed to have him perform a cervical disc replacement for full relief. And the entire process -- the scheduling, working out the financials and insurance, the surgery and post-op -- was stunningly painless. Cecelia and Noor at the office, and the gang of nurses who took care of me before and after surgery, are an all-around professional and warm group of people. I just can't say enough good things about Dr. Melikian and his staff.

I have suffered with low pack pain for several years. I've tried chiropractic, physical therapy, massage therapy, epidural injections, and rest. My pain finally reached the point where I couldn’t play softball or be active and live my life. I am so thankful that I met Dr. Melikian. He is so knowledgeable and a very skilled spine surgeon. He took the time to listen to me and explain my issues. My L4/L5 disc was bad and needed to be removed and replaced with an artificial disc. He answered all my questions and explained everything extremely well. I was confident in him and the plan for surgery. My artificial disc surgery was very successful. I feel like I got my life back. I am so thankful to Dr. Melikian, he is amazing! He also has a wonderful staff and state of the art facilities! I wish I met him sooner!

It's been a little over 6 months since my micro-discectomy + stem cell surgery with Dr. Melikian. The surgery with Dr. M was the best decision I have made. I was in extreme pain with L5-S1 herniation + sciatica, to the point where I couldn't sit, stand or walk much. I saw a few doctors for consultations and Dr. Melikian was by far the gentlest, most patient, and straightforward. He took his time with me and did an amazing job explaining everything, answering questions, and ultimately, on surgery day, making it all seem easy. I haven't looked back. Great doctor!

I recently had lower back surgery performed by Dr. Melikian and I am beyond grateful for the incredible care and skill him and his team demonstrated. I had been suffering from debilitating back pain for nearly two months, which severely impacted my daily life and well-being along with not being able to mother for my two toddlers at home. I couldn't sit, stand or sleep,bend, stretch or hug either one of my babies without a sharp sciatic lightning going down my right leg 😢 . From the very first consultation, Dr. Melikian and his team displayed exceptional professionalism and empathy towards the need to find a solution quickly. They thoroughly explained the diagnosis and the surgical procedure, making sure I felt comfortable and informed every step of the way. The surgery was a complete success. Remarkably, I felt instant relief from the pain that had plagued me for so long. It was like a miracle.Thank you Dr Melikian, your hands are gold!
