See what some of Dr. Mortazavi's patients have to say.

  • Dr Mortazavi saved my brother’s life. He has more skill in one finger than most doctors! Paramedics said he wouldn’t make it, ICU at Northridge hospital said he would not make it. Dr mortazavi when contacted immediately had an ambulance pick him up from another hospital and put my brother back together. He’s talking and walking almost perfect. The guy is a life saver. I don’t work for the hospital or his staff. He may be the best neurosurgeon in the USA!

  • Dr. Mortazavi is a wonderful doctor, and he is caring, understanding and compassionate. I was in a terrible accident and it weren’t for him i could have recovered and I’m so grateful for him and all he did for me and anyone who is in need for his care would be lucky to have him for a doctor. I could never thank him enough for all he has done for me.

  • We have been very happy with the care and expertise provided by Dr. Mortazavi and California Institute of Neuroscience office. Dr. Mortazavi is extremely skillful surgeon and has a great attitude. He performed a brain surgery for my father, removing a glioblastoma tumor and results were great. He continuously monitors my father’s condition and always ready to do whatever is necessary to make things better.

  • Dr Mortazavi did not waste a single precious minute when offering to save my son’s life, He is incredibly skilled. Has superb education, knowledge and experience. Dr. Mortazavi performed a cranioectomy on my only child, a trial attorney, on July 10 and then a cranioplasty on Aug 3. Every single physician who we have seen since then has praised the amazingly good result. Consider yourself lucky if you ever end up in the very capable hands of this neurosurgeon.

  • I was in a car accident 2 years back and it has been a nightmare ever since. Dr. Armstrong and his team made coming in for a consult easy and explained each of the form and potential treatment options. They even worked with my insurance company to confirm the coverage was there which was a big relief. Dr. A is amazing and made me feel like I was his only patient.
