This guy did NOTHING for me. I need an AUTO-PAP machine and after several months and several calls to his office, he writes me a letter telling me to find another doctor. Well, with the treatment (none) I got there, I didn't have to be told to find another doctor. He couldn't possibly care less if I was properly treated for sleep apnea or not. He never even treated me, I was put off onto his assistant. If he has good reviews with this kind of careless apathy, then I'd say they were from friends, family and coerced. I suggest you stay away from this guy and his office.

I have been seeing him for years. He is highly respected for his knowledge. He has seen me in the hospital several times in addition to his office . I have had numerous procedures done and I always felt like I was in good hands. They were very helpful in getting me referrals and equipment.

Doctor Arora is outstanding when it comes to diagnosing his patients' illness or medical issue. He is very observant and could tell I had a hearing problem by noticing I read lips. That was not the purpose of my visit, but I have since seen a hearing specialist, who treated my hearing loss. He is also very honest and approachable.

Dr. Ashim Arora is a great doctor. I met him at Simi Valley Hospital, because I was in there for pneumonia. He is very personable and his staff is very nice. The only complaint I'd have is sometimes the wait can be long - up to 30 minutes at times....

He is intelligent and focused but his best asset is his gentle manner and genuine interest in his patents' condition. Doctors fail to remember that.
