Dr. Koruon Karen Daldalyan, MD

If you’re injured at work and are assigned to Dr. Daldalyan, be prepared for poor treatment and utter disregard for your well-being. He has consistently demonstrated a lack of professionalism, especially in the context of workers’ compensation, where communication and timely action are critical. I’ve been under Dr. Daldalyan’s care for a serious occupational injury. Over the course of a couple of years, I’ve had numerous interactions with him, all bearing their own complications. Every time I made a request—whether by email or phone—for medically necessary documents or updates, he either ignored me or provided no response at all. After multiple attempts to get a return-to-work note, his eventual response was a flat-out refusal to help, with no explanation, despite having been my treating physician during the entire period. Due to his unresponsiveness and refusal to act, I lost sleep, couldn’t return to work, and was left in limbo during a vulnerable time. Unfortunately, this… isn’t a one-off situation—his lack of action has been a repeated problem throughout my workers’ compensation process. Thoughtfully worded requests have been met with silence. Thankfully, I was able to reach out to the physician from Del Carmen Medical Center who took the time to personally provide the assistance I needed. Dr Petrushka showed more concern in 10 minutes than Dr. Daldalyan has in two years. If you’re an injured worker who needs timely medical documentation or expects basic professionalism, look elsewhere. Dr. Daldalyan seems more focused on billing the system than actually treating his patients. During my workers’ comp claim, when I needed a return-to-work note, Dr. Daldalyan completely dropped the ball. After nearly 3 weeks of trying to reach him, I finally had a rushed 2-minute telehealth appointment where he barely let me speak, brushed me off, and told me to contact the front desk for the note. However, when I did, the front office staff didn’t know what he was talking about and refused to issue the note without “doctor confirmation.” I followed all proper protocols, remained polite, and even offered to pay extra to resolve the issue. Instead, I was accused of asking for something illegal—something I never did—and hit with a $150 bill for that 2-minute call that provided no medical service. Despite him having routinely issued similar notes in the past, he refused to provide a basic note for my coverage period. I was forced to find another doctor last-minute, who gave me a note but couldn’t assign restrictions since I wasn’t under their long-term care. This left me returning to work without the necessary protections, all due to Dr. Daldalyan’s failure to uphold his duties. If you’re an injured worker—or just someone who expects basic human decency from a doctor—do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. You deserve better than this.

great doctor takes his time explains everything very compassionate
