Dr. Paul Aram Kedeshian, MD

Condescending and patronizing to young female patients, tried to intimidate without providing treatment

Chose another doctor.

I had two surgeries done on my tongue by Dr. Kedeshian. His manner in the lead up to the surgery was good and for the first couple of follow ups, he was very nice. The last time I saw Dr. Kedeshian was for a follow up that he recommended I schedule. In the examination room, Dr. Kedeshian was wearing surgery scrubs and informed me that he was not an "aches and pains" doctor. He was a surgeon and he was there to "cut". I was appalled. If he didn't want to see me, he should not have scheduled the follow up visit. To describe his role as being there to "cut" is really bothersome. I would never recommend Dr. Kedeshian to anyone for any type of treatment.

Terrible experience. Total waste of my time. I am really surprised he works at UCLA, because they usually have excellent standards. I saw him several times, but he failed to treat my problem, and finally saw another dr, who found the problem immediately. Do yourself a favor and pick ANY OTHER Ear, Nose and Throat Dr. at UCLA, instead of Dr. Kedeshian.

Dr. Kedeshian, performed a rhinoplasty during a sinus surgery. The sinus surgery turned out to be unnecessary as the blockage was due to a closed septum on one side. The closed septum was repaired but the tip of the nose was altered without consent or need and actually appears disfigured. Very unethical!

Had a horrible experience with this doctor. The surgery was done on the wrong side of my nose (use your magic marker to mark the surgery side if you trust your nose to this doctor). No accountability whatsoever. The second and third opinion doctors were shocked when they saw the outcome.

Dr. Kedeshian is a phony. He is a poor surgeon with a public letter of reprimand on the California medical board website. stay away

not happy with his attitude. not a good physician

Perhaps he was having a bad day. Perhaps I was. All I know is that I found this individual to be condescending and unhelpful. I certainly would not visit him again.

Before my surgery and right after my surgery he was a wonderful doctor. He was caring, explained everything, and had great followup. however, when I went back for my 6 month follow up after my surgery, he was terrible. He acted like since I no longer needed surgery, he was wasting his time talking to me. I was so shocked at his behavior, I didn't know what to say. He brushed me off, and told me to another type of doctor since what he done was good, and he wasn't there to do follow up with me, even though the problems I know have happened after the surgery. he is a great surgeon, but as far as follow up, he is awful. Prior to my last visit with him, I would have highly recommended him, but after this last visit, I wouldn't recommend him at all.
