I have been a patient of Dr. Gholami for years. He is courteous, cheerful and most of all a very competent professional. He may be one of the best urologists and surgeons in the USA. His diagnosis and treatment of me is accurate and has brought me comfort and improved my quality of life. In addition I credit his surgical skill with saving my son's life. He performed a complete kidney removal (advanced cancer).

I would recommend Dr. Gholami for any urological procedure. He gives you all the risks and benefits to surgery. He walks you through every step of the way, informing you of what to expect. His demeanor is professional, courteous and friendly. The surgery proceeded exactly as expected. His P.A. Kristi Leer was excellent as well. We could not have asked for a better surgical experience!

Prostate cancer-any kind of cancer- is scary. You need to surround yourself with a team that knows the process and options. I have always been satisfied with Dr. Gholami and his team.

About 2 years ago, I was diagnosed with prostate cancer following a biopsy. Dr. Gholami was very reassuring, and sympathetic, in answering all my questions and discussing all of the options. We agreed the best plan of attack would be surgery and complete removal. As nervous as I was, Dr. Gholami and his team walked me through every step, explaining what to expect, and continued to answer all my questions and concerns. The surgery went exactly as they had described and recovery was equally uneventful. Now, 18 months later, with each follow-up visit, the office staff remembers me and sincerely wants to know how Im doing. They greet me as family and Dr. Gholami continues to spend the time during the visit to be sure my questions are fully answered.I have complete confidence in Dr. Gholami, his team and office staff, and would (and have) recommend him to anyone facing this difficult decision.

Dr. Gholami was very professional, quick to reassure me and my family and very caring. He explained what he found with the tests and the plan to treat and cure the cancer. He seemed truly concerned for my health. He answered my questions even if I asked the same question several times. His follow-up treatment is very thorough.I would recommend Dr. Gholami to anyone concerned with prostate cancer. He saved my life.
