Its a blessed for me to find this angle in this wold. It is not easy to find a doctor who considers the patient more than her own benefits and spends time for the patient with all her heart. Most of my family work in medical setting and i seldomly see a doctor sornd that much time for each of her patient. Dr. Sam is not just a doctor, but she is a a real human being who treats her patients like her as she treat her friends and family. She is very knowledgeable with a real long time hands on practice. I do recommend her to anyone. If you are looking for a real doctor in 21 century, she is the one!

Dr. Saam treats both of my grandparents (80yr & 90). She is a phenomenal doctor and person. She is patient, caring, profesional and listens to the individual's concerns. Never rushes you. She goes above and beyond to help care for her patients. I'm so grateful that both my grandparents have an amazing doctor! Thank you Dr Saam!

It is not easy to find a doctor who considers the patient more than her own benefits and spends time for the patient with all her heart. Dr. Sam is not just a doctor, but she is a strong woman, a kind angel and a real human being who treats her patients like her own family. She is very knowledgeable and skilled in her work, her staffs are very friendly and polite, well trained and very organized, Ms. Sahel is very kind, loving and skilled in managing things. She plays a very big role in communication matters. I think she is an exceptional manager and a great asset! Ms. Parisa is very patient and caring,We are very lucky that after many years we found a doctor that we can trust and be sure that we are in a good hands, every time I want to go to Dr. Saam's office, I am very excited and happy because I will return home with a lot of good memories!! Cheers to Dr. Saam and her wonderful staff!!!

Dr. Shida Saam has been my PCP for many years. She has always tried to treat us with courtesy, expertise and kindness. She has a sence of humor to make petients comfortable during the appiontmets. She has a very professional community of physicians for referrals to help patients to access to the best evaluation and treatment. I highly recomed her to be your PCP.In addition, I appreciate Dr. Shida to respect to the customer's comments and have changed the office staffs to make the patients more happy and conveniece.

I think she likes to collect paychecks but I don't think she likes to work, because she had her assistant do most of the work, and the assistant does not have an MD. Buyer beware. I went in 2019 but thought I had left a review then. The high number of five star ratings looks suspicious to me also. Take a look at all of the one star ratings. (p.s. Her response below is because this is my pen name. And there's no point in discussing anything since I obviously would never go back.)

I think she likes to collect paychecks but I don't think she likes to work, because she had her assistant do everything, and the assistant does not have an MD and actually provided hazardous false information to me regarding my blood tests. Buyer beware. I went in 2019 but thought I had left a review then. The high number of five star ratings looks suspicious to me also. Take a look at all of the one star ratings.

I have been going to Dr. Shida Saam for many years, Not only has she taken great care of my health, but she is lovely to speak with at every appointment. It's really rare to find a doctor that combines such personal touches and care for a patient. I highly recommend becoming her patient!

I've been going to Dr. Saam's office for a few years now and have received quality care and service. Professional and I really like having the on site phlebodomist vs having to wait at a lab.

Never go there! They don't have any people manners. If you love your child and want them to have good care don't bring them to this place.

I was a patient for a few months, horrible experiences multiple times. They had the hardest time getting my medical documents from a prior doctor and would give me different excuses every time I’d call to confirm, then they ended up telling me they’d received them just for someone else to later say they haven’t. Similar story later on when I wanted to be referred for a dermatologist, a robot called me leaving a voicemail with the approval/doctors name yet the name was completely non understandable no matter how many times me and others listened to it. I wasn’t able to place the appointment since I didn’t have a name and I called over 6 times within 2 weeks just to get a name but to have someone different say they’d take care of it but never have anyone call back. It’s like pulling teeth trying to get them to help you at all, and when you try to be proactive about it they get an attitude with you. Doctor isn’t the most detailed as one would wish their doctor would be, kinda just comes and goes + careless. Super unprofessional, ended up changing primary doctors all together. Please do yourself a favor and stay far away from this doctor office

Perhaps the MOST unorganized medical office in the whole America continent. I used to be their patient many years ago and switched to a different doctor because of their unorganized operation, but my other family members have been going to this office lately and they’re still getting the same basic and ridiculous issues with scheduling, sending lab orders to the lab and etc. The staff are rude, despite their fake smile, and unbelievably UNORGANIZED. Unless you have to see this particular doctor, you will disrespect yourself if you opt this medical facility. I would give them negative starts if I could.UNORGANIZED, UNORGANIZED, UNORGANIZED is all I can provide as the conclusion of my feedback.

I am going to switch to another doctor just because of the worse customer service I have ever seen. Since last year this is the third time that front desk staff made me a hard time by being rude and careless about patient concerns. They are very rude and not responsible at all. I called to make an appointment and explain that I have a paper work that needs to be signed by doctor. Negin at the front desk answered my phone and she just said dr is not available until July 21st and when I was trying to find a way to solve the problem she said we are not urgent care and we don’t care about your concerns. I called again and they all refused me to be able to talk with dr Saam and office manager also tried to support Negin and other staff and they hung up phone on me three times. I got nervous just because of front desk staff behavior and how they are unprofessional. I will go ahead and report the problem to the insurance resolution office.

Very concerned. My son is a new patient and we did have a positive office visit. The problem was with getting his medication and the front desk staff. The staff did not process the paperwork in a timely matter and when I tried to follow up with them the office staff was very rude. I tried to get his medication 3 different times at the pharmacy and the paperwork was not completed by the office. When I called each time I was told it was resolved. When I called the 4th time from the pharmacy I was hung up on. I am now upset, I told the front desk and she yelled and told me she would take her time processing the paperwork if she got to it, and hung up. It took over a week to get medication and when we did get it it was wrong dosage. I tried to call office and the machine was not taking messages. I paged the Doctor. She did call me back in a few minutes and apologized for problem. I am explained the other google reviews on her staff. I still need to wait 3 days until office opens again to get correct dosage. Lets see what happens.

This is the worst office staff I have ever dealt with. The front desk is beyond rude! They delayed me son’s medication by a week because they lied and said they faxed over the paperwork, when I called to rectify they hung up on me. The Dr. got on the phone and yelled at me and slammed the phone down. When we did get the medication it was the wrong dose. We were new patients and we are now part patients. DO NOT GO THERE! I should have read the reviews. Yikes! I will be reporting the Dr. and staff.

This doctor really doesn't care about her patients and does the bare minimum to get paid. She prescribed medication for me that made me very ill, which I later learned should never have been prescribed in the first place. She is a clear example of an incompetent doctor.

Unfortunately I’m going to switch to another doctor just because of the poor customer service and rudeness at the front desk . My son has Covid they never sent the Z pack after I called and changed the pharmacy. I Went and called the pharmacy many times no medication was sent. Two days later I called them, the lady at the front said “ yes I’m going to fax it now “ No apology and when I asked her to confirm the pharmacy. She still had the old pharmacy, so carless and when I asked to make sure that the medication was sent, she said “ maam I told you that I’m sending it right now you van call the pharmacy and check” So rude so why it wasn’t sent on time!! We all do mistakes but why no apology and consideration especially when people are sick??

I hardly give a bad review to someone. But the person answering the calls is very rude. When I asked them to transfer me to someone who speaks farsi she hang down the phone on me. Then I call them again and they immediately put me on hold. They told me they do not accept new patient anymore with my insurance because they have enough of patient. They name is listed on my insurance but they refused to accept me. They said they told the insurance company 2 years ago but still that remains. I wish I did not give them a call ever to be treated this way. Because my mom speaks Farsi I asked them to transfer me to someone speaks Farsi then it turned out the same person could speak Farsi but she refused just because “they did not wanted to accept new patient with that insurance” THIS BAD REVIEW IS FOR THE RECEPTIONIST NOT THE DOCTOR”

My mother Esmat Daneshvar and I have been to many primary doctors in the past. Most of them were careless and disorganized. We were extremely disappointed and lost our trust in the primary physicians, until we found Dr. Shida Saam. We have been seeing her in the last few months several times, as my mom has several health problems. She has been always very kind, caring, knowledgeable, and full of possitive energy. She is the best primary care doctor you can find in OC. Her PA and all her staff are wonderful too. We feel just like home when we go to her office. Thank you for being there for your patients any time they need you.

I chosed her as primary doctor. I had a tag spot on my arm she recommended me to freez it. Her assistant did the freezing she carelessly freezed like half of inch on my arms. It caused a big burning scars on my arm. I had to see a dermatologist and spend money for treatment. They didn’t care at all . I called couple times and emailed them that at least they could cover my expenses. They didn’t even reply me. After couple weeks I still have the scar on my arms.

I would recommend Dr. Shida Saam for everyone. I am 31 years old and suffer from wrong hormonal pills (Contraceptive). I used to have 3 different type of hormones every week.My last doctor before her didn't really care. Its to much for me. Since I am hyper sensitive with it. I tried to change different Doctor.I found Doc Saam and she took her time listening to me,looked at the pills and prescribed me with less hormonal pills. So far it's been working so good in my body. I feel so less emotional. I also have my annual check and the results was fast. I was having vitamin d deficiency and recommended me to take one daily. I was also having anxiety and she prescribed me good medication. I just love her. I live in Corona, CA but I'm willing to drive in Irvine. I know she takes care of her patients very well. She definitely different from of all the Primary doctors I had. She is wonderful Since that check up She fixed and improved my day and I'm so much happier❤

Office was clean and their service was quick. Did not have to wait long to see the doctor. They do telehealth as well so you do not need to visit the office to receive your results unless the doctor needs to see you in person to discuss further.

Terrible, I was a patient here that's why ur untrustworthy practice. stop commenting making ur self look worse. Because someone that argues about it is obviously in the wrong or hurt! But go on with ur practice don't hurt anyone. Watch ur health Dr death.

18:51 06 Apr 21

Becareful of Dr saam and especially her staff never relay messages can't even be seen she's to important for her patients. Even when ur patient has been to the hospital 4 times in one week she won't see me once. Rather push me to the side never contact me and almost kill me watch urself if you go here! I tryed to be nice and respectful but when ur playing with someone's health it's not a joke. I will be reporting her and so will my physician because everyone I've spoke with says she could of killed me the way she acted.PLEASE DONT GO HERE IF YOU VALUE YOUR HEALTH 🙏🙏🙏

I am suffering from a terminal illness with many complications. I have overall 30 specialists with over 100 medications. I google search the best primary care doctor in Orange County and Dr. Saam had the most 5 stars rating. I need a very strong educated and experience Hoag doctor so I decided to choose her as my new primary care. Last week was my first experience going to Dr. Saam's office. I felt very welcome right from the beginning. The nurse assistant and all staff members were very friendly and pretty. I met Dr. Saam exiting her office because she had to visit a dying patient from covid in the ER. Already I had a good impression of her knowing she is such a caring doctor towards her patient. She went over and introduced herself with a smile and shook my hand. She told me she will take care of me and her Physician Assistant will examine me for that day and order some lab work. She will then see me in a few weeks once she has the results. I told her I am a very severe case and have many problems. That I urgently need all my referral to specialist requests and medication that I need prescribed that day. And if I can just tell her about my medical condition. Dr. Saam without any hesitation took me right into her office, listen to my heart , read all my medical paperwork, and told me its not a problem and she can accommodate all my requests. Dr. Saam also assure me that she or her Physician assistant will take care of all my requests that day. Which they did and even went over my expectations of prescribing extra medicine that I need to treat my condition that no other doctors I have seen did. She is such an amazing doctor. The Physician Assistant was also very young, attractive, extremely knowledgable, and understanding. Dr. Saam and her PA made me felt very comfortable and gave me all the medications I need and all the referrals I urgently requested. I have went to many other primary care doctors, just being disappointed at the end that they were not happy taking care of me since I am a high maintenance patient that require a high level of care that their offices were not able to accommodate. Those doctors even had to go home after seeing me and had a migraine headache. Well not with Dr. Saam and her dedicated team. She, her PA, and all her nurse assistants had a smile throughout their entire time helping me even towards the end. It was like no sweat to them. Dr. Saam truly deserve the 5 stars rating and is the best primary care physician in OC. I highly recommend my friends and family members to her.

I took my daughter to Dr. Saam's office and we were treated with the utmost respect and courtesy. Dr. Saam listened gracefully to the symptoms that my daughter was having and helped refer her to another field of expertise. This was the first step we had taken to get some help with Anxiety Issues and other related challenges…..it was nice that Dr. Saam was not judgmental or opinionated, when hearing my daughter only slightly tell a bit of her story and how she had come to decision to get some help. As a single mother trying to wear both hats in parenting, this was helpful that Dr. Saam remained objective through the visit, without knowing the full story. Keep up the great work!

IF I COULD I WOULD GIVE A ZERO. SHE AS A PHYSICIAN AND HER EMPLOYEE TEAM ARE THE WORST I HAVE EVER MET. Honestly, I am not a person who would usually write a complaint but I must help everyone else who is trying to get a true review of this physician. As an Iranian person, I was looking for a bilingual physician and I finally came upon Dr.Saam (however I see now that she doesn't even care about her Iranian compatriot and does not take care of her responsibilities professionally). I tried booking an appointment but they said they DO NOT accept our insurance and we had to go through an ENTIRE process to change the insurance to a one that they would accept. After changing our insurance, we requested to see Dr.Saam herself at the appointment we made because we needed a doctor's help, however, her assistant showed up instead. After that appointment 9 months ago, we tried to make an appointment with the ACTUAL doctor but they said only emergencies. We said OK once again and made an appointment with her on a day she can visit. Today the day of the appointment, she called two hours before our time with her and SHE CANCELLED IT because a check-up was not an emergency and just a regular check-up even though she knew we made an appointment for a checkup weeks ago. This physician does not care about her patient's health, but only MONEY/PAYCHECK. She has no respect for her community and I am very DISAPPOINTED.
