Dr. Saisho is a very soft-spoken person. I think he is very approachable. I have noticed that one reviewer mentioned the number of referrals that a doctor’s office has to provide. I have actually verified the information with Medical Board of California. Here’s the response: There is no law that states a physician must refer you to a minimum number of physicians.

Dr Saisho seems to be an ethical doctor, he followed medical board standard of ethical practices when I asked him for specialist referrals, he gave me 3 different doctors to chose. It suppose to avoid conflict of interest. Unlike some other offices, might just give you 1 because they are simply lazy or do not follow the rules. Doctor Saisho is not a «smooth operator» when it comes to conversations with patients but he does cares and he listens.

Our family switched to Dr. Saisho because we could get appointments when we really needed one. Their staff is fluent in English and Japanese. My daughter recently had a serious medical condition and he promply returned our calls for advice and directed us when to head to the Emergency Room. When we arrived at Hoag Hospital instead of waiting they were already expecting us. He had called and transmitted all relevant medical records via his computer(he embraces computer technology. He has Apple computers in all his patient rooms). When my daughter left the hospital he reviewed and interpreted the various tests performed at the hospital and also provided us with references and a roadmap for follow up care. You can view your blood and medical test results from your home computer using a medical information service he subscribes to. Very down to earth yet a very competent, compassionate and caring doctor. He was there when we needed competent medical advice the most.

Dr. Saisho has been my primary doctor of many years. He has been diligent in monitoring my health and corretly diagnosed some issues a few years that potentially saved(or at least extended) my life. His appointments are very prompt and the front desk does a great job with last minute appointment when necessary. I would highly recommend doc for anyone looking for a family primary in the local area.

My primary doc… nice guy… professional… perfect for me who hates frivolous small talk… I requested prescription meds from them and they always fax it to my pharmacy the same day.
