I have to agree about Dr. Minassian. Dr. Sherif recommended him to me when I wanted to get checked for endometriosis. I was surprised at how thorough he was and how he went through all of the different options without pressuring me to do anything.

I even think of Dr. Minassian when I have to get treatments that my other doctors tell me to get. Recently, I went to get a another opinion about my PCOS treatment from an ob/gyn who said she treats a lot of PCOS. By the halfway point of the appointment, I realized I really didn't like her (she didn't listen, was very rushed etc.), but she did do a pap and called me (three weeks later) to tell me that I need to have an endometrial biopsy. My first thought was that I am definitely going to Dr. Minassian for the biopsy. When you go to a bad doctor it once again makes you appreciate the good ones. I am pretty freaked out about the biopsy (I'm relatively young (28), but PCOS and obesity are risk factors for uterine cancer, and my aunt died of uterine cancer last year), so I'm really glad that Dr. Minassian can do it.
