Dr Amir Ashrafizadeh

General Surgeon

Here’s a polished, professional review you can use as-is or modify as you like: ⸻ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-Star Review for Dr. Amir Ashrafizadeh My name is Nahid Mashkouri Najafi, and I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding care I received from Dr. Amir Ashrafizadeh. He performed surgery on my feet’s nails and nail matrices, and the entire experience—from the procedure to the post-surgery care—was exceptional. Dr. Ashrafizadeh is skilled, attentive, and compassionate. He explained everything clearly before the surgery, made sure I felt comfortable, and carried out the procedure with great professionalism. The post-operative care was excellent as well; he followed up closely, ensured proper healing, and showed genuine concern for my well-being. I am extremely grateful for his dedication. I highly recommend Dr. Amir Ashrafizadeh to anyone seeking high-quality surgical care and a doctor who truly cares for his patients.

The nursing care was excellent; can't fault it. Special mention to Erin, Deb , Rochelle and Wendy. Catering staff that did me us and delivered meals again excellent. Special mention to Melissa. Melissa went out of her way to try to understand my food allergies/sensitivities and even went and made me a toasted sandwich on one occasion. Unfortunately the quality of food didn't match the quality of staff. Given my food sensitivity and allergies there was very little I could choose. The one day there was fish chips and salad it was inedible. I even heard other patients complaining; the chips were hard and cold and the fish grey. Unfortunately the mattress on the bed had seen better days; there was a very deep visible dip in the middle making it quite painful on my back. Credit to the staff they were unable to find one to swap it with but it made for a very uncomfortable stay following knee replacement.

Dr Ruben Rajan

General Surgeon

From first meeting Dr Rajan I felt safe in his care. His explanations were easy to understand, I knew I could trust him and I was right in doing so. I had a sigmoid bowel resection. Dr Rajan made the whole process so easy. Robotic surgery is amazing. I was walking and eating a soft diet day 1. Walking around the hospital corridors day 2. Home Day 4. My recovery has been amazing. I felt so safe throughout my care , the team that Dr Rajan works with are amazing also. I am still in amazement of how great my recovery has been. On discharge Dr Rajan explained everything to me and I had no fear of his support diminishing after discharge. Dr Rajans enthusiasm regarding what he does really did play a big part in my remarkable recovery. I would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone needing this type of surgery. I have been home 3days now and my recovery is improving daily. Thank you so much Dr Rajan

Surgical Associates Melbourne

General Surgery

I had an outstanding experience with Surgical Associates Melbourne from start to finish. After a few painful gallbladder episodes, I was referred to Dr. David Liu, who provided clear explanations, reassurance, and exceptional care. He later performed my surgery, and I was completely pain-free within 48 hours with an effortless, speedy recovery — I couldn’t be happier with the result. The clinic and reception team were just as impressive. Every interaction was polite, professional, and extremely helpful. They made booking, follow-ups, and the entire process stress-free, and I always felt genuinely supported and cared for. I’m incredibly grateful for the whole team at Surgical Associates Melbourne and highly recommend them to anyone needing surgical care. Their compassion, efficiency, and expertise made a difficult time so much easier.

Northern Endoscopy Centre

Gastroenterology

I have been to Northern Endoscopy Centre 3 times now for colonoscopy and endoscopy operations over the years and for me, it has always been such a very professional, friendly, caring experience. Even though I was a little apprehensive at first, Dr Satha ( as I was told everyone affectionately calls him ), Dr Daniel Morcombe, my anaesthetist, and the wonderful team of nurses and receptionists made me feel totally at ease. There were multiple checks on my wrist band at every stage of the admission to make sure all details matched their procedural paperwork , and I can honestly say that after my first visit years ago , I have felt relatively no anxiety before an operation there since !! Thank you all for your professionalism, skill and care . An early Christmas present for me to hopefully be able to enjoy my Christmas meal 🎄😃

Dr David S Liu

General Surgeon

I recently saw Dr. David Liu after experiencing several episodes of severe gallbladder pain. From the very first appointment, he was thorough, reassuring, and clearly an expert in his field. He later performed my gallbladder surgery, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Within 48 hours I was completely pain-free, and my recovery was effortless and incredibly fast. Dr. Liu’s skill, professionalism, and genuine care made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and uncomplicated. I am extremely grateful and would highly recommend Dr. David Liu to anyone needing surgical care. He truly made all the difference.

I was 14 minutes late for my appt. The secretary informed me I was later than 10 minutes, this being the ceiling.😢 I literally begged of her to let m in - frozen shoulder . I had tears spring to my eyes when she allowed me to enter - I was overwhelmed as I have a fractured T12 - thank goodness I had a really lovely lady who showed understanding - I didn’t tell her of my T12only of my poor old shoulder !! Thank you again lovely lady, Jennifer Connolly P.S re the type of treatment I received P3 - had a scan & a cortisone injection- not really sure of correct terminology 😝

I'm a very grateful to Dr. Robert Whitfield for now I'm feeling so much better and my life is almost back to normal. Thank you Dr. Robert Whitfield

Retina & Macula Specialists - Miranda

Ophthalmology

Always friendly staff. Initial checks usually completed in a timely manner, however there is often a longer wait to see the specialist themselves. (More than enough time to maximise action of those eye dilation drops) I actually don’t mind the wait, as when you do see the Dr you don’t feel rushed, and they take the time to fully explain everything, and answer any questions. That focus on service and care in the appointment makes up for any extra waiting time.

Dr Thomas Sweeney

General Surgeon

I am consistently impressed by Dr. Thomas Sweeney’s practice. He combines deep expertise with genuine compassion, ensuring that every consultation is thorough and thoughtful. I feel heard and supported, and I appreciate his commitment to staying at the forefront of medical advancements so I receive the best evidence-based care. The practice itself is professional, efficient, and welcoming, making every visit a positive experience.

Wait time was minimal. Procedure went well, although I did wait, what I thought was, a long time motionless which was very irritating for my tennis elbow which I am suffering with at the moment. I believe there was an unforeseen event which delayed my procedure, which I fully understand needed to be attended to. The lovely staff did come back a couple of tlmes to check on me which I appreciated

Retina & Macula Specialists - Hurstville

Ophthalmology

From the time I walked into the reception the staff were very helpful and happy, the lovely lady who took my patch was great and explained things very well unfortunately did not get her name, Doctor Chilov was great he explains everything well from the time I had my first cataract done and my second one and I’m glad he was the Doctor I got referred to can’t fault him or the staff

Dr Shih-Ern Yao

Gynaecologist

Dr Yao made me feel very comfortable with the explanation of the procedure that was necessary for my health. Throughout my initial appointment through to my procedure and my final post appointment Dr Yao provided exceptional surgery and communication with my oncologist throughout my journey back to good health.

I have been to two appointments so far, one with a nurse and one with a doctor. I have never felt more welcomed and understood than I have in these two appointments. My experience so far has been beyond what I expected and I am very greatful for the care and understanding I have received. Thank you

Dr Manjunath Siddaiah-Subramanya

Dr Manju arranged an appointment at very short notice due to an urgent matter. He took a full hour to go through my case and explain risks vs benefits of the procedure he performing. He is very knowledgeable and demonstrates that positive patient outcomes arw his priority.

Dr Scott Tulloch

My experience with Scott and his team has been fantastic. I felt well supported and informed throughout the whole process. Joint reconstruction went flawlessly from my perspective. His team went above and beyond to cater for me and I am really appreciative of them.
