I cannot express how much my experience on the day of my surgery was enhanced by having the most caring and warm anesthesiologist one could possibly hope for. I had never had surgery before and didn't know what to expect, but my anesthesiologist, Dr Laleh Jalilian, was immensely gracious and kind and quickly was able to tell that I was very nervous. She immediately put me and my husband at ease with her kind words of support, and when she left to go check on the OR room, my husband said he felt very good putting my life in her hands. She came by after my surgery to check in on me in the surgical recovery room and to ask me how her experience went, and I told her having her on my surgical team made all the difference. UCLA maintains its outstanding reputation by having exceptional doctors like her- I'm so pleased with the fantastic care I have received at UCLA with doctors like Dr Jalilian.
