A short version of a long résumé.
Dr. Maz Ghodsian is the only practicing proctologic surgeon in California to have completed a residency in Proctology. He trained in Proctologic Surgery at Ohio University, completed his law degree with a concentration in healthcare law and policy at Pace University School of Law, and his nursing degree at the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing. He has been published in peer-reviewed journals on subjects ranging from PET/CT imaging in metastatic disease to pruritus ani from primary neuroendocrine tumors.
The practice he built reflects a single conviction: that the things patients are most embarrassed to mention deserve the most attentive care. That means same-day access, honest answers, and treatment plans tailored to the patient sitting across from him — not the chart.
Reviews aggregated from Yelp, Google, ZocDoc, and direct patient feedback. Identifying details have been generalized for privacy.
“Years of being told nothing was wrong, then a single visit that actually solved it. He listened, took the conservative route first, and I have my life back.
“I scheduled the procedure days before my wedding on a friend's recommendation. Warm, fast, knowledgeable without being condescending. I cannot recommend the office enough.
“Drove from Texas multiple times to be treated by him. The office staff went above and beyond at every step. After ten years of looking, I finally feel taken care of.
Both locations are fully accredited medical facilities with the same standard of care and the same physician.
The practice is fully self pay by design. That means published prices, same-day care, no pre-authorizations, no surprise bills, and no phone tag with your insurer to get the treatment you already need.
Insurance billing is what makes most medical visits feel adversarial. By stepping outside of it, the practice can offer same-day appointments, longer visits, transparent pricing, and treatment decisions made between you and the doctor — not a claims adjuster.
Photo consults and telehealth are flat-priced. In-office and surgical care is discussed prior to the procedure. Multiple financing options are available so price doesn't decide your timeline.
The hardest part is reaching out. From there, the practice is built around making the rest feel comfortable. Pick the path that's easiest for you today.
