Serge Maurice Tobias

For the last Week I have been trying to get a appointment with this Cardiologist. Unfortunately they kept sending me to voicemail so I was never able to see the Dr. Due to the Receptionist unprofessionalism I ended up in the Emergency Room. I will be seeking some type of legal Advice.

My husband and I have found Dr Tobias to be very concerned of his patients health and wellbeing. He often goes above and beyond the norm to make sure his patients get the medical care they need. When my husband needed emergency surgery to put in a pacemaker Dr Tobias wanted to operate that night after office hours. He is very conscientious and takes as much time as each patient needs to listen and explain your condition and care.

I had two cardiac ablations by Dr. Tobias and both failed. During the second one I had an anaphylactic reaction on the table for which they had to reverse it and stop the procedure as they were losing me. Dr. Tobias said I needed a pacemaker. A friend begged me to see her doctor, so in the interim before scheduling an appointment for a pacemaker I saw another cardiologist. Both he and the new electrophysiologist said I was borderline and did not need a pacemaker and if I needed anything it would be a defibrillator but because I was borderline they were going to work with medications first. It’s been about two years now, and my heart is pumping almost normally in medications. I am very glad I found a new doctor. My new doctor is with Cedars-Sinai, and I have never seen a staff or a doctor who are so on top of everytging little thjng, include labs, et cetera. I never even received a phone call from Dr. Tobias’ office even with regard to scheduling for the unnecessary pacemaker. I’m thankful for my friend for referring me to her doctor as I might not be alive today.

We have been going to Dr Tobias for over five years. He is the best. He knows his stuff and has helped my wife go from atrial fibrillation problems to under control. We have trusted him with her life and he has performed.

I have been going to Dr. Tobias for many years. He has always been professional and kind. While I have had to wait to see him past the appointment time I have credited it to his giving each and every patient the time and attention they deserve which may result in prior appointment extending beyond the allotted time. I have complete faith in Dr. Tobias' abilities as a surgeon and physician and call myself fortunate for having him on my care team.

Had an appointment for 2 pm, but didn't get in until 4:30 pm, and then this Type A so-called physician didn't even examine me, but yelled at me for my doctor not sending over my records. I should have followed the advice I read about patient care, and insisted on a no charge (he CHARGED ME!!) and a reappointment when it was a half hour past my appointed time. I seriously doubt that his medical expertise was anything better than his unbelievably rude and unprofessional behavior. Pass on this one and find a great, board-certified electrophysiologist - there are plenty of them in the Long Beach area.

Doctor Tobias was highly recommended by my primary Physician and my heart Doctor as well, to this date I'm totally satisfied and confident on his knowledge and practice to continue my care taking it to the next level.

Dr. Tobias is more than an outstanding Surgeon. I would go to him again! Beyond office appointments, he was at my side before I was anesthetized, he was in recovery when I woke AND he was there the next day to release me!!! He answered almost every question but gets impatient when you ask the same question another time. Bring a friend to help take notes. The two office nurses I had are outstanding. Overall rating is due to his office process. I have very little use for the rest of the office staff. Appointments were often changed or I was left to wait for hours in the lobby. The person who did the echo test is rude. The person who gets insurance approvals did not return calls and told me an untruth.
